General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has made a striking statement regarding how he believes he will pass on.
During the evening session on Day 4 of the RCCG’s 73rd Annual Convention, held at the Old Auditorium within the Redemption City, the revered cleric told a massive congregation that he knows the manner of his eventual departure from this world.
“It’s going to be on a Sunday. I would go to Church for service, dance very well and return home. I will eat pounded yam, then I will go,” he said.
Though he did not specify the exact date, Adeboye confidently stated that it would happen after a joyful church service.
His revelation came as he led the congregation in a series of prayers themed “Possessing Your Possession”.
The Convention, themed “The Overcomers,” began on Monday at the RCCG’s international headquarters located at Kilometre 46, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Addressing the spiritual gathering, Adeboye clarified that people should not be alarmed or question how he came to know the details of his transition.
“Nobody should bother to ask me how I knew the day of my transition,” he said.
His comments were made in the context of a broader message focused on divine healing.
He stressed that illness is not the only path through which people die, challenging a common assumption about mortality.
In addition to leading prayers for healing, Adeboye guided worshippers through powerful supplications on prosperity, fruitfulness, long life and deliverance from spiritual oppression.
Quoting from 2 Corinthians 8:9, the respected preacher taught that prosperity is the rightful portion of Christians.
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich,” he read from scripture to underscore his point.
He went on to encourage believers to reject poverty, describing it as a tool used by the devil to hinder the advancement of the gospel.
“Poverty is a weapon the devil relies upon to halt the spread of the gospel,” he told the congregation.
