of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Enoch Adeboye, has revealed a short
wooden staff that was blessed and handed over to him for miracles by founder of
the church, the late Rev. Joseph Akindayomi.
Pastor Adeboye showed the
wooden staff to RCCG congregants at the 65th annual convention of the church at
the Redemption Camp, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State.
He said that
God had instructed the late Rev. Akindayomi to make the short wooden staff to be
blessed and to be handed over to him (Adeboye) for prayers.
Adeboye explained that the staff had been given to him years
ago but God ordered that it should be used sparingly.
He used it at the
Convention for three special prayers, including a prayer for God to make a way
where there is no way. The cleric raised it raise up, mentioned a prayer point
and the congregation prayed.
The prayers done, he raised it up again to
bless handkerchiefs which the congregation waved with shouts of “Halleluyah,
halleluyah!”
Speaking on the theme of the convention ‘Halleluyah’, Adeboye said that
Nigerians must stop complaining but praise God in the face of daunting life
challenges.
Adeboye said as long as Jesus lives, Nigerians should remain confident
of a better tomorrow.
He noted that praising God guarantees victory,
success, dominion and abundant supply from heaven.
those who have lost battles in life, those still engaged in battles, and those
who have won battles recently.
“For all three groups, there is need to
praise God continuously – the first set for hope and restoration; the second for
God to fight their battles; and the third, who should not forget God and go
partying because life is full of unending round of battles.”
