    I once asked God to kill me – Pastor Adeboye

    The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, popularly known as Daddy G. O., has said there was a time he asked God to kill him, if God will not empower him with enough anointing for his pastoral work.

    The popular man of God made this statement in a message on the Thursday night being the fourth day of the 2016 Holy Ghost Congress held at the Redemption Camp Ground of the RCCG, Ogun state, Nigeria.

    Pastor Adeboye who is alive and kicking, while talking on the message “Before the Call,” said he told God sometime in the past that if God would not answer him, He should take his life.

    “It is either you answer me or you call me home now,” Pastor Adeboye recounted he told God.

    Pastor Adeboye, who said there is a difference between reading the Bible to write WAEC or NECO examinations, and reading the Bible as someone who knows God, said the more he studied the Bible, the more he understood God answers prayers.

    In his message, the Bishop of The Redeem Evangelical Mission (TREM), Bishop Mike Okonkwo said the youths of the nation Nigeria are very strategic to make things happen in Nigeria and indeed the world.

    Lamenting how the value system of the country has been eroded, Bishop Okonkwo called on the young adults to channel their youthful energy positively.

    He said instead of youths to be distracted by the social media, he urged them to utilize the platform for positive engagements, and take over the world for Christ.

    Pastor Adeboye rounded off his message with prophetic prayers for his congregants.

    The Holy Ghost Congress which started on Monday will end on Saturday, 10 December 2016.
