Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God(RCCG), has reiterated his belief that he will die quietly on a Sunday following church services and his favourite food, pounded yam.
Speaking on the fourth day of the church’s ongoing International Convention with the subject “The Overcomers,” Adeboye stated that his departure would be abrupt and painless and that death does not usually result from a protracted sickness.
“I will die on a Sunday after attending service, eat my beloved pounded yam, and then pass on without any sickness,” he declared.
To comfort believers that death can be peaceful for those in Christ, the clergyman recalled that he had previously given this vision two years prior and was repeating it now.
Delivering a sermon titled “Possess Your Possessions”, Adeboye urged Christians to actively claim what is rightfully theirs in Christ, warning that spiritual blessings often have to be fought for.
Drawing from the biblical story of the Israelites taking the Promised Land, he said:
“In many cases, you may have to fight for things that are already yours.”
He mentioned healing, prosperity, fruitfulness, and long life as areas where believers must resist spiritual opposition.
“Your greatest friend, Jesus Christ, paid a great price to purchase your healing. Yet there is a thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy,” he said, citing John 10:10. “Long life is yours, but the devil wants to kill you with all he has. You must fight to live.”
Speaking on prosperity, Adeboye said “The One who owns the earth and its fullness, and owns all the silver and gold, paid a terrible price so that you wouldn’t be poor. As long as you want to remain poor, you will remain poor.”
He criticised the double standard faced by successful Christians:
“If you make it as a Christian, they criticise you. If you die poor, they say, ‘Where’s your God?’”
