The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has urged Nigerians to praise God despite the challenges they face. He made this statement while preaching on the theme, “Let all that I am praise the Lord,“ at the 12 hours marathon praise, worship and thanksgiving tagged ‘YADAH 2022’.
The event was organised by the House of Prayer Assembly at Ilorin, Kwara State. Adeboye’s message was delivered by the Regional Overseer of the RCCG, Pastor Nathaniel Adejumo.
Adeboye said, "People should know the importance of praising God no matter the circumstances we find ourselves in. Whether we are rich, happy or unhappy, ill or healthy, comfortable or uncomfortable; whether the economy is buoyant or lean, we should praise the Lord. The battle may be strong, but God never fails and he has never lost any battle. He triumphs after all tribulations."
The octogenarian also made an example of the Biblical Job who was righteous in the sight of God. Although the devil tried to tempt him, he did not give in to the temptation.
Adeboye also admitted that life is not smooth but it should not stop us from praising God. He said, "The journey of life may not be smooth, but we should continue to praise God.
"Continue to praise the Lord and let the devil go mad, and at the end, you will shame your enemies. Everything that is lost will be recovered; everything will turn around for good because God has never been a failure. God will change the situation. We should make sacrifices of praise to the Lord."
In attendance at the programme was the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi. He encouraged Nigerians to be consistent in prayers so that God can make the country better. He also appreciated members of the church for their prayers which have been sustaining the nation.
He said, "I thank God for the life of Pastor Omorinoye, the founder of the House of Prayer Assembly, and his wife, for living a life of making people happy."
