Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), on Sunday during his Live broadcast said the COVID-19 pandemic will soon come to an end and things will return to normal.
While calling on Christian believers to always pray and promote peace regardless of the discomfort the pandemic may bring, the advised citizens not to relax in the fight.
“The journey to normalcy has begun. Very soon, your pastors will return to their duty posts. I have perhaps one more Sunday to spend with you (televised broadcast), then, everything will return to normal.”
Pastor Adeboye, explained that God is in control of the pandemic and all the challenges it brings. He went further to applauded the efforts of doctors in containing the damage of the disease, urging it’s members and world at large to continue to exercise hygiene and protective habits. “I also advise the government that, in the future when they are setting up their committees, men of God should be included. I am not talking about small boys like me. I am talking about chief imams, arch bishops and others so they can help them with the spiritual aspect of this warfare. I sincerely hope that we would all know at the end that it is not by our wisdom, our abilities, our planning that has given us whatever victory that we have already gotten.
“We need to return all the glory to God because as the elders will say, the rain can send you into the same hut more than once. We need to give the glory to God because we don’t want the victory we have won so far to be reversed. “If you ask any doctor, he (she) would tell you that the most difficult cancer to handle is the cancer that relapses. We don’t want a relapse of this scourge.
“Like I said before, this Coronavirus, by the grace of God, will recede. But, don’t let anybody deceive you. It is not going to disappear 100 per cent. Flu came about a 100 years ago. It receded. Ebola came. It receded. You know very well they have not died completely. Let’s give all the glory to God that He will see that our victory is complete.’’
“God will give victory to Africa first. God will give us (in Africa) victory first before it extends to other parts of the world. “Even after the lockdowns end, any journey outside the country, except it is very essential, postpone it”.
