General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has taken a cursory look into his past and declared: “for me me, owning a pair of shoes as a teenager was an unthinkable leisure.”
Presenting a Christmas sermon on Saturday with the theme ‘Perfect Gift,’ aired on his Facebook page, Daddy GO, as he’s fondly called, vouched that, indeed, things can change miraculously for the better for those who accept the Lord Jesus Christ.
He said: “Some of you who know a little bit about my background, know when they talk about people coming from a rocky background, that means from a background of hardship.
“My own rocky background was rock among the rocks. My father was so poor that even poor people called him poor.
“The elders have a saying, when there is hardship for the husband, and hardship for the wife, there must be hardship for the children.
“The hardship rubbed off on me. For the first 18 years of my life, I had no shoes. My father was so poor.
“The day he bought an umbrella, we were rejoicing, but look at me today, look at what Jesus can do.
“He can change the poor to the rich; change the unknown to the known, and even catapult one from grass to grace. Indeed, His doings are limitless. We give Him all the adoration and praise!”/SHARE THIS
