The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Adebayo has said that God told him great things are still to come for his church.
According to him, he heard from the Most High that he will not die until he builds an auditorium as big as one of the biggest cities in West Africa, Ibadan, for his members.
He disclosed this as he preached at the Redemption Camp ground during a sermon that was tagged “The Power of inspiration.”
His words, “If anybody tells you that Pastor Adeboye is dead, don’t believe them. You know why? Because I heard that God is going to build for us an auditorium the size of Ibadan. Until that is done, I’m not going anywhere.”
With God, all things are possible.
