The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has revealed that the global pandemic, Coronavirus that is ravishing the world and has made many countries to be on lock down is a compulsory holiday from God as he added that the pandemic will only subside but not die.
He made this known during his live online ministration from the studio of Dove Media in line with the Lagos State Government directive that all religious gathering shouldn’t be more than 50 people. However, after the 7 new cases in Lagos, the State also banned all religious and social gathering of over 20 people. Hence, many churches took to online for their services.
According to pastor Adeboye, the ‘compulsory holiday’ the world is going through right now is as ordained by God.
“There is compulsory holiday because my daddy said he wants to show the world that He is still the one in control. He wants to show those of us who think we are someone, that heaven is still His throne and the whole earth is foot stool. So if you think you are big, He is going to compel you to sit down at home and not move at least for two weeks. Now the good news about that is this, as soon as He has achieved His purpose, as soon as He has proved to the whole world that He can shut down the whole earth, if He wants, then, He can remove the plague. How long before that happens, I’m sorry, I can’t tell you. But from the look of things, He’s already achieving His purpose. If He stops the plague now, the world by now should know that there is someone called the Almighty. But God says the whole world will have compulsory holiday. So my children enjoy your rest. Enjoy your public holiday declared from heaven. But you have nothing to worry about. You have fasted, you have prayed. I want you to go ahead and relax, no problems for you, no plague is coming near you. You can take the word of God from me to you. Relax, be at peace. I just want you to breathe freely.”
“What makes coronavirus interesting is that it is noisy. It is called the noisy pestilence. And it is making this noise for a purpose – God must get the attention of the whole world. God has declared compulsory holiday and the good news is that as soon as he has proved his point, Coronavirus will subside, not die. It will subside, it will go into the background and hopefully it will stay in the background. It has come and it has come to stay. The next time the people of the world tries to show the Almighty God that they are greater than Him, He knows what to do. But for you my children, relax,” he admonished.
