The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said the country’s weakling naira will soon regain its value against the dollar and other international currencies.
Adeboye spoke yesterday while ministering during the church’s monthly thanksgiving service with the theme: Uncommon Miracles, at the RCCG headquarters, The Throne of Grace, at Ebute Metta in Lagos.
The cleric told the gathering about the value of the naira some years back, citing an incident between him and his wife when the church was having its convention and there was a paucity of funds.
“Let me remind you of a time the convention was on. The crowd had already gathered and we had trusted God and told everybody: ‘Come, God will feed you.’ All of a sudden, all the money dried up and nobody knew that there was no money left in my pocket.
“And then my wife came in the morning and said ‘Darling, we’ll need N5,000 today’; N5,000 of those days, when the naira was stronger than the dollar,” he said.
Adeboye asked his congregation not to worry, assuring that “those days will return”.
He added,
“I know you don’t believe me. If the Lord I serve is still on His throne, those glorious days will return. Maybe when that happens you will know that there is a God of miracles.”
Also, Pastor Adeboye has urged Nigerians to trust God in the face of economic hardship confronting the nation for uncommon miracles.
The cleric prayed for fathers, mothers, widows, widowers, among others, for a prosperous month.
The programme also witnessed the donation of foods, clothings, books and other items to over 3,000 worshippers.
Addressing the congregation, Adeboye said,
“The law of gravity does not hinder God from making things to happen. When God wants to bless, no matter the policy put in place to determine such blessings, God has the capability to skip such policies.”
“These are the advantages those who trust the Lord enjoy,” he said.
The Special Assistant to the General Overseer on Administration and Pastor in charge of Region One, Dele Balogun, said RCCG’s Throne of Grace remained committed to its Christian Social Responsibility (CSR) every month.
He said the church was aware of the hardship in the land.
The preacher urged other churches to follow suit.
