The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has urged Christians to quit praying against their enemies.
According to the clergyman, he urged Christians to stop praying against their enemies, as only those with great destiny are being envied.
Speaking during the church monthly Thanksgiving Service, Adeboye said: “It does not make sense praying against one’s enemy. If you pray against your enemy, who will be around to celebrate you? The Bible says he will prepare a table before you in the presence of your enemy.”
“We should not pray against them. Rather, we should pray that God will make them repent. When people are envious of you and speak evil against you don’t be bothered. You have to be great to be envied. If you pray for your enemy’s death who will be around to celebrate you,” Enoch Adeboye said as he counsels Christians to stop prayer against enemies.
Pastor Adeboye also stressed how he was shown mercy by God and lifted beyond his imagination.
Recounting his meeting with the president of an African country, and how God had given him so much privilege, he said;
“I went to an African country for a crusade and wanted to see the president of the country. I was told I could not see him. But when the president knew I was around he offered to see me. I was with him and we kept talking. When it was two hours of meeting, I told him people were already waiting at the crusade ground for me. He said let them wait. They have people they can talk with. Me I don’t have. We ended up spending five hours.”
