Pastor Enoch Adejare-Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has assured the people of Ondo State's Irele Local Government Area that their land will no longer be desolate.
On Thursday, he delivered this talk as part of the church's "Let's Go-A-Fishing" event with the theme "Perfect Gift."
The venue was Ode-Irele Comprehensive High School.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, Adeboye chose John 3:16 as the scripture text for his 30-minute talk. It reads, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only born son, that whomever accept Him would not perish but have eternal life."
The revered man of God said that Jesus Christ was the only “Perfect Gift” God has given to mankind, and anyone who accepted Him would no longer experience barrenness, bondages, curses, suffering and poverty, among others.
Adeboye said: “Irele is the first place we will visit after the Holy Ghost Congress. I can assure you that every kingdom represented here will no longer experience barrenness, bondage, suffering and poverty.
“Many people are afraid of tomorrow because they do not know what will happen, but I can assure you that with Jesus Christ, your tomorrow will be alright.
“When a gift is given, you can decide whether to accept it, but when God gave us Jesus Christ, He gave that perfect gift.
“It is left to us to accept Him or not, but as much as people who have accepted Him and will still accept Him today, no more sorrows, no more pains and no more failures in Jesus name.
“And whether the devil likes it or not, it shall be well with you and your tomorrow will be alright in Jesus' name.”
Adeboye admonished residents to surrender their lives to Christ, saying that for their tomorrow to be alright, they must accept the “Perfect Gift”.
Meanwhile, hundreds of faithful trooped out during the altar call to surrender their lives to Christ as Daddy GO prayed for them all.
A mammoth crowd, including youths, the elderly, women, men, pastors, politicians, traditional rulers and people of other walks of life, besieged the programme's venue.
NAN also reports that Adeboye’s chopper, which landed around 9:55am at a nearby government field in Irele, took off around 10:45am at the end of the programme.
