The General Overseer, The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), world-wide, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has called on Nigerians to enter into covenant with God to turn things around for good in the country, saying God is a covenant keeping God and will always honour His words.
He made the call at the 2nd Thanksgiving Service of the year at The Throne of Grace, RCCG Headquarters, Ebute Metta, where he ministered on the topic: “Covenant Keeping God.”
He said, covenant can be likened to a contract binding on the two persons with spelt out recompense for anyone who breaks the stipulated condition, adding that the difference between covenant and contract is that covenant is sealed with blood, and death as punishment for anyone who breaks it.
He noted that anyone in covenant with God would be protected, adding that God will make the heaven and earth to protect him or her and the person would live in abundance.
Adeboye, along with the Assistant General Overseer, Administration who doubles as the Pastor, Region One, RCCG, Pastor Dele Balogun, made it clear that anyone who enters into covenant with God must also be prepared to fulfill his or her own part of the covenant.
Adeboye premised the spreading of RCCG to all over the world on the covenant entered into with God, recounting God’s faithfulness by protecting his children from snake attack that entered their room at the wee hour of the day in the camp, while Balogun said with his 41 years in RCCG, he has never fallen sick and even when he was in the University as a Professor, he was always ahead of others because of the covenant between God and him.
