Pray for my death if I consult demons, Adeboye tells congregation
Enoch Adeboye, the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has urged his congregation to pray for his death if he consults demons.
The cleric’s request came on Friday in response to accusations that he uses demonic powers for miracles.
Speaking at the ongoing RCCG Convention at the church’s campground along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Adeboye said he has never been in cahoots with the devil.
The 81-year-old cleric said he had wanted to ignore the allegations, but “I felt a leading while praying that some people might believe these things”.
“I normally do not pay attention to the sayings of some so-called prophets. Particularly if they are saying something about me. I just ignore them,” he said.
“But I learnt that recently some people are saying that pastor Adebayo is using demonic forces.
“That there are some demons at Redemption Camp. That Pastor Adebayo will consult them. Then he will come and say, ‘My daddy said’. And I just said I am not going to pay any attention.
“Then they put this thing on the internet. And then, while I was praying, I think about three days or so ago – praying for the convention naturally, I felt the leading. I felt there might be some people who might believe these things.
“I want you to settle that issue today. I want you to pray a prayer. And please pray it with all your heart. I want you to call on God that if Pastor Adeboye is contacting the devil one way or the other. That if there is any connection between him and the forces of darkness. You are going to call on the Almighty God. Kill him before the sun rises so that he does not spoil your name. So that he does not lead several innocent people to hell.
“Then you will add to the power. But if this boy is using your power and your power alone, multiply that power in multiple folds.”
