The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has opened up on the reasons he never fulfilled his childhood ambition to join the Army.
The renowned Man of God who spoke on Sunday during his sermon at the Church’s monthly Thanksgiving Service, said he had always loved the Army but his late mother did not allow him to join the military.
Appreciating the presence of the military, paramilitary and other security forces who were in attendance for the special programme, Pastor Adeboye, who cited 2 Timothy 2:3, where the Bible talks about “enduring hardness as a good soldier of Christ”, said,
“I wanted to be a soldier, it’s my mother who didn’t allow me.”
Speaking further, Daddy Adeboye narrated what he was told after he told his mum about his passion and plan to join the Army after his graduation. He said his mother requested that he should allow her to die before he would take such decision.
Nigerian Parents and their good wills for their children. I can imagine how Baba would feel after his mother has made this kind of statement.
Truly, the Thanksgiving Service appeared to be prepared for only the forces as there were lots of uniform people in attendance.
