Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has expressed his views regarding his desired lifespan, indicating a firm refusal of prayers aimed at extending his life beyond a century.
Speaking during a sermon, the revered cleric recalled how some of his followers prayed for him to live to different ages. He said when they prayed for him to reach 80 years, he responded with a hearty “Amen.”
Similarly, when they prayed for him to live up to 90, he accepted the prayer. However, when the number increased, his response changed.
According to Pastor Adeboye, when someone prayed for him to reach 100 years, he chose to remain silent. When another excited follower prayed for him to live up to 120 years, he strongly rejected it, questioning why God would keep him on earth for an additional 50 years.
