Defend yourselves, from now on it is fire for fire, Adeboye tells Christians (video)

Pastor Enoch Adeboye said it is now in the hands of the Children of God to defend themselves amidst rising insecurity in Nigeria.

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God stated this during the church’s July 2022 Holy Ghost Service.

The highly respected cleric stated that there is nowhere in the bible where God said a child of God can not defend himself.

He added that “from now on it is going to be fire for fire.”

Speaking to his members, Adeboye said: “Some jokers said Churches should not open for three months. Who is your commander? God of Boko Haram, let the devil try any nonsense, from now on it is going to be fire for fire.”

Speaking further, the highly respected cleric popularly known as Daddy G.O said;

“I don’t want to say much because I know some people may want to twist it but I have searched the bible from cover to cover and there is nowhere in the bible where God said a child of God cannot defend himself, If you find the place let me know. He said that if they slap you on the right cheek turn left, He said that one. If they now slap the left what did he say? When God is silent, do you know the meaning of that, it simply means over to you.”

The cleric, however, noted that: “I am only talking to my children. Only my children come to the Holy Ghost Service.”
