The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has declared that Plateau State would witness long-lasting peace and a return to its former glory, asserting that darkness cannot overpower light.
Pastor Adeboye made this declaration on Sunday during a special combined interdenominational service themed: “Promoted for a Purpose“.
The service was held at the Redemption Camp of the RCCG in Kassa Barakin-Ladi Local Government Area of Plateau State
The revered clergyman, who had not visited Plateau State in seven years, stated that the devil had tried to hinder the revival that was about to take place in the state, but he refused to be kept away any longer.
He said: “The devil has a rough idea of the revival that is about to take place in Jos; he has kept me away from Jos for seven years, but I said no more. The fire that God is lightening in Jos will not go down.”
During his sermon, Pastor Adeboye cited a Bible passage from Revelation 4:10-11, stating that God has the power to promote individuals from one level to another, even from a lowly position to one of authority.
He emphasized that promotion comes with a purpose and responsibility, all in the name of glorifying God
Addressing the congregation, Governor Caleb Muftwang, emphasized the significance of Pastor Adeboye’s visit, calling it a sign that darkness is receding in the state and making way for light.
“Daddy, your coming is very symbolic. Before your coming, the testimony about Plateau State is that it is a no-go area, but we believe in God that the day of mourning in Plateau State is over. As our father steps into the land, it will be revived, and your coming has opened the gate of brass and cut the bars of iron, and the glory of the Lord is returning to the land.
“I want to thank you, sir, for coming to Plateau State, and we want to believe that the glory you brought will not depart from this land. Henceforth, nobody should be afraid of coming to Plateau State. Those that have troubling us over the years, God is stronger than them, and God will secure our border. This year there will be an abundance of rain and food” he said.
The dignitaries that graced the inter-denominational service include two former Governors of the State, Senator Jonah Jang and Senator Joshua Dariye; the State Chairman of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Reverend Dunka Gomwalk; the Special Adviser to Governor Muftwang in Religious Affairs, Reverend Stephen Santana; commissioners; and other religious leaders from various denominations.
The event was preceded by a two-day RCCG Northern Ministers and Workers Conference .
