Nigeria’s Next President By Pastor Adeboye
THE General Overseer of the Redeemed
Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor E.A
Adeboye, has said only God knows Nigeria’s
next president.
Adeboye made the submission on Thursday, at
the just-concluded two-day Bible study
programme organised by the University of
Ibadan (UI) Christian Family Fellowship, at the
International Conference Centre, UI.
Citing an example of a highly-placed
ambassador who requested to know his opinion
about the political future of the country,
Adeboye said people waiting for his opinion
concerning where the presidential pendulum
would swing in February 14 needed not bother
themselves, as his opinion did not matter, but
that of God.
“Do you know that if we talk more about Jesus
than we do about politics, God will take care of
politics? One great ambassador asked what my
opinion is about what is going on, I said my
opinion does not matter. He said that was not
what we wanted to hear. I said my opinion does
not matter, because what God is going to do is
what He will do,” the septuagenarian cleric
stated. He said: “When you say you are on the
side of a politician, you are on the wrong side
ever possible. Because politicians never tell
you the truth and you can quote me. Tell them
that I said so. Politicians know how to say ‘Yes’
and ‘No’ at the same time.”
The annual event started on Tuesday, at 4:00
p.m with other sessions held at 6:00 a.m and
4:00 p.m of Wednesday, as well as 6:00 p.m on
Thursday.
Adeboye, who has kept his distance from
making public statements on issues relating to
the forthcoming general election, while
teaching on “Obedience to God’s commands,”
enjoined Christians to spend more time
preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to unsaved
souls rather than politics.
Quoting from the scriptures, he reeled out
nine areas to include: Giving, Tithing, Purity,
Transparency, Forgiveness, Love, Evangelism,
among others where Christians should ensure
they walk with God.
Adeboye contended that if Christians focused
more on preaching the Good News and winning
souls to populate God’s Kingdom, God would
take care of the political situation of the
country.
He admonished Nigerians to engage more in
profitable pastime than dissipating their time
and energy on which political candidate was
good or bad, saying no human being was good.
“Do you think God is sitting down in Heaven
and scratching His head on who should win (the
general election)? That has been settled before
we were born. Don’t waste your energy
discussing this one is good, that one is bad. Is
there any human being that is good?” he
queried rhetorically.
Adeboye said Christians should focus on telling
God in prayers that His perfect will should be
done in February, saying they should also
understand that God could use even His
enemies to carry out His will if need be.
“Ask for the perfect will of God for the
elections, instead of worrying over who will
win. God can use His enemy to fulfill his will.
“There are many of us who want to know the
details of who will win the next elections, who
is going to be president, who is going to be
governor, …just say, Father let Your perfect will
be done.
“What’s God’s perfect will? That if the fellow,
who is going to come to power is going to be
God’s enemy, it will be part of His perfect will.
Because occasionally when God wants to move
you to where He wants you to be, He may need
to use an enemy. Joseph would never have
fulfilled his destiny if his brother had loved
him,” the man of God explained.
To drive home his point that politicians should
not be trusted because of their penchant for
double-speaking, the humorous lecturer-
turned cleric told the congregation about the
story of three characters among which were a
Hindu, a Jew and a Politician whose car broke
down at night after embarking on a journey
and they had to pass the night at a farmer’s
abode.
According to him, “Three people were in a car
and the car broke down at night. So, they went
to a farm to stay. And the farmer said “well, I
have two beds, but the third would have to go
and sleep in the barn. And the first one that
went to sleep in the barn, I think a Hindu or so,
very soon he came and said “sorry I can’t sleep
in the barn because there is a cow there and
the cow is our god and I can’t sleep with my
god.
“So, the Jew said I can go and sleep there
because cow is not my god. But very soon, he
came back and said “oh, I’didnt know there is a
pig there, a pig is an unclean animal to us. I
can’t sleep with the pig.”
“And the third person said “no problem, cow or
pig whatever, is not my problem. And he was a
politician. He went to sleep and very soon,
there was a knock on the door. The farmer
opened the door and found the cow and the pig
standing by the door and they said “we can’t
sleep in the barn because there is a politician
there.”
“So, the farmer asked them “why”? They said
“because by tomorrow morning, we will
become liars.” And he said to them ‘how come?’
And they said ‘because he’s (politician) been
with us for just five minutes and he has
promised us so many things. He promised us
that as soon as he gets home, he would air-
condition the barn, he would give us colour
television…. .’ Do I need to say more?” the man
of God concluded amid an applause from the
congregation.
It will be recalled that Pastor Adeboye, in his
New Year prophecy to the nation, has said he
would keep to himself what God told him what
would characterize the political atmosphere of
the year, but added that “By the end of the
year (2015), many will say “all is well that ends
well.”
