Enoch Adeboye, the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has revealed some certain things to expect in the year 2023.
Adeboye, during the church’s crossover service on 31st December, 2022, told his congregation to watch out for more opportunities in 2023.
He made this known while releasing the prophecies for the year 2023, adding that there will be a bit of wealth transfer.
The revered clergyman also said the world will relatively experience peace this year.
Adeboye said, “The weather will be more erratic and will now be very nice in some places but we are trusting God it will be nice wherever we are.
“God also says the world this year will be relatively more peaceful.”
Pastor Adeboye added, “The biggest challenge of 2022 will lead to your biggest testimony in 2023.
“In 2023, the Lord will speak peace to some troubled homes.
“In 2023, for quite a few people, there would be restoration of lost glories.
“Many trouble makers will lose the ability to make trouble this year.
“Few balloons will be deflated this year.
“There will be a bit of wealth transfer. Generally, 2023 is a year of many opportunities.”
Meanwhile, the Pastor did not utter prophecy about Nigeria, as he jokingly referred to the case in Ghana.
He said since Ghanaian government threatened to arrest ministers of God that released prophecies that create panic, it would better to be careful since Nigeria is a neighouring country to Ghana.
‘For the first 18 years of my life, I had no shoes’ – Pastor Adeboye Reveals Struggles With Poverty
Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, on Sunday, December 25, 2022, narrated how he came from a very poor background.
In his Christmas message to his congregation, Adeboye recalled that while growing up, his parents were so poor that he had no shoes for the first 18 years of his life.
The revered cleric spoke during a sermon on Saturday, December 24, 2022, themed ‘Perfect Gift’, aired live on his Facebook page and monitored by Channels Television.
Speaking about how things would change for the better for people who have accepted Christ, the RCCG cleric used himself as an example. He illustrated how God can change the poor into the rich.
“Those of you who knew a little bit about my background, you will know that when they say something is from a rocky start, that means he started in serious poverty. My own rock was rock among rocks. My father was so poor, (that) poor people called him poor. The day he bought an umbrella, we were rejoicing,” Adeboye said.
“The elders have a saying. They say if there is hardship in the life of the husband, and hardship in the life of the wife, the hardship will rub off on the children.
“It rubbed off on me. For the first 18 years of my life, I had no pair of shoes. That is how things were and then I received Jesus Christ. Then things began to change, look at me today.
“Way back to 1969, I was a lecturer in the University of Lagos. A little problem came into my life, the problem that all my mathematics couldn’t solve, and then somebody offered me, Jesus. I thank God today that my head didn’t refuse something good. So I accepted Jesus and everything in my life began to change for the better.”
Nigeria has the highest number of poor people in the world, after overtaking India in March 2022.
According to data by the World Poverty Clock, extremely poor people are those living on N800 per day (less than $2 per day).
In 2018, Nigeria held the position with about 87 million people in extreme poverty, compared with India’s 73 million.
However, the new data revealed that about 83 million Indians have been plunged into extreme poverty in 2022, representing six percent of the country’s population which stands at 1.3 billion.
For Nigeria, WPC said 70 million people are living in extreme poverty, representing 33 percent of Nigeria’s over 200 million people.
