At the 73rd Annual Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye didn’t hold back! The respected General Overseer came through with some heavy spiritual gbas gbos — and the message? Don’t let the pursuit of wealth take your soul down with it.
✝️ Spiritual Over Comfort? Pastor Drops Real Talk
According to multiple sources, during his sermon themed “The Overcomers”, Pastor Adeboye cautioned Christians not to prioritize material things over their walk with God. His words?
“God is not against enjoyment. But the body you’re pampering and beautifying will return to dust.”
Omo! That part gave people goosebumps in the auditorium. Like play like play, he reminded everyone that it’s the spirit— not your designer shoes or Dubai trips — that will stand before God.
💸 “Chasing Money Without Christ is Foolishness!”
In one of the most quoted moments of the night, Pastor Adeboye said:
“If you’re chasing money and losing your soul in the process, that’s stupidity.”
Omooo! You could hear a pin drop after that line.
He clarified that God is not against prosperity — in fact, it’s part of the divine promise. But Adeboye condemned getting rich through shady practices like lying, cheating, or stealing.
⚔️ Being an Overcomer Is Not for the Lazy
He didn’t stop there. Pastor Adeboye challenged Christians to embrace a life of self-discipline and spiritual strength, warning that the road to true victory isn’t easy.
“Becoming a champion takes discipline. Staying one takes even more because everyone is after your crown.”
Omo this one loud! No wonder people are saying this convention wasn’t just vibes — it was fire for fire
Flesh vs. Spirit – The Final Punchline
To wrap it up, the man of God reminded everyone of the daily battle between flesh and spirit. In his words:
“You are a mix of dust and divinity. The flesh pulls you down, but the Spirit of God lifts you up.”
He stressed that walking with the Spirit is the only way to live like a true overcomer.
