Emerging report indicates that the family of late Pastor Dare Adeboye, a son of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said that they cannot complain, blame, or question God for his demise, but all they can do is give God glory for actually giving them the privilege to enjoy all He has given them temporarily, .
Pastor Dare died on Tuesday, in Eket, Akwa Ibom State.
He was reported to have slept and did not wake up, and was later confirmed dead.
The deceased’s father on Friday night, during the monthly Holy Ghost Service of the Church, at the Redemption Camp, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State, broke his silence on the tragedy, saying:
“Whatever we have is given to us by God, be it wealth, wife, husband, children e.t.c and if it got taken away by God, all we can do is give God glory for actually giving us the privilege to enjoy those wealth or kids temporarily and it is not for us to complain, blame and question God.
“What we see as sorrows might be joy in the sight of God, I mean His ways and thoughts are not the same with ours, we should not forget that both good and bad happen at God’s command.
“Finally, in all things, let us learn to say thank you Father, and it is well. God bless all of you in Jesus’ name.”
The deceased’s younger brother, Leke Adeboye, told ‘Sunday PUNCH’, on Saturday, that his brother’s legacy was his passion for the youths and how he served God.
He said: “We did everything together, until we got married. Same Schools, same everything. We got married on the same day, just a few years apart.
“He taught me to spread my wings, to soar high, to blaze the trail. He demonstrated what it truly meant to serve with brilliance and class. He was full of wisdom, solid on logic, and gifted with an incredible sense of humour.
“He lived entirely for the Lord and His work, dedicating his life to educating and inspiring young people on how to capitalise on and maximise their faith in any environment they find themselves. And ensuring they make heaven at the end.”
Asked if the family would question God for the loss, Leke, who is also the Personal Assistant to the General Overseer, quoted Romans 8:38, saying: “Not even death would separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus.
“Never (we will not begrudge God). To live is for Christ, to die is gain.”
