After about two years of being General Overseer, for about the 39 parishes we had, there was about 39 problems. Crisis upon crisis.
The Supreme Council then used to meet and l had to fast at least three days before the meeting because then it was a battle.
I stood before the mirror one day, l wasn't 40 yet and all my hair had gone grey l spoke to the Lord and He said to me 'you are the one worrying. You are carrying the burden that is not yours',
He asked me the name of the Church I said the Redeemed Christian Church of God, He asked again and again and He said 'is it the Redeemed Christian Church of Adeboye'? I said no, He said 'why are you carrying the burden that is not yours? l am using you as a camouflage, it is not your Church so it is not your problem'.
I stopped worrying and within two weeks my hair became black. When l turned 70, l looked at the mirror and saw gray hair, l asked Him, am l worrying again? He said 'no, you are growing old'.
Whatever has been causing you to worry, in the name that is above every other name, it will end today.
