All faithful of the Redeemed Church of God (RCCG a) will commence a 40-day fasting on Friday January 2, 2015, the General overseer (GO)of the mission, Pastor E.A Adeboye, has said.
The G.O also released predictions for the year.
Adeboye spoke at the crossover service held at the Redemption Camp, Kilometre 46, Lagos – Ibadan Expressway, Ogun State, to usher in year 2015.
The referred cleric released the New Year predictions at about 1:15 a. m. before a mammoth crowd that gathered at the Arena Ground of the camp.
The fasting will cover prayers for Nigeria, the world, RCCG members and individuals. Until last year when the churched prayed and fasted for 100 days, the annual programme used to start in February.
The early start of the year’s programme might have been informed by the need for the church to pray ahead of February elections.
Adeboye said God said the world should pray against “massive calamities, massive earthquakes and strong hurricanes and typhoons.”
For Nigeria, the man of God was largely taciturn, noting the need to be careful because of the coming elections.
“Unfortunately, because it is election year, I can’t tell you all that God told me about Nigeria. But I will tell you this: “By the end of the year, many will say ‘all is well that ends well.’”
adeboye, who is leading arguably the largest Pentecostal mission in the world, held the entire congregation in suspense as he gave no other prediction concerning the country hinging it on the sensitivity of the election year. The church, which was the first Pentecostal mission get approval to operate in the state of Israel, has presence in about 200 countries.
On what members of RCCG should expect in the New Year, the cleric, fondly called Daddy G.O. by all and sundry, told the gathering that the prophecies would be relayed to them through their pastors.
On prophecies about individuals, the seer said for members of the church, who obeyed the instruction to fast for 100 in 2014, they should expect great harvest of blessings from God.
He said God told him that 2015 will be a year of dreams fulfillment, miraculous completion of projects, miraculous restorations and a year that will replete with testimonies such that “those who have none before will have some this year.”
The crossover service began with a Holy Communion service which was the last for year 2014 and thereafter a service of songs in which the GO’s wife, Folu and her ensemble as well as the Mass Choir of the mission thrilled the congregation with theme hymns composed by Pastor Adeboye for previous annual programmes of the church.
