Pastor E. A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God spoke on “Going Higher Part 61” at the Redeemed Christian Church of God/Special Sunday Service. According to him, he learnt very early in life not to take the glory for anything God does and when the shame comes he does not take it too.
According to Church Gist, he said that when God asks you to lay hands on the sick, he is not saying it is your hand that will do the healing, you lay your hands on the sick and let Him flow through you, through those hands to produce the healing. So, when he hears people say they don’t even know whether the person will be healed when they lay hands on the sick, he just tells them that they are not the healer. All you’re asked to do is to obey, lay your hands and leave the rest to God. Remember if you lay your hands on the sick and the sick recover, you’re not to take the glory, all the glory must be to God. ‘And if there was anything I learnt very early in my Christian life if I lay hands and the fellow gets healed, I am not going to take the glory,” he said.
He then said that if he lays his hand on a sick person and the fellow does not get healed, he does not feel bad because he is not going to take the shame. “If I can’t share the glory, then I can’t share anything if nothing happens. Just obey,” he said. In the valley of dried bones, the Bible says the bones were very dry and God told the man of God, my Prophet can these bones live, you know the rest of the story. The man of God said Lord, only you know, this is a battle beyond me and God said fine, I’m not asking you to bring the dried bones back to life on your strength, all I want you to do is to prophesy, open your mouth and say bones come together, leave the rest to me.
