Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has reacted to the death of famous Asian Preacher, Yonggi Cho.
Yonggi Cho was the cofounder of the Yoido Full Gospel Church in South Korea.
The popular preacher died today, 14th September at the age of 85 after a protracted battle with stroke.
In a statement on Tuesday, the General Overseer of RCCG narrated his encounter with the Asian preacher while he was alive.
According to him, “Several years ago, I visited South Korea because I heard of a man who had the largest Church in the world.
Daddy G O as Adeboye is fondly called by his congregation, recounted how Yonggi Cho pleaded with members of his church, “who came one Sunday, to please not come back next Sunday so that those who couldn’t come last Sunday can come next Sunday.
“I said God, so you can do this ?
“Some years ago, I returned to South Korea, I had a meeting with the same man. The first time I was there, people like me could not come near the office but this time, I went to his office on his invitation, when we met, he said, ‘I have heard of you, will you please pray for me ?
Pastor Adeboye looks forward to meeting Yonggi Cho on resurrection morning. According to him, “Till we meet on resurrection morning, rest in God’s presence Pastor Dr David Yonggi Cho.”
