The family of the late Pastor Dare Adeboye has said it will never begrudge God over his death, adding that the deceased left a great legacy behind.
Dare, 42, died on Tuesday in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, where he was a youth pastor.
He was reported to have slept and did not wake up and was later confirmed dead.
Since the confirmation of Dareโs death, tributes and condolence messages have been pouring in from different parts of the country.
The deceasedโs father and General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God Worldwide, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, 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.
During his ministration, which was also broadcast to members throughย Doveย TV, he said God was sovereign and could not be queried for his actions.
He said, โWhatever 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.
โWhat 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 shouldnโt forget that both good and bad happen at Godโs command.
โFinally, in all things, letโs learn to say thank you Father, and it is well. God bless all of you in Jesusโ name.โ
The deceasedโs younger brother, Leke, told Sunday PUNCH on Saturday that his brotherโs legacy was his passion for the youth and how he served God.
He said, โWe did everything together, until we got married. Same schools, same everything. We got married on the same day, just a few years apart.
โHe 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.
โHe 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.โ
