A woman attending the ongoing Redeemed Christian Church of God convention at Redemption City, Ogun State, has shared how what she described as a joke during Pastor Enoch Adeboye’s 83rd birthday celebration eventually became a testimony after she gave birth to triplets.
The woman, who identified herself as a worshipper from Region 12 of the church, shared the testimony during the Friday Holy Ghost Service at the convention.
According to her, she made the request last year when worshippers were encouraged to ask God for whatever they desired as part of activities marking Adeboye’s 83rd birthday.
She said she jokingly asked for triplets because she wanted the “ three” on Adeboye’s 83 years.
She said, “Last year when Daddy GO, Pastor Adeboye, was celebrating his 83rd birthday, they asked us to request from God whatever we wanted.
“So I jokingly said, ‘Daddy GO is celebrating 83 years, so I want the three on it.’ I asked God for triplets.”
The woman said she later became pregnant and an initial scan showed that she was carrying two babies.
However, she said another scan conducted after seven months showed three babies, prompting her to undergo several scans because she found the result difficult to believe.
“When I got pregnant, I did a scan and it showed two. After seven months, it showed three. I did not believe it, so I did four different scans,” she said.
She said after delivering triplets, one of the babies began bleeding from the mouth and nose, which she described as a frightening moment for her.
According to her, she prayed and vowed that if the triplets survived, she would return to the church with the children for a testimony.
“Then I said, ‘God of Adeboye, this was not what I requested for. It was just a joke,’” she said.
“Afterwards, I delivered the triplets, then the devil wanted to take one. One of them started bleeding blood from the mouth and nose, so I took my scarf and prayed to the God of Adeboye.”
She said she subsequently made a vow.
“I vowed not to worship God if one of those triplets died, but if they survived, I would bring them to the altar for testimony,” she said.
The woman then introduced the children, whom she identified as Destiny, Desmond and Diamond, before the congregation.
She described their survival and birth as a fulfilment of the request she had initially made jokingly.
This testimony was one of the accounts shared during the Friday Holy Ghost Service at the ongoing RCCG convention.
