AMONG THOSE WHO CALL ME DADDY, ARCHBISHOP WALE OKE IS UNIQUE - ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE.

- Pastor E. A. Adeboye

When we talk about relationship, there are categories of relationship. Among those people who call me Daddy, this young man is unique. Absolutely unique.

For you to know how unique, I'm sure you want to say, "Have you ever had a misunderstanding?" Sermon Times. Uh, father and son, we've had a couple. I will tell you only one because the rest are family matters.

He became an evangelist. I mean, he started ministry as an evangelist. He was filling stadiums.

So I called him, "Sir, start a church."

"Ah, no, Daddy, no."

You know, you know, I have the calling of an evangelist.

I say, "I know." "If I start a church, all these people who are following me, coming to all my programs, they will leave because they will know I have a church." Sermon Times. I say, "I know. Start a church, so that when you go, your wife—I think only one child at that time—will have a base, so that when you go, you have a place to return."

"Daddy, I'm sure you got this one wrong."

One day, I called him—"You don't start a church, I will cane you."

I'm sure you'll be wondering, "Cane who?"

He wasn't Archbishop then.

Ha ha ha!

Ask Mommy the trouble I had to get my son to start a church. Until I said, "You are getting ready for a cane." Sermon Times. Then he said, "Okay, if it's going to get to that, we better start a church."

If we had not insisted, we won't have this place (the Church and University) now - we won't.

So that's how close we had been.

DO YOU KNOW WHY I HAVE NOT CARRIED A PLACARD (TO PROTEST)?

ARCHBISHOP WALE OKE, MY COMMANDER IN CHIEF HAS NOT SPOKEN

- Pastor E. A. Adeboye

And that is why I don't have a long sermon to preach today. I'm just thanking God. Thanking God that my son did not die prematurely. Sermon Times. Thank God that even things I couldn't see, God saw it. God saw this wonderful ministry. God saw my little boy becoming my Commander-in-Chief. Ah! You don't know that he is the Chairman of P.F.N.?

Ah!

At a time, some people were saying I wasn't marching, I wasn't carrying placards. The only fellow who can command me to carry a placard has not spoken. Ask him. Not too long ago, he said to me, "Daddy, we are carrying placards on such and such a Sunday."

"Yes, sir."

He's here.

And immediately, I sent information round to all my churches: "Every one of you, on this particular Sunday, we are marching because my Commander-in-Chief has spoken." Few days to the day he said we are marching, he said, "Daddy, we are not marching again."

Okay.

"All of you, my children, the Commander-in-Chief says stand down."

I'm not joking.

If you ask me to march next Sunday, I will march.

Oh, the greatest prayer of a great man should be, "God, let my children be greater."

So I'm grateful to God.

When I saw on the—was it on the YouTube or whatever tube—that my son has become Archbishop, I said, "Glory be to God." Some of you don't know some of these things. Sermon Times. They are important. I mean, this is a day when I can say some of these things. The gap between a pastor and a bishop, hey, it's like the gap between the earth and the moon.

Ha ha ha!

The gap between the pastor and an Archbishop, yeah, it's like the earth and the sun. Sermon Times. Bishops don't preach ordinary sermons. Archbishops, ha ha ha, they deliver what is called Episcopal homily.

Let somebody shout Hallelujah!

Some of you will say, "Wait a minute, Daddy, why are you.. Why are you playing the clown?" Today is my day of joy. So rejoice with me. Shout Hallelujah!

This 9th Month Shall Deliver To You Your Dreams And Aspirations

- Bishop David Abioye

07/09/2026

I THANK GOD THAT I DIDN'T TRUNCATE ARCHBISHOP WALE OKE'S VISION - HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A PASTOR NOT ARCHBISHOP

- Pastor E. A. Adeboye

And then came 1979. We had a program at Abusi Edumare Grammar School in Ijebu-Igbo, and he was there, of course, as one of my disciples.

At 2 p.m. on December 24th, 1979, he came to me. He was sweating, and just began to prophesy:

"Thus saith the Lord."

Ah I looked at this boy!

Ha ha, ha ha!

And he began, on and on and on, in prose. By the time he finished, he gave me the prose because he had written them down before coming to tell me.

From the moment he started speaking, I knew this is God paying me a visit. After he left, I took the prose like a mathematician. I broke the prose to pieces. Sermon Times. God said, "One, I will do this. Two, I will do that. Three, I will do that." And there were 28 prophecies in that little prose he gave me. I've said that one before. Some of you have heard me say that one before. Of the 28 points in the prophecies, only one is yet to be fulfilled.

And someone once asked me, "What is the one that still remains to be fulfilled?" That's none of your business!

Ha ha ha!

1979.

So, of course, I became a bit more sensitive to this fellow. It's one who is coming directly from God to reveal my future, somebody I have to pay attention to. Sermon Times. So when, of course, he graduated, and he came to me at Ebute Metta—by then I was a little general overseer.

"Sir, I don't think I'm going to be able to work with my degree because God has called me into the ministry."

He was telling me what I already knew.

And then he said, "Sir, in spite of this calling that I'm sure God had given me, if you say, ('Pray,' and I'll now)—okay, okay—come and work for me, I will forget everything and follow you."

So I said, "Ah, okay."

I said, "Thank you very much. You will pursue your vision. Sermon Times. If God really, really wants you to work for me, you go and learn how to lead. It will then become easier for you to follow.

"But if there's anything I know about ministry that you want to know, I'm willing to tell you. But you have to come back another day."

Why? Because I'm traveling.

He said, "Where to?"

I said, "To Ilesha."

He said, "Can I follow you?"

So we travelled. He didn't plan to go to Ilesha.

So I said, "No problem. Come in to the car."

We travelled from Lagos to Ilesha, and it was question and answer all the way.

I'm just trying to let you know why I have to be here today.

Follow your vision. If God says you will ultimately come and work with me, it will be great.

I thank God that I didn't truncate his vision. If I had said, "Ah, what a good opportunity, a graduate," at that time, probably among my pastors, probably the most educated one would be somebody who had a school certificate.

Because if I had taken advantage of him, he would still be today a pastor, because the highest fellow in the Redeemed Christian Church of God is is pastor, but today he's Archbishop.

ARCHBISHOP WALE OKE SANG THE FIRST ENGLISH SONG I LEARNT AS A CHRISTIAN

— Pastor E. A. Adeboye

I got born again in 1973. I was already a lecturer in the University of Lagos, but then I got born again in the Redeemed Christian Church of God. Sermon Times. And, as you might not know, the majority of those of us in the Redeemed Christian Church of God at that time were purely market women, Yoruba speakers. I want to use the correct word: illiterate.

And so, most of our choruses then were Yoruba songs. Hmm. If there's any English song, probably only, "Jesus can save." "Hallelujah, only Jesus can save Hallelujah."

So I was hungry for English songs. You know, as a lecturer in the university, when I get into where educated people were having fun, when they are singing, I only make a joyful noise because I didn't know most of the English songs.

And then one day, somebody took me to a fellowship on the campus of University of Lagos, and somebody was there leading the choruses that day. Sermon Times. And it is from him that, for the first time, I heard the song:

"Down that we may have life,
He came down that we may have life,
He came down that we may have life,
That we may have life more abundantly."

The one who sang that song that day is the Archbishop.

It's a song I never forgot because it was sung in English.
