Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has advised his critics to thread carefully, saying such behaviours have consequences.
He made this known during his sermon themed: “Shielded by Fire” at the monthly Holy Ghost service, held at The Redemption City of God, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Adeboye had been drawing criticism from Nigerians, especially celebrities and on-air personalities over some of his declarations and comments.
However, reacting to the bashing during the service, he said even though he is nothing and weak, those mocking him and the mission should know that his God is a consuming fire.
He went on to remind his detractors that the word of God made it clear that anyone God will use must be foolish, must be weak, be a nobody so that nobody will get the glory.

Speaking during the event, he said: “If Paul, who wrote more than half of the New Testament, claimed to be less than the least of the saint, according to Ephesians 3:8, Pastor Adeboye is nothing.
“However, his God is everything. Listen to me carefully, Adeboye is one stupid boy and I would prove it to you before I close, But his God is wiser than the wisest.
“Adeboye is weak, he eats pounded yam and goes to the toilet. But his God is stronger than the strongest. Adeboye is nothing but his God is the All-sufficient God.
“So there is nothing spectacular. There is no big deal if you mock Pastor Adeboye. He deserves to be mocked.
“The word of God made it abundantly clear. Anyone that God will use must be weak, foolish, and a nobody, so that only God will take the glory. So you can mock Adeboye, but you must not mock his God.
“Why? Because Adeboye is nothing, there is nothing he can do to you. But his God is a Consuming fire.”
