RCCG: Pastor Adeboye Renames Church The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor E. A. Adeboye, has officially swerved the name of the RCCG Apapa Family to The Favoured Family. The Round Table reveals that this renaming took place on Sunday during his second visit to Trinity Towers, the headquarters of the RCCG City of David parish, which oversees the Apapa Family.
Accompanied by his wife, Pastor Folu Adeboye, he shared that he received a divine directive to rename this prominent family within the RCCG community.
While preaching from 2 Kings 2:19-24, Pastor Adeboye articulated the need for the Apapa Family to experience a new outpouring of grace, symbolized by the introduction of salt and a new cruse.
He prioritized that the salt represents God’s restoration of flavor and vitality, the expulsion of tartness, the prevention of demonic influences, and the promotion of swift improvement.
The new cruse, he expounded, symbolizes a new commencement, the recovery of defunct glory, and a renewed commitment to reignite spiritual passion.
“If anyone had once been hot and had grown lukewarm, they would now burn brightly again,” Pastor Adeboye reported.
