In a remarkable account of faith and divine intervention, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has narrated how a woman's severe bodily scars vanished instantly following his prayers. The testimony, shared in a video that circulated widely, details an encounter during one of the cleric's international trips.
A Fateful Morning Walk Abroad
Pastor Adeboye explained that the incident occurred in a foreign city, which he deliberately chose not to name. Known for his habit of taking early morning walks to explore new places, he had inquired about the safety of the city before venturing out. "I get to a city, I ask them, How safe is your city? How soon can I go out to walk? Because I know I’m not in Redemption City, where I can walk at night," he recounted.
It was on his return from this walk that a woman recognized him. Excitedly, she approached him, blessing him and asking for his hotel location. Her persistence was notable, as she followed him all the way back to his hotel, creating an initially uncomfortable situation for the pastor.
An Unusual and Forceful Request
The situation escalated at the hotel elevator. Pastor Adeboye, mindful of appearances, expressed his discomfort. "Now, please, sister, don’t get me into trouble. Imagine somebody seeing me in a lift with a beautiful lady. They won’t know whether I’m going up with you or I’m coming down," he recalled telling her.
He offered to pray for her right there, but she refused to state her problem, insisting he would only understand if they went to his room together. "Long story short, she followed me by force into my room," the pastor said, prompting him to immediately whisper a prayer for divine help and protection upon entering.
A Shocking Revelation and a Powerful Prayer
Inside the room, the woman's reason for such desperate insistence became horrifyingly clear. "When she pulled up her dress, and what I saw, I almost screamed. Scars all over the body," Pastor Adeboye described. The woman explained that she was being beaten every night, and her body bore the brutal marks of repeated torture.
Moved by the sight, the cleric entered into intense intercession. "I cried to God. I reminded the Almighty God that every plant He has not planted can’t be rooted up," he stated. He prayed with loud conviction, unconcerned about who might hear, focusing solely on pleading for God's intervention for His daughter.
The Instantaneous Miracle
The result of the fervent prayer was immediate and complete. "I thanked God before she left the room. All the scars were gone," Pastor Adeboye testified. The physical evidence of her suffering had disappeared entirely following the prayer session.
Concluding his testimony, he extended the blessing of that miracle to his global audience, declaring, "I pray in the name that’s above every other name, every scar of the enemy in your life will disappear tonight. Everything in your life that you did not bring from them."
The video of this testimony, shared on Sunday, continues to inspire conversations about faith and the power of prayer among his followers and the wider public.
