Why I still run from sexual temptations – Pastor Adeboye

Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), reveals how he still avoids sexual temptations despite his anointing and his age.

Citing the downfall of the biblical Samson, Adeboye advised both men and women to be wary of lust and to flee from sinful circumstances.

Adeboye made these remarks during the Ministers and Workers Conference of RCCG Americas 1.

In his words;

“Somebody says, at your age, why are you still running? I run faster than before because the closer you get to the finishing point, the more careful you must be.

“Some of you can say, ‘Daddy, what are you saying, are you still running?’ I run fast.

“With all your anointing?’ Does anointing turn your body to stone? Samson was anointed. Single-handedly, he killed a thousand soldiers. A woman finished him. I hope the boys are listening.

“You can say, ‘Is anybody still interested in an 82-year-old man?’ She is not interested in you but interested in putting an end to all the great works God has done through you.

“You see that woman smiling at you everywhere you go, she is there smiling, and she is not your wife, run.”
