The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Adeboye has given men powerful piece of advice during one of his special online services.
When dishing out the advice, the pastor said that he has told men not to fight women because if woman says she will deal with you, she will do it.
To buttress his point Pastor Adeboye cited the classical Biblical case of Elijah and Jezebel.
“Elijah arrived at Jezreel, sat down in his house and was enjoying the victories that had happened. He had just called down fire from heaven. He had prophesied and prayed and there was rain for the first time in three years. He had brought about national revival. He had outrun the chariot of the King.
He was happy but then a message came from the First Lady of the land: ‘I heard what you did on Mount Carmel, I swear to you by my gods by this time tomorrow, you will be like one of the prophets that you killed’. Elijah the great man of God ran, the man who dared 450 prophets ran from a woman.
I know a lot of people have said how could that be? Elijah was very wise. I have told you men of God again and again, don’t fight a woman.
If a woman says she is going to deal with you, run. If you learn to run today, you will be alive to fight tomorrow. The African elders have a saying “the one who knows when to fight and when to run is the one they call the champion”. You must know when to fight and when to run.
When Jezebel says “I am coming for you” Elijah did the right thing. He ran”. Vanguard quoted him as saying.
