This, the said authorities reasoned, is in line with the Church's policy.
But in one of the articles written by the man of God, it was discovered that he has already written about the kind of retirement he wants. In this literary work, he well explained how he intends to retire.
The article culled from the Open Heavens annual publication of Monday October 3rd, 2011, Daddy Adeboye, as he’s fondly called wrote about ‘The True Face of Retirement”.
He said God has so much to give to man, and the spirit man has so much space to be filled by God….."Sometimes, when I see some of our elders retiring, I shake my head because contrary to what they think, it is only the beginning for them. Retirement actually means more time to pray all night since you are not going to the office in the morning.
“The greatest literally work done by John the Beloved was the Book of Revelation – a revelation he got while banished on the Island of Patmos. If God allows me to retire, I would sit at His feet daily and learn from Him, receive revelations and pour these into books for generations unborn. This way, by His grace, I could produce a book every month until he calls me home.”
Obviously, this should tell those clamouring for his retirement that the respected man of God whose regime as the G.O brought so much goodness to the church may not necessarily retired according to the wishes of men but that of God.
