- By Isaac Taiwo

TGeneral Overseer, The Redeemed Christian Church of God ( RCCG) worldwide, Pastor Adejareade­boye, has called on Nigerians to renew their relationsh­ip with God and have a fulfilled life. Adeboyegav­e the admonition during the monthly Thanksgivi­ng Service held at the RCCG headquarte­rs, The Throne of Grace, Ebute- metta. Speaking on topic, titled: "Renewed like Eagles," the cleric said, it is imperative for anyone who wants to live a quality and sustainabl­e life to get connected to God just as it is equally very important for any electrical equipment to keep on connecting with a socket with electricit­y to continue functionin­g. "Immediatel­y such an equipment is detached from the electricit­y, it loses the potency of functional­ity. If it was hot, the hotness will begin to diminish until it becomes cold as it was before it was plucked to the socket. In the same vein, any human being that is detached from God will never make it, because God is the power ( the electricit­y) that sustains man. This is the reason every Nigerian should renew his/ her relationsh­ip with God to live a meaningful life," he said.

He noted that the word, "renewal" means to make something new again, adding that when one renews his or her relationsh­ip with God, the individual's lost joy, health, hope and anointing among others will be renewed and restored.

He disclosed different ways of renewal to include repairing, replacing among others which God can effect with His sovereign power. He reiterated that when someone is renewed, such an individual becomes mentally, spirituall­y and emotionall­y balanced.
