Adeboye shared this during a special service at the International Worship Centre in Uyo on Friday, held to celebrate Rev. Uma Ukpai’s 80th birthday.
Reflecting on his experience, Pastor Adeboye said, “If you really, really want to serve God, then you must be ready to serve Him whether things are pleasant or not.
“In the darkest moment of my life since becoming a Christian — when I lost my son without notice — my son called me on a Sunday evening and said, ‘Daddy, the weekend programme was extremely successful. Glory be to God, thank you for your prayer support.’ The next thing I heard on Tuesday night was that my son was gone.
“I had to preach on Friday, and one reference point that gave me strength was Uma Ukpai. I know he lost more than one child in a day, yet he did not waver. He kept on serving God. He gave me strength at a time when I needed it most.”
