Fortune said when one uses his life to serve God, untimely death won’t be the person’s portion. His post read:
“The Man on the left is a Pastor and He is Celebrating His 82Years old Birthday today.
“The brother on the right is a comedian and He just died at 62 today.
“What do you learn from this?
“Use your Life to Serve GOD.
“UNTIMELY DEATH SHALL NOT BE YOUR PORTION IN JESUS NAME.”
In a follow-up post, Pastor Fortune said God didn’t call him to please people. He maintained that those who genuinely serve God with their lives like Adeboye can’t die untimely.
