HE WAS HIT BY A MOVING VEHICLE, SMASHED HIS HEAD THROUGH WINDSCREEN, UNCONSCIOUS FOR A FEW HOURS BUT ALIVE TODAY!

This testimony will blow your socks off. I have known him for over 15 years and he's one worship leader with such a heart and passion for God. He carries such a grace and a unique anointing. I have been greatly blessed and inspired by his ministry

Gbenga Adebodun is an ordained Pastor who resides in Abuja Nigeria. He’s been in the music ministry for over two decades, started singing in a choir in 1985 and has served in several churches as music Director/ Worship leader

He is a recording artiste, a vocal coach & a consultant who trains worship teams, choirs, vocal groups & individuals in music ministry. I think I was in one of his trainings. He currently travels around ministering in meetings within & outside Nigeria.

I knew he had a mind blowing testimony and asked him if he would love to share this with iTestify and he said yes, however it took him ages before he responded and I would not stop asking until he delivered phewww lol, once when he saw my message he replied and said ‘Gosh now I am scared of you’ hahahah, don’t think I am scary though. He is quite busy and I really do appreciate his taking out time to respond to me.

When I eventually read his testimony I was like wow now I understand why it took you so long. In his own words ‘Now you see why it took me that long to send I had to condense 3 experiences’. He is a very funny and jovial person which made the process of waiting really interesting.

Now I am going to let you read his testimony for yourself and I promise it will stir your faith, like it did minne. There is nothing that God cannot do. I don’t know how He did it, but He kept Gbenga and I know that He can keep you too!


Gbenga: On the 13th of October 2013, I had an ordeal that I practically saw the hand of God at work. I personally experienced the Goodness of God! 

It was a Sunday & I was in church (Graceville Christian Centre Abuja Nigeria), even led the last session of praise after the service I was going home happily feeing fulfilled for being used of God.
I didn't drive my car to church that day, So had to go with a taxi. In the process of crossing the road on foot to get a taxi, I somehow forgot the single lane had become a dual carriage route; (terrorism in Nigeria made most churches put barricades in front & around the premises & others block roads to divert vehicles) I crossed the first set of cars & somehow totally forgot to look the other way. 

Next I knew I found myself in my house 5 days later with 2 assistants from my church who had been taking turns in taking care of me. I was weak & had pain all over.

I was told a fast moving jeep hit me at top speed; the driver with 3 kids in the car in a rush to get home after service must have been distracted. The impact was so bad that my head smashed through the windscreen, my left collar bone was fractured I had a couple of broken ribs on both thorax, I went unconscious immediately after the impact. I still have a 5day loss of memory till date.
I was rushed to the General Hospital by members of my church who were still around my clothes soaked with my blood gushing out of my face from cuts on my head.

The hospital I was admitted in was going to undergo a fumigation exercise so patients were discharged & critical cases referred to other hospitals. I was discharged hence my being home after 5days. On the 6th day I started having great difficulties breathing & by the 7th day I was breathless panting like I was out of air,  the pain from my fractured ribs & collar bone was so excruciating that I prayed asking God to take me Home. I was rushed to a private hospital & X-ray showed blood in my right lung. 

I was admitted again & Surgery was done, a tube inserted in my lungs for blood drainage. I was in the hospital again being treated & monitored for 2 weeks on. I was happy when finally the tube was removed & I was discharged after 2 weeks of round the clock treatment & breathing exercises.

I thought it was all over, I went to visit a friend to appreciate their support during the ordeal & when I got back home I started having terrible stomach pains. My digestive system hadn't adjusted to taking normal meals; before morning I had visited the toilet to pass out blood, food & stuff like 18 times. By morning I had rectal protrusion, I couldn't sit, I was in pains again; Long story I went back to the hospital for surgical removal. Had a successful surgery again.

It was a painful experience but I had my church family there with me. My pastor & associates were a huge Blessing coming daily to check on my progress. The Dude who hit me was shown the mercy of God. He wasn't allowed to pay the bills; my church took care of all the bills, with the care team bringing food regularly for me! 

My friends were there for me too they all helped me survive the experience in their own way, 
After the surgeries I have been to the hospital only once for a check-up. In a year I had a Thanksgiving concert in church. I saw the healing miracle of God. Fractured ribs & collar bone healed so fast!  Scars barely visible on my head & face. No broken hand or leg 

God showed up for us by keeping me alive with no permanent damage or disability.  Half of what I survived has killed several others. But I am alive to tell the story today.  I give God all the Glory & Praise! I am preserved for purpose!!




iTestify: Thank you for sharing Pastor G, God kept you and we are glad. I pray His purpose for you will be made manifest. Bless you bro.

  2. God truly is faithful and he keeps his own people. I have known PG since 2008 when he was music director of Light House Abuja where God used him to build a choir from scratch to become world class.
    God bless and increase your ministry PG
