Yul Edochie, an actor, thought back on what God told him following the death of his son, Kambili. Yul appeared devastated as he posted the thought-provoking remarks on his YouTube channel.
Since his son’s passing, Yul has experienced a great deal, and he has also faced a great deal of criticism from the public following the founding of his church.
The actor claimed that God had told him he was being prepared for a journey he would eventually understand. He said,
“I was in my room all alone in my house in Lagos. I was all alone, I was heartbroken, shattered. This happened a few days after I lost my son. I was knocked out, just in my room, down, I couldn’t understand why it happened.
“God spoke to me, he said a couple of things to me. The first thing he said is that I shouldn’t think He doesn’t love me. I love you, and I have always loved you and I will always love you, but I have my reasons for letting this happen.
“He said I wouldn’t understand why this is happening now, at this point in your life, but in time to come, you will understand.
“Then He said again that I need the pain and he is taking me somewhere, on a journey and because of that journey I need the pain and the pain I was passing through is part of the process.
“He told me to give him praise, at all times and in all situations. You don’t know why I let it happen, but trust him and give him praise.
“God also said to me that it is okay to cry, but when I am done, I should get up, wipe my tears, and keep moving because I am a soldier.
His voice is gradually taking on the tone of someone who has truly seen it all and has made the decision to carry out God’s will and work.
