Grammy-nominated singer Davido has shared how his father\u2019s teachings on faith have profoundly influenced his life and resilience.<\/p>\n
Speaking on a Rollingout podcast, Davido opened up about growing up in a Christian home where his father, a prominent businessman and church elder, instilled strong values of trust in God.<\/p>\n
According to him, among the lessons he learnt from his father, one stood out: never question God\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n
He revealed that this advice has been a cornerstone in helping him navigate life\u2019s challenges, including the heartbreaking loss of his son, Ifeanyi.<\/p>\n
Davido credited his father\u2019s wisdom for providing him the strength to endure difficult times.<\/p>\n
The singer reflected on how his father\u2019s words initially didn\u2019t make sense to him, but after experiencing a series of blessings, including the birth of twins, a successful album, and Grammy nominations, he began to understand the power of faith.<\/p>\n
Davido emphasised that his father\u2019s lessons have taught him to trust in God\u2019s plan, even in the face of adversity.<\/p>\n
He encouraged others to adopt a similar mindset, reminding them that God is always working in their favor.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cMy dad is very successful, but he\u2019s an elder in the church. I grew up as a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. I attended a Christian college.<\/p>\n
\u201cI overcame a lot of challenges because of my dad. Initially, I did not understand, but now I\u2019ve come to the realization. I was angry. Sometimes, I was like, \u2018Why do bad things happen to good people?\u2019 And my dad told me that you can\u2019t question God.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was like, \u2018What do you mean you can\u2019t question God?\u2019 And then a year later [after the death of my son, Ifeanyi], we had twins, the biggest album of my career came, and my first Grammy nominations came. Then it started to make sense. People go through different challenges, but just know that God has your back,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
