General Overseer of the Redeemed
Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye has assured
Nigerians that the country will overcome all the current security challenges
including terrorism, unemployment, economic turbulence as well as the prediction
of the collapse of the nation before 2015.
Speaking at the church’s National Headquarters in Ebute-Meta, Lagos where he
conducted a worship service themed: “A Sure House”, the man of God said rather than being troubled over
these challenges, Nigerians should move closer to God, who has the ultimate
solution to every challenge of life.
Pastor Adeboye who was
represented by his Special Assistant on Administration and Personnel, Pastor
Johnson Odesola said that since human efforts have failed to restore hope and
peace in the country, it is crucial to seek divine intervention to numerous
challenges confronting the country.
In his words: “The prayer that a new Nigeria will emerge by our father
in the Lord is a prophetic word regardless of whatever the nation is going
through now. You will recall that Elisah prayed and prophesied in the midst of
uncertainty and we see the result.
We trust God that history will
repeat itself in Nigeria too. Nigerians should shun all forms of
unrighteousness, move closer to God with their heart and not with mouth and
diligently seek the face of God in prayer”.
He emphasized the need for those
in positions of authority to seek the face of God in everything they are doing
while also admonishing the followers to adhere to the basic truth and biblical
doctrines.
Speaking on the growing housing
deficit in the country, Pastor Odesola said effective policies should be
developed to address this as it is done in other parts of the world, adding
that provision of affordable houses can address several social challenges in
the country.
