Pastor Adeboye advises Nigerians to pray for rulers
According to Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, the nation is currently experiencing conditions similar to those of war.
Adeboye revealed this on Sunday at the congregation's regular Thanksgiving ceremony, which simultaneously marks Nigeria's 62nd anniversary of independence and is being seen by our correspondent.
Perfect peace throughout the country was the topic of the minister's sermon, which was based on II Chronicles 7:13–14.
According to Adeboye, perfect peace is one that lasts forever and is characterised by the absence of conflict and storms.
He mentioned many classifications for storms.
He asserts that traditional leaders used to be revered and treated as deities, adding that they are today being abducted without cause.
He said, “In the olden days, except you are one of the special people, they don’t allow the king’s dress to touch you. But thank God.
“Now kidnappers can go to the palace to kidnap the king. We are in a war situation, let no one deceive you.â€
While Prophesying the end in sight, Adeboye, stressed that God would bring an ultimate end, “What kings, soldiers can’t do, the Almighty God will do for you,†he added.
Additionally, Adeboye advised the populace to stop criticising their leaders and to instead pray for them.
He bemoaned the fact that criticism had become the preferred course of action rather than praying for solutions.
The General Overseer said, “Pray for the rulers, we have spent so much time criticising them. You should pray for them. I’m praying for them, I pray you will join me to pray.â€
