New Year: Cleric urges Nigerians to pray for peace
By Oboh Linus
Apostle Theophilus Ebonyi, the Senior Pastor, Faith on the Rock Ministry International, has admonished Nigerians to seek God through prayer for the country to overcome any demonic agenda against it in 2021.
Ebonyi gave the admonition in an interview with newsmen after a programme titled “Prayer for the Nation,’’ to mark his 43rd birthday and prophetic release for 2021 on Saturday in Karu, Nasarawa State.
The cleric said that going back to God genuinely was the only answer to the challenges confronting the country and the sure way to overcome its daunting challenges.
Reflecting on the 2020, the cleric said it was a turbulent year, full of battles ranging from lockdown, insecurity, insurgency and #EndSARS saga, saying God brought Nigerians into 2021 for a purpose.
He said that 2021 was a year of the Lord, where God himself would humble some demonic powers, forces and satanic agenda that had been bedeviling the nation.
The cleric disclosed that God revealed to him in the place of prayer, the full assurance of His blessings and intervention in the affairs of the country.
Ebonyi, however, said that the 2021 needed sincere prayer of everyone especially for the North and the governments at all levels.
“We have to pray for the governments and Nigerians, God loves this nation dearly but the kingdom of darkness has come out fully against it.
“If we call on God genuinely he will still deliver us as he delivered Israelites out of Egypt,” he said.
Speaking on his 43rd birthday, Ebonyi expressed grateful to God for adding another year to him in spite of the battles he went through in 2020.
He said that he dedicated his 43rd birthday to step up the mandate that God gave him to wipe away the tears of people through touching of lives with his resources.
He noted that what always gave him joy was to see humanity happy and liberated.(NAN)
