President Buhari was urged to seek spiritual intervention in defeating Boko Haram and other challenges facing the nation.
A certain Rev Evang Iroatu Godson Chukwuma, the senior Pastor of Assemblies of God, Alimosho Mega Worship Center, Egbeda, Lagos, southwest Nigeria; has urged the President to seek spiritual intervention in the fight against Boko Haram.
He also called on the the Lagos State governor, Mr. Akinwumi Ambode, to seek the face of God in tackling the challenges facing the state.
Rev. Chukwuma who also doubles as the Lagos District Media Coordinator of Assemblies of God Church, Nigeria, revealed this during a press briefing marking the beginning of the annual church conference, GILGAL 2015 coming up at Egbeda, Alimosho, Lagos on Wednesday 8th July 2015.
The clergyman asserts that it is only God that can defeat the insurgents as it’s not a carnal battle but a spiritual one.
In view of this, the church is organizing a five day spiritual emphasis to seek God for divine intervention in Lagos and Nigeria.
According to the man of God, “Gilgal is a place of new Covenant and remembrance of mighty miracles of God, a place of removal of shame and entering into the land of promise, a place of first Passover in Canaan, a place of military operations for Israel during the conquest of Canaan, a place of allotment of portions to the tribes, a place of kingly coronation and renewal of king ship.
“It is a place of destruction of the enemies of God like King Agag by Samuel, a place of raising Prophets and holiness, a place of ascension to heavenly realm, a place of anointing and headquarters of Samuel, Elijah and other Prophets.
In summary, expect God to take you to your promised land renew His covenant with you, destroy your enemies, crown you king and restore your glory,” he said.
