This is a wake-up call to all Christians of every denomination in Nigeria!
“THE DIRE IMPORTANCE BUT INSUFFICIENCY OF PRAYERS ALONE”
By Pastor Femi Emmanuel
“As a servant of God and an Intercessor, I have always believed in the potency of prayer. The centrality of prayer in the political transformation agenda of the Nigerian Church cannot be overstressed. It is important however to note that prayer ALONE Is not enough. The Church community in Nigeria must come to realize that, in addition to fervent intercession, we must actually get involved in the affairs of managing and governing the country. We should be involved in all relevant areas including vetting, recruiting, selecting and putting people in political offices from the local government level to the Presidency, if we are to see the New Nigeria we all earnestly yearn for.
This is the major lesson I learned from my involvement in Nigerian Politics. It is possible for this country to be saved, but to do this, Christians must build their own platforms to produce their own candidates and participate in politics. It was my adventure into Nigerian politics that opened my eyes to this reality. If we didn’t have our own platform, where good, qualified God-fearing candidates will emerge, then we are completely at the back of the fence.”
