General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, said governors and kings don’t feel safe despite the security guards, noting that the insecurity in the country has gone from bad to worse.
Adeboye made this disclosure on Sunday during First Sunday and Independent Day sermon, he prayed for every family passing through difficulties, that God would speak perfect peace into such a family.
The clergyman was delivering a sermon titled, ‘Perfect peace in the land’, from II Chronicles 7: 13-14.
He said, “A whole nation can be in a storm. If a governor cannot go to his farm and feel safe, despite the security guards, He has to thank God that he returned safely, despite the bodyguard. For that matter, a governor. When we talk about security, the governor should be secure. When a governor alters such a statement, then you know the situation we are in.
The clergyman stressed that, “As young, as I am, I remember a time when the king was coming. Unless you are one of the very special people, you have to move out of the way. But things are different now. Kidnappers can go to the palace and kidnap the king. Don’t let anybody deceive you; we are in a war.
Adeboye charged Nigerians to keep praying for the leaders for God to touch their hearts so the citizens will enjoy. “We need to keep praying for our leaders. The hearts of kings and rulers are in the hand of God. We need to pray to God to touch their hearts so that we can enjoy ourselves. It doesn’t matter how much they are selling bread, there will always be bread in Aso Rock, and irrespective of the epileptic power supply, Aso Rock will always have light.
“Why we are not enjoying is because we refuse to do our duty. If you say the wicked are ruling, why not pray that God should touch their hearts? We need to pray that God should lead our leaders right.”
