Pray For Our Politicians Instead Of Cursing Them – Pastor Richard Adeboye

The Pastor-in-charge of Region 12 of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Ogun Province 4, Richard Adeboye has come out to tell Nigerians should pray for their politicians, not curse them.

He recently made the statement at the Halleluyah Mega Praise Night Season 2 at the Shimawa High School, Ogun State.

According to him, despite several fights and protests against religious leaders all across the country, nothing has changed, hence, the need for prayers.

He added that it is obvious that fighting the country leaders about the situation of the nation is not the best option.

His words, “There is no nation like Nigeria. For the fact that we are still surviving is a symbol that God has created this nation in a very unique way and very soon, we shall shout victory at last.

Nigerians should stand in the place of responsibility, because I have this philosophy that every possibility of God is compelled by the responsibility of man. Let’s do what we’re supposed to do. Let’s move closer to God. And let’s believe in God and whatever we need to do physically, let’s do it. We’re not saying we should protest, or fight against the government. We have done that in the past, we didn’t win the battle. The Bible says the heart of the King is in the hand of God. If only we can talk to God that put them there, I believe things will change and very soon it will change.

My message is that they should recognise the one that actually put them on the throne. We should stop fighting our leaders. The role of the church is to preach righteousness and establish integrity. If the world sees what we preach is what we are doing, I believe it will be go round and it will be contagious, and very soon, everybody will be affected.”
