Northern Christian politicians to hold prayer confab

The General Over­seer of The Re­deemed Chris­tian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has called on Nigerians to crave for divine intervention in the issues affecting them.

He also appealed to Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, to con­struct a bigger stadium in Makurdi, the state capital.

The renowned clergy spoke at the Aper Aku Stadium during a one-day pastoral visit to the state. He said the large number of people at the Sunday prayer session showed that the sta­dium had become too small.

Adeboye said the Christian Associa­tion of Nigeria (CAN), Benue State chapter was in dire need of a secre­tariat and promised to send a delegate to the foundation laying cer­emony of the office.

While speaking on Divine Encounter, Pas­tor Adeboye who was accompanied by his wife, said God had first encounter with man in the Book of Genesis when he told him to preside over the earth.

Adeboye also said God told man and woman to multiply and be fruitful. According to him, anytime God speaks, miracle takes place.

He referred to other sections of the Bible where God had en­counter with man in­cluding the encounter with Lazarus and asked members of the con­gregation with various problems ranging from lack of promotion at work, witchcraft, bar­renness and retardation at the family and indi­vidual levels to request for God’s blessing and divine encounter.
