Gospel Church in Nigeria, Rev. Felix Meduoye, founder of the
Fountain of Life Bible church, Pastor Taiwo Odukoya including the
host of the annual Holy Ghost Congress, Pastor Enoch Adejare
Adeboye and his wife all on led the mammoth crowd to pray for peace
and tranquility in the country and other nations of the world.
Praying for the nation, Pastor Folu Adeboye asked the congregations
to appreciate God for His love and mercy over Nigeria and that God
should release flood of righteousness and flush out activities of terrorists,
unrest and other challenges confronting the giant of Africa. And that
holiness, obedience to God and constituted authorities will reign among
Nigerians for divine blessing and peace in the nation.
Mummy G.O also prayed for divine wisdom, knowledge for leaders
praying that God will give them power to be faithful, fear God, lead
aright, committed to their works having the love of the masses at the
back of their minds.
Advising couples to honour and keep their marriage vows, Prophet
Abiara while praying for the families explained that for peace to reign
in the family, it is important for couples to adhere strictlyto their
marriage vows.
Lamenting the high rate of divorce among couples, the man of God said
there was need for the Church to pray for peace in families as peace
experienced in individual families will transcend to the nation at large.
In his words: “God created man and woman and blessed them to have
a wonderful and joyful home but due to sin, man lost that glory. There
are cases where couples killed themselves, children disobedient to their
parents while most of our youths engaged in social vices. All these
were happening because we have departed from God. If we return to
God, He will heal our families and we will experience peace like a
river.”
Describing love as the bedrock of any marriage, Abiara asked couples
to have genuine love for one another, learn to forgive and forget;
adding that any of the couple who failed to forgive the wrong committed
by his or her partner was wicked person.
In his special talk and prayer for the church, the General Overseer,
Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria, Rev. Felix Meduoye, told
the worshippers that the Church, as a body of Christ, has lot of
responsibilities on it, to show forth God’s light through preaching of the
gospel, revealing God’s agenda for mankind, also as most powerful
agent of change that God placed on earth, saying anything against such is
a disappointment to God’s kingdom.
In his message titled : “Floodgate of Heaven, the general overseer of
the church, Pastor Adeboye said God did not have to create new
windows and gates for Him to pour His blessings saying heaven has
gates and windows.
Highlighting five things that would happen when God open windows of
heaven, Pastor Adeboye said: “stagnation will end and progress will
start, destitution becomes abundance, the hopeless begins to sing a new
song, the siege will be over and God will cause once enemies to hear a
noise and they will scatter.”
The cleric however noted that floodgate of heaven will only open for
those who serve God faithfully with their might and also propagate the
gospel of Jesus Christ, “God will not waste His blessings on those who
will not use it for His glory, God will only prosper those who will be
divine treasurer” he said.
Pastor Adeboye explained that sin, unforgiveness, not having right
perspective for getting breakthrough, laziness in place of prayer, failure
to preach the gospel among others are some of the obstacles that hinder
prayers.
Some of the dignitaries that attended the Friday Holy Ghost Congress
are Vice president of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo with his wife,
Ondo state governor, His excellency, Olusegun Mimiko, Lagos state
governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, The wife of the deputy governor

Mrs. Rachel Dickson.
