Pastor Adeboye at UN, charts path to peace in Middle East

PEACE in the Middle East would remain a mirage without God’s involvement, as all involved in the process must get down on their knees to pray and cry out in supplication to the Creator of the Universe, General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said.
Adeboye stated this on Monday when he opened a “Global Summit on The Road Map to a Culture of Peace in the Middle East” at the United Nations (UN).


The summit, co-chaired by the prominent Nigerian cleric, was attended by religious leaders from different faiths from around the world and aimed to develop a model road map agreement for the Middle East with the intention to succeed where politicians and other world leaders have so far failed.

Explaining the need for prayers on the Mid East crisis, Adeboye said in his opening speech: “All human efforts without the backing of the Almighty God will end in failure. These are tasks beyond human abilities to accomplish, that is why you, highly esteemed religious leaders who believe in the efficacy of prayers, must come together in prayers and supplication.”

According to the cleric, God’s intervention is the only way to have peace in the Middle East “in our own time and in the time of generations yet unborn.”
Adeboye stated: “We have gathered here for the first time, senior religious leaders of the Abrahamic faiths, academic leaders and parliamentarians, to try and implement a partnership and plan of action to create a global resource to cope with these issues and to inspire the future generation to promote peace and universal values.”

The General Overseer of the RCCG worldwide was joined by several other global religious leaders, including the Grand Mufti of Bosnia Herzegovina, Dr. Mustafa Ceric, the Grand Rabbi of Geneva Rabbi Dayan, and prominent Islamic leaders from Arab countries like the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Turkey, Pakistan etc.

Also at the summit were Nigerian Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Raff Bukun-Onemola, Prof. Joseph Cumming, a Yale Professor of Faith and Culture, Adeboye’s wife, Pastor Folu, Vice Chancellor, Redeemers University for Nations (RUN), Prof. Oyewale Tomori and the leader of the RCCG in North America, Pastor James Fadele, among others.
Under the auspices of the Inter-parliamentary Coalition for Global Ethics, the summit was sponsored by King Mohammed VI of Morocco, and the Fundacion Cultural de Paz, while the Mission of Bosnia & Herzegovina to the United Nations and Pastor Adeboye were the co-hosts.
