The Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, and the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Chuch of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Sunday urged Nigerians to be faithful, diligent and honest in all that they do so as to attract favour from God and man.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported that they said this at the 8th Annual Conference and Reunion of the Redeemed Christian Church of God Apapa Family, Lagos Province 20, with the theme ‘Riding on the wings of Change’.
Osinbajo said at the event, which took place at the Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos, that the country needed faithful men who could be relied on to do a good job of nation building.
“If you are a typist, if you are a receptionist, if you are a security man, be faithful in the little things you are doing.
“It is that faithfulness, it is that trustworthiness, it is that loyalty towards the things you are doing and to people you are serving that will lift you up.
“That is the change our nation needs. I trust that we, as the children of God, will be not just harbingers of that change, but will be that change.
“Our country is waiting for us; I trust that we are all going to be that change that the nation needs,” he said.
Also, Governor Akinwummi Ambode of Lagos State said that the theme of the conference was appropriate, especially with the current situation in the country.
“The theme of the conference aptly sums up our expectations and collective desire as individuals; no meaningful progress can be achieved without a purpose driven change in the right direction.
“Our prime focus and concern shall be to serve diligently; as we embark on this journey, no one, irrespective of status, strength, ability or disability would be left behind,” Ambode said.
The governor also prayed that God would grant him wisdom, knowledge and understanding as he governs the state.
“I request of the Lord divine wisdom and knowledge like King Solomon,” he said.
Adeboye prayed that the new leaders would rule Nigeria with the fear of God.
He said that those in power should remember that power belongs to God and that at the end of the day they would give account to Him.
“Anyone who wants to ride on the wings of change must be humble, kind, patient so that everything that Nigeria has lost will be fully restored,” Adeboye said.
NAN reported that Osinbajo, Ambode and Adeboye were given Apostles of Change awards by the RCCG Apapa family at the event. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

You would have seek advise from tunde bakare before coming out for race.I know for sure they will force you to resign if nigeria survive it existence this 2015.
ReplyDeleteyou are so bittered by the way pdp is kicked out of office and in nigeria at last... but I will advice you to jump into the lagoon; because nigeria will definitly survive it's existence way beyond 2015 and I assure you that you will never live to see it.
DeletePDP was never a political party it was a cult that was using our money to fund itself... little wonder the so called party will rule for 16year... just once they lost the central and they are turn in bits. God will do to all the PDP memebers and their supporters what they have done to Nigerians in multiple fold.
Men of God stay away from politics just attend to your churches and pray for the leaders and the country is all we ask do not interfere
ReplyDeleteMen of God are needed in Nigeria politics.
DeleteWhy would a typist be honest living in poverty on a poor salary and unpaid when your political that are the highest paid on the planet is looting billions? Start from the top and the bottom will follow. People who do not know about not being paid for a year and living like a dog should shut up.
ReplyDeletePastor Enoch Adeboye, hear me again! You have destroyed this church: Redeemed Christian Church of God. One, you sold this church to rich people who are not born again and they are building churches here and there producing sinners and sending them to hell. Two, you have decided to sell this church again to politicians. You have not only deviated from the vision of the founding Father but has also sold this church to the world. God is not happy with you. Pray and you will find out what I am telling you. What will it pay you if after all these labours you go to hell? Remember Moses. God is not the respecter of persons. Where are the true born again children of God in RCCG and what are they doing? None of you is praying.You have decided to keep quite, but God will not be happy with you all because you refuse to speak out and pray in time like this.
ReplyDeleteThe Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo examine yourself whether you are still in the faith. ON THE HAND OVER DAY YOU TOOK OATH AND YOU SWORN AGAINST THE WORD OF GOD.That is nothing to you. During the campaign you spoke many lies and that is nothing to you. You are now dinning with the world and that is nothing to you. You have been used to sell the church to the children of the bond woman and that is nothing to you. Well watch your back? There is a hole at an inch to your feet and you are going with your back backing, you will soon fall inside.
