The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has scheduled Saturday (tomorrow) to pray for divine intervention on the insecurity facing the country that has claimed many lives and properties of innocent citizens.
The prayer meeting tagged ‘Come, let’s rebuild the Broken Wall’ will hold at the CAN center in Bauchi during which selected men of God will lead various prayer sessions for peace and tranquility in the state in particular and the country as a whole.
While briefing news men last week Friday, Chairman of CAN in Bauchi State, Rev. Dr. Abraham Damina Dimeus explained that, the prayer meeting became necessary considering the spate of insecurity in the country.
Damina, decried that the situation in the country has become so bad that no one knows what happens to him or her next thereby restricting their movements to one place, a development he said has cause uncertainties in the minds of the people.
“We as Christians must not just sit down watching the situation degenerating to a situation that may be irredeemable, we must stand up to fight the spiritual battle, seek the face of God for divine intervention in the situation”, he said.
He further said that, the only way things can get better for the country is to hand over the situation to God because according to him, “We have such history in the Bible but with the divine intervention of God, the situation was reversed positively. We can still do it now because it is the same God yesterday, today and tomorrow”.
The Clergyman called on Christians in the state to turnout and be part of the prayer meeting which text is drawn from the book of Nehemiah 2:17 when Prophet Nehemiah returned to God while in captivity for the rebuilding of the fallen walls of Jerusalem.
