The Leader of the Christian Association of Nigeria(CAN) in North Central Zone, Rev. Israel Akanji, said God is willing to deliver Nigeria from the present economic crisis provided the nation and their leaders are ready to end corruption, greed and bloodshed.
In an interview with journalists in Iwo on Tuesday on the sidelines of the 10th commencement lecture of the Bowen University for the university’s fresh students, Rev. Israel who is also the CAN leader in the Federal capital Territory (FCT) said God was willing to end the economic and other crises facing the nation but stressed that Nigerians must ‘repent from their sinful acts which he said brought the problems’.
“Our nation, Nigeria, we have the hope that the recession we are in is just going to be short-lived. God who owns and put this nation together who has continued to uphold this nation will definitely bring us out and place put feet on the rock and put a new song in our mouth to sing”.But we must repent of our sinfulness, corruption and all kinds of greed. Once we change our attitude, God will change in his own treatment to us, he is waiting for us.
He says in his word ‘if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn away from their wicked ways I will hear, I will heal and forgive their land.
God is ready but we should start by loving one another and stop, kidnapping, stealing, witchcraft and trust in him and he will divinely turn things around for us in our great nation
