When Last Did You Pray For Your Country? by ShobayoEmma(m): 1:13pm On Jun 21, 2013
In my own opinion i think praying for one's country should be as constant as praying for oneself. So dear NLs, i wish to know your stand on this. Thanks.

I read books on politics and dwell on how I can help make my country better. I also believe, despite the odds, that Nigeria shall be great. That is my prayer.

I used to pray for Nigeria but somehow I stopped because prayers without works is dead. We Nigerians have been praying for Nigeria since time immemorial. Yet, things continue to get worse. My bible tells me in Proverbs 14:34 " Righteousness exalts a nation but sin condemns any people" (NIV). Take a look at what Nigeria has become. Moral values are at an all time low even with all the churches springing up at every corner of the street. Many Married Nigerians are cheating on their spouses with reckless abandonment thereby committing adultery and seeing nothing wrong with it.

Most of the single Nigerians cannot engage in courtship without defiling their bodies with out-of-wedlock sex also known as fornication. When unwanted pregnancy occurs, they attempt to abort the pregnancy or give birth to the child and then flush him/her down the toilet like the female university student did.

The young men go to the university and instead of focusing on their studies begin to join cults where they fight and kill rival cults and also molest and r*a*p*e young women on campus at will. Other Nigerians are selling and buying human body parts in an attempt to get rich quickly without hard work. Many women are selling their bodies so they can afford the latest blackberry, hair weave, brand name clothing and accessories or a fancy ride that will be bought for them by their rich already-married sugar daddies. Many Civil servants are collecting all forms of bribe from the ordinary man if not they won't do the job they have been hired for and are paid to do. Corrupt politicians continue to loot our treasury dry while the masses languish in poverty. Tribalism equally continues to thrive in Nigeria. Child sexual molestation is at an all time high in Nigeria and the perpetrators are never given stiff penalties for their crimes.

And we think the Ancient of days, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the I AM that is also known as Jehovah is not watching? We think that as a people we can live our lives anyhow from Monday through Saturday and then run to church on Sunday to raise up soiled hands that we are praising God? Who do we think we are deceiving? As far as Nigeria is concerned we are a lost cause. If we don't repent as a nation - no matter the prayers - we will self destruct and I personally will make sure I am back out of Nigeria before that happens.

Praying for yourself is as good as praying for yourself,because if you are good,your country will automatically be good.

It is all in your hands

I did pray for my country,Nigeria this Morning. I do it everyday except when I forget. Although, I hardly forget.
Regardless,we need to get working. Work & commitment are what Nigeria needs primarily.
