Bishop Michael Oba Oro, the General overseer of Good rock of salvation spiritual church of Christ Aladura, Ado Ekiti, Has urged the federal government of Nigeria, state governments and the Christian Association of Nigeria(CAN) on need to work together to combat the coronavirus pandemic stressing that only prayer can cure the virus at this trying time, VOICE AIR MEDIA reports.

In a statement made available to Newsmen in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti state capital, Bishop (Dr) Micheal, Oba Oro said the coronavirus pandemic battling with the world will soon be a history if government and CAN should work together to fight the deadly virus which has killed over 700+ persons in Nigeria.

Bishop Micheal stated:

"The lord spoke to me that Christians allover the country should come together as one and pray against the coronavirus pandemic, things might be worse than this before normalcy return but hopefully soonest this pandemic will be a history.

I see that the virus is very much real but people won't believe and prayer is the only antidote that can cure it so that things may not be worse than this in 2021 and 2022 as you can see Our children are at home, Business organizations is not fully operational, religious and public gatherings are banned and if care is not taken things might not be as expected hence there is a need to come together as one and pray because prayer is the master key and to achieve this we must be in unity and see political differences aside.

God also reveal to me that 2021 will be a great year for Nigerians, things might be difficult at first but it will end swiftly."

I urge state governments to lift the ban on religion gatherings so that Christians can pray as the word of God is very essential, it is the spiritual food to grow in moral, wisdom and knowledge and persons between the age of 12- 65yrs must be reconsidered according to the word of God in the book of Matthew 19:14 which says But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.” and also Psalm 127:3; Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him therefore it will be of ignorance to deny children access to worship centres.

A child's heart has a tendency to do wrong, but the rod of discipline removes it far away from him. This is why we need to bring them to church so they can hear the word of God more to change their thought.

Government says they are protecting the children from death, they should also understand that spiritual food is very important for their upkeep especially at this time that crime rises on daily basis, teenagers should be allowed in churches only if accompany by their parents with social distancing rules.
