Nigeria Would Be Far Worse Without Prayer – Adeboye by Omooba77(op): 4:31pm On Jun 01, 2025
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said the power of prayer over the nation has kept the nation saying, “Some say, ‘You’ve been praying and fasting — where is the result?’ I laugh. If we had not prayed, Nigeria would have been in a far worse state. Let’s not stop.

He also declared that RCCG operates under a divine shield — a supernatural covering that has preserved the church from calamities since its inception.

Speaking on Sunday during the monthly Thanksgiving service and special prayer for security and paramilitary personnel at the RCCG national headquarters in Ebute-Metta, Lagos, Adeboye
added, “There is a God who rules in the affairs of men. If those praying would pause for just one week, the difference would be terrifying. Keep praying. God controls the hearts of kings.

Adeboye preaching on the topic “Shadow of the Almighty,” talked about miraculous accounts that point to what he described as the “peculiarity” of RCCG under God’s shadow.

He said, “I never preach church or denomination, but there is something peculiar about the Redeemed Christian Church of God. There is a shield over the RCCG — unseen but undeniably present.”

Adeboye recalled how a building in the United States, which hosts an RCCG house fellowship, was the only one spared in a row of 15 houses during a devastating flood. “House after house was flooded, but house number eight — the only one with a sign that read, ‘House Fellowship of RCCG holds here’ — remained untouched,” he said.

He also cited a fire incident in March at Otedola Bridge, Lagos, where a blaze razed multiple buildings but mysteriously spared an RCCG structure. “The buildings before and after were consumed, yet the RCCG building was left standing. That is not a coincidence — that is divine covering,” Adeboye said as the church’s media team projected the image during his sermon.

He emphasized that although God’s protective presence may not always be visible, it is powerful and ever-present for those who abide in Him. “Your security is only assured in Him. Whether in peace or war, young or old, the Almighty casts a shadow of protection over His own,” he declared.

Earlier in the service, his wife, Pastor Folu Adeboye, led a passionate session of prayer for the peace and progress of Nigeria and those in leadership. “Let’s ask God to show our president mercy and give him peace, so that he may enjoy his time in office,” she prayed.

The Thanksgiving service, which also honored security and paramilitary forces, highlighted RCCG’s ongoing commitment to spiritual intercession for Nigeria’s peace and divine protection for its people.

Prayer goes a long way but not doing the right thing won't let u notice answered prayer.. when each and everyone of us start voting in this country we start noticing the work of prayer....that mentality of I can't waste my vote is out contribution to the hardship we are experiencing presently

With due respect Sir, did you also give those prayers to GEJ or you joined Buhari, tinubu and Co to protest?

I hope adeboye will just shun politics matter for now, to avoid attracting insults. I mean we all know the yoruba support of a thing, but for the sake of other redeemed members from other regions, he should kindly keep quiet on this jssue

Pastor Adeboye is only saying what appeal to his members. He knows prayers don't solve insecurities, hunger and poor economy.

..the conspirator..did not believe in prayers during GEj's time..he started believing in prayers & more prayers when he helped Apcshit to hijack power...since then..since removing Jonathan..prayers are heavily needed for Nigeria..

..since 2015..what we have been hearing :

1. Prayers
2.more prayers
3 report suspicious movement
4. Have patience with me - poo'hari
5 have patience & sacrifice - Thief'nubu
6. Rome Was nöt built in a day
7. It will improve
8 buy Nigeria first
9 Thief'nubu is "working"

The symptoms of Nigeria problems are..

Religion.

Poverty.

Corruption.

Pastors are major contributors of Nigeria problems. They're worst than Yahoo boys and politicians join together.

Papa please keep away some of us read the bible directly, we don't wait for pastors to translate for us. God has already provided our needs for us.

What of those countries that pray far less and not as religious as Nigerians and are doing far more better,the fact is there is too much hypocrisy amongst Nigerians,we are far away from God,many are just pretenders,we know the truth but keep deceiving ourselves,God is not two faced,he knows the hearts of the hypocrites

Nice one from one of the most tribalistic pastor's of our time. Did you consider prayers before protesting at Ojota in 2014? If at all God knows you, I am sure He has left you.

Are the political problems of developed nations of the world solved by prayers? Imagine the shitcrap this man is saying.

Zoogeria problem is lawlessness and impunity..if everybody do what is expected of them u will see a different country...na why basic things we pray about is available abroad. Light...water...good road...car...access to good health care....security...every other thing is born out of selfishness which is not from God.
