His Grace, the Primate of All Nigeria and the Bishop of Abuja has directed that tomorrow Wednesday April 1, 2020 be observed as a special Solemn Day of Prayer and Fasting . The Primate encourages everyone to seek the face of God through prayer and fasting that God will deliver us from COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the Primate noted that prayers should be offered in these prayer hours: 12:00 noon; 3:00pm and 6:00pm.
God’s word assures us that when we pray He will answer us. “2 Chronicles 7:14 says “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
“From lightning, fire, and tempest; from earthquake, drought, and flood; from famine, plague, and pestilence. Good Lord, deliver us” (BCP).
