Pastor Chris Okotie; Stay patriotic
Nigerians have been urged to stand up to the current challenges of insecurity as running away from a fatherland may not be the best solution for the problem
The Shepherd Superintendent of the Household of God Church, Lagos, Reverend Chris Okotie in a press statement released in Lagos said that Nigerians should not run away from their fatherland to other countries, as abandoning the nation to the insurgents may not be the best solution.
Quoting extensively from the scripture, Rev Okotie urged all youths and elders alike to unite and forge a formidable force to tackle the insurgents adding that threats from kidnappers, terrorists and other violent groups should not be used as excuses to abandon the country.
Rev. Okotie spoke in reaction to comments on social media, in which some prominent citizens were urging Nigerians to be prepared to escape from the country in view of the deteriorating security situation of the country.
Below is the full text of his statement:
David faced Goliath. Some trust in chariots and horses as veritable escapist instrumentality. But we will remember the name of the Lord. The hireling runs but the true shepherd repels the canine monstrosity of the old fox. No uncircumcised Philistine will annex the inheritance of the saints in light in Nigeria.
They lurk in our forests in covert stratagem. They parade our streets, by ways and high ways in subtle disguise. Yet Jehovah has discovered their witty inventions. His indignation will consume them in holy jealously. Fear not beloved of the Lord for there is a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees.
The armies of heaven are marshaled forth on our behalf. Remember, the taunting of Ishmael will not cause Isaac to lose the inheritance. So, stand your ground. Having done all, STAND!!
Our God is Jehovah Sabaoth, the mighty God Almighty. Of whom shall we be afraid? Jesus Christ, Jehovah-Victor is the Ark of God and leads his army. Arise! Arise!, soldiers of the cross. Time to take the battle to the gate!!
