She said Israelites grown weary; felt abandon and went searching for another God to satisfy their ego, and make a mother calf as their God; they suffered for 400 years in the wilderness.
The female clergy said, when a country breaks tide with God, it leads to misdirection and misery, and the only way to get back on track is to return to God Almighty that He will restore, and heal the land and bless its citizens with spiritual and physical benefits.
She said, in so many ways, Christians have put activities above Godly practices. Something she said, God’s not happy with and need to change if we as nation must be blessed economically and spirituality.
She said when a nation, and the citizen are inpatient to wait on God’s time; they become restless, and will not find their way out, until they find their way to the Lord.
As Christians, we expect excellence from our heavenly Father; we expect nothing less than total dedication, commitment, reliability and success from a holy, righteous God.
No matter the condition, or situation it is required of us to wait on God’s time, because the dividends are beneficial both spiritual and physical adding 100 days of fast and prayer before a Holy God will never go in vain..
