We should be ready by now. Postponement is too dangerous.
THE PROPHECY ABOUT NIGERIA.
In 1986, Pastor S. G. Elton gave a prophecy concerning Africa and Nigeria. His words pointed to a coming spiritual revival in which Nigeria would play a significant role in the purposes of God.
And this was the prophecy.
" In the coming revival, Africa is like a hand gun turned downward; Nigeria is the trigger. Nigeria and Nigerians will be known for corruption worldwide, but the tide will turn, and Nigeria will also be known for righteousness worldwide. Many shall take hold of him that is a Nigerian, saying, We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you"
However, the prophecy also carries a serious responsibility. Nigeria has often been associated with corruption, scandal, injustice and other forms of moral failure. If Nigeria is to become known worldwide for righteousness, the transformation must begin with individuals. We must fight against the corruption that seeks to steal, kill and destroy what God wants to accomplish through us.
Nigeria must move from being known for corruption to being known for righteousness. The Church must rise with integrity. Christian leaders must pursue holiness. Believers must refuse compromise. Young people must embrace righteousness and reject the culture of corruption.
There is a revival to be triggered. But revival begins with a people who are willing to allow God to search their hearts and transform their lives.
As Scripture says:
"Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting."
Psalm 139:23–24
"It is time to sow righteousness so that we may reap mercy. It is time to break up our fallow ground. It is time to seek the Lord until He comes and rains righteousness upon us." Hosea 10:12
May Nigeria become what God has destined her to be.
