We Draw Our Confidence From God

Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has declared that his administration draws its confidence from the assurance that God is more than sufficient to guide its leaders, strengthen its institutions, and sustain its communities in peace and progress.

Fubara made the declaration yesterday at the 2026 Holy Ghost Rally organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.

The governor, who was represented by his deputy, Professor Ngozi Odu, said: “With the Almighty God on our side, our challenges are surmountable and our future remains hopeful.”

Fubara noted that the theme of this year’s rally, “The All-Sufficient God,” is both timely and reassuring.

According to the governor, the theme serves as a powerful reminder that in a world filled with uncertainty, God remains our unfailing source, sufficient in wisdom, strength, provision, and grace. He stressed that when human ability reaches its limit, God’s sufficiency prevails.

He commended the Redeemed Christian Church of God for its consistent spiritual impact and unwavering prayers for Rivers State and the nation, expressing appreciation for the Church’s contributions to promoting moral values, unity, and faith in God.

In his sermon, drawn from Genesis 17:1, the General Overseer of the RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, described the Almighty God, whose name is above every other name, as all-sufficient and capable of meeting every human need.

He noted that the God who created all things also has the power to repair and restore them.

Pastor Adeboye explained that while human effort, including medical intervention, may reach its limits, there comes a point where only God steps in to turn situations around, bringing hope where none seemed possible.

In his address, the Pastor in charge of the Rivers Family of the RCCG, Pastor Adesoji Oni, stated that the Port Harcourt Holy Ghost Rally, which began in 2015 and has now become an annual event, has been a tremendous blessing to the people of the State.

‎ Pastor Adesoji noted that the rally has drawn thousands of souls to God and has impacted lives spiritually and physically.

‎He further disclosed that the Church has gone beyond preaching the Gospel to actively engage in impactful initiatives through its Christian Social Responsibility programmes.

‎These include skills acquisition centres, maternity centres across the State, a rehabilitation centre for persons battling substance abuse, and an Innovative Mind Hub.
