According to the RCCG members, God Almighty has been faithful to Nigeria as a nation, hence the need to thank Him specially.

They noted that events in recent times have shown that Nigeria as a country has a special place in the heart of God Almighty.

At the annual women convention titled: “Overflowing with Gratitude,” on Sunday at the Church auditorium in Lugbe, Abuja, Jegede said despite the situation in the country and in the world at large Nigeria survived and God is still sustaining Nigeria.

The annual event witnessed special prayer for Nigeria, Nigerian leaders and a special thanksgiving song by the RCCG Everlasting Light zonal women choir.

Jegede said, “We are giving thanks to God Almighty today because despite the situation in the country and in the world at large, the Almighty God has sustained us. God has made us to be a victor. Our women are thanking the Almighty God today because despite the situation in the country in the past years God really preserved their families and they have cause to thank the Almighty God. That is why they have themed this programme ‘Overflowing Gratitude’.

“I therefore believe that as a country we should have a time to thank God because despite the situation in the country God still sustains us. The past elections, the world thought Nigeria would not be able to survive it, even during Covid-19, people thought Nigeria would not be able to survive it but here we are, Nigeria is still standing.”

Also, Pastor Mrs Lydia Jegede, called on President Tinubu and the National Assembly to consider choosing a day as a National Thanksgiving Day in Nigeria.

According to the pastor’s wife, the secret of greatness is gratefulness, adding that only the people that are grateful can enjoy the blessings of God.

Mrs Jegede said, “Nigeria as a nation has gone through a lot; Covid-19 came we survived it, economic meltdown came Nigeria survived, several natural disasters across the world but God gave us victory over all these situations, general elections came, the world thought Nigeria will not survive it as a Nation but we did survive the elections.

“Honestly, as a nation we need to cultivate attitude of thanking the Almighty God everyday, every second and every minute because God loves Nigeria and I want to appeal to the President, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu, that he should please use his office to look into it by spearing a day out for Nigerians to be praising God once in a year because if not for God’s mercy we would have been consumed.

“With what we went through in Nigeria God still loves us, God stand by us. So, to spear a day out for Nigerians to praise God is a great idea. May God continue to bless our nation.”

Speaking on the topic “Christ functional family”, the guest speaker, Pastor Kate Onyenekwe, asked the gathering to stand firm with the teaching of Christ, adding that a dysfunctional family is one in conflict, not committed to submitting to the will of God.

Taking her Bible verse from the book of Ephesians 5 verse 21 to 23 and Colossians 1 verse 15 to 23, Pastor Onyenekwe said a Christ functional family is not careless about the issues concerning the family.

She emphasised the need for appreciation, love and forgiveness in their family, saying a dysfunctional family is more loyal to outsiders than their family members.
