YESTERDAY was a spiritual day as many Zambians from all walks of life joined hands in fasting and praying for God’s interventions in different sectors of the country.
In Lusaka’s Show Grounds, hundreds of Lusaka residents gathered as they prayed for reconciliation and forgiveness and asking God to heal the Zambian land.
Meanwhile, Chiefs took time to pray for the nation and asked God to take full control of all chiefdoms.
The traditional leadership that was represented by Chiefs Chipepo and Ngabwe pleaded with God that the Lord Almighty visits all chiefdoms in the country.
The Chiefs prayed earnestly to God that He may have mercy on the land so that the country can prosper in everything the nation does.
The Chiefs also prayed for the land of Zambia by getting portions of soil and spoke a work of prosperity to the land and that everything the nation will do will be a blessing.
And in his homily, Bible Gospel Church in Africa (BIGOCA) Overseer Bishop Peter Ndhlovu says there is need for Zambians to call on God earnestly and turn away from wickedness and violence and ask God to heal the land.
Bishop Ndhlovu says the country has witnessed so many cases of violence in the recent past and thus the need to ask God to give Zambians grace to avoid such negative vices.
And Bishop Ndhlovu says Prayer will bring the country’s economy back on track because God will give wisdom to Government workers.
And Bishop Edward Chomba, before his opening prayer, clarified that the gathering is not a political gathering but that people came from all walks of life to ask God to intervene in social and economic challenges in the nation.
Some of the notable people that were part of the prayers include; Fourth Republican President Rupiah Banda, MMD President Nevers Mumba, NAREP Leader Elias Chipimo Junior, ZDDM President Edwin Sakala, Green Party President Peter Sinkamba, Fourth Revolution Leader Erick Chanda among others.
First Republican President Dr. Kenneth Kaunda is expected this evening to release a fatherly blessing on President Lungu and President Lungu in turn is expected to release a blessing to the nation by way of releasing a dove during the ongoing prayers in the show grounds.

One Zambia One Nation. I feel for UPND Canicius MWITWA who was given a task to withdraw the statement he earlier gave that UPND and its leadership was going to attend the prayers. It was a test to his political career, withdrawing and apologizing for telling people to attend National prayers!!! Shame.

Njala yeka yeka. Without thinking on your own, there’s nothing God can do for you after giving you all the resources and brain to think.

I must say it’s very disappointing to see how my party president reacted on the call to pray. I am one of the diehard upnd but not any more. how can we surely write Off God in this time which is not only affecting lungu but the impact has gone down to my village? when did it become wrong to turn to God? today I quit upnd, I will hand over my barrette, t-shirt and chitenge. I can support what fights God.

The Missionaries used the Bible to deceive Africans. They came with the Bible in their hands & said “Lets pray, close your eyes”. By the time the prayer was over, the Africans had the Bible in their hands while the Europeans had the land, mining rights, taxes on villagers etc.
PF politicians are also using the same tactic to blind Christians. Please pray with your eyes open or else you’ll be used by Politicians while bask in looted Govt funds. Pray to God through Jesus Christ but do not be taken advantage of.
