Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has said that despite the challenges Nigeria is currently facing, God is working on putting the country on a new path of growth and development.
The Vice President made the proclamation while speaking at the 25th annual convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) on Thursday, August 19.
With the convention themed “New Beginning”, the Vice-president said it is in the nature of God to create new beginnings and Nigeria is on course, regardless of all doubts.
Osinbajo, in a statement issued by Laolu Akande, his spokesperson, on Thursday, cited the biblical story of Nathaniel who doubted whether any good thing could come out of Nazareth. He added that despite people doubting if anything good will come out of Nigeria, the country will experience a new beginning.
“Today, many men are saying the same about our nation Nigeria, even men of God, but this is the textbook case of how God works. He is set to give Nigeria a new beginning.
In the midst of current travails, the God of new beginnings is about to change our story. He is about to do something new. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
God did not create us to be independent of Him. He did not endow us with the strength to succeed without Him. The God of new beginnings did not create us to be self-sufficient. We need Him.”he said
