He further disclosed that several thousands of great clerics and prayer warriors drawn from across Nigeria, Africa, America and Europe will engage in fervent prayers for the well-being of Nigeria as a nation and Nigerians as a people.
“The convention of this year is very unique considering the situation the world has been going through for nearly two years running, but the good news is that our God is set to bring peace and joy unspeakable to the people of the world.
“It is our expectation that there shall be abundance of messages of salvation, harvest of miracles, signs and wonders, even as we have God’s assurance that the lame will walk, the blind will see, the deaf will hear, the captives set free as well as spiritual and physical healing for our nation,” Dr Felix Omobude added.
