The Spiritual Mother of Ebenezer Praying Band Church, Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church, Her Grace, Rev. Dr El-Miram Irene Akinwande, has urged individuals and nations not to take lightly the second coming of Christ.

Akinwande who has recently been bestowed the Grand Matron of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Mosan Okunola Abesan area under the Lagos State Chapter, said she desired to see that October 25th be set aside yearly and recognised by the United Nations as a solemn reminder of Jesus’ return.

She noted that the church holds an interdenominational service annually on October 25, adding that it remains a remarkable date where she recalls her spiritual encounter that birthed her mandate in evangelical outreach.

“I want the world to know that Jesus is coming again. This is an important message. I know nothing is impossible with God, so I desire that October 25 be globally recognised for the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,” Akinwande shared with the media.

The founder of El-Rabboni Evangelical Ministry which organizes outreaches within and outside Nigeria affirmed that Nigeria could overcome her challenges.

The wife of Baba Aladura Emeritus urged Nigerian leaders to acknowledge God and be faithful in rendering selfless service, as doing so will attract eternal reward.

Also, she enjoined electorates to pray more and play well their part in having a better Nigeria. “The way things are we need more prayers especially in conquering terrorists disturbing the peace of the nation. It has happened in the days of Jehoshaphat and he was granted victory by God over the enemies,” she stated.

Akinwande also charged women not to shy away from politics or taking up leadership positions, adding that they shun flamboyance and all forms of ungodliness.
