Prophet Moses Olagunju
The Zonal Superintendent of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Power of God Saves Peace Zone, Prophet Moses Olagunju, has declared that 2025 will be a year of progress for Nigerians who put their trust in God and shun sin and ungodliness.
Speaking in an interview with The Nation ahead of the upcoming’ Ibadan for Christ Crusade’, scheduled to hold from January 27th to 31st, 2025, at the church auditorium in Ibadan-Lalupo, Eleshin-Godogbo Blo Olosne, Prophet Olagunju emphasized that the theme of the event, ‘Arise, Shine,’ reflects God’s desire to lift Nigeria out of its current challenges.
He expressed optimism about Nigeria’s divine destiny, stating, “Nigeria holds a special place in the heart of God, and despite our challenges, His purpose for the nation will come to pass.”
Prophet Olagunju described Nigeria as a nation abundantly blessed by God but yet to fully harness its potential.
“I have never seen any country as blessed as Nigeria. We are a wonder to the world, but we are yet to maximize the opportunities God has invested in us,” he remarked.
He attributed the country’s struggles to mismanagement and insincerity on the part of past administrations, adding that many developed nations do not possess half of Nigeria’s resources, yet they have made significant progress through effective governance and accountability.
The prophet urged Nigerians to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stating that the current administration is on the right path but requires the cooperation and patience of citizens.
“We must support President Tinubu because he is trying his best to right the wrongs of the past. Things have deteriorated so much that it will take time and perseverance to rebuild the nation,” he said.
Prophet Olagunju further charged church leaders to speak truth to power and focus on preparing their congregations for heaven rather than chasing material wealth and fame.
He warned ministers who have strayed from their divine calling in pursuit of riches and influence, emphasizing that the primary mission of the church should be the salvation of souls.
“If we do not prioritize the salvation of our members and instead focus solely on deliverance, healing, and prosperity, we risk leaving them in the perpetual bondage of sin, sickness, and the devil’s torment,” he cautioned.
Citing the Bible, he added, “If you know the truth, the truth shall set you free.”
He stressed that the ultimate truth is Jesus Christ, who welcomes anyone with a repentant heart and offers eternal companionship.
