Actor Emeka Shades Pastor Adeboye Over Controversial Prayer

POSTED ON February 17, 2024 •   Entertainment      BY Ebiakuboere England

Nollywood actor, Emeka Amakaeze has called out Pastor Enoch Adeboye over his controversial prayer against Christians from other churches.

Adeboye led a stirring prayer in a video clip from the church's 2021 youth convention that went viral.

Adeboye summoned a similar devotion, citing the biblical tale of how the prophet's sons bowed before Elisha after he got the double part of Elijah's power.

He ardently wished that Christians of other denominations would kneel before his church in humility.

His words; “I decree in the name that is above every other name, Christians from other denominations will bow before you”.

The congregation responded with resounding amens.

The controversial prayer was discussed in a blog post, to which actor Emeka Amakaeze responded with dismay.

He bemoaned the fact that, amid the nation's tremendous suffering, Christians in the video appeared to be more interested in loudly applauding Adeboye's prayer than in seeing other Christians bend down to them.

Amakaeze brought up the critical problems that society is currently suffering, like famine, kidnappings, and terrorist activity, and she suggested that these pressing issues should receive more attention and action.

Emeka Amakaeze wrote; “Upon all the hardship in Naija, Christians are shouting thunderous Amen to other Christians bowing before them.

Hunger, kidnappers, and terrorists can finish you as long as other Christians bow before you. O dị mma.”

This is coming a few days after the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) General overseer came under fire for saying that Nigeria is facing more than mere political problems that require spiritual solutions.
