General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, says Nigeria would have been enmeshed in another civil war, if not for God’s intervention.

Adeboye says the country has been fortunate to enjoy the mercy of God, which is responsible for the relative peace obtainable.

The cleric made the statements on Saturday, during a special programme for the country, at the national headquarters of the RCCG in Ebute-Metta, Lagos.

Adeboye said: “It is possible for a country to be free, but its citizens are not. Nigeria has been free for 55 years, but many of us are not free. If not for God’s intervention, Nigeria would have been in another civil war.

Without His intervention in this land, we would not be experiencing peace. We should keep praying for His peace to reign.”

“We should also keep praying for the President and the Vice President so that in the next one year, in a way we cannot explain it, Nigeria will be celebrated among the nations of the world.

We should also pray for all states in Nigeria so that in the next one year, all of them will also be celebrated.”
