  1. PLEASE READ PSALMS 37: AND COMPARE WITH WHAT IS OBTAINING IN ZAMBIA TODAY? HOW CAN ONE LEAD INTO PRAYERS WHEN YOU ARE LOCKING UP YOUR OPPONENTS IN JAIL WITHOUT CAUSE?
    JEWS WERE IN CAPTIVE AND WERE ASKED TO SING A SONG AND DANCE WHEN THEY WERE IN OPPRESS IN ZION.THEY SAID HOW CAN WE SING AND PRAISE THE LORD…. PSALMS 137; PLEASE READ IT AND CHECK WITH WHAT THESE PF LEADERS ARE DOING. NO SHAME.
    By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept
    when we remembered Zion.
    2 There on the poplars
    we hung our harps,
    3 for there our captors asked us for songs,
    our tormentors demanded songs of joy;
    they said, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”

    4 How can we sing the songs of the Lord
    while in a foreign land?
    5 If I forget you, Jerusalem,
    may my right hand forget its…

  2. A NORMAL AND TRUE FAITHFUL CHRISTIAN CAN NOT BE PART OF THIS GATHERING. WHY IS LT REMOVING MY COMMENTS? HH HAS BEEN SURMONED BY POLICE JUST FINDING HIMSELF IN KASAMA AND STEPPING DOWN IN MPIKA, KAMBWILI IS ARRESTED, AND TOMORROW YOU CHEAT PEOPLE WITH A WORLD OF RECONCILIATION. WHO TO RECONCILE WHO WHEN YOU YOURSELVES HAVE NO SPIRIT OF RECONCILIATION?

    STILL PEOPLE MUST READ PSALM 137 AND COMPARE WITH WHAT IS HAPPENING TODAY

  3. It makes sense to move it to a more open area in light of the evil Corona virus. We humbly appeal for cross party attendance especially taking into account how close we are to elections. Only demon possessed parties will yet again shun these prayers. Please note that those in diaspora can also partake via video stream. Evil upnd diasporans this is your chance to clean yourselves from the evil in you

  4. Muli fipuba , how can you gather for religious rally in doors at Mulungushi?
    You should not be campaigning with those rallies during corona virus.

  5. When it’s feasting and playing only the inner circle is invited, now its prayer and fasting it’s come one come all.

  6. Amen, we will Pray. It should be noted that only Satan refuses to bow his knee to God and worship and he himself wants this worship. Anyone or group therefore that refuse to humble themselves in prayer before God are following a satanic stance. Those who refuse therefore expose themselves to be satanists.

  7. 2 Chronicles 7
    14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

  8. 100% God is not going to hear our prayers. God does not hear prayers not offered according to His will. God does not entertain lip service. This is not a national prayer that will bring glory to God. For 5 years now, Zambia has been asking for prosperity but has been sliding into debt. That is the truth. You can jump and make noise and spiritualize nothing will happen. My people perish for lack of knowledge because people are not doing what the Word says.

  9. The theme ati, Zambia seeks God’s intervention for sustained national unity, peace and prosperity”. Who is seeking God’s intervention, when your actions do not support what you’re saying. How do we prosper yet we are spending like we are Bill Gates son. Your decision making is poor and you want the Lord to forsake all that and bless Zambia. This ministry should be the first one to go because quite honestly it is on top of the many useless ministries we have in Zambia. If a ministry cannot generate any income , why the heck is is there ?
