Like Zambia, Kenya needs divine intervention

It is a tired call, but a call we must not be tired of —the call to prayer. While many may dismiss it as merely escapist, it is nonetheless an appreciation that there are things that only God can deal — issues that require divine intervention. That is why I was deeply impressed when Ambassador Brenda Muntemba, the Zambia High Commissioner to Kenya, came to our church last Sunday to enlist our support for a prayer initiative for her nation, as decreed by her president. In the written declaration, President Edgar Chagwa Lungu has proclaimed Sunday, October 18, 2015 as the day of Repentance, Prayer and Fasting to be observed throughout Zambia.

Furthermore, all the diplomatic missions abroad have been directed to mobilise Zambians and friends of Zambia to join in the prayer day within their countries of residence.
