church choir contributed to my success – Okowa
Governor Ifeanyi Okowa has attributed the success of his administration to God’s intervention through the Government House Chapel’s choir.
He spoke during the launch of a musical album produced by the choir in Asaba on Tuesday.
Okowa explained that one of the greatest legacies he would bequeath to Governor-elect Sheriff Oborevwori would be the presence of God at the Government House.
“We thank God that our governor-elect and his deputy are here. The greatest asset that I will leave for you both is the presence of God in the Government House. The greatest desire of my wife and I is to see the fire on this altar glow and burn continually,” said the Delta governor.
He added, “Pressures will come, and all manner of confusing voices will come but resist them and make sure that you reverence God.”
The governor advised Mr Oborevwori to remain divinely connected to God by doubling their efforts to worship God as they prepared to take over the state’s leadership mantle.
He further noted that through purposeful worshiping of God, challenges would be surmounted, stressing that the album would help significantly advance the gospel of God, and urged worshipers to encourage the choristers by purchasing copies.
“This choir needs to be encouraged because I know that through their voices, the praises and worship they render in this place, a lot has happened to this state,” noted the governor. “We may not appreciate it, but my wife and I know that we believe in the presence of God in this chapel. We are very mindful that our God is present in this place, and whenever we call on Him, He answers us.”
