In a rather stern manner, the founder and senior cleric of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua has given a divine warning to those who are bent on troubling the conduct of the 2019 general election in Nigeria, just as he stated that those who desire peace for the nation during and after the elections will also be beneficiaries of peace.
The foremost seer gave this warning during a televised broadcast at the headquarters of the church to millions of the church’s faithful, both within outside the country.
Prophet Joshua, known for the depth and accuracy of his predictions, went a step further to insist that Nigeria shares a special bond with God.
Months and weeks before the commencement of the 2019 general election, there have been fear of violence expected to trail the election to take place across the country. But as a balm meant to calm frayed nerves, the prophet called on all to be calm, insisting that God is interested in the welfare of Nigeria.
According to him, “I want to tell you that no matter the situation, be calm. God is in control. Those who will cause trouble will see trouble and those who will cause peace will see peace.”
He went further to caution that the elections would generate a lot of controversies and that there would be palpable fear across the country, but that God would show himself mightily and that everyone would give God his due respect after the whole exercise.
“After the elections, there will be a lot situations on ground. To the ordinary eyes, it will look very fearful. When the cloud is darker, it’s about to rain. Everyone will start running so that you can get home before the rain. That is the situation we are going to face in Nigeria. You see the clouds so dark as if it’s about to rain, but suddenly the dark cloud disappears. You now say, ‘God is great’. You will respect God more after your election,” he said.
It will be recalled that the prophet had predicted in 2016 how the Spanish nation of Venezuela would experience some political upheaval.
The prophecy, three years after, saw fulfilment last month.
Prophet Joshua further warned that “When you come out to cause trouble, panic, you yourself will see that trouble. But if you come out with peace, you will see peace.”
He added that the position of Nigeria in the comity of nations in Africa is central. According to him, Africa’s existence remains intricately tied to the wellbeing of Nigeria, just as he added that Nigeria enjoys a remarkable bond with God.
“If anything happens to this country called Nigeria, that is the end of Africa. Therefore, God almighty will never allow anything to happen. You will see many things that will make you fear but this nation has a very strong bond with God. If the people of Nigeria want to cause trouble, they will cause trouble for themselves but the nation Nigeria will stand. Nobody can shake this country; it is a very strong country. It has a very strong bond with God,” he stated.
