“But the beauty of the 2021 Convention is the theme, which is “I Will Heal Your Land”.
“This is not only divine, but speaks to the present situation across the globe.
Igwe said that the theme, taken from II Chronicles 7 vs 14, “is an indication that God is set to put an end to the scourge in the land”.
He said: “This great promise of God could not have come at any better time than now that our nation and other nations of the world are suffering untold hardships.
“Apart from failing economies orchestrated by the global lockdown of economic activities, there are also cases of attacks, kidnappings, banditry, and rape.”
The convention, according to him, will provide a rare opportunity for the Church to cry to God to heal the country.
