Pastor
(Mrs) Fome Kings-Jack, the Founder Convener of Know God More (KGM), an
online Bible study community for women, has called on women to pray for
national peace and unity to build a serene and prosperous society.
She
made the call during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)
on the sidelines of the inaugural fellowship of the group on Sunday in
Abuja.
Kings-Jack
said that prayers remained the key to building a godly and morally
sound society, “which is an antidote to insecurity and violence’’.
She
stressed that women, as mothers and wives, were supposed to be home and
society builders, especially through fervent prayers and intercession.
“Our
roles as women should be to preach and pray to ensure that the peace
and unity of our families, which is the unit of every society, and that
of Nigeria are sustained.
“Peace is priceless because no meaningful development can be achieved in any society without peace and unity.
“Continued
prayers among godly women will promote peaceful co-existence as well as
strengthen the country to overcome all its challenges,” she said.
Kings-Jack
explained that the vision of the KGM, which started some three months
ago, was to inspire Christian women to become more dedicated to their
duties as agents of peace, and build intimate relationship with God.
She
said that within a short time of identifying with the forum, many women
have become more committed to their responsibilities of home and
society building.
“KGM started with less than 20 women, but today we are in our hundreds from more than eight countries around the world.
“We study books given by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, pray in and out of season, and gather at the online assembly by 4:30 every Saturday mornings.
“These
women are growing from strength to strength and becoming more
prayerful, submissive and supportive to their husbands,’’ she said.
