The Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Edo State Council, Dr. Festus Alenkhe, recently organized the quarterly Special Prayer and Fasting session, which aims to seek God's protection and blessings for journalists in the state. 

This initiative, which began in January 2022, after Dr. Alenkhe assumed office on December 17, 2021, is designed to provide spiritual support and guidance to members of the union.

Dr. Alenkhe emphasized the importance of seeking God's guidance in all aspects of life, citing the benefits of prayer and faith.

 He shared a personal experience where the union was promised a bus in July 2023 and received it in April 2024,  just a few days after  a prayer session was conducted in his office against  delays  of promises,attributing the swift response to the power of prayer. 

"I urge you all to be prayerful, because God is merciful, and His promises are sure," he said."

In his sermon, Dr. Stanley Osagie, Head Pastor of Living Witness Power and Love Ministry Inc., encouraged journalists to rely solely on God and make prayer a part of their daily lives to navigate the challenges of the world. 

From the Bible readings in Psalm 91 and 79 through verse 11,He prayed for the protection and well-being of all members, especially those whose lives may be programmed for doom 

According to Dr. Osagie, "As God's children, we can only enjoy His convenient blessings when we love Him, have communion with Him, and trust in His saving ability."

The prayer session was a highlight of the gathering, with members coming together to express gratitude for the gift of life and to pray for protection from sudden death and calamity. 

The event concluded with a breaking of the fast, where members shared assorted fruits and food together.
