Doyin Okupe disagrees with Osinbajo saying prayers and fasting alone cannot grow Nigeria

Former media aide to former president Jonathan, Doyin Okupe, says he disagrees with acting President Yemi Osinbajo, who says prayer and fasting alone cannot help grow Nigeria if the needed hardwork is not put into it. Osinbajo said this when he spoke with some civil servants in Abuja on Wednesday May 24th.

    3. The bible says; "Faih without work is dead". For example: You cannot fast and pray to pass an exam without reading for the exam. You have to work hard by reading hard for the exam to exercise your faith in God

    4. What does this corrupt thief know about God? No wonder they were busy using our money to pay fake prophets to pray and fast for them to win elections without working hard for Nigeria to move forward and they obviously failed. Do you think you can bribe God? Fools

  16. Mr. Okupe tehe VP did not anyway condemn Prayer nor Fasting. His point: Prayer and Fasting alone is not enough! Even the Bible tells that 'Faith without work is dead'. If you fast and pray without backing it up with the necessary action how would expect result? Praying and Fasting alone cannot help in any situation whether for Nigeria as a country unless there are policies that promotes economic growth. Same goes for individuals, when you are searching for employment, you don't just pray and fast, there are actions that need to be taken such as looking up job adverts, applying, preparing for and showing up at interviews. Those are what God looks out for, your faith and your efforts you made and He will surely bless it. Thank you.

  21. what VP simply said was that prayer and fasting alone cant move us forward and he never underestimated their relevance.so simple.it beat me why mr Okupe cant see this.

  22. I don't blame him. That was how they were working in the last regime. Instead of them working hard they kept on deceiving Jonathan with prayer and fasting while a lot of funds were going into individual hands without caution, and finally disappointed the man.

  23. Mr Okupe apparently didn't interpret the VP accurately. Oshinbajo says, prayer alone cannot bring success. You need hard work as well. Okupe says hardwork alone cannot bring success, you also need prayers. They're are both saying the same thing in different order.

  26. Faith Without Works Is Dead - James 2 14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

  28. "For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat. For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, but busybodies. Now such persons we command and encourage in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living". -2 Thessalonians 3:10-12

  29. What Mr. Doyin Okupe blindly omitted in the passage is that before that verse, they were asked to dig ditches that water flowed into. That was their part to be done.

  35. Osinbajo may be a pastor, but I can categorically say that he does not know God or his capabilities. There is nothing God cannot do. My eyes have seen his glory. God can turn Nigeria around even though it may not be over night. Many of u when u finally find out what is going on in the world; u will know that God is able. A lot is going on in the world but all of u are too blind to c it.
