Trust in God, Malawi will Survive the Storm- Chakwera Urges Congregation

President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera has urged Malawians to continue putting their faith in God, seeking his guidance and wisdom in all aspects of life.

Speaking during a Sunday worship service at Monkey Bay Assemblies of God in Mangochi, President Chakwera emphasized the importance of prioritizing spiritual values and focusing on issues that benefit the nation, as Malawi approaches general elections in September this year.

He encouraged Malawians to look beyond personal interests, and start working towards improving the welfare of others, promoting a sense of unity and collective progress.

“I want to encourage Malawians to put God first in all aspects of our lives, because it is through this, that we can cultivate a sense of purpose and morality. As the nation prepares for elections, let us focus on issues that benefit the greater good, and promoting peace and unity,” Chakwera said.

The president also talked of the power of prayer, saying prayer should be a powerful tool in addressing various challenges for the nation’s greater future.

In his remarks, Resident Pastor for Monkey Bay Assemblies of God, Reverend Alexander Chirwa said President Chakwera’s presence at the church service, signifies his dedication to his faith and his willingness to worship alongside congregants.

He added that the church will continue praying for the President and the First Lady for good health.

In his sermon, Chirwa spoke about the journey of life, encouraging congregants to remain focused despite facing spiritual challenges, emphasizing that God has a purpose for every individual.

Monkey Bay Assemblies of God, established in 1990, has over 500 registered members, with Rev. Chirwa serving as the 12th resident pastor since its establishment.
