The Bishop of Torit Catholic Diocese Emmanuel Bernardino Lowi has encouraged the faithful to overcome challenges through prayers.
Bishop while preaching to the faithful during the Easter celebration advises Christians not to sleep before prayers.
He underscored when people sleep without prayers Satan will move around their beds causing bad dreams.
The Catholic prelates however encourage Christians to acquaint themselves in prayers so that their children will grow with strong faith in Christ.
” No Christian should sleep without praying because when you sleep that is another Satan, Satan will move around your bed and will bring bad dreams.
“You will not sleep well adopt yourself in prayer let your message start with prayer in your house, you should have time to pray, time to give a message to other people and children who will be coming from a prayerful house this child will fear God.”
The Church leader further calls on the faithful to leave their suffering aside and rather do their best in glorifying the name of God the Father.
He urges parents to teach their children how to pray so that children will grow well without worries
“We may have some difficult challenges leave them aside do the best for the lord and once we allow God to be glorified in us like in the choir when you glorify God with your songs we will be sanctified in him as he also blesses all of us”
“Let your children learn how to pray in the house because you parent once you allow your children really to be faithful you will never be worried even though you are not there in the future you will know that this child will go well.”
The Catholic bishop prays that the resurrection of the lord helps people who give testimony to others.
He mentioned that the word Christian does not only end in the word but should reflect in the body of the person doing charitable work.
“May the resurrection of the Lord Jesus help us to be new people, people of faith, people who give testimony to the people, people when people see they say yes these are Christians these are people of Jesus, let people see us from our talks, they talk like Christians, they behave like Christians that exactly what God wants from us.”
