Uniting Nigeria Through Faith: Evangelist John Kola-Idowu Dedicates Psalms 1-150 in Hausa and Igbo

It was a moment of reflection and renewed hope on Saturday as Evangelist John Kola-Idowu addressed members of the press during a special briefing on the dedication of Psalms 1-150 in Hausa and Igbo. With warmth and conviction, he spoke about the power of scripture in fostering unity and spiritual growth across Nigeria. This milestone follows the earlier dedication of the Psalms in Yoruba and English, reinforcing a mission to ensure that God’s word reaches every heart in a language they understand.

The Psalms are not just verses; they are songs of faith, prayers of hope, and declarations of God’s promises. Evangelist Kola-Idowu emphasized that the dedication of these translations in Hausa and Igbo is a step towards breaking barriers and building bridges of understanding and harmony among people from different backgrounds. The significance of making these sacred texts available in Nigeria’s major languages ensures deeper spiritual engagement for millions who now have the opportunity to connect with the Psalms in their native tongues.

Nigeria’s diversity has often been seen as a source of division, but Evangelist Kola-Idowu views it as a blessing. He highlighted how faith can serve as a unifying force, bringing together people beyond tribal and cultural differences. He pointed to scripture as a testament to the power of unity, emphasizing that when people of different ethnic backgrounds worship and pray in their own languages, they are reminded of their shared faith in one God who desires peace and harmony for all.

Amidst Nigeria’s ongoing challenges, including insecurity, economic hardship, and political instability, Evangelist Kola-Idowu stressed that the Psalms provide a source of divine strength and encouragement. He urged Nigerians to embrace these sacred songs not just as scripture but as a guiding force in their daily lives. By internalizing the Psalms, individuals can find hope in difficult times, direction in moments of uncertainty, and the strength to navigate personal and national struggles.

Addressing the role of young people in shaping the nation’s future, he underscored the importance of their spiritual foundation. When young people are deeply rooted in faith, they become catalysts for positive change. He encouraged churches, schools, and families to integrate these Psalms into worship and teachings, ensuring that future generations grow up with a strong moral compass. The spiritual growth of the youth is essential in preserving national values and fostering a future built on righteousness and integrity.

As Evangelist Kola-Idowu concluded his address, he called on all Nigerians to embrace the Psalms as a means of fostering love, peace, and unity. He prayed that these sacred texts would inspire wisdom among leaders, provide strength to elders, and guide the younger generation toward a path of righteousness. He expressed hope that this dedication would mark the beginning of a new era where faith serves as a powerful tool for national progress and harmony.
