Prophetic Word to Nigeria: APC 2023, the Gideon Anointing on Peter Obi, a New Promise

As far back as April 2021, I began to share in private meetings with close associates and Ministers I had personal meetings with, about the 2023 Presidential Elections and Nigeria.

In these meetings, I shared how The LORD showed me that Nigeria would go through three presidential seasons under the APC Government from 2015-2019, 2019-2023 and 2023-2027, and what the nature of these presidential seasons would bring.

However, as by The Instruction of The LORD, I released a public Word on the 14th of May, 2022 as a Prophetic Broadcast addressed to The Church in Nigeria that was published on Ministries of Abel Praise Youtube Channel and Transcribed on His Kingdom Prophecy website, regarding the 2023 Nigerian Presidential Elections.

Please visit “Prophetic Word: The 2023 Nigerian Presidential Elections” to watch the video and the transcript as published on the 14th of May, 2022.

True to The Prophetic Word, The APC Presidential Candidate was declared as President Elect after such a shambolic electoral process on the 1st of March, 2023.

This may seem as a loss, however, The Spirit of The LORD has instructed me to write another important prophetic word to The Body of Christ in Nigeria that will be key to understanding how The LORD is moving in this time.

The Prophetic Picture of the 2023-2027 Presidential Season

As in the previous presidential seasons, I have been honored to be visited by The LORD and shown that would be the experience in the Nation during the reign of the incoming presidents through the 2015-2019 and 2019-2023 season, and they have been precise to the letter.

In February 2023, The LORD granted me another significant revelation regarding what the experience in the Nation will be during the 2023-2027 presidential season, The Archangel of Nigeria visited me in my dream in February 2023 and began to speak to me about what Nigeria would experience in this Presidential Season beginning in 2023.

First he said, “The Old Naira and New Naira will be allowed to circulate freely until the old one phases out.”

Secondly he said, “Money would begin to flow into the country from outside the country.”

Thirdly, “I saw that a Crisis would emerge from Zaria Kaduna, because there would be Ichabod in Zaria Kaduna and I saw the bank closed in Zaria Kaduna”.

I saw that this crisis that would begin in Zaria Kaduna, because of “Ichabod” will attempt to spread to other areas in the Nation. However, I was shown that certain places in the Nation remained safe.

The Gideon Anointing on Peter Obi for the 2023 Elections

In the Prophetic Broadcast I published in May 14th , 2022 regarding the elections I referenced above, I talked about how Nigeria was in a Judges 6 season, and through this season The LORD was now moving to raise up a Gideon, through whom a Gideon Company would emerge that will begin to push back the Midianites.

“And there came an angel of The LORD, and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites. And the angel of The LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour. And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if The LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not The LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now The LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites. And The LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?” Judges 6:11-14

When I released this word for publication by the instruction of The LORD on 14th May, 2022, the political dynamics in the country was yet between APC and PDP.

Peter Obi was still a member of the PDP, and aspiring to be the flagbearer, neither was it known that he would decamp to Labor Party and receive the mandate to run as The Presidential Flagbearer of Labor Party — so at this time, I personally had no idea who this Gideon was, nor who this Gideon company would be — until the political dynamics began to shift in the Nation, barely two weeks after I published this Word.

About a week before Peter Obi publicly resigned from The PDP — I had a Dream.

( Note that Peter Obi resigned from PDP on the 25th May, 2022 and emerged Labor Party Flagbearer on 30th May, 2022. )

In that Dream, I saw Peter Obi seated within the PDP, and he began to speak to me saying he was going to “Labor”, I must say that at that point I didn’t know what he meant.

What happened next in the dream was this, as soon as Peter Obi stood up from being seated amongst the PDP and walked away from them, I saw two airplanes flying in the air that belonged to the PDP fall and crash. End of Dream.

I woke up from this Dream perplexed and praying for understanding, then The LORD began to connect very important dots regarding what was now being orchestrated by The LORD.

On the 16th February 2019, about a week before the Presidential Elections in 2019 where Peter Obi ran as a vice presidential candidate under Atiku Abubakar, I had a profound Vision.

In thatVvision, I saw Peter Obi walking out from Atiku Abubakar, as one being separated from him, then I heard a voice saying regarding Atiku Abubakar, about how much he is into the sorcery of marabouts.

On the 21st of October, 2022, in a Dream, The LORD showed me two very vicious demonic beings who had walked into the Nation with Atiku Abubakar and they were on a mission to cause an ethnic crisis that would cost the Nation a great trouble and a long time to recover if they were allowed to sit on the rock — Asorock.

Then The LORD began to show me that Peter Obi was raised up in this time as one with The Gideon Anointing and his first assignment would be — to be The Divine Intervention of The LORD that prevents an Atiku Abubakar presidency that would certainly plunge the nation into an ethnic crisis.

Like Gideon, his first assignment after being called by The LORD was to raise and lead a people that pushed back the encroachment of the Midianites into their land, it was after Gideon succeeded in this mission that he was then called to rule over Israel as King.

“Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian,” Judges 8:2.

The LORD in His Righteousness and Justice does not break His ordinances of righteousness, yet in great mercies, The LORD keeps the wicked from overstepping their allotted time and bounds.

Three presidential cycles had been determined to come through the APC Government.

The LORD God Almighty heard the cries of His People and rose in divine intervention to forbid a very vicious Ethnic Crisis that would have engulfed the Nation should an Atiku Abubakar Presidency be allowed to come in — by raising up a Gideon in Peter Obi — whose candidacy effectively defeated the presidential ambition of Atiku Abubakar.

This is a very big Victory The LORD handed over the Nation, one we must begin to discern and be thankful for — because we do not know how much destruction The LORD has forestalled from taking place in the Nation.

The Promise of a New Era of Righteous Leadership

This brings us to a moment of significant promise — the end of the three presidential cycles determined for The APC will bring Nigeria into a moment of Divine Opportunity to come into an Era of Righteousness and Righteous Leadership like never before.

“Then the angel of The LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years? And The LORD answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words. So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith The LORD of hosts, I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy,” Zechariah 1:12-14

In July 2022, I was brought into a significant experience in a dream, I saw The Angel of Nigeria, he had been asked by The LORD about the state of things in Nigeria.

In the Dream, I knew by The Spirit of The LORD that his answer to The LORD was this, “We are the ones to decide if there will be a military intervention.”

The LORD began to make me understand and bring this Counsel to The Leadership in The Church in Nigeria, that this is the time we begin to war regarding the next era of leadership that is to emerge in this country.

We have been trained to wait till the electoral process begins, before we begin praying and warring, however, decisions are made regarding leadership long before the elections seasons.

The question is, have we always prevailed as at when we ought to?

Have we been there to stand in the gap to resist when Satan goes to present his candidate for leadership far before the whole election season begins?

The LORD is calling us to awaken at this hour.

The Nation Nigeria will have a profound divine opportunity to set the course for righteous leadership to emerge over the course of another generation as the tenure of wickedness fulfills its time.

There is a Gideon Anointing on Peter Obi, and The LORD has used his Candidacy in the 2023 Presidential elections to stop the Midianite that would have brought the curse of an Ethnic Crisis from being President.

However, the mandate of Gideon didn’t stop at pushing back the Midianite, after Gideon gained victory over the Midianite, he was then called upon to be The King.

“Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian.” Judges 8:22

There is a great promise, and a great moment of redemption that is set before us, and as the divine opportunity is presented, we must prevail in the heavens at the appointed time, and that time isn’t another election cycle, that time is now, that battle for the next presidential season begins now.

Hence, the call goes forth to a Nation by The Spirit of The LORD, to the Church in Nigeria.

Would you wrestle with God and Man at the time appointed, so we can secure a future in Righteousness and receive the blessing of Righteous Leadership ahead of the Next Presidential Season?

The cry of my heart is that The Spirit of The LORD would bring us understanding, insight that we need to win the battle for the future that will now begin to present itself to us.
