Malawi should turn to God for forgiveness over sin – Preacher

A presbterian preacher in central region tobacco growing district of Kasungu has called on Malawians to pray ceaseless to God for forgiveness, saying the current dry spell is a result of sin.

Reverend Ronald Chimzimu of Kanthera CCAP in Kasungu prayed for rains on Sunday, a day after state sponsored national prayers in Lilongwe called by President Peter Mutharika.

“Forgive us, our Lord. We have sinned as a nation,” said the church clerk without saying the sins Malawians have committed deserving the dry spell.

However, at the national day of prayer on Sunday, the men of God alleged Malawi is a sinful country because it is allowing homosexuality and God is angry.

Weather expert Elina Kululanga from the Meteorological Department and Climate Change said the prolonged dry spell in some parts of the country is as a result of El Nino, a weather phenomen blamed for prolonged dry spells and devastating areas in some areas.

Oxfarm and UNICEF said El Nino would be worse in Somalia, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe and Malawi.

Commenting Dedza east MP Juliana Lunguzi and economist Henry Kachaje said the best way for Malawi to get out of its food shortage due to prolonged dry spells is to initiate an irrigation project from Lake Malawi.

Lunguzi said it was disappointing that even donors were reluctant to fund an irrigation project just for her constituency, a few metres away from Lake Malawi.

However, in Kasungu, Reverend Chimzimu told his congregation God will continue punishing Malawi through the withholding of rainfall until Malawians repent.

@Concern and James Uhuru,
Do you know why I can curse any god (whether its the Xstianity one, or allah or HIndu)? Coz they are ALL imaginary! If this scare tactic worked on you when you were in nappies, dont think for once that everybody will be scared when you mention any of your imaginary friends! Uhuru you are so consumed /brainwashed like a child who says ” mommy I need to behave otherwise father Xmas wont give me a present,!” That’s how pathetic you sound Uhuru! A brainwashed adult who have never overcome his childhood fears).

I hadn’t realized that it was homosexuals who were responsible for deforestation, poor soil and water management, over-sweeping, over-grazing, erosion, lack of mulching, burning, monocropping, the establishment of coal-burning power plants, devastation of watershed areas, oil drilling, the burning of fossil fuels, carbon emissions, acidification of our rain and oceans, eutrophication, pollution, and many other environmentally un-friendly practices that affect climate change, rainfall patterns, and the recharging of the nation’s water tables. Human sexuality has very little to do with the ethical and moral responsibility that we, as a human race, have to respect the Creator by protecting, preserving, and… Read more »

Where the wise become wisest in the ends fooling oneself. There was national prayer for the rains attended by various interdenominational. This where politicians loses it all and people read between the lines of characteristicsof the party and it’s leadership. how can God hear our prayers if turn them as battle field for politics. I see politics playing it’s hidden agenda on the rains. what is required here is kudzichepetsa kotheratu other than politicising these Godly congregation. Right from secular leadership to religious leadership. Dzichepetseni inu atsogoleri a mipingo you are behind misunderstanding of politicians because of your affiliations to… Read more »

God heal our nation. There are those that are making things worse by being contemptuous about Your greatness and Holiness through acts of blasphemy. You are the Creator of heaven and earth. All things in heaven and on earth were created by You. Forgive us all as a nation for moral decadence and here we are now insulting Your name and holding You in thoughtless contempt. You are a Sovereign and Holy God who is slow to anger and abounding in love. You do not repay us according to what our evil works deserve but you patiently await our repentance… Read more »

I urge Tt to repent his evident sin urgently. It is not safe to curse God. I know that you do not know what you are talking about. Whether you know it or you don’t you are bringing calamity into your family and of course yourself which will yield deep anguish apart from eternal domination. You must repent your sin immediately and and invite Jesus Christ as your Saviour. He is a Son of God and Himself God. Once you come to Him in humility your sin will be forgiven.Alternatively, avail yourself a Godly pastor to pray for you and… Read more »

The blood of Njaunju too is crying unto the Lord.
The stealing of elections God is not happy.
And if you can recall, the Southern Region is the worst hit by all these calamities.
And now these young men hired by the US gouvernmnent to pretend they are gay yet they are not. By the way since this gay issue started, I haven’t come accross of lesbians, ndekuti atsikana akukana zonyasazi?
