Dimapur, Oct. 21 (EMN): The Council of Nagalim Churches (CNC) has asked the Naga public and all the churches to “ceaselessly and fervently pray to God for his intervention, protection and deliverance” in view of the current perilous situation.
In a statement made available to the media on Monday, CNC made “a clarion call to fasting and prayer for Nation” and requests all the regions, brigades, battalions and units of NCSN and all the churches and individuals in Nagalim to seriously observe a day of fasting and prayer on October 23.
The council has requested the people to pray ‘for protection of the identity, history, and political rights of the Nagas, to let Naga people submit to the will of God, for Indian leaders to let them respect and recognise the God given flag and constitution of Nagalim, for chief negotiator Th Muivah and the talk team to let God grant them good health, sound mind and wisdom and for positive outcome of the formal talk to be held on October 24 between NSCN and GoI.’
“Let us fast and pray as long as we are able to, because the destiny of our nation depends on us. May the Lord lead us on this crucial day of fasting & prayer for our Naga nation that we are to undertake!” read the statement.
