Miracle Ministries Prophetess Joyce Chokotho has asked President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera to call for National Prayers on the deadly pandemic Coronavirus which has so far claimed lives of over 1,300 lives including two Cabinet Ministers.
Chokotho’s call comes weeks after the country started recording a sharp rise in new COVID-19 cases and fatalities.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with faceofmalawi, Chokotho claimed God through late Prophet TB Joshua of Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) appeared to her twice telling her asking Malawians together with the President and his Vice Dr. Saulos Chilima to pray hard and the pandemic will vanish.
“Two days ago when I was in my bedroom, I saw a strange light in one of the walls in the room and as I was trying to ask myself as to what is happening. I saw the face of the departed Prophet TB Joshua putting on black pair of trouser, white shirt while smiling at me.
“He then told me that I should be careful with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, tell Malawians to pray for the pandemic or else all of you will perish because this pandemic is written in the bible,” said Chokotho.
According to Chokotho, after the she took fasting because she didn’t know how the message will be delivered to the intended authorities including the President.
“After the fasting, while seated in my sit roam I heard a voice warning me and the country as whole to pray against the COVID-19, saying Satan is having evil plans against this nation with an aim of denting the emerge of the current leadership. To be honest with you, Chakwera is a good leader but this pandemic will make him look like a failure.
“Now am urging all Malawians and the President himself to pray for the country and this pandemic will vanish and all of us will be free again. This is the work of the devil at play,” added Chokotho.
Effort to talk to Minister of Information Gospel Kazako on the matter proved futile.
So far about 780 Malawians have tested positive for COVID-19 in the past 24 hours with 26 new deaths.
Meanwhile government through the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 has introduced new measures control further spread of the pandemic.
