Nairobi, 20 January, 2024 / 8:45 pm (ACI Africa).
Officials of the Kenya Christian Professionals Forum (KCPF) are calling on those in leadership positions in the country to pay attention to the needs of the underprivileged members of society.
In their reflection on the second day of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity (WPCU) KCPF officials also emphasized the need for those in authority to dispense justice and righteousness, noting that “God calls on everyone to uphold these two qualities.”
“When it comes to those entrusted with power, authority and leadership, God expects them to dispense this privilege with the utmost level of justice and righteousness,” they said in their reflection that was themed ‘For Just and Righteous Leadership in the Country.’
KCPF officials said that God “calls on those in places of authority to especially give keen attention to upholding justice for the poor, the weak and the vulnerable. He also expects them to steward their roles, responsibilities, and resources entrusted to them righteously.”
“The outcome is that God Himself lavishes the land and the people with plenty and bounty. This is in line with the words of our national anthem, “Justice be our Shield and Defender… Plenty be found within our Borders,” the Christian Professionals said.
