Earlier in November, the founder of Christ for All Nations called on other believers to pray for him after a surgery.
The CFAN founder had a surgery done on his right femur and according to him, he needs to learn how to walk again.
He wrote: “My dearest prayer partners,” It is my desire to share with you my present situation. I definitely need your prayers, as Paul the Apostle needed it from the early churches for his personal needs.
“Right now, I am in the hospital and have undergone a right femur bone surgery. All has gone well so far, but now I have to add a few weeks of learning to walk again.
” My spirit is rejoicing, especially when I think of you. I have been able to pray for you and your very many needs and am asking you to pray for me now. I will read every reply and thank you in anticipation and in the Name of Jesus”
