Only God can give peace, not government – Bishop Oyedepo

Founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, has said that no government can guarantee lasting peace for its people, noting that true peace can only be found in God.

Speaking during a church service in Warri, Delta State, Oyedepo urged believers not to rely on earthly institutions for inner peace, stressing that peace is a divine gift that only God can provide.

“No government in this world can give you peace, neither can you find it in the market. It is only God that can give you peace,” the cleric said.

According to him, while governments can provide security and governance, genuine peace of mind and lasting tranquility come from a personal relationship with God.

His remarks came as he encouraged worshippers to deepen their faith and seek God’s presence in their daily lives.
