Rhema Christian Church and Towers, Otta, is set to usher worshippers into the new year with prayers for peace, restoration and divine direction as it hosts its highly anticipated Bethel Peace Day Service on Sunday, 25 January 2026.
The service will take place at Champion Peace Cathedral, along the Lagos–Abeokuta Expressway, Temidire, Sango Otta, and is scheduled to begin promptly at 3:00 p.m., with church leaders describing it as a “moment of divine encounter” for individuals, families and the nation at large.
According to the church, the Bethel Peace Day Service is a prophetic gathering designed to help worshippers seek God’s face for peace, spiritual renewal, increase and all-round restoration as they step into the new year.
“This is not just another church programme; it is a call to align with God’s agenda for peace and restoration,” a statement from Rhema Christian Church said. “We believe God is set to meet His people in a special way.”
The programme will be preceded by a Bethel Vigil on Friday, 24 January 2026, which will commence at 11:00 p.m., creating an atmosphere of intense prayer and waiting on the Lord ahead of the main service.
Participants attending the vigil have been encouraged to come with seven prayer points for the year, symbolising their expectations and areas where they seek divine intervention and supernatural breakthroughs.
“As we wait on the Lord together, we trust that clear direction and uncommon testimonies will be released,” the church noted, emphasising the importance of corporate prayer at the start of the year.
Ministering at the Bethel Peace Day Service are Archbishop Dr. Taiwo Akinola and Bishop Mrs. Iretioluwa Akinola, both of whom are expected to deliver inspired messages and prayers focused on peace, purpose and restoration.
Speaking ahead of the programme, the church leadership urged members of the public to attend with faith and high expectations.
“When God’s people gather in unity and belief, lives are transformed,” the statement said.
The service is open to all, regardless of denomination, and organisers say it is particularly timely given the desire for peace and stability in personal lives, communities and the nation.
With the theme centred on peace and divine renewal, the Bethel Peace Day Service is expected to draw worshippers from across Otta and its environs, all seeking a fresh start and spiritual strengthening for the year ahead.
Members of the public are invited to come expectant and come believing, trusting God for a life-changing encounter.
