There's a future PM among you, Cameron tells black majority prayer rally

by Hannah Tooley

The Prime Minister attended the Redeemed Christian Church of God event on Friday evening, where he received a rapturous reception from the 45,000 strong congregation.

"I believe in aspiration. I believe the only limit to someone's potential is their own ambition and talent. I look out to this crowd and I see someone who will hold my role and become Prime Minister for this great country.

"I hope you can hold off for a while just yet," he jokingly added.

Mr Cameron also spoke to the thousands of Christians in attendance about his belief in the 'Big Society' and the importance of family and community: "It is an honour to be here and I'm proud of this festival which started as a camp just off the Lagos expressway and set the world alight.

"For me tonight is about one thing - it's about family. You're here with your own family, parents and children, siblings and cousins, aunts and uncles and you're united with your spiritual family - old friends, dear friends, people we've known for many years.

"And together we are all part of one family - as Jesus said with his arms outstretched with his arms to his disciples - here are my mother and my brothers, for whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother, my sister and my mother.

"And that is what we are, as God's children we are all one big family."

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
