EMASWATI URGED TO SEEK PEACE THEY ONCE HAD
LOZITHA – It is not a secret that Emaswati have long been known for being peace-loving, according to some of the preachers during the national prayer, yet they no longer have it.
The national prayer, which is held as the first event at the beginning of the year, took place at Mandvulo Grand Hall. The hall is situated at Lozitha Palace. Between 1 000 and 2 000 people attended the event, including people who were outside the hall.
Reverend Sipho Tembe was the first to preach of the four preachers who were given the podium on the day. Tembe started by praising Their Majesties for the event, which was also attended by the former President of South Africa (SA), Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma. Zuma is also the head of the Umkhonto WeSizwe (MK) political party, which is currently embroiled in a legal battle over that country’s elections.
The political party believes that the organisation was the rightful winner of the 2024 Elections, beating the current majority party, the African National Congress (ANC). Tembe said the theme of the day was taken from the Bible book of Jeremiah 29:7, which reads: “Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper”.
He said the Bible encourages that believers should seek peace. However, he said the verse also advises that one should seek peace again. He said one cannot seek something that he or she does not know. Tembe said for Emaswati to seek peace, they should have known what it looks like. He also quoted Ephesians 5:20, which states: “Giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
The preacher also reminded emaSwati that even though the country has many enemies, they can be defeated, not by fighting them, but by giving thanks to God. He said when people give gratitude to God, he fights on their behalf. Tembe then said when emaSwati come together to pray and thank God, their enemies will instead start fighting among themselves.
Meanwhile, it was not just Tembe who urged emaSwati to seek peace. Others who preached, such as Reverend Grace Masilela, also stated the same.
