Prophet David Owuor of the Repentance and Holiness Ministry has challenged leaders in Kisumu to fear God.
He said exhibiting fear for the Lord would make the county prosper.
Prophet Owuor said vices such as corruption have take a tall on the county and the country insisting that such wrongs can be effectively fought through prayer.
“Corruption is caused by moral decay. If we bring up our children in a Godly manner, they will fear the Lord and eventually no one will dare engage in corruption,” said the Prophet.
He said leaders should be on the fore front perpetuating good morals.
“A repentant and God-fearing person is an easier person to manage and engage with,” he said.
He was speaking at the Jomo Kenyatta Sports Ground in Kisumu on Saturday during a Pastors and Bishops conference.
The conference was attended by among other leaders, Kisumu Governor Jack Ranguma.
The Prophet urged the governor to continue serving the people of Kisumu in a Godly manner, assuring him that God will reward him with a second term in office after the 2017 general election.
