Ven. Dr Egwuonwu reminded Christians that what God says and how they feel about what God says aren’t the same, hence, God gave man dominion over all His creations.

He encouraged Christians to be diligent and thankful to God in all they do in order to prosper more, adding that true children of God should not be despising little things.

He pointed out that pride has messed up the good life God intended for humanity, even as he urged Christians to remove pride and enjoy God’s grace and mercy in the world.

Ven. Dr Egwuonwu further encouraged Christians to shun jealousy, acquire a skill or certificate for God’s intervention as well as trust God’s ability to see them through all situations once they are optimistic.

He advocated for the need for sacrifices for the family, even for the less privileged and the need for one to be disciplined in handling the affairs of God, Church, family while supporting less privileged in society.
