Abuja, Sept. 11, 2025 (NAN) Gospel singer Lily Perez, on Tuesday , ministered in music at the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Abuja, delivering soul-lifting praise and worship sessions.
The event drew hundreds of worshippers, who sang along as Perez performed several original tracks, including Eyin Nikan, Amazing God, and You Do Mind-Blowing Things.
Perez, known for her message-driven gospel music, said her songs are written to communicate God’s unconditional love and grace.
“The Gospel is not a threat message,” she said.
“It is a love letter to anyone who believes in Jesus Christ, the begotten Son of the Father.”
She added that the struggles of many Nigerian Christians stem from a lack of revelation about the finished work of Christ.
“The issue is not fewer prayers or shortage of pastors,” she said.
“The real gap is in knowledge — knowing that we are not just servants of God, but sons and daughters who serve a loving Father.”
Lily Perez also spoke against the idea of a wrathful God, urging believers to understand His love.
“God is not angry with you,” she said.
“He is madly in love with you — love you enough to die for.”
