Why Benny Hinn went round Charlene Ruto seven times

American televangelist Benny Hinn over the weekend held two crusades at Nyayo Stadium and on Sunday, February 25, 2024, he prayed for President William Ruto's daughter Charlene.

While anointing her, the preacher walked around her seven times and told the congregation that he had been instructed to do so by God to protect Charlene's life.

"The Lord asked me to go around her seven times to protect her life," he said.

Charlene had earlier outlined her call to serve young people in Kenya and Africa at large and asked the preacher to pray for her to achieve her mission.

The preacher obliged, holding her hands as he made a declaration.

He also prayed for Charlene to get the man of her dreams, who would walk with her in her quest to serve the youth.

"I have a call for the young people in our country so I would love God to use me to serve them. I love the young people of this country and Africa so much and I would like God to make a way for me to do whatever it is he wants for the young people of our nation," said Charlene.

"Give her a husband that will fulfil that call with her. Lord send that young man her way, who will be a strength to her, a great support system to her.

"She cannot do this alone Lord, she is going into the battlefield to win souls, to snatch souls away from the enemy's camp. She needs a husband Lord. And she needs him soon," said Pastor Benny.

Adding: "Let him be exactly what she wants....grant it Lord."

The Sunday crusade was attended by President Ruto, First Lady Rachel, DP Rigathi Gachagua, his wife Dorcas, Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja and Woman Representative Esther Passaris, among others.

In his speech, the Head of State said he got a revelation that he would be President in 2006 at the same venue (Nyayo Stadium) and could not believe that a man from Sugoi would one day lead the country.

"I will say this today here in Nyayo Stadium. That's the first time I got a revelation that I was going to be President of Kenya was in 2006 and during the Asuza 100 Celebration of Revival in the US and I was there with my wife and many others.

"I couldn't believe that the son from Sugoi will one day be the president of Kenya," said Ruto.
