General Muhoozi Kainerugaba has sparked debate after criticising pastors who make people fall during prayer sessions, questioning whether the practice truly reflects God’s power.“No pastor can make me fall down. Maybe, I’ll make them fall down. God is not interested in making people fall down. That is rubbish,” Muhoozi posted on X.
His remarks have attracted attention because some churches associate falling during prayer with the manifestation of the Holy Spirit.While some Christians consider the experience a sign of spiritual power, others question whether falling should be treated as proof of God’s presence.Muhoozi’s comments have reignited discussions about religious practices and the different ways Christians understand spiritual experiences.His statement was a direct expression of his personal views, although he did not identify any particular pastor in the quoted message.
The remarks could attract mixed reactions from religious leaders and believers, especially those who defend the practice during prayer and deliverance services.Muhoozi’s message has added a new voice to the debate over whether falling during prayer is a genuine spiritual experience or a practice that deserves closer examination.
