In a chat with Legit.ng, Maranatha Ngene shared her experience with the Hallelujah Challenge and advised those willing to join.

She said:

"My experience with Hallelujah Challenge was one of God’s instruction to join this year. I've never really been a part of it intentionally till I clearly heard God saying that I should be a part of it. Even more I should make sure I share the link to all as part of my personal evangelism.
"I am grateful that despite the challenge of having to stay up late, use up more data and create inconveniences for some groups I belonged to, I was able to covert a lot of people who later saw reasons to be a part of the divine movement.
"If I'm to advise any, I would say it's always best to be a part of something like this with clear understanding and intentionality so as not to miss the whole idea behind it. Even if one eventually moves with the crowd, it's best to just let your faith rise so that it would count for something. Hallelujah challenge isn't just a trend, it's always a date with destiny and an assurance of hope for anyone who believes."

@Mary james said:

"Religious people can sometimes be judgmental just let others live how they want. If someone wants to join, let them join; if they want to follow a trend, let them trend. Imagine this statement ‘only us’."
