Call him what you may; a soothsayer, a pastor, a politician on a pulpit, or a prophet of doom. Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of the Glorious Word Ministry International continues to dominate the headlines in Ghana, often for reasons other than right.
The pastor, who has courted controversy in Ghana for several years appears to have a trigger that sparks such discussions about him.
The 31st of December 2016 was one such day he decided to make use of that trigger.
As is now custom at his church, hundreds of Ghanaians showed up for a 'taste of what to expect' in 2017 and Rev Owusu Bempah was sure to stay the course of not disappointing.
However, some of his utterances on new year's eve seem to have gotten Ghanaians more worried than excited.
The controversial man of God is predicting the deaths of a former president, a former first lady as well as a 'great king' in Ghana.
He's also predicting a terrorist attack in the country, a coup d'etat as well as more clashes between Christians and Muslims in the country.
The prophecies, though intriguing to the several who hear them, have left many pondering what really a 2017 Ghana will look like. But Rev Owusu Bempah could not be bothered about how his prophecies are interpreted. His message is simple: Pray to avert them.
As you engage in the debate of how accurate Rev Owusu Bempah's predictions are, have been and will continue to be in the future, here are 17 prophecies to mull over for the next 12 months.
- Death of a former president
- Death of a former first lady

Some one should help me the Pastor says Nana Addo government will be the best since independence and saying that there will a coup deta.I don't get it.He could mention the name of the Former Presidentand first Lady but could mansion the Nigerian President and NDC to he in opposition for 16 year.
If he predict death of Nigerian president is that ambiguous?A plane crash in Ghana (how often do planes even crah in the big USA with many planes- is that ap general prediction?)
If someone tells me a prophecy that spells doom in the future, I have two options.I find the antidote in the bible, pray and make declarations to overturn them. That is what prophets, seers and watchmen in the bible did. Isreal had the Jeremiahs etc foretelling doom. That's what prophecy is about, to guide our prayers and secure a safe future. It is that simple and that is all there is to it. Men should always pray, that is all, no sweat.
My advise to Ghanaians....dont be quick to judge....just pray without ceasing...dont be frightened by negative utterances....dont succumb to the spirit of fear....just pray and believe.thank you
@Dj Khalid. People like you are the reason why these fraudsters parade as prophets.Apart from NDC supporters who else did not know NDC was going to lose the 2016 elections.Which country does not have a politician die in a year.Owusu Bempa takes advantage of the small minded people in Ghana.
This skin bleached pastor should not be taken seriously seriously.He is always evil.So in his lifetime he has never predicted anything good for Gh.
First of all the question is has any of his past predictions happened before? You can google for his predictions for the year 2012 and you will find hed described the death of Aliu Mahama, past vice presdo, and John Attah Mills. He predicted the winning of NPP like 2 years ahead.
@Kojo Ndur 9 10: I strongly believe you could have made your point without showing your intense hatred for the ASHANTIs. Let us name and shame individuals rather than demonizing a group of people for an individual "perceived" wrong doing. I don't subscribe to the approach of the "man of God" however true of false his prophecy may be. ONE thing and only one thing I know; the ONE true God - the maker of heaven and earth reigns forever. God bless our homeland Ghana!
AM REALLY SAD THAT THERE ARE SO MANY GULLIBLE PEOPLE IN GHANA WHO BELIEVE THIS FRAUDSTER,S NON-S-EN-SE.WHICH COUNTRY IN THE WORLD DOES NOT HAVE PEOPLE DIEING IN A WHOLE YEAR.ITS TIME GHANAIANS STOP CALLING ANY PERSON WHO TAKES THE BIBLE AS MAN OF GOD.OWUSU BEMPAH SHOULD BE SENT TO PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL
