Ghanaians shld come to their senses & stop following these religious charlatans who have done nothing but parrasite off of ppl
The prayer of the Archbishop meant the breakfast was meant to pray for government officials only. How could a whole Archbishop pray this way. Of course, it is correct to pray for government officials, but why specifically saying no government official will die, because that create the impression that the ordinary Ghanaian is nothing so, he or she could die if infected with the virus. I suspect the Holy SPIRIT was bias this time. Very disappointing prayer.
In the first place I believe this disease came about as a result of reckless scientific adventurism that exploded right in the face of the adventurers. That being said, indeed there is a God who can heal the whole world of this disease and He is the God of Abraham, the Almighty God who is above all powers and principalities. He commanded that we should eat the leaves of trees and use their other parts to heal our diseases. SO ,yes your proposition is totally in line with His commandments already because through His creation he has imbued those herbs(nim ,oak,etc) with healing properties. They are all His creation including we the stubborn and hard-hearted, ungrateful creatures! So in His name I declare that whether government official or ordinary Ghanaian no individual is dying from covid-19 virus on this land called Ghana! I have called on the Name of Jesus on Earth and decreed forthwith and it shall be established as so in heaven!
So the so called man of God was invited to jubile house to pray for government officials. politics and sycophancy sometimes will blind us and making us forget our chosen profession.Among his position is cathedral when ordinary Ghanaians are suffering because he has enriched himself through tithes and offering.guess he is selling anointed oil and use of big words from the bible.A nation does not develop with these so called men of god
Very very disappointed in you man of God, what about the ordinary Ghanaian? Weather they catch the virus and die you don't care. Habaaa!!!!!!!!
am a traditionalist and i don't believe the prayers will end corona virus. lets find a traditional way of resolving the pandemic. simple adivice like boiling hot water with nim tree leaves and enforcing using information service vehicles. the white man has not come out with his vacinne and we sit down and pray in english thinking manner will fall from havens
Is this a prayer, a wish or a prophecy?
So what about the ordinary Ghanaian which includes his church members? Will they die??? He Duncan should be ready for Coronavirus. We all know coronavirus likes playing with people of their age 60-80tyrs. This greedy false prophets will forever be exposed by their deeds. When are they sharing the 100m USD deal.
***barred word*** prayer. How about the rest of the population? Sometimes these pastors behave as if God thinks and acts like a human being. Who is a government official? And what happens if they cease to be government officials? Will they now die?
Say it again ooo @Don. The poor and less privileged are marginalized materially and now it is being extended to spiritual things! God, who is the Creator of the poor and marginalized will be their Protector and I declare in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ that no Ghanaian within the shores of this country will die from Covid-19 virus. Amen!
