An international evangelist, Dr Lawrence Tetteh, on Wednesday called for an end to intolerance of one another, personality attacks, insults, ethnic
and divisive politics that are conspiring to tear the nation apart.
In a message ahead of a five-day crusade dubbed “Ghana for Christ Crusade” that begins at the Trade Fair in Accra on Wednesday, he said the country needed a united front with concerted efforts as a people to surmount challenges the
country faced “otherwise posterity will not forgive us”.
He said leaders and their followers should know that something had changed in the country spiritually, that is, God will never hand over the leadership and governance to any group of people who do not demonstrate total submission to God and His son, Jesus Christ.
“All those jockeying for power and public office should know that governance is a delegated authority from God for a defined period,” said Dr Tetteh, who is the President of the Worldwide Miracle Outreach.
The healing and miracle crusade is to address the moral decadence that has engulfed the society and also attract people to God as a way of beating back the hate speeches that are gradually creeping into society.
Dr Tetteh said God would choose whoever pleased Him irrespective of what man thought and political propaganda.
“My prayer and advice to all leaders is that rather than concentrating on politics of deception, impunity, lies, character assassination, insults, personality cult etc, they
should first and foremost learn to submit to God’s authority, repent, confess their sins, and pray for forgiveness so that the favour of God would rest upon them and the nation.”
Dr Tetteh said after all, the natural resource endowment of the country and their locations at various regions and communities had been determined by God even before the emergence of the nation state called Ghana, for a purpose.
“Nobody or persons, parties, association, ethnic groups etc. have a clue how these natural resources found their way into our Land and spread across different parts of this country,” he said.
He repeated his caution to the country’s leaders that homosexuality should not under any circumstance be tolerated in Ghana, saying it had brought doom to many nations which accepted the practice.
“Most of the people and organisations championing this cause under the guise of human rights should remember their humble Christian beginnings and pay attention to conscience and morality,” Dr Tetteh said.
Dr Peter Gammons, President of Peter Gammons
Ministries, who is conducting the crusade with Dr Tetteh said he believed that with Godly leadership Ghana would prosper during the global transfer of wealth, power and influence that
is taking place.
“God showed me years ago that there would be a great discovery of natural resources that would bring great prosperity to the nation. Thank God it is happening,” he said.
Dr Gammons said for the past 35 years he had conducted crusades across the nations of the world speaking face to face with over one hundred million people in more than 100 nations of the world.
“Every night God has confirmed His word with signs and wonders as the blind see, the deaf hear and the lame walk. Now it is Ghana’s time!
