Don't judge people before you truly know them

A 24 year old boy seeing out from the train's window shouted..."Dad, look the trees are going behind!" Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 year old's childish behavior with pity, suddenly he again exclaimed..."Dad, look the clouds are running with us!" The couple couldn't resist and said to the old man..."Why don't you take your son to a good doctor?" The old man smiled and said..."I did and we are just coming from the hospital, my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today.

Every single person on the planet has a unique story. 
Don't judge people before you truly know them. The truth might surprise you.
If this week is going to be marked, what would be your score? Live right and Lead well!

Ghanaian Preachers who have made impact in Ghana.


To my opinion these Ghanaian preachers have made impact in Ghana. On the basics of preaching the gospel and helping the needy.

Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams.

Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, known in many parts of the world as the Apostle of Strategic Prayer, is the Presiding Archbishop and General Overseer of Christian Action Faith Ministries (CAFM), head-quartered in Accra, Ghana. He is the founder and father of the Charismatic Movement in Ghana and other parts of West Africa. CAFM, one church in many locations, has over 300 affiliate and branch churches located in North America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Archbishop Duncan-Williams is also the Founder and President of Global Prayer Summit. The Prayer Summits bring the message and power of prayer to many U.S. and international cities focusing on corporate prayer and breaking down spiritual barriers that hinder revival.The story of Duncan-Williams’ birth, conversion and rise to General in the body of Christ has been an inspiration to many. In 1957, he was born to Florence Bruce despite the fact that doctors had earlier told her that her pregnancy was a risk to her health and she, therefore, decided to terminate it. Months later, Mother Florence discovered that Baby Nicolas survived the medical procedure. It was clear to some early on that this baby was destined for greatness. His father, E.K. Duncan-Williams, an Ambassador, politician and chief, became actively involved in Nicolas’s life at the age of 15.

With 43 sisters and brothers, Nicolas primarily raised himself learning the art of survival through difficult circumstances at a very young age. While growing up, on multiple occasions, he nearly lost his life. 1976, on the bed of affliction—after tragically losing three of his fingers, Nicolas Duncan-Williams, gave his life to Christ and made a vow that he would spread the gospel throughout the nations and serve God for the rest of his life. He is known as a coach, mentor and a father of many -- training thousands and building nations and communities for the end time harvest.

Anointed in the ministry of prayer, healing, deliverance and the prophetic, he also serves as an Intercessor and Minister for numerous African government, civic and business leaders. His intense passion for intercession and strategic prayer is born out of his personal experience. Archbishop Duncan-Williams also offers counsel, direction and mentorship to emerging and seasoned Bishops and ministry leaders. God has used him to birth ministries across the world and he is a spiritual father to many ministry leaders. He has been instrumental in Christian revival in many parts of the world. The Archbishop believes that the different revivals that have come across the nations over the years were as a result of prayer. “There is no substitute for prayer; prayer is the lifeline of the believer and the church of Jesus Christ...and there is no distance in prayer.” He also believes that intercession will be the last move that will precede the coming of our Lord.

The Archbishop has a distinct Apostolic calling to Africa. In addition to ministering to Presidents, he has missions that support poorest of the poor. His missions are supporting orphanages and provisions of food, shelter, water, electricity and ministry training in Africa. His Ministry runs Dominion University College in Accra, a Word-based theological and leadership institute of higher learning. He also founded the Dominion Multi-media College in Accra established to bring Christian ethics and training to the media. This Apostolic calling has led the Archbishop to take his strong dynamic ministry of over 20,000 members in Ghana to other nations of the world. His association with established leaders such as Oral and Richard Roberts, Dr. Morris Cerullo, Bishop T.D. Jakes and C. Peter Wagner has helped him to gain respect and accreditation from various church leaders worldwide. He has been featured on global Christian television and radio networks, such as TBN, the Word Channel and Inspiration Network. Archbishop Duncan-Williams, the recipient of many global honors and author of several books, can be seen weekly on his television program "The Voice of Inspiration" which is viewed by millions in Europe and Africa. He was trained by the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa and completed biblical studies at the All Nations for Christ Bible Institute in Benin City, Nigeria. The Archbishop, married to Rosa Whitaker Duncan-Williams, has four children, all in the Ministry, and one grand-child.

Rev. Sam Nii Korankye Ankrah.

The Most Rev. Sam Korankye Ankrah - Apostle, Prophet, Pacifist, Philanthropist, Entrepreneur, Educationist, Author and Motivational Speaker was born on Tuesday, February 23, 1960 to the late Mr. J. O. Ankrah and Madam Victoria Ziddah. Out of his polygamous father’s 24 children, he is the 22nd but the fifth of his mother’s seven children. The first key person who had a profound impact on his spiritual life was his God-fearing mother whom he affectionately calls Mmaah (a Ga word which means ‘my mother’).

As a devoted Christian who dearly loved the Lord, Madam Victoria encouraged Sam to accompany her to church every Sunday. His active participation and intelligent contributions during Bible discussions at church earned him the admiration of some of the elders, who encouraged Victoria to take a keen interest in his education. Victoria did so believing that her son would grow up to become a great prophet of God like the biblical Samuel. Thus when she baptized him at the age of eleven, she christened him “Samuel”.

In 1974, young Sam gained admission to Saint John’s Grammar Secondary School (St. Johns) in Accra. There, he became an active member of the Scripture Union (SU) even though he was not ‘Born Again’. This, he explains, was due to the fact that he had never quite clearly understood the salvation message. In his first year at St. Johns, however, he encountered the Lord in a special way and accepted Jesus Christ as his Personal Saviour.

By the time he entered University of Ghana, Legon, in 1984, Rev. Sam had started Showers of Blessing Incorporated - an evangelistic ministry made up of students from some second cycle institutions in Accra. This was the group which metamorphosed into Royalhouse Chapel eight (8) years later.

CRITICIZING GOD'S ANOINTED; GHANA BE CAREFUL!!!

Everybody is entitled to his or her opinion but please lets watch what we say about men of God because God's opinion about them is what counts.

Miriam only rebuked Moses of adultery which was true according to the law but in God's opinion Miriam rather became leprous for the so-called correction.

None of us employed any man of God so let the One who did so measure their productivity. You have the choice not to listen to any God's anointed but be careful how you treat what you've chosen to hear. Kingdom business isn't like the corporate world. "He who has never sinned should cast the first stone." If you think any of God's anointed has swayed off, you are commanded to restore such with all meekness and supplication to the One who is able to save, considering your own self lest be tempted in the same way.

Prayer is the solution; not criticism. Can you repeat those same words you just did when brought before such a man? Do you have the power to change him? Lets fear God!!

INTERNATIONAL GATHERING OF THE CLOUDS


This is a yearly Prophetic program Organized by the Empowerment Worship Center (EWC). It is taking place at the Salem Temple near Achimota new bus terminal, behind the Shell filling Station.

See you there!!!

The power of sin's promises is broken by the power of God's promise.


Sin's power is rooted in its promise of satisfaction. You're compelled to a one night stand because it promises quick joy without the hard work of a committed relationship. You're drawn to gossip about your ex-spouse because it promises the instant gratification of revenge. You're tempted to be greedy and not give to the poor because it affords you the comfort of buying more for yourself. We sin not out of duty but out of hope for happiness. (We wouldn't sin if we didn't think we stood to gain something by sinning.)

In other words, sin's power is in its promise of happiness. Sin, which leads to death (Romans 6:16 ), will continue to enslave us as long as we believe that sin provides greater joy than righteousness, which leads to life. The breakthrough over sin comes when we realize who God promises to make us if we trust in him.

In contrast to sin, God promises us much greater joy and satisfaction in him than in sin. When we receive Christ and are born again, our eyes are opened and our desires transformed. God makes immense promises to those who are born again.

Specifically, in Christ we are made righteous (Romans 5:19 ), dead to sin (Romans
6:11 ), given eternal life (Romans 6:23 and John 3:15 ), not condemned (Romans 8:1 ), sanctified (1 Corinthians 1:2 ), made alive (1 Corinthians 15:22 ), made a new creation ( 2 Corinthians 5:17 ), reconciled to God ( 2 Corinthians 5:19 ), clothed with Christ ( Galatians 3:27 ), immeasurably blessed (Ephesians 1:3 ), forgiven (Ephesians 1:7 ), and made the very righteousness of God (2 Corinthians
5:21 ). What an awesome set of promises given by God! All that God promises to be for us in Jesus stands against what sin promises to be for us without him.
