THEME: GHANA’S DESTINY REQUIRES REPENTANCE FROM IDOLATRY 

O Ghana, Behold Thy God, The Creator of heaven and earth 

He is one God, One God alone 

There is no other GOD beside Him 

Worship, Fear and Serve Him only 

Give Him alone all the glory 

Ascribe strength, might and glory to Him only 

There is none other beside Him, the Creator. 

In diverse ways has He revealed Himself to nations and peoples 

In diverse tongues and in diverse ways over time the nations have sought to know   and worship Him. 

By many words and names, the nations and peoples sought to describe 

His Nature, Power, Might, Wisdom, Works and Virtues 

In that vein, our fathers have called Him 

Mau, Nyame, Nyommo, Onyakopong, Naunu   

But there is one name that He Himself has given by which He should be known and called, that is Jehovah, I AM THAT I AM. Jehovah is Spirit and Light. The sun, the moon and stars, water, sea and rivers, land, trees, stone, mountains and hills, animals, birds, fishes and reptiles all are His creation. So also, is man. Therefore, He has revealed His Will and commanded. That there is and there should be no other God beside Him, that the nations should not make idols, worship and serve any creature neither in the heaven nor on the earth, neither in the sea nor under the earth.  

That His Wrath and judgement abide and will abide on nations and peoples who practice idolatry, worship creatures and graven images, the arts and creation and devices of man and shed blood to their gods. God abhors the worship, reverence, honor and giving of His glory to spirits and powers, elemental and human, and the creation of men.  

Jehovah calls upon the nations to repent from idolatry and blood sacrifices, the disobedience and provocation of His anger, wrath and judgement. The time of ignorance of the name, will, commandments, law and pleasure of God the Creator is long, long past.  

O GHANA, the time of repentance is now. The time has also come for Ghana to accept God’s offer of Reconciliation, Righteousness, Sanctification and Redemption. Ghana should take advantage of God’s Love, Wisdom and Power to affect and effect the conditions, needs and aspirations of nation and people. This leads to the Pleasure, Gladness, Joy, and Glory of The Creator and His Blessings on the nation.  

This is the Way of Peace and Goodwill, Wisdom and Power, Life and Liberty, Joy and Hope hidden in Christ Jesus.  And this is now revealed, made known and available to all peoples and nations.  Positive Change which can stand the test of time is only possible in the Divine context. 

Jesus Christ is the Open Door to the Divine Nature.  He is the Way, the Truth and the Life of the Creator made accessible to all men. He is presented in the Holy Bible as the Saviour, Reconciler, Redeemer and Hope of Glory to all men. To Him the Honor and Glory as the Mediator, Justifier, Judge, Messiah and Governor of all men and nations. He is the Builder, King and Governor of God’s Kingdom on Earth.  

In this regard, not only has God the Creator opened the door of Reconciliation and Peace, Salvation, Redemption and Restoration of Glory to us as nation and people through the Witness and Presence of the Church in the nation.  He has also openly declared, and this has been confirmed by many people in and out of the country that He has chosen Ghana as nation and people for His inheritance and for His personal presence, dwelling, Throne and Kingdom Glory on Earth this End-Time.  

This is but election, not of works of righteousness on our part as nation and people. The old covenant God made with Israel as nation and people now renewed, revitalized and sealed by the blood of the Lamb of God is open to the Gentile world. 

Ghana, a Chosen Nation, Sought Out, Redeemed and Made Holy unto God is the result. 

Ghana, a Beulah Land, God’s Kingdom Glory State, Star of Africa is the new status of our country.  Glory be to God in the Highest.  Glory be to His Name for ever and ever. Amen. 

Ghana, a chosen people, sought out, redeemed, made Holy unto God. 

Upon you the mantle of God’s Kingdom Glory on Earth. 

To you the Revelation, Blessed Hope, Joy and Glory of the Messianic Kingdom. 

Christ Jesus The Son Given, the King of Glory has established His throne in the midst of thee. 

GOD the Creator has become The Salvation and God of Ghana 

Christ Jesus, the Mediator, King of Glory is now Governor of the land  

Now must we repent and in accepting the election and Throne of Glory in the land throw out all the idols, gods and goddesses, deities and spirits of men (ancestors) we worship and revere with drink, blood, food, every and all sacrifices.  Let us place our Faith, Trust, Joy and Hope in JEHOVAH, The I AM THAT I AM.  And in obedience and honor of His Name, Law and Commandments establish ourselves in Christ Jesus as individuals, families, tribes, nation and people. The Peace, Righteousness, Justice and Joy of His Kingdom on Earth rest upon our land.  

Let us make Year 2003  

The Year of Golden Peace and Glory 

The Beginning of Great Things 

Peace, Goodwill, Victory, Prosperity and Joy to all. Amen.
