THEME: THE FEAR OF JEHOVAH: THE ONLY SOURCE OF NATIONAL WISDOM 

Blessed be Ghana, the land of our birth and hope for the worship of God, freedom, and liberty—the joys of the goodness, mercy, and blessedness of God in Africa and the world. Ghana, a chosen nation and people, is shining and shall shine in the working Hand, Beauty, and Glory of the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth, Father of Jesus Christ, Saviour of the world. Ghana: Star of Africa is the Divine Heritage for the country. 

This glorious position of Ghana is not the gift of man, nor has it proceeded from the works of any man or group of people. Ghana, a chosen and blessed nation, is of God.  Her advancement, progress, and glory are in the bosom of God. No one can catch the vision, let alone work to usurp and turn the Divine Heritage and Glory of Ghana. 

Because of this, the Most High God has asked His servant and spokesman on affairs of nations, peoples, and creation to inform the church and government of Ghana that the “Fear of the Lord is the Beginning of Wisdom.” To the Church in Ghana, the Lord’s message is that the works and wisdom of the flesh have come to an end. To the Government of the day, thus says the Lord: ‘Wisdom cannot be bought.’  Books, ideas, technology, and appliances of the world have failed. Thus, the sending of people abroad—across the borders of Ghana, overseas, and beyond—cannot bring wisdom and hope to the country. Indeed, wisdom cannot be bought, says the Lord.  

The wisdom of this world is death and destruction, but the fear of the Living God alone is the source of all wisdom. “My wisdom abideth forever,” declares the Lord. Wisdom is God. Ghana is facing many challenges—yes, as is the rest of Africa. If the wisdom of the world can save the nation, Ghana will not be drawing back as it is the case now. On the other hand, “if the wisdom of man can pull down the country, it would have happened long ago”, says the Lord. Had it not been for the Lord, His mercy, covenant, and promises, Ghana would have slipped away and down. 

This also proves the wisdom and power of God to establish the country on her feet, in spite of the works of spirits and men. God’s truth, power, and throne stand solid and sovereign forever.  Amen! 

It is time for the Church and Government of Ghana to seek wisdom from the Living God and Fear Him. Declares the Lord: “it takes My wisdom, it takes My faith, it takes My fear, to build and make Ghana the promise of praise. Lectures and seminars cannot bring wisdom. Money, silver, and gold cannot buy wisdom. The wisdom of the world is death.” 

Let the church, government, and people of Ghana know and understand that The Wisdom of God passes finding out. Thus, it is a mystery that out of the death of Jesus Christ on the cross and His resurrection, victory, life, and hope have come to man—yes, to nations and peoples who believe. 

The simplicity of the gospel has confounded many a wise man, yet that is the mystery of God. The source of spirit, life, and power—joy and glory in this life and the world to come—is in the gospel of Christ. Declares Christ Jesus, the King of Glory: “My Name, Jesus, is life. It is life. My name remains God, and I stand supreme. The name Jesus is a mystery; It depicts the wisdom of God. Jesus ever stands to give life, to give wisdom and to give understanding.” 

It is time to seek God, the Kingdom of Peace, Righteousness, and Eternal Life. In God alone lies wisdom, power, hope, and glory to all men and all nations. Amen! 

Ghana, remember to honor your God, the Creator.
