The General Overseer of Jesus Prayer Ministry (Superintendent Minister) at Ejisu Asuasi, Kumasi, in the Ashanti Region and Accra Pig farm, Rt Rev. Dr (Mrs) Grace Frimpong-Boateng, has asked Christians to pray for the country and its leadership during this period of Easter.

According to her, the current happenings in Ghana were abnormal and was important for Christians to make supplications to their maker for an intervention.

“As Christians, we must stand in the gap. I implore all Christians including ministers of God to unite in prayer for Ghana to be saved from any calamity, including plane crashes and motor accidents that claim the lives of well-known ministers of God and others,” he stated.

Delivering her Easter message, Rt Rev. Dr (Mrs) Grace Frimpong-Boateng mentioned that Easter was a time to remember Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection.

“Jesus gave his life to save everyone and deliver humanity from the forces of evil,” she stated.

And the benefit of Christ’s death and resurrection, she said was to rescue humanity from the clutches of the devil.

“I want you to have faith that God will bless you and accomplish His purposes for your life as we celebrate Easter. Believe that this year will be good and you will receive whatever you require in accordance with God’s plan for your life,” she indicated.

This, she emphasised, was the reason why Christians must not sit idle, but rather, channel their energies into intense prayers to reverse the negative trends that have overwhelmed the country in recent times, citing examples such as illegal mining (galamsey) pit collapses, road crashes and air crashes.

“Throughout this period of Easter and beyond, let’s stand together and be kind to one another and pray that God would bless and heal our land,” she underlined.

Rt Rev. Dr (Mrs) Frimpong-Boateng also urged the President, John Dramani Mahama, members of the Council of State, the Ministers of State, the Kings and Queens, and other traditional leaders to get up and offer prayers for God to intervene in the untimely deaths.

“I once dreamed that Ghana had turned into a stone and that everything was completely dark. I told several pastors but no one heeded to it. This has shown up as illicit mining, which is commonly known as ‘galamsey.’ Whenever I mention something that God has revealed to me, let’s pray sincerely for God’s intervention,” she disclosed.

She also indicated that these problems were not beyond the power of God who is able to transform lives and halt all the negative trends.

“With prayers, God can heal all the diseases we are talking about in our country. I have prayed for people and they have been cured of conditions including glaucoma, cancer, and brain tumours, among others. The same God is capable to answering all the supplications we make to him.”

“Let’s have faith in the power of God and trust Him in all we do. You won’t regret it if we turn from our sins and wicked ways now and allow Jesus to take control of our lives,” she noted.

She added that, “Ghana belongs to us so let’s commit to serving our nation. You will definitely return to Ghana, no matter where you go. We think things are quite difficult but with God on our side, we can overcome every challenge we face as a country.”

President John Dramani Mahama has called for stronger domestic capacity, effective institutions and sustainable financing as countries in the Global South continue to face growing debt pressures and disruptions in the international development landscape.

Speaking at a Presidential Roundtable organized by the Open Society Foundation in New York on Monday, on the sidelines of the 81st UN General Assembly, President Mahama said the priority for developing nations must be to create jobs, improve public services, build infrastructure and expand opportunities, particularly for young people.

“When I speak about sovereignty in this context, I am speaking about the capacity to act,” President Mahama stated.

He further stressed the need for stronger coordination across government, greater domestic resource mobilisation, sound financial management and institutions capable of delivering measurable results.

“Where an approach proves successful, the next step should be its adoption into public systems, local delivery institutions, and long-term financing models,” he added.
