The Reverend Professor Immanuel A. Agbozo, Leader of the Ghana
Evangelical Society, said the country's economic hardship is the
manifestation of spiritual disorder on the part of political and
religious leaders. "There is no direction in the governance of the
country's policy, and the nation rely on international assistance to
balance its payment of deficit and these donors in turn dictates to us
on what they see as best policies for our development. "The country
lack moral courage to bring change and we need God's wisdom and
direction to lead the country to righteousness," Prof Agbozo said this
at the beginning of a three day festival of celebration of divine love
in Accra, under the theme "Behold I Make All Things New". Prof. Agbozo
said it behooves on the leadership of the country to submit totally to
the will of God to open doors of success in all their endeavors
because the word of God says "Jesus has come to open doors for us and
set captives free". He stressed that, in these seemingly difficult
times of the country's economy; "God has assured us of His presence
and that all must stand by the truth and embrace God to take control
of situations". He said the country was in a state of anguish because
there is political, social, psychological, and economic crisis;
stressing "that no nation can develop without the power of God because
God controls the affairs of all". Prof Agbozo said "most political and
religious leaders acknowledge Jesus Christ as the King of Peace,
pretending to be attending churches and mosque and in turn worship
other spiritual gods to the detriment of God's commandments". He urged
all to continue to thank God for the mercies bestowed on the nation
and the gift of life and pray for direction for the country to come
out of the economic crisis it is facing. The festival is devoted to
the celebration of God, His love, Mercies and goodness for man and
creation, nations and peoples of Ghana. The festival organized by the
Ghana Evangelical Society also serve as a time of national
acknowledgement, thanksgiving, honour and glory in worship, praise and
prayer unto God for the salvation and redemption of souls in the
country.
