Allow The Holy Spirit To Saturate Your Lives – Apostle Addo-Pappoe To Believers

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

The Tepa Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle David Nii Addo-Pappoe, has called on believers to allow the Holy Spirit to saturate their lives to bring the desired transformation in them.

Speaking at the last “Koyhia Nyame” prayer programme for the year on December 1, 2023, at the Tepa Central assembly auditorium, Apostle Addo-Pappoe revealed that the Holy Spirit fire in Christians always acts as a catalyst and a divine booster that will lead them to make maximum impact in their societies.

“When the fire of the Holy Ghost is at work in a believer, he needs not to pay attention to the devil. Satan will disappear from their lives when the fire is at work,” he said. 

He continued that the devil’s venom will not be able to operate when the Holy Spirit fire is burning in their lives, just as the viper was shaken off into the fire by Apostle Paul (Acts 28:6).

He charged members to be filled with the fire of the Holy Spirit to take dominion of their territories. In this way, he said, they can transform their world.

Apostle David Nii Addo-Pappoe reiterated that when members are fully immersed in the Holy Spirit’s power, they will profoundly transform their marriages, workplaces, families, communities, and the entire world.

Pastor Eric Mensah of Hwidiem District, who happened to be the speaker, also admonished members to put on the identity of the fire of the Holy Spirit since they have the fire of the Holy Spirit in their DNA. 

He spoke on the theme, “Reposition yourself for a different identity for maximum impact” – John 5:35 and Psalm 104:4.

The Nkawkaw Area of The Church of Pentecost has donated some items and an undisclosed cash amount, valued at over GHS 50,000.00, to victims of recent flooding in the Adawso, Kotoso, and Hweehwee (Simpoa) communities.

The donation was made on Wednesday, November 22, 2023, at Mpraeso, led by Prophet Foster Kwasi Aniakwaa (Nkawkaw Area Head).

Prophet Foster K. Aniakwaa, presenting the items to the pastors and delegates of the affected communities, emphasised the church’s commitment to assisting those in need.

He underscored the church’s mission to spread the love of Christ and transform society using the principles and values of the kingdom of God.

“We cannot transform people when we turn a blind eye to the plight of those affected by natural disasters,” he said.

Receiving the items on behalf of the three districts, Pastor Samuel Aboagye Osei, the Kwahu Adawso District Minister, expressed gratitude to the Area for the donation and prompt response in aiding both members and non-members of the Church.

The items included bags of rice, gari, plantain bunches, both unused and used clothing, new clothes, soap, detergent, footwear, mats, treated drinking water, bread, biscuits, soft drinks, beverages, and other assorted items.

It is also worth mentioning that this is the second presentation made to the victims by the Nkawkaw Area.

The Area Head, accompanied by some pastors, visited the affected victims on October 25, 2023, to assess the extent of the damage and offer emergency food relief items.

Before the opening of the Akosombo Dam, communities along the Afram River (Afram Plains) faced massive flooding due to being part of the Upper Volta basin. Approximately 515 residents were affected in the three districts, impacting their homes, businesses, and farms.

Those present at the ceremony included Area Executive Committee members, delegates from the three affected Districts, Mrs. Grace Aniakwaa (wife of the Area Head), and the leadership of the Area Women’s Ministry

Dansoman Area Women’s Ministry Donates To Motherly Love Orphanage

by with No Comment Church NewsTop StoriesWomen's Ministry

The Dansoman Area Women’s Ministry of The Church of Pentecost made a significant donation to the Motherly Love Orphanage Home located at Kwabenya in Accra.

The donation included a chest-deep freezer (600Ltrs) to aid food storage in the home, two 43-inch flat-screen television sets, clothing, foodstuff, bags of rice, and sanitary items.

The items were presented during a visit to the Orphanage on Friday, December 1, 2023, observed as National Farmers’ Day.

The Church delegation, comprising Mrs. Rebecca Sey (Wife of the Dansoman Area Head), Deaconess Priscilla Ekpale (Area Women’s Ministry Leader), and the Executive Committee members of the ministry, was led by Apostle Daniel K. Sey (Area Head).

The team also included Elder Samuel Ansong (Area Deacon), and his wife, Deaconess Dr. Georgina Ansong, a cross-section of ministers’ wives in the Area, and some District Women’s Ministry leaders.

They were warmly received by the proprietor of the home, Rev. Azumah, and some of the inmates (children) of the Orphanage.

During an interaction with the delegation, Rev. Azumah gave a brief overview of the history and operations of the Orphanage, mainly consisting of the working staff and the children.

The children, visibly excited by the visit, took turns introducing themselves to the team, after which they thrilled their guests with some Children’s Ministry action songs.

In a brief word of encouragement, Apostle Daniel Sey advised the children to cherish the love in Jesus, saying, “If there’s no love for you anywhere, there’s one for you in Jesus.”

Apostle Sey, contrasting the love shown by the world and that of our Lord Jesus Christ, revealed that the love of Jesus is not selective but for all who may have been rejected elsewhere and look like castaways.

In his concluding remarks, the Dansoman Area Head charged them to stay connected to the vision and mission of the Orphanage, read their Bibles, pray daily, and show the love of Christ to their peers, all under the divine covering of the Lord.

Apostle Sey led the team in prayer for the staff and inmates of the home; then, he presented the items to the Orphanage on behalf of the delegation.

Receiving the items, the proprietor of the home thanked the Dansoman Area Women’s Ministry for benevolently considering them among the numerous orphanages in Accra.

Speaking to PENTECOST NEWS, Deaconess Priscilla Ekpale said, “The day, which was a celebration of Ghanaian Farmers, also doubled as World AIDS Day and seemed to be the best time to reach out, particularly to children in an orphanage home whose lives mainly depended on donations made by individuals, groups, and corporate organisations.”

She was, therefore, very hopeful that the donation would go a long way to aid the upkeep of the children at the Orphanage.

16 Receive Instant Healing On Day 1 Of The “Offinso for Christ” Crusade

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The much-anticipated crusade in the Offinso Area of The Church of Pentecost, Offinso for Christ Crusade, dubbed “Gospel and Healing Crusade,” has taken off smoothly, with 16 people receiving instant healing.

The four-day crusade began on Wednesday, November 29, 2023, with over 650 people attending both first and second services at the Offinso Newtown Assembly of The Church of Pentecost.

Speaking at the event, the Offinso Area Head, Apostle Samuel Edzii Davidson, advised the congregants to present their bodies as a living sacrifice unto the Lord.

Elaborating on the theme, “The God Of Fire,” Apostle Davidson revealed that since our God is a consuming fire, we must catch that fire as children of God to become Classical Pentecostal Firebrand Christians.

One way of doing that, he noted, is presenting ourselves as a living sacrifice unto the Lord (Romans 12:1&2).

Touching on the theme of the event, he disclosed that God, being a consuming fire, burns all negativities and bondages in our lives such as the bondage of iniquity, bondage of passivity, bondage of timidity, and bondage of infirmity.

Quoting Malachi 4:2, Apostle Davidson hinted that “Jesus is the fire of righteousness, so if the name of Jesus is believed and mentioned with faith, our infirmities will be consumed by fire.”

During the event, 16 people received instant healing from various ailments, as many others were touched by the Holy Spirit during the prayers led by the Area Head. To the glory of God, five souls were won and baptised in water.

The Offinso Crusade is jointly organised by the Offinso Area and Soul Partners International, United States of America.

In attendance today were: Mrs. Winnifred Edzii Davidson (Wife of the Area Head), Pastor George Kyeremanteng (Area Secretary), Apostle Joseph Gyemfi (Elohim Charismatic Ministry), and Offinso GPCC Organising Secretary, as well as the Area pastorate and their wives.

Develop An Attitude Of Thanksgiving – General Secretary Tells Christians

by with No Comment Church NewsMoving With GsTop Stories

The General Secretary of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Samuel Gyau Obuobi, has urged Christians to cultivate a continual attitude of thanksgiving and to always approach God with a heart of gratitude.

In his exhortation at the maiden Annual Thanksgiving Service of FeDems Group at the East Legon Worship Centre, Apostle Obuobi referenced Psalm 100:4-5, stressing that believers should approach God with a spirit of gratitude every time.

“The password to coming to the presence of God is ‘Thank You,'” he said, adding: “So always approach God with thanksgiving and praise and nothing else”

The General Secretary further stated that the Lord is pleased when His children come before Him with thanksgiving, drawing parallels to the biblical story of the lepers where only one returned with a heart of gratitude.

Alluding to the leper’s story, he explained that God expects them to offer gratitude to Him for His goodness and is pleased when they do that.

“Do not take God’s goodness for granted. We often complain and focus on challenges instead of being grateful,” Apostle Obuobi remarked.

He encouraged believers to reflect on the good things God has done, stressing that challenges are inevitable but thanksgiving transforms perspectives.

“Whether the challenge is big or small, take a minute to count your blessings, and you will realise that your blessings far outweigh your challenges,” he urged.

Apostle Obuobi said that God’s enduring goodness, love (mercies), and faithfulness throughout generations are reasons for them to be perpetually grateful to Him.

La Area Targets 1,500 Souls In 1M1D Soul Project

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The La Area of The Church of Pentecost seeks to win 1,500 souls for Christ in the One Member, One Discipled Soul (1M1D) project scheduled between November and December this year.

Apostle Dr Dieudonne Komla Nuekpe, La Area Head and Executive Council Member of The Church of Pentecost, revealed this during the launch of the church’s evangelistic drive at the Dr Thomas Wyatt Memorial Temple (Accra Newtown Zone) on Sunday, October 29.

The event, attended by the Chairman of the Church, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, was held simultaneously in other Zonal Centres in La Area.

Taking Scripture references from Jude 1:7, 23 as well as Revelation 20:14 and 15, Apostle Dr Nuekpe reiterated the urgency to reclaim certain people who are wavering in the faith, growing cold in their love for God and snatching others from hell through whatever way possible.

Apostle Dr Nuekpe emphasised the need to trumpet that Jesus Christ is the only accredited Saviour of the world. He alone is accredited to save humanity from eternal damnation.

He further charged believers to pray for the Holy Spirit to baptise the souls that would be won so that they would be firmly established in Christ.

The Area Head implored members to harness dawn broadcasting, rallies, campaigns, hospital visitations, visits to bus stations and beaches, and using traditional and other social media platforms to make the evangelistic drive a success.

Also in attendance were Apostle Prof Peter Ohene Kyei (Rtd), former Rector of the Pentecost University, Mrs Mary Nyamekye, wife of the Chairman, the pastorate in La Area and their wives.
