The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, has averred that wisdom is man’s greatest need on earth.
He made this revelation on Sunday, June 16, 2024, during the climax of the 2024 Pentecost Men’s Ministry Week celebration at the Kaneshie Central assembly auditorium.
Speaking on the topic, ‘Man, Be Strong and Courageous,’ Apostle Nyamekye indicated that God created man to manage the earth. However, for man to effectively manage the earth, God blessed them with wisdom. To exemplify this wisdom needed to manage the world, God created everything man needs on earth before creating them.
The Chairman explained that to be blessed does not mean a person does not need to do any work. Rather, a person who has been blessed by God needs to work hard to activate this blessing.
According to Apostle Nyamekye, life is full of challenges and as a result, humans are always confronted with decision making, saying, ‘There are decisions we need to take in life to move on to another step. Some of them are complex while others are simple. But in all, we need wisdom from above to make good decisions.’
He indicated that people were created by God to solve difficult problems, answer tough questions and meet expectations. In all these, he stated, wisdom is required.
Referencing 1 Samuel 8:19-20, Apostle Nyamekye called on men to note that they have a duty to fight the battles of their children and families, not just producing children.
Highlighting some of the fields where wisdom is required to manage, the Chairman mentioned marriage as one of them since it comes with a lot of challenges which when not properly managed with wisdom will lead to a lot of distractions.
One other field he mentioned is business, explaining that with wisdom, one can move from a tabletop business to a group of businesses.
According to Apostle Nyamekye, a man is a leader, and that leadership involves work, and response ability which translate into responsibility. He, however, said that leadership is not about showmanship, power, wealth, fame, making one’s enemies fear him or his friends admire him.
He added that a man is created to be a husband and just like Christ, the husband must love his wife, put in efforts to polish his wife to make her look very good and glorify his wife for his own good.
Apostle Eric Nyamekye called on Christian men to ask for wisdom from above because when King Solomon asked for wisdom to rule, God was very pleased with him.
