Do Not Waste The Wait And Fast

Do Not Waste The Wait And Fast

Features
Dear Youth, Having recently completed our 14-day global fast, we must remember that the true test of our spiritual resolve begins now. When we fast and seek God's face, we attract divine power and strength. As Isaiah 40:31 reminds us, "Those who wait upon the Lord, He will renew their strength." However, it is crucial that we maintain this newfound strength by continuing to pray, obey, and live a holy life. We must not let our guard down or allow sin to creep in and undermine our spiritual progress. Let's draw inspiration from Jesus' example. After fasting for 40 days and nights, He faced temptation from the enemy. But because He had gained spiritual strength through fasting, He was able to overcome the temptation (Matthew 4:1-11). Jesus could have lost it all if He had failed the...
The “Calling” And The “Full-Time Ministry:” Perspective From A Minister’s Wife

The “Calling” And The “Full-Time Ministry:” Perspective From A Minister’s Wife

Features
Background This article aims to shed light on the “Calling,” the “Full-time Ministry,” and the essential partnership between the minister and the minister’s wife, creating a synergy for a beautiful ministry. It also highlights the full-time ministry dimension of a minister’s wife engaged in activities within their ministry setting that are not strictly ministry-related, often referred to as “Secular Work.” Recently through the rollout of Vision 2028 of The Church of Pentecost, the Chairman, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, has underscored the need to avoid creating a dichotomy between the “sacred” and the “secular.” The secular should always be the setting for the sacred. In this way, the church – those in Christ – will truly serve as agents of transformation, influencing every sphere of socie...
The Missionary In A Foreign Land

The Missionary In A Foreign Land

Features
Missionaries are guests in a foreign country, which presents unique risks in missionary work. Why? Our citizenship is elsewhere, and we are there on a visa. When you are a guest in someone else's home, you treat them with respect and adapt yourself to be accepted by them. The same is true when you are a missionary in another country. Truth be told, you cannot save a culture by attacking the people, their way of life, and their beliefs. Why? “To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews… I have become all things to all people…” (1 Corinthians 9:20-22). This is the guiding principle for all missionaries. Missions are all about contextualization. Because of this, there is no greater calling than missions. I believe mission work is the highest calling. Missions are the ultimate...
A Call To Action: Valentine Message To Africans

A Call To Action: Valentine Message To Africans

Features
Africa Must Unite! A Call for Economic Self-Sufficiency Amid Aid Cuts The recent trend of U.S. aid cuts to Africa is a wake-up call, not a crisis. It is a reminder that Africa must take charge of its economic destiny by fostering self-sufficiency, industrialisation, and intra-African trade. The era of dependency on foreign aid must give way to strategic economic policies that prioritise African interests, particularly through import substitution, resource value addition, and local manufacturing. 1. Import Substitution: Building Local Capacity African nations must reduce their reliance on imported goods by adopting import substitution strategies at the national level. Governments should incentivize local production, protect infant industries, and invest in industrial infrastructure...

The Unleashed Christian Youth And Valentine

The Unleashed Christian Youth And Valentine

Features
Introduction In a world where love is often reduced to fleeting emotions, superficial gestures, and self-serving desires, Christian youth are called to unleash a different kind of love—a love that is bold, radical, and rooted in the truth of God’s Word. Valentine’s Day, a day often associated with romantic love, provides a unique opportunity for Christian youth to redefine what it means to love by living out the transformative and unconditional love of Christ. The term “unleashed” signifies freedom, power, and purpose. For Christian youth, being unleashed means breaking free from societal expectations, cultural norms, and personal insecurities to fully embrace and demonstrate the love of God. This article explores how Christian youth can unleash their faith, live out biblical love, and ...

Lectio Divina – Praying With Scriptures

Lectio Divina – Praying With Scriptures

Features
The term "Lectio Divina" is a Latin expression translated as "Divine Reading." It was popularly known to be a part of the daily prayer practices of the early sixth century monastic communities in Europe. It was a way of communicating with God through Scriptures. It comprised reading and rereading a short passage of Scripture under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit whilst in prayer. Some describe it as “dialoguing with God” through Bible reading. Lectio Divina is a contemplative way of reading Scripture that invites us to engage in a sacred dialogue with God. This practice is not merely about reading the Bible, but about listening to God's voice, and responding to His presence in our lives. As we read and reread a short passage of Scripture, we open ourselves to the inspiration of the H...
