BISHOP ISHMAEL SAM LAUNCHES HIS MAIDEN BOOK – “RETENTION AND CHURCH GROWTH”

by Admin

The Maintenance of the Aim Conference at The Truth Cathedral in Dawhenya, was climaxed with another special event: The launch of Bishop Ishmael Sam’s maiden book, “RETENTION AND CHURCH GROWTH”, dedicated to and fore-worded by the Prophet, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills.

In his Foreword to the book, which was read out loud during the ceremony, Bishop Dag emphasized the theme of the book which is the importance of retaining members in a church. He revealed that many churches have large front doors but have equally large back doors; it is his wish and hope that the book would end the dilemma of churches having many Visitors who do not stay on as Permanent Church Members. He emphasised that the book, authored by Bishop Ishmael Sam, was not borne out of empty theory but is the handiwork of an experienced Pastor who has spent many years in hands-on Follow-up and Discipleship Ministry. He highly recommended the book to all Pastors, assuring that through this volume, they would rise out of ministry struggles and enter into the glorious dimension of ministry.

Bishop Dag spent some time to talk about the Book and its importance to Ministry and then declared the book, “RETENTION AND CHURCH GROWTH” by Bishop Ishmael Sam, officially launched. The Prophet encouraged all gathered to get copies of the book.

Bishop Emmanuel Nterful, Convener of the Executive Council of the UD-OLGC, gave the closing remarks. He congratulated Bishop Sam and Loyalty House International for the great work done, after which he said the closing prayer to officially mark the end of the Conference.

THE TRUTH CATHEDRAL DEDICATED TO THE GLORY OF GOD

by Admin

The last day of the Maintenance of the Aim Conference hosted by the Loyalty House International was crowned with the dedication of The Truth Cathedral by the Prophet, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills. It was all excitement and fun as both young and old danced and sang praises to the Lord.

After an awesome ministration by the 250-member Mass Choir, the Resident Bishop and Convener of the Loyalty House International Denomination, Bishop Ishmael Sam gave a brief history of how far the Lord had brought the church.

He recounted how Bishop Dag sent him from the Light of the World Cathedral at Korle Gonno to Tema to start a branch. Though it was a tough decision to “leave his father” and move to a new place, he obeyed. He emphasized how soaking in messages of his father the Prophet and sharing them with his small congregation in Tema resulted in massive church growth, moving the church from a small bar to the Cornerstone Cathedral.

After building the beautiful Cornerstone Cathedral, which became a tourist attraction for visitors, to Bishop Sam, it was mission accomplished. However, at the dedication of the Cathedral Prophet preached a message titled “No Work Done, Get to the Job”; a message that ministered to him that more had to be done for the Lord. It therefore came as no surprise when Bishop Dag Heward-Mills encouraged him a few years later to start a new branch. It sounded like an impossible task but after the Prophet prayed for him, he knew within himself that God was going to make it possible and He surely did to His Glory.

A short documentary about how the beautiful and ultra modern edifice of The Truth Cathedral was built was shown to the entire congregation. Viewers were thrilled to see the various phases of the building process from bare land till it was finally completed.

The plaque for the dedication of the Cathedral was unveiled by the Prophet, Bishop Dag accompanied by Episcopal Sister Adelaide Heward-Mills and the Executive Council of the UD-OLGC. Prophet prayed powerfully and declared The Truth Cathedral officially “open for business”, which is the business of establishing souls for the Kingdom of God. Hallelujah!!!

The Prophet also prayed powerfully for Bishop Sam, anointing him to assume new levels in his ministry and to do more for the Lord. It was such a solemn moment to witness a Father pronounce such powerful prophetic blessings over his Son.

ES Adelaide Heward-Mills rejoiced with Bishop Sam and the Loyalty House International over what God had done. She recalled how sad she felt when Bishop Sam and other Pastors at the time were sent out to start branches because she loved the church family that they had become. She indicated that little did she know that through that God was giving her the opportunity to have several other families all over the world, as the UD-OLGC has become. She saluted Bishop Dag for his strength, fortitude, focus and for being our Commander-in-Chief with God Himself as our banner. She prayed that God would give us the Grace to obey.

The dancing stars then wowed the congregation with their spectacular ministration through beautiful dancing skills, to mark the end of the dedication of The Truth Cathedral.

MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM – 7 Components of the Great Commission

by Admin

Day 2 of the MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM CONFERENCE with the Prophet, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, was another blessed time in the Presence of God. Just like the woman at the well of Samaria who encountered Jesus at the well and joyfully went into the city to call others to come and listen to Jesus, participants from the first day sent word of the great move of God at the Conference to their friends and loved ones. As a result, the crowd on the second day was far larger than what we saw on the first day, resulting in several people taking up seats outside the ultra modern edifice of the Truth Cathedral of Loyalty House International.

The Day began with a powerful prayer session, followed by praise and worship which ushered in the great presence of the Lord. Participants were also treated to Documentaries of the Healing Jesus Campaign held in various cities within Africa. This was sobering for many as they appreciated the great work that God was doing with the Prophet, inspiring them to continue supporting the Healing Jesus Campaign.

The highlight of the service was when the Prophet mounted the stage amidst loud, jubilant shouts. He reminded Conference participants of the theme of the Conference: MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM. He pointed out that the name of the Conference in itself is an important message. He reiterated the points discussed on the first day which he maintained are necessary for the maintenance of the aim.
Quoting 1 Corinthians 15:58,

  • Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord- Prophet emphasised that this scripture tells us to maintain the aim steadily and never move away from it. He said that the scripture tells us what we should not move away from: The Work of the Lord. He indicated that our ability to do well beyond a certain level will come from our ability to maintain the aim. Maintaining the aim he explained makes you do well and successful in a sense. He explained that maintaining the aim requires us to continue with the same things we started with, continue with Church Planting, Missionary Sending, Winning Souls, Training People, Open Air Crusades, Breakfast meetings, Person to person, Visitation and Night Schools – The Work of the Lord.

Bishop Dag admonished that our duty is to maintain the aim of working for the Lord, because it is very easy to shift from maintaining the reason why one started doing whatever is being done, but it is only experience that teaches us that.

He revealed that when you start fighting a war like America started fighting in Afghanistan, you will not know that you have changed the aim. He mentioned that in a war this is called “Mission Drift” or “Mission Creep” which represents drifting from the mission. He stated that in Afghanistan they drifted from fighting a war to building a nation, which though a good thing but was not the main mission or the aim. He related this to how a church does many good things such as providing fellowship, entertainment, health care and education, which are all good but are not the aim of the church. He reiterated that the aim of the church is the great commission which is the aim of getting people saved.

In the second session, Bishop Dag outlined the seven components of the Great Commission found in Matthew 28:18-20, which include: the Commission of power; Going; Teaching; Baptism; Commission to all nations; Commission which goes with His Presence, and a Commission until end the world.
He tasked the participants to commit to the seven components of the commission.

The last session was fully charged with excitement as participants were eager to hear from Bishop Dag. It was like how the Bible describes in Mark 12:37
..” And the common people heard him gladly…”

He declared that the church has been called to the great work of soul winning. Gleaning from John 15:16, he emphasised that as a church we shouldn’t departmentalize evangelism because many have been called to fruitfulness. He outlined the various characteristics of the called.
Bishop Dag then encouraged many to respond to the Call of Ministry, pursue and enter the full-time ministry by giving them themselves wholly to the call.

LHI DENOMINATION – MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM CONFERENCE (MOTA) 2021

by Admin

The maiden edition of the MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM CONFERENCE (MOTA) 2021 kick-started with the Evangelist, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills. This Conference is being hosted by the Loyalty House International (LHI) Headquartered at Abbey-Dawhenya, with branches in Ghana, Togo, Benin, Niger and Nigeria.

It was a charged atmosphere with thousands of members from Loyalty House International, Makarios Church and other Denominations from the United Denominations (UD) as well as Non-UD members from within and outside Dawhenya/ Tema.

Although the starting time for the Conference was 9am, by 6am, long queues had already been formed by members who had travelled from far and near, expectant and desirous of an encounter with the Lord through the ministration of the Prophet, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills. By 8am, the 2,000-seater auditorium of the Truth Cathedral of the Loyalty House International, Abbey Dawhenya, was filled to capacity, necessitating the usage of other Halls of the ultra modern facility for seating.

The Prophet’s arrival was electrifying as everyone stood up, clapped and shouted to warmly welcome daddy home.

Being the first time the Prophet was visiting the Church Complex after its completion, Bishop Sam, the Host and Convener of the Loyalty House International Denomination, expressed his joy about having his Father, the Prophet visit the Church. He said that just as Jesus did not have to say anything for the demons to run to Him to question what they had to do with him (Luke 4:34), the Prophet’s visit was enough to deal with any demons of Ministry and their personal lives.

The Prophet also expressed his joy to be at the Truth Cathedral, recounting the first time he visited the site as bare land with red sand. Having seen some familiar faces at the Conference, he emphasized the need to maintain the unity since the Church is like a Family and just as one cannot leave a Family, in the same way one cannot just leave the Church Family.

Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, in introducing the theme for the Conference, MAINTENANCE OF THE AIM, indicated that maintenance of the aim is one of the most important secrets of war. Preaching from Chapter 8 of his book, the GOOD GENERAL, he emphasized that Selection and Maintenance of the Aim was the main and most important strategy of war, illustrating with United States of America’s withdrawal of its troops from Afghanistan and how America’s inability to maintain the aim came with huge financial costs.

He stated that successful maintenance of the aim results in a single unambiguous victory. Quoting 1 Corinthians 2:2 and 2 Corinthians 15:58, he emphasized that maintenance of the aim brings many benefits. He warned that often it is the refreshments and rewards (which are the benefits and gifts you receive while doing the work of God) which prevent or distract us from maintaining the aim. He stated that we must not forget that those rewards and refreshments came as a result of our first or initial obedience and so we must be steadfast in maintaining the aim and as we do that, more rewards and refreshments will come.

Using his own life as an example, he revealed that his quest to maintain the aim made him to go and start the First Love Church from nothing. He recounted how they had to meet in halls and classrooms but because he was determined to maintain the aim, he was not discouraged. Starting First Love, he said, has literally given him a new lease on life, he has gone back to his first love, he has gone back to doing his first works, and that has rejuvenated him in Ministry!

Using the NASB version of Acts 4:20, he admonished the church not to stop what God has called us to do. The entire congregation joined in a chorus of this phrase “WE CANNOT STOP!”, to remind ourselves that we cannot depart from the aim of winning souls, planting churches, sending missionaries, and all the things that by the Grace of God the Church is good at doing. Job 27:6 says “my righteousness I hold fast…. He encouraged Loyalty House not to shift from what is good about them.

Bishop Dag exhorted all to desire Full Time Ministry. He taught that Jesus believed in Full Time Ministry. He was in the Lay Ministry till He was 30, then the Holy Spirit led Him into the wilderness – nothingness – Full Time Ministry. In order to maintain the aim, Full Time Ministry is necessary. Full Time Ministry ensures that one take heed to himself, and one’s gift is not neglected.

THE SPIRIT SET ME UPON MY FEET!!!

by Admin

(4) Show me your ways, O God, teach me your paths. (5) Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are my salvation. For you, I wait all day long! (9) God guides the humble in justice and teaches the humble the Way. Psalm 25:4, 5, 9.

After 2 years of being robbed of that special kind of atmosphere, (by the unknown environs of that collective trauma of a Pandemic) of gathering together and sitting at the feet of one of the most anointed and gifted Teachers of our time, we finally got to experience it once again! There was no way we were going to miss this Conference for anything in the world! Having our Father, Apostle, Teacher, Prophet and Evangelist, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills minister to us for four days at the Give Thyself Wholly Conference 2021, dubbed ‘The Spirit Entered Into Me’, was just the energy booster and encouragement we needed to forge ahead! As early as 6am on Tuesday morning, people were already gathering from all walks of life to begin their registration process.

In the evening, as we were preparing our hearts to be guided by scripture, inspired by worship, and enjoying being together with the brethren, our Father, Bishop Dag walked in, oozing with aura and so much anointing to impart to his children. How is your Ministry?  What are you experiencing as Leaders? How can we become more resilient in our lives and Ministries?…. were a few of the many questions participants received answers and insight to during this Conference.

The first message titled ‘The Effects on Nature of Man After the Fall’, in which Bishop Dag carefully dissected man’s current state as a result of the Fall, using the key scripture for the Conference, Ezekiel 2:2 And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me. A few of the effects he mentioned, were: The end of our true fellowship or interaction with God, and how we are now cut off from the Power of God. The state of man experiencing a lowered mentality or a darkened mind, as a result of the Fall.

Bishop went on to enlighten us about what happens to us when the Spirit enters into our lives. “The effect of the Spirit coming or entering into your life is that you receive a Ministry. You receive power to prevail and be successful in Ministry”. God wants to use us by putting his Spirit into us. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. Luke 4:18.

His message on the first day left participants hungry and thirsty for more! As a result, more people trooped in on the 2nd day. Prophet Dag explained that God is sending us into a world filled with rebellious people and taught us how we can work with these people. In short, how God uses bad people (us), to save bad people. God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect Hebrews 11:40.

Bishop Dag continued to teach on how to create the Family (Church) of God. Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. He mentioned that one of the ways to create the family is to let people be filled with remembrance. He made reference to one of his books from the Loyalty Series “Those who Forget”. He explained what makes people forget, and why it is important to remember.

From Ezekiel 2:2-4 Bishop further expounded on how the Spirit guides us when He enters into us, how He helps us to achieve greater heights, and how and why we should deal with pride in order to give way to the Holy Spirit to work in us. He brought to our attention how Satan wants to separate us who belong to the family of God because he has been separated from the family. He ended the day’s teaching with a powerful prayer against anything that tempts and tests us as Christians. He prayed for God to renew a right Spirit in us.

    The Conference was wowed by powerful song ministrations by an array of soloists, which showcased yet another beautiful side of our multi-gifted Prophet as a songwriter and lyricist. The Conference was further enriched by Documentaries, which showed the many and varied ‘near impossible’ journeys the Healing Jesus Campaign Team has embarked on over the years. The end of each day left us full of expectation and hungering for more of what was to come the next day. Our souls were richly fed!

      by Admin

      ‘When Mama comes home we always get something nice to eat’! Reverend Kwasi Dei could not have said it better! Episcopal Sister Adelaide Heward-Mills visited the First Love Center and her mark was Indelible. The program was nothing short of Incredible.

      The impeccable singing of the love songs collection of First Love Music softened the atmosphere and gently prepared the hearts of the people in attendance. Everyone listened with rapt attention, captivated by the Wisdom that effortlessly oozed out of Episcopal Sister Adelaide.

      ‘A Perfect Vessel does not exist’, ‘Your Spouse is your Life’s Project till you die’, ‘Nobody does well in an atmosphere of Criticism’, ‘We are defined by our Relationship with Christ and not our Temperaments’ ‘Don’t try to be your Spouse’s personal Holy Ghost’, are just among numerous Wisdom Keys Auntie Maame shared that lovely evening.

      The night was laden with hushed whispers, hearty laughs and a lot of nods of understanding; all in agreement with the Sweet Words she spoke. There was truly honey on her lips!

      What was the wisdom key that you took away that night? Let us in on it in comments below!

      SHINING THE LIGHT ON LOYALTY; DISPELLING DISLOYALTY. DON’T LET IT BE YOU!

      by Admin

      Bishop Kweku Amponsah’s visit to the Morning Star Cathedral, Headquarters of the Catch the Anointing Centre (CTAC) Denomination, on Sunday 5th and Tuesday, 7th September 2021 was very timely and the message preached, spot on!.

      He preached on Loyalty and Disloyalty, shedding light on why the subject is timelessly relevant, why faithfulness is vital and the rewards derived from being faithful. It is important to be found faithful even when “the master drops in unannounced”.

      Bishop Kweku also touched on the Culture of Allegiance: What makes up a culture, Why it is important and How it defines and guides the people concerned. He said,

      If we are all loyal we stay together like a family. That is what makes people who do not understand this principle refer to the church as a cult. No matter what happens, nobody leaves the family they are born into.

      Bishop Kweku had a session with leaders and shepherds of CTAC HQ, La and Teshie Councils, where he delved deeper into the Culture of Allegiance in the church. “We must defend what we have, love it and support it”.

      During the Tuesday Service, Bishop Kweku further expounded on the all important subject of Faithfulness. Familiarity, he said, undermines loyalty and causes people who have been around for a long time to become betrayers. Using Matthew 25:21 he explained that it is the Faithful Servants who will enter into the joy of the Lord. “His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” One can be Good but not Faithful. Faithfulness is what makes one CONTINUE and REMAIN planted where God has placed him.

      Something that will forever stay with everyone who attended the service is that “there will always be disloyal people but DON’T LET IT BE YOU”. “In your day of temptation, remember what you have believed and said”.

      The 2-day Loyalty Conference was wonderful, impactful and well attended. All present were awakened to this all important subject of Loyalty and Disloyalty. The Convener, Bishop Kakra Baiden in his comments reiterated that “as a Church and Denomination, it is our prayer that we will REMAIN Loyal, Faithful, Constant, Reliable and Dependable to the end so we reap our full reward”.

      HOW TO LAND YOUR PERFECT JOB: How to Create a Stellar Resume/CV

      by Admin

      On August 21st, 2021, the Finance & HR Community of the UD Lay World Movement held its inaugural event entitled “How to Land Your Perfect Job”.

      Session one of this multi-part series focused on “How to Create a Stellar Resume/CV.” The session which had over 300 people in attendance kicked off with an amazing exhortation from the Convener of the Lay World Movement, Rev. Dr. Kodwo Orleans – Lindsay.

      Rev Lindsay ministered powerfully from Genesis 46:31-47:1-4 … And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What is your occupation? That ye shall say, Thy servants’ trade hath been about cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and also our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; … Joseph coached his brothers on how to “prepare a good resume” in their response to Pharaoh when he interviewed them, which propelled them into their dream job of shepherding and consequently their wealth in Goshen.

      He emphasized the importance of seminars like these through which careers of members of the UD can be developed, and opportunities for them to expand their support for our beloved ministry through tithes, offerings and building of churches.

      Participants had the privilege of hearing from HR professionals with over 100 years of combined experience. These professionals (Lp Harriet Darkwa, Karen Adjaye, Maureen Aryee, Lp Judith Ephraim, Lp Rosemary Hassaram, Lp Cordelia Akompong) shared their knowledge on the topic through the recipe-like presentation on the components of a stellar resume/CV. This was followed by a lively Question and Answer panel session where the panelists answered questions such as:

      • Should I create a resume for every role I apply to?
      • After you have your stellar CV what do you do?
      • Should your resume be tailored to one job family or one can be used for all job searches?
      • How to re-enter the job market after a long hiatus?
      • The need to be honest with job descriptions when preparing a resume

      Elements of writing a CV include:

      From the comments in the chat, it was obvious that this event was a great success. Thanks to the community for the informative session. Hope Part 2 follows sooner than later as requested by participants.

      GLOBAL HEALING JESUS SERVICE

      by Admin

      …. and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Romans 10:14-15.

      Under the leadership of our Father and Founder Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, the United Denominations worldwide held its Annual Global Healing Jesus Service in their various Cathedrals and Churches to listen to and watch the live stream service held on Sunday, 29th August 2021.

      All over the world, members watched an irrefutable documentary of the miraculous healing power of Jesus as seen in the recovery of sights to the blind, the lame walking, journeys made to the uttermost parts of the world, souls won, millions of books shared, among many others, which left many at the edge of their seats. Hearts of members were warmed and stirred to support generously the vision of the Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills.

      At the Makarios Cathedral, Headquarters of the Makarios Church Denomination, the atmosphere was charged with the presence of the Lord and the willingness of the people to give for the glorious cause of the Gospel.

      The Word of God was delivered with power by the Evangelist on the ‘Burden of Love’ and the need for the Church to respond to God’s love by saying thank-you and not to take this great show of love for granted. It would be wicked of us not to appreciate God’s love toward us. To crown the beautiful day, funds were raised to support the preaching of the Good News to many nations!!!

      The Global Healing Jesus Services were held across the Machaneh Church International Denomination in their various Councils – Oyibi, Adenta, Peduase and Koforidua in Ghana. Foxdale Council in Zambia was not left out. Members were blessed by the message on the ‘Two Harvests’ preached by Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills and were challenged to partner and support what God is doing now in our times – SOULWINNING!

      At the Qodesh, congregants watched the live stream service where the Evangelist preached on the ‘Burden of Love’. God demonstrated His love to us by sending His Son Jesus Christ. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16. He explained comprehensively that the phrase ‘I love you’ comes with several burdens. He stated that because humanity has been saved out of love, there is a great burden that has fallen on the Church and individuals to do something in reciprocation for the love shown. There is a need to repay good with good to match the love that has been bestowed on us.

      It is your reasonable service to sacrifice your life, to go from house to house, preaching the Gospel and witnessing to many.

      Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills

      The service the world over, provoked many Members to pledge their support to this worthy cause and become Partners of this Great Vision.

      THE POTENT IMMUNIZER (LOYALTY AND DISLOYALTY) AT THE WAY CATHEDRAL, AYAWASO.

      by Admin

      Under the auspices of Bishop Dag Heward-Mills through the Convener of Lighthouse Chapel International Denomination, Bishop Steve Asare, The Way Cathedral was blessed to receive the Ministry of Bishop Kweku Amponsah for the Thoroughly Furnished Good Works Conference 2021.

      The 2-Day power-packed Conference, which took place on Saturday, 21st and Sunday 22nd August, saw the gathering of many Pastors, Shepherds and Church Workers from the Ayawaso and Nsawam Councils of the LCI.

      Bishop Kweku Amponsah started off by reminding all gathered that, the United Denominations and the Body of Christ as a whole, are blessed to have one of God’s living Generals in the person of the Prophet, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills.

      He said it will be a difficult task to find any Christian, yet alone, a Pastor anywhere in the world, who has set up many churches, with buildings, in over 90 countries and counting, who has written several best-selling books published in many languages, who leads the winning of millions of souls through the Healing Jesus Campaign, among many other mighty works. He exhorted that such a man must be appreciated and honored greatly.

      Preaching from one of Prophet’s best-selling books, Loyalty and Disloyalty, Bishop Kweku taught on Lessons of Loyalty.

      Defining Loyalty simply as being faithful and constant, Bishop Kweku revealed that, many of the Men of God we see and adore in the Bible, whom God used powerfully, had loyalty and faithfulness as a major cornerstone.

      He revealed that Moses had the opportunity to speak directly, face to face, with God because of his faithfulness. In Numbers 12:6-8, concerning Moses, God said, “Listen to my words: When there is a prophet among you, I, the Lord, reveal myself to them in visions, I speak to them in dreams. But this is NOT TRUE of my servant Moses; he is FAITHFUL in all my house. With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?”.

      He further revealed that Daniel, who was delivered from the lions’ den, was also known to be faithful. “Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was FAITHFUL, neither was there any error or fault found in him”. Daniel 6:4

      From Hebrews 1:1-2, Bishop Kweku showed that our Savior Jesus Christ is also known to be faithful. “Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; Who was FAITHFUL to him that appointed him, as also Moses was FAITHFUL in all his house.”

      He explained that loyalty demands full persuasion and is based on principles not emotions. He admonished participants to expunge the canker of familiarity that causes many not to honor the Prophet and also makes them sway in their faithfulness.

      Day Two- Sunday, 22nd August.  Many of the congregants arrived with a heightened sense and hunger to receive more anointed teachings at the Conference. Bishop Kweku spoke extensively on Rules of Loyalty from another of Prophet’s books in the Loyalty series, Those Who Are Ignorant.

      He said that no matter what is said or done there will always be disloyal people and therefore, the message of Loyalty and Disloyalty must be preached perpetually.

      He buttressed this from Luke 6:12-13, revealing that our Savior, Jesus Christ, after long hours of Prayers and choosing carefully the 12 apostles from a pool of disciples, still had one of them being unfaithful.

      He went on to say that the continuous teaching on Loyalty is a potent immunizer against disloyalty and unfaithfulness.  He added that, most importantly, all the teachings on loyalty must be remembered in the hour of temptation, when one is faced with challenges or feels offended.

      Bishop Steve encouraged all present to rise up and be defenders of the church in their own small way, confidently and correctly!

      We have been stabilised, established and indeed, thoroughly furnished for Good Works through this timely Conference.
