At the recent Christian National Thanksgiving Service held at the Ohene Konadu Auditorium of the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), for the new Mahama administration, Archbishop Charles Agyinasare of Perez Chapel International prayed for "unity of purpose" as President sets his "reset" agenda in motion.
The founder of Perez Chapel International prayed against "infighting among the rank and file of the party over positions," citing Scripture that says, "Where there is envy and strife, there is every manner of evil work." The Archbishop prayed to God to grant the new government "grace to restore our economic fortunes by giving them creative and productive ideas." He also beseeched the Almighty to "give them the power or ability to overturn unfavourable external outlooks on our economy," interceding: "We ask that this new government will have resilience against external factors." Furthermore, Archbishop Agyinasare prayed that the new administration would provide Ghanaians with leadership that inspires the next generation and youth "to have a love for the nation and the determination to make Ghana great and proud again." "We pray for inspiring leadership that will have a listening ear for feedback because feedback will always help us to be better," he supplicated.
On the issue of illegal mining, Archbishop Agyinasare asked God to give the new administration "innovative and smart ideas" to tackle the menace, noting that "Ghana is blessed with abundant resources.
However, these resources must be explored in a safe manner so that our environment is not destroyed." "We pray that they will be able to transform these resources locally so that we can create value and sustainable employment for our youth," he added.
