| Prophet David Kankam Beditor |
The Ashaiman Area Head of the Church of
Pentecost, Prophet David Kankam Beditor, has admonished congregants in the
Ashaiman Area to have confidence in the ability of the Holy Spirit to direct
their path to wealth and safety.
Speaking at the Area Week-3 programme on
Wednesday morning at the James McKeown Temple on the theme, “coming with the
Holy Ghost fire,” Prophet Beditor likened the Holy Ghost to the attributes of
fire and implied that as the smoke from a fire gives a sense of direction to a wanderer
in the forest to ran to safety, so does the Holy Spirit directs and guides the
path of the believer to their ordained destination.
He explained, “when someone is lost in the
forest, the smoke from a fire shows the person exactly where people are. It is
the same way the Holy spirit shows the church direction...in our business and
living …a church without the Holy Spirit has no sense of direction…it is the
Holy Ghost that puts the church in auto pilot. It directs the church by himself
in difficult times.”
Prophet however cautioned that the initial
stages of the Holy Ghost baptism may not be entirely gloomy, “but when you get
to the level of the Holy Spirit, you become stable…the church does not struggle
to take control of difficult situation.” he added
Furtherance to that, he expressed the point
that one cannot be filled with the Holy Spirit and continues to experience
hardship or misfortune because the power of the fire resident in them is able
to melt away all difficult situations and also cause them to do exploit.
He continued to explain that the presence of
the Holy Spirit puts to flight all alien armies from the life of the receiver. Therefore
what is expected of the Christian is to continue to flame into fire the Holy
Spirit in order to light their path.
Also speaking at the evening session of the
programme was the District Pastor of New Moneomanye District, Pastor David
Dorsu who took turns to describe the three dimensions of the Holy Spirit, “God
the father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.”
He indicated that the presences of the Holy
Spirit renews all aspects of the believers’ life and leaves no traces of
iniquities. “If the Spirit of God dwells in us, all iniquities are gone. We no
longer live for ourselves.” he said
Pastor Dorsu reassured the congregants that
the presences of the Holy Spirit would ensure that they do not struggle and
that every declaration that proceeds from their mouth shall be establish by
God.
About the Area Week
The Area Week is a period where the
