Members of the Aglow International, Ghana, have vowed to wage a relentless battle against the practice of homosexuality to prevent it from gaining root in the country to devour the moral values embedded in Ghanaians.
They have also vowed to fight against the practice of occultism, ritual murders and other heinous crimes, describing them as satanic tendencies gradually creeping into the country to destroy our value system.
Describing the practice of homosexuality , occultism and ritual murders as abominable, likely to invoke the wrath of God on Ghanaians, members of the group said the time had come for all decent Ghanaians to join hands with Aglow International, Ghana, to ward off such satanic practices.
They pointed out that they had a heavenly mission to accomplish to redeem the country from falling into the hands of evil doers, and nothing would stop them from achieving their goals.
Stressing that the battle line had already been drawn and with fasting and prayers as their main weapons, they were likely to win the battle to redeem the country from falling into satanic practices gradually creeping into the mainstream of the society.
Members of the group made the vow at a five-day convention held at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi.
About 2000 members across the country attended the convention, which was on the theme: “I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”.
Aglow International is a network of care and prayerful women, dedicated to promoting the welfare and caring for women and teenage girls.
Over the years, Aglow International, Ghana, which has over 200 fellowships throughout the country, has ministered to the welfare of women, irrespective of colour, race, religion and creed.
Their mission is not only to help restore and mobilise women around the globe and promote gender reconciliation in the body of Christ as designed by God, but also to amplify the awareness of global concerns from the biblical perspective.
Addressing members of the group as part of their intercessional prayers, a board member of Aglow, Mrs Gifty Affenyi Dadzie, said occultism and ritual murders were part of the evil ways of gaining power and riches for the selfish gains of people who indulged in such practices.
She pointed out that Ghana was blessed to be at the forefront of leading Africa to the limelight of economic emancipation to accelerate the socio-economic development of the continent endowed with human and natural resources.
Expressing concern about some negative practices such as homosexuality, occultism and ritual murders practised by a few for their selfish gains, Mrs Affenyi Dadzie, a former member of the Council of State, noted that members of Aglow had gird their loins to combat such negative practices to prevent them from gaining root in the country.
She said as God relied on Moses to redeem the Israelites from the bondage of slavery, so would He rely on Aglow International, Ghana, to redeem the country from falling into the hands of homosexuals , occultists and ritual murderers.
“ We will never allow the spirit of lesbianism, gayism and occultism to gain root in Ghana,” she vowed, adding that “we will continue to fast and pray for God to change the mindset of such people and redeem the country from their evil deeds” .
She tasked members of the group to remain holy in all their deeds to enable them win their battle against evil doers, stressing that “ The Lord has power to redeem His people, and the gates of hell will not prevail”,
Earlier, the National President of Aglow International , Ghana, Mrs Dorothy Danso, urged Ghanaians to eschew any negative attitudes likely to undermine the peace being enjoyed nation-wide.
She pointed out that God always grieved over evil practices such as corruption, greediness, violence and immorality among others.
Mrs Danso said as God directed Noah to build the Ark to prevent those He had blessed from being destroyed alongside evil doers, so had He directed Aglow International to protect the blessed in Ghana.
“God’s hands are upon Ghana, and no matter the challenges, Ghana and Aglow will move forward,” she noted.
She called for public support in cash and kind to enable them complete all the needed educational infrastructure to enable as many females as possible to be admitted into the school to develop their potentials.
In his address, the Ashanti Regional Minister, Mr Kofi Opoku Manu, commended Aglow International, Ghana, for its commitment to sustain peace in the country.
He said the peace being enjoyed today could be attributed to their intercessional prayers.
He also commended them for their sense of initiative, making it possible for them to establish a vocational school to build the capacity of young and needy females.
He donated 100 bags of cement as his contribution towards the completion of the project on schedule.
