Leader and founder of the Glorious Word Power Ministry, Prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah has revealed that the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo and his wife, Rebecca Akuffo Addo promised to build a church for him prior to the 2016 election.
Prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah told Okay FM in an interview that the president has since failed to fulfil the promise.
“If people make promises to me, I don’t rely on them. Even if God through me fulfills their desires, I don’t look up to them, I look up to God because it is only His pledges that are sacrosanct.
“It is true when I used to pray for the NPP leaders, for nine months, thrice every week and Nana Akufo-Addo was part of this process, his wife was also a part.
“It was actually his wife that made that promise first, that ‘if by God’s Grace we win (the 2016 elections), we will build your church for you’ and I responded ‘Glory be to God.’
“I did not rely on it or overly expect it, and that is why I am not worried and have never complained and I never will. Moreover, I did not back them with prayers for a pledge to build my church,” he said adding; “God will in his own time build his own edifice.”
Owusu-Bempah, formerly referred to as the Nation’s Prophet due to his close links with the NPP and the Akufo-Addo government has gotten into disagreements with the party over mistreatment when he was arrested years back in a standoff with Evangelist Nana Agradaa.
Owusu-Bempah made the church building disclosures on Accra-based Okay FM on November 1, 2023; three days to the NPP presidential flagbearership contest which he has uncharacteristically refused to predict the outcome of.
