Speaking at separate church building dedication programmes in Accra, they said with God in the driving seat of affairs, the nation would overcome all challenges.
The two ministers of God are the Chairman of Christ Apostolic Church International (CACI), Apostle Dr Stephen Kwame Amoani, and the Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church of Ghana, Most Rev. Prof. Emmanuel Asante.
“The country will meet the targets of our developmental efforts and enjoy all we are looking for as a nation if we place God first in our national affairs. The Lord should, therefore, be at the centre of all national plans and we need to invite him not only at the individual level but also at the national level,” Apostle Dr Amoani said at the dedication of a modern church complex for the North Kaneshie Central branch of the CACI in Accra.
Most Rev. Prof. Asante, who is also the Chairman of the National Peace Council (NPC), made the call at the dedication of a chapel for the Dansoman Circuit of the Mount Olivet Methodist Society, saying “With God all things are possible."
