With song ministration led by the Destiny Project Choir, staff of the company sang praises to God for protecting them from the beginning of the year and giving them the hope of entering another year.
The theme for the event was: “If the Lord does not build the house, the work of the builders is useless, if the Lord does not protect the city, it is useless for the sentries to stand guard.” (Psalm 127:1)
Preaching the sermon, Bishop George Adjeman of the Winners Chapel, Ghana, commended the workers for taking a break from their routine work to express gratitude to God.
Thanksgiving
Bishop Adjeman said “God created us in his own image and it is a privilege for us to look back and say thank you,” adding, “When you say thank you to God, He will reach out to you and it will also endear you to Him.”
He said the Bible charged all mankind to recognise the existence and omnipotence of God and acknowledge Him as the source of their lives, for which reason there was the need for them to express gratitude to Him.
The Bishop urged that in spite of the unfair nature of the world, it was important for people to have faith in God, who would guide them to overcome the challenges of life.
He said just as Daniel overcame the hungry lions in a den because of his faith in God, those who believed in Him would be able to overcome the lions of the present world.
