Sharing is love – Rev. Danquah

He said sharing what they had with those who lacked was one way of demonstrating true love among themselves.
Special exercise
Rev. Danquah was speaking on the church’s premises at the closing session of a month-long exercise aimed at sharing the blessings of God with others.
The head pastor explained that the special exercise was in two dimensions – spiritual and social.
According to him, members of the church fasted and prayed for a month to intercede for the nation and its people.
The theme for the spiritual exercise was: “The Lord will Prosper us “(Nehemiah 2:20)”.
Rev. Danquah said just as in the biblical days, Nehemiah, though a wealthy person, did not keep his blessing to himself but mobilised the Israelites to rise up, pray and build a prosperous Israel, so had the congregation of the Assemblies of God, Liberty Centre decided to help build mother Ghana for the benefits of its people.
Social
He said during the month–long intercessory programme, the church attended to the needs of orphans and schoolchildren

Message to Ghanaians
Rev. Danquah advised Ghanaians to stop blaming each other for every mishap, and rather pull resources for the benefit of all.
Blame–game
“Let us stop the blame game at home, school, church, workplaces and in the political arena and try hard to share whatever is available with others in order to build a supportive, peaceful and prosperous society,” he concluded.
