The Flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has reiterated his appeal for the re-introduction of Religious and Moral Education in the curriculum of schools in order to instil the fear of the God in children.
He said the children are the future leaders and “we have to bring them up well by instilling the fear of God in them from the very beginning so that when they grow up they will not depart from it”.
Professor John Evans Atta Mills made the call at the Royalhouse Chapel International Church when he, together with the top hierarchy of the NDC joined the congregation for this year’s edition of “Week of the Altar”.
Those who accompanied him included Mr Eddie Annang, Dr Kwabena Adjei, Chairman of the party, Mr E. T. Mensah, Mrs Ama Benyiwa Doe, Baba Jamal and Mrs Margaret Clark Kweisi.
Every year, the church sets aside the first 14 days of January to fast and pray for the peace and prosperity of the nation, among others, and this year’s theme is , “Say it Again and Again, it is Well”.
He said he had been visiting Royalhouse in the past years because this is where “you always pray for the nation at the beginning of every year and I appreciate your effort for the peace and stability we are enjoying in the nation.”
He requested that the church should pray for peace, unity, genuine concern for one another and for the will of the Lord to be done in the country.
Prof. Mills advised the members of the church to avoid telling lies and insulting others.
Reverend Sam Korankye Ankrah, the General Overseer of church, said this year’s election would be won on the altar of God and said God would speak again in this nation.
Choosing Hagai chapter 2 verses 6-7 for his sermon, Rev. Ankrah said once again God would shake the heavens and the earth and sustain the peace in this nation because silver and gold belong to him.
He said God had promised to maintain the peace in this nation so those who planned evil for the country would not succeed because God knew the end from the beginning.
