DAILY GRAPHIC, Monday, April 17, 2012, Pg.49. Revival Flames ordains new pastors

Story: Mary Ankrah

FOUR members of the Revival Flames Bible Church International at La, Accra, have been ordained pastors of the church.

They are Christian Kofi Awardzi, Emmanuel Owiredu-Antwi, Constance Acheampong and Mavis Folson.

Preaching on the theme: “Walking with Destiny,” at the ordination service, the Protocol Officer of the Ghana Apostolic Church, Reverend Kofi Addison, observed that destiny was a preordained life that each individual brought into the world.

He said the most tragic thing in the world was that many people did not know their destiny.
Reverend Addison said one could only realise one’s true self by discovering, uncovering and recovering one’s destiny to fulfil the purpose of one’s mission on earth.

“A seed cannot germinate if it does not get in contact with its source,” he said, explaining that one could discover himself only by getting closer to God.

“Deciding to walk with God is not a mistake; but it is for man to identify who he is through God,” he added.
He urged the congregation to work very hard to uncover their destinies, no matter the challenges, and added that there were sacrifices they needed to make to achieve that purpose.

The Head Pastor of the church, Reverend Godfried Oppong Diallo, advised the new pastors to serve in humility and not look down on any one, adding that in all their endeavours, they should ascribe all glory to the Almighty God.
