Two Ghana Team members were recently invited to speak at a women’s conference with the theme of “Women on Mission.” Their teaching was well received by the audience, but it was followed by some questionable activity led by a prophetess. The team has been told that these kinds of “deliverance activities” are common in many Baptist churches across Ghana. Please pray that these practices will be understood as wrong and that they will be abandoned. Ask the Lord to help church leaders to recognize them as a carryover from African traditional religion and take a stand against them. Pray for believers to recognize that they are already protected by the blood of Jesus and have no need for a prophet or prophetess to do anything “supernatural” on their behalf.
