‘God does not choose leaders for countries’ - Pastor Mensa Otabil is wrong!!!

There is no doubt that the most respected Man of God in Ghana today 2024 is Pastor Mensah Otabil, the founder and General Overseer of the International Central Gospel Church and Chancellor of Central University.

For me in particular, one of the reasons why I respect him so much is that notwithstanding his awesome fame, power, wealth and influence, he simply goes by the name Pastor Mensa Otabil.

Some, we know, call themselves by grandiose titles, almost heavenly appellations as “if they are above we mortals who listen to their sermons.

I find it very compelling but most unfortunate that I must take my pen and openly disagree with this learned Man of God, Chancellor of a university.

According to a widely circulated report published on the front page of the Chronicle on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, Pastor Mensa Otabil is quoted as saying “God does NOT choose leaders for countries…”

I think the pastor made this declaration for him to run away from anybody pestering him with a question as to who according to his visions and dreams, will win Election 2024.

Every election season is a season of prophecies and electoral predictions.

Right now, as I write these lines, I am torn into two by two very respected persons, Men of God giving me iron cast prophecies:

The Pastor of my church, Rev. Alex Osei Addae says emphatically that John Mahama will lose Election 2024. He told me this in 2023 and to date, he always sees me with smiles, saying confidently, “Captain, don’t mind John Mahama.

Captain, I am NPP body and soul, so this prophecy by Rev. Alex suits me fine indeed.

But, I have another pastor, who has been my law client for over 20 years. Most of his predictions come true. In fact, because of the precision of his prophecies, I always develop goose pimples when I see him.

He tells me confidently that the NPP will lose Election 2024 and if we don’t manage the loss properly, we will become like the CPP. Rev. Adotey says that there is no way Bawumia will win the election – it is a done deal for John Mahama.

Clash

The two pastors clashed in my office one day and each of them instructed me to confidently write down his prediction which I did. Come December 7, 2024, we will know whether Rev. Alex or Rev. Adotey has won.

Against this background, I painfully remember that Pastor Mensah Otabil is pushing Almighty God out of the equation when he says “God does not choose leaders for countries…” It is a misleading statement.

In the year 2000, I fasted and prayed for one hundred days as I campaigned for Parliament. Some people told me of victory visions and truly I won.

In 2007, I campaigned for the NPP flag bearer all over the country. A church of Pentecost elder in faraway Sefwi Wiawso called me on the phone and encouraged me to go ahead with vigour because I would win.

Two months later, the same church elder called me and told me, “Captain, you will be disqualified” and that was what happened.

The other day, I heard Pastor Mensah Otabil saying he reads the Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation every calendar year. So, he knows only too well how God uses prophets, some of them false, to get kings to go to war and lose.

Nobody, no mortal, can have power or authority over anybody unless Almighty God endorses same.

“God has spoken once, twice have I heard this, that power belongeth to God.

Who am I to quote the Bible to Pastor Mensah Otabil but I dare say openly pastor that you are wrong” Utltimate choice of who will win the election 2024 is from Almighty God.
