An elder in the church of Pentecost says Christians are supposed to fear witches and wizards but rather see them as a blessing in disguise because they exist to help Christians strengthen their faith in God.
According to Elder Kwesi Adu, it is worrying to find that Christians pay so much attention to witches and wizards and some even express grave fear for them.
“Christians must recognize the existence of witches, curses and evil spells, but should not worry about them because we have protection from God against such things,” he said.
Elder Adu, who worships with the Jaupong District of the Church of Pentecost in the Volta Region, maintained that God is omnipotent and could totally destroy the devil with one word, “but he allows Satan to torment and tempt us to see if we truly love Him.”
He urges Christians to rely on Jesus Christ the savior and stop praying against the devil because it is God who created the devil.
Elder Adu added that it is the duty of every Christian to strengthen themselves in the power of the Holy Spirit to ensure the the devil does not gain grounds in their lives.
