Stop “back to sender” prayers - Apostle Onyinah
Apostle Dr Opoku Onyinah, President of the Ghana
Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC), has
asked Christians to stop offering “back to
sender” prayers.

He said such prayers were not supported by the
Bible, and were, therefore, against the will of
God.

Apostle Onyinah made the call at this year’s
Convention of the Global Evangelical Church at the
Church's Convention and Retreat Grounds at Wumenu,
near Kpetoe.

The Convention was on the theme: “Knowing God
the Holy Spirit.”

Apostle Onyinah noted that many Christians were
‘falling in love’ with praying for perceived
enemies to die, and described such prayers as
“gimmicks” and “wrong.”

He pointed out that God does not answer such
prayers, and urged Christians to follow the
example of Jesus Christ and show love for all.

“Jesus is our example. We must be agents of
peace and love. The enemy has no power over us. We
fly above them if we show love and desist from
sin,” Apostle Onyinah said.

“We must be sources of blessing to the world and
desist from cursing and wishing people dead or
destroyed,” he added.

Apostle Onyinah, therefore, charged Christians not
to waste time and energy on such prayers, instead,
spend time in worshiping God to get closer to
Him.
