Some Muslim youth wielding machetes and other crude weapons on Wednesday afternoon attacked and vandalised the Odorkor branch of the Glorious Word and Power Ministries International in Accra.
The Church, headed by Rev Isaac Owusu Bempah, was attacked following death prophecies he released on New Year’s Eve. Click to read
The attack on the Odorkor branch of the church, was the youths’ way of expressing their fury against some prophecies made by the leader of the church during Monday’s watch night service.
They threatened to deal with Rev Owusu Bempah till he comes out to apologise for the ‘prophecies of doom’.
They destroyed the signboard at the church premises before heading into the main auditorium.
In reaction to the attack on his facebook page, Rev Owusu Bempah quoted from Matthew 16:18 which says "...I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it".
"Let’s pray for the church and let’s be strong as Christians," the post added.
The controversial prophet made several predictions during the 31st December service in his church, noting that several prominent men, including an ex-president and a former first lady, would die in the course of the year.
The prophet also stated in his revelation that a National Islamic funeral beckon which would be the funeral of a Vice President of a sitting president and a Chief Imam, if nothing is done to avert the doom.

Paul in the Bible became a Muslim to win those at the middle east to Christ. Here we are some fake ministers calling themselves prophet want to bring division. Enough of this nosenseeeeeeee. HE wrote if I go to Rome I do what Romans do.
pleas don't say moselm youth but some people
Daddy if I where u from now onward will not speak again nd only tell what u see to ppl closer to u nd allow other things to happen ...to many foolishness happening
If this was to be Nigeria where a Christian church putting such a grave things on air....by now the country is burning.... Ghana is such a peaceful nation. So please,so call pastors we beg you stop this.
Let uproot the reason before we talk about reaction. Yes what they did was wrong but they are justified because owusu bempah's nosenseeeee must stop and if this is the only way so be it.
Why should anyone condone vandalism of such sort? Just because Rev. Owusu Bempah prophesied that, if we don't pray, the VP n the Chief Imam may die! U see, this is what happens and countries don't accept muslims! The attention is on WHY SHOULD YOU DESTROY ITEMS OF SOMEONE WHO IS SAYING HE HAS HEARD FROM GOD? Years back, when some of his prophecies came to pass, why wasn't he hailed? Fire outbreaks, fmr Veeps passing on, elections, etc... The condition associated with his prophetic claims are very CLEAR!; "IF". I'm not supporting his manner of delivery, that doesn't mean the people with their names mentioned shouldn't be precautious! I'm totally flabbergasted n utterly dismayed n don't understand some Christians, when young muslims are doing things of this nature to a 'pastor'(even if u think he's not), instead of People (Christians the most) UTTERLY CONDEMNING the actions of these violent rage ousted young men, we are here busily defending them! Let's WAKE UP, Christians, WAKE UP!!
Are there no prophecies about marriages that cannot be sustained?
How come the prophet didn't see the vandalizing coming and his marriage collapsing? Fake pastors nkoaa. One of the cardinal characteristics of a fake pastor is that; they bleach to become fair. Aboaa! You will learn sense next time
You have spoken well Akator, I wouldn't have said much. well done.
more of such attacks will be welcomed. attack all of them if not these ***barred word*** will continue. more attacks.
