Leadership Training Seminar

NANA KOFI ABUNA V SPEECH AT THE BINDURA CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP (BCF) DURING THE LEADERSHIP TRAINING SEMINAR HELD AT THE TESANO BAPTIST CHURCH ACCRA, GHANA UNDER THE THEME GIVING GOD GLORY BY STUDYING HIS WORD

OCTOBER 18, 2010

To God be the glory for the great things He has done at the Bindura Christian Fellowship.

I appreciate the Almighty God for the priviledge given me to chair this all important Leadership Training Seminar starting from today 18^th October, 2010. I also appreciate the event planners for allowing them to be used by God to effect both moral and spiritual change in the lives of people, to God alone be the glory.

I also appreciate the presence of H.E.  Jean-Piere Tete Gbikpi-Benissan (The Togo Ambassador & Dean of Ambassadors in Ghana) who is also the Special Guest of Honour of this great seminar.

I want to salute the courage of all the men of God around and the participants for their time. God bless you all.

We are all here to receive the WORD. In Isaiah 9:8, the Lord sent a word unto Jacob and it hath lighted upon Israel. The word of God will be coming our way during this programme which will cause us to give glory to His name. He has not asked the seed of Jacob to seek him in vain.

God is saying no matter the dimension of glory we may have experienced till date, I am again moving you forward to higher dimension of glory.

Again, in case anyone has suffered any setback or any form of stagnation or frustration in the past, God is saying through this leadership training seminar, I am bringing you out of every shame and reproach into realms of glory you had never thought possible in your life time. That for your shame you shall have double.

The question then is,

how do I partake of this wave of glory? and what does it take to gain access to our next level of glory through his word. The Bible says, “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Cor 3:18).

We look to Christ through the word to experience a new level of glory. You will recall that God’s word is likened to a mirror in the epistle of Apostle James.

Therefore to move from glory to glory, we must stay on the word for every change we desire.

• We must engage the word in confronting the challenges of life

• We must apply ourselves to the revealed word of God.

• We must put the word to work as a life style.

Once again, I salute the purposefulness of the organizers as I welcome all to this life transforming seminar.

Thank you and God bless you all.
