In this article we will be discussing the top pastors in Ghana we believe are impacting the world in a positive way. In Jeremiah 3:15 God said, “I will give you pastors according to my own heart who shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.” A pastor is a divine gift bestowed upon a congregation by God. However, a gift can only serve as a benefit or blessing if it is accepted. Within the Ghanaian church, there are pastors who are undoubtedly God’s gifts to the nation of Ghana. We can only reap the rewards of these men of God if we embrace them as the gifts that they are.
Even though Jesus was an extraordinary individual, many failed to benefit him because they despised the gift that he was.
Matthew 23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.”
The church and the nation of Ghana will not experience the divine intervention of God unless we declare, “Blessed are the pastors who come in the name of the Lord.” The objective of this article is to pay tribute to and express gratitude for these men of God who have been a tremendous blessing to both the church and the nation of Ghana. The list below is presented without any specific ranking.
