				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote>“I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence.”  Isaiah 62:6</p></blockquote>
<p>Friends,<br />
Now more than ever, God’s people must rise up and pray like never before.  The disciple said “teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples how to pray.”   Deeper dimensions of prayer are needed in order to deal with today’s demonic onslaughts.  Prayer Works 2012 promises to be one of the greatest prayer explosions in the United States.  I invite you to join me and some of the most gifted and strongest intercessors of our time—Pastor Paula White, Senior Pastor, New Destiny Christian Center (Orlando, Florida),  Reverend Dr. Jackie McCullough,  founder and senior pastor Beth Rapha (New York) and Prophet Giddeon Danso of Action Chapel in Accra, Ghana.   </p>
<p>The Enemy is at work&#8211;infiltrating our communities, families and finances.  A praying man or woman is one with the capacity to counter and over-ride the devices of the enemy.  The enemy knows that his time is short so he’s throwing everything he has at God’s children and creation.  We can deploy the hand of God and change the earth through strategic and prophetic prayers.   Inner strength and walking consistently in the presence of God come from time spent in prayer.  In prayer He breathes life and inspiration into us. In prayer He delivers us and gives us advance knowledge into the devices of the enemy.  In prayer God imparts a tenacious and audacious power to live and move in divine alignment with His plan for our lives.</p>
<p>Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, come to Prayer Works 2012 and super-impose God’s will and the power of His Kingdom over the works of the enemy! </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE ON THE DEATH OF PROF. JOHN EVANS  FIIFI  ATTA   MILLS<br />
BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHARISMATIC AND CHRISTIAN CHURCHES (NACCC)</strong></p>
<p>The regrettable news about the demise of Professor John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills reached the National Association of Charismatic and Christian Churches as a surprise. NACCC would like to express its sincerest condolences to the immediate family, the good people of Ghana, ECOWAS and the African Union.</p>
<p>Indeed, that great tree in the yard with such a soothing and abiding canopy has toppled. From where shall we draw our comfort? The world, especially Ghana and Africa, has indeed lost another great leader!  All must remember that it is not how one dies but how one lives that matters, therefore let us reflect on how he lived and all that he did for the cause of humanity, his faith in God and for the people of Ghana.</p>
<p>Professor John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills has paid his dues diligently as an academician, public servant, politician, statesman and a humble servant of the Most High God. His indelible legacies of humility, servant leadership, tenacity, peace loving, respect for rule of law and positive coexistence should serve as the bedrock of our developing democracy.<br />
NACCC would like to encourage Ghanaians to remain calm, united and prayerful as we mourn Prof. Atta Mills.</p>
<p>Long live the Republic of Ghana and the good people of Ghana.</p>
<p>His Eminence Archbishop N. Duncan-Williams<br />
Chairman</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has appealed to Ghanaians to support any well-meaning project aimed at improving the livelihood of the people. He emphasised that it is only through some of these initiatives that people’s lives would be impacted positively. Ex-President Kufuor made the appeal when he launched the Duncan-Williams Foundation in Accra. The aim of the foundation is to improve the lives of the under-privileged and the needy, mostly in rural communities.</p>
<p>Launching the project, Ex-President Kufuor urged Ghanaians to throw their weights behind people who take up such initiatives like Arch-Bishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams and many others who, one way or the other have touched the lives of individuals and society as a whole. He said such initiative can only survive if Ghanaians will support it whole-heartedly.</p>
<p>The Duncan-Williams Foundation is the brain-child of the Founder and Overseer of the Action Chapel International, Arch-Bishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams. The foundation is expected to build six classroom blocks in twelve communities across the country. Again, the foundation will soon sink bole-holes in some selected communities to improve potable water in those parts of the country. The Arch-Bishop expressed his gratitude to former President Kufuor and invited dignitaries for having had time to support this worthy course. He was very optimistic that the project will go a long way to improve the livelihood of the selected communities.</p>
<p>Former first-lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings and former Vice-President of Zambia, Mr. Nevers Mumba all lauded the initiatives, adding that the project has come at an opportune time to bring development at the door steps of communities on the African continent.</p>
<p>In a related development, the Action Chapel International held a special thanksgiving ceremony to thank God for having kept the life of Arch-Bishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams for 55 years. The Arch-Bishop turned 55 last Saturday, May 12. In special sermon, the Founder of the Charismatic Evangelistic Ministries, Rev. Steve Mensah admonished Christians, particular ministers of God to redirect and focus their message on eternity on less-privileged and the needy in society, adding that the Greatest Commission of the Lord Jesus Christ was centred on compassion, healing, caring and providing for the sick and the needy.</p>
<p>He explained that it does not augur well for Christians to always confine themselves in what he described as “comfort zones” but must all times endeavour to reach out to the poor. “Evangelism as part of the mission of my church has made huge impact on the people of the north, who are mostly peasant farmers and live in abject poverty”, he stated. “With the support of the Arch-Bishop Duncan-Williams, we managed to distribute thousand cutlasses to the farmers there”, he added. According to Rev. Mensah, this singular gesture has brought hope and a lot of smiles on the faces of the farmers in that part of the country.</p>
<p>Quoting copiously from the Bible, Rev. Mensah appealed to members of the church and Christians in general to support the Duncan-Williams Foundation to achieve its purpose. The Senior Bishop of the Action Chapel International, Bishop James Saah also added his voice for the need for members to give their widow’s mite to ensure that the foundation survives and touches the lives of many in remote and deprived communities across the country.</p>
