Apostle Eric Nyamekye, the head of the Church of Pentecost, revealed that a 7-year-old Sunday school student prayed over the body of his idol-worshiping father and revived him.
On May 3, 2023, at the 46th Session of the General Council Meetings of the Church at the Pentecost Convention Centre – Gomoa-Fetteh, he made this statement during his State of the Church Address.
According to the apostle, the miracle was performed at the Worawora Government Hospital in the Oti Region, according to the Church of Pentecost’s official website.
He claimed that when he insisted on praying for the boy’s father, the boy’s father had already been declared dead by medical professionals, and his body was being prepared for the mortuary.
“To the surprise of the nurses and doctors at the facility, his seven-year-old son, Emmanuel Kofi Kpentor, said he would not allow them to take the body of his dead father to the mortuary until he had prayed for the father to wake up,” thecophq.org quotes Apostle Nyamekye as saying.
After praying over the body, he continued, Kpentor’s father was being carried to the mortuary when the body began to tremble.
“By God’s grace, he was restored to life, surrendered his life to Christ, and, together with his wife, was baptised on June 26, 2022.”
At the event, which was attended by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and other dignitaries, the revelation was received with loud cheers and applause from the sizable crowd of Christian faithful.
