General News of Saturday, 3 January 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God, Ghana, Rev Stephen Wengam, has underscored the need to shape citizens who are demonstrably patriotic, incorruptible, and hardworking in order to advance the cause of national development. Rev Wengam made the call while speaking at the Watch Night Service of Cedar Mountain Chapel in Accra to usher in the New Year. He declared, “Even though there will be challenging moments, 2026 will bring greater prosperity and favour.”Drawing lessons from the life of the Patriarch Abraham, whom he described as the father of the Christian faith, Rev Wengam expressed the belief that adherence to authentic Christian faith can significantly accelerate nation-building. The General Superintendent bemoaned the practice where some Christians serve God only for what they can receive, without embracing proper teachings on holy and righteous living. “That was not the kind of Christian faith bequeathed to us,” Rev Wengam emphasised.
