In a bold and unyielding statement, Rev. David Armstrong, the founder and leader of the Mo Mary Fellowship Ministry, has called out the trend of using prophecies and prayers to manipulate the political landscape during election season.
Speaking at a recent gathering in Kumasi Ampayoo, located in Ghana’s Ashanti region, Rev. Armstrong emphasized that God’s divine knowledge transcends human attempts to influence political events through self-serving agendas.
Rev. Armstrong’s remarks strike at the heart of a growing phenomenon where individuals and religious leaders make prophetic declarations about electoral outcomes. “Get away from your fake prophecies and hypothetical prayers,” he urged the audience, stressing that these practices are misguided and harmful.
According to him, misrepresenting spiritual authority for personal or political gain undermines the true essence of faith.
As elections loom, the pressure to sway public opinion and influence outcomes has led some to employ religious rhetoric as a tool of persuasion.
However, Rev. Armstrong rejected this notion, asserting that God is all-knowing and has already determined who will lead the nation next.
“You cannot use your evil agenda to change the mind of God,” he stated emphatically, reiterating a core tenet of faith: that divine will prevails over human schemes.
Rev. Armstrong highlighted how the intertwining of religion and politics can lead to the distortion of both.
By labeling election season as an opportunity to “know God,” some spiritual leaders may misguide their followers and sow discord, rather than fostering genuine understanding and devotion.
In his call for reflection, Rev. Armstrong encouraged believers to focus on authentic faith practices that align with the teachings of compassion, justice, and integrity, rather than predictions tied to political ambitions.
