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 done 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 readied for the mortuary.
Apostle Nyamekye is quoted by thecophq.org as saying, “To the amazement of the nurses and physicians at the facility, his seven-year-old son, Emmanuel Kofi Kpentor, claimed he would not permit them to carry the body of his deceased father to the mortuary until he had prayed for the father to wake up.”
After praying over the dead, he continued, Kpentor’s father was being transported to the mortuary when the body began to tremble.
By God’s grace, he was brought back to life, gave his life to Christ, and on June 26, 2022, he and his wife were baptized.
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.
