Ghanaian gospel artist Isiah Kwadwo ‘Great’ Ampong has recently been ordained as a reverend minister.
The ordination ceremony took place on Sunday, June 17, 2024, during his visit to Divine Word Ministries International in the USA.
Archbishop Kofi Adonteng Boateng, who played a crucial role in Ampong’s ordination, leads this ministry.
Archbishop Kofi Adonteng Boateng stated that Ampong was ordained in acknowledgement of his music’s significant influence as a gospel advocate.
Ampong’s commitment to sharing the gospel through his music has greatly influenced numerous individuals, making him a suitable choice for this new position.
In order to be ordained, Great Ampong needed to ask for forgiveness from both the Lord and from those he had harmed in the past.
This involved resolving his long-standing dispute with highlife icon Daddy Lumba, which had been a prominent issue in his life.
Ampong apologized for any actions he took in his dispute with Daddy Lumba that may have caused offense.
He acknowledged that emotions can lead to regrettable actions and sought forgiveness for any such incidents. “The human heart acts differently in times of anger. What he did to me, which I was not happy about—if I went below the belt and said something that offended him—I pray that God forgives me and forgives him as well,” Ampong stated.
He further added, “Whatever he also did to me, for which I held pain from 2015 to today, I stand before Archbishop Adonteng Boateng and forgive; I am letting go in the name of God.” This public declaration of forgiveness marked a significant step in healing old wounds and moving forward with a clear conscience.
Ampong also took the opportunity to apologize to anyone else he might have offended over the years.
This act of seeking forgiveness was an essential part of his preparation for becoming a reverend minister, demonstrating his commitment to living a life of integrity and reconciliation.
