Mensa-Otabil

Rev. Mensa Otabil is the Founder of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC). He spoke about healing during the Good Friday Service at ICGC Christ Temple in East Teshie, Accra.

He said Jesus Christ took on our sickness through His suffering. Therefore, we do not need to pray excessively for healing. Our trust in this act leads to our healing.

The service was themed “By His Stripes We Are Healed.” The key scripture was Isaiah 53:4-5. Rev. Otabil emphasized that asking for healing does not depend on how well we pray.

He explained that trusting in what Jesus has done allows us to receive healing. He referenced the story of Jesus healing Peter's mother-in-law with a simple touch.

Rev. Otabil encouraged the congregation to follow this example. Jesus did not pray much; He just touched her hand and she was healed.

“You don’t need someone to shout at you to get well,” he said. “Just know that Jesus is here, and He will heal you.”

He reminded everyone that Jesus carried our pain when He died. Rev. Otabil urged congregants to show faith and receive their healing.
