The Queen of Gyinyase in Kumasi, Oheneyere Akosua Fobi Kusikyi II, who succeeded Oheneyere Abena Ako Bensua II, has visited the Caravan of Prayer Outreach Ministry to offer thanks to God and also seek His guidance, protection, blessing and direction.
The queen emphasised the need for God’s involvement in every aspect of life to ensure success.
Accompanied by her elders, Oheneyere Kusikyi II said her doors were widely opened for good advice and suggestions for the growth and development of Gyinyase and Asanteman as a whole.
The Head Pastor of the church, Apostle Johnson Ackah Braimah, described Gyinyasehemaa as “development-oriented queen” and asked for co-operation from the residents of Gyinyase in the interest of development.

He said for Gyinyasehemaa to come to church to offer thanks to God is a clear manifestation that the old system of kingship, in which chiefs and queens were confined to palaces alone, is no more in existence, but rather Christianity has improved modern-day kingship.
Apostle Braimah prayed for Gyinyasehemaa and her elders in order to have a successful tenure to the glory of God.
He appealed to her to focus more on the transformation of the youth in her community since they are the future leaders.
He said in every community, there are some recalcitrant and wayward youths who find themselves in drug addiction and other social vices that threaten the peace and development of Ghana; hence, she should include it in her plans to organise community durbars to talk to the youth about the dangers associated with these vices.
Apostle Braimah believes that when this is done, the youth will be transformed, and it will go a long way to produce quality and vibrant future leaders.
He assured Gyinyasehemaa and her elders of his full support from the church, be it spiritual or physical.
He highlighted Jeremiah 29:7 and shared the Scripture with Gyinyasehemaa, her elders and his congregation.
