Dr. Mensah Otabil, has admonished the Ghanaian youth, especially women, to stop wasting their youthful days on ‘old men.’<\/p>\n
The founder and general overseer of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), has drawn the attention of the youth on some topical issues.<\/p>\n
According to the outspoken preacher, it is prudent for the youth to make good use of their opportunities and potentials in times of abundance.<\/p>\n
Preaching on the topic \u2018Abundance\u2019, Pastor Mensah Otabil said as there are years of abundance, so there will be years of scarcity.<\/p>\n
Otabil’s sermon comes on the back of actress Moesha Boduong’s statement to the CNN on sex and love around the world.<\/p>\n
The man of God has therefore cautioned young ladies to be \u2018wise\u2019 while in their youth so they don\u2019t regret and hop from one church to the other to seek the face of God when no man is coming their way at old age.<\/p>\n
The motivational speaker went on to use young beautiful lady analogy. He stated that a lot of ladies become very silly in their youth when they have abundance of beauty and make very silly mistakes about their future.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cAbundance comes, maybe when you have abundance of beauty. \u2026Sometimes you see an 18-year-old, 19-year-old, 20-year-old young lady going out with a 55-year-old man. You have abundance of beauty, but you are not harnessing your moment well because one of these days, you\u2019ll be 35[-years-old] and at 35, you\u2019d realise: \u2018Wow, I wasted my time on that old man!\u2019 Now every young man who should have married you, thinks you are old, used, and discarded. That\u2019s when people [ladies] start going to church, worshipping, fasting and praying and hoping that God will turn things around.<\/i>\u201d<\/h3>\n
\u201cAbundance becomes abundance of strength, abundance of beauty, abundance of job opportunities \u2013 when you have so much, people are giving you jobs or abundance of time, when you are young, you have so much time, or abundance of popularity.<\/i> Don\u2019t ever deceive yourself that the years of abundance will be forever. There will be a year of scarcity as predictable as the years of abundance are,\u201d\u00a0he warned.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Pastor Otabil also advised young people to use warily, whatever they have in abundance to cushion themselves against the days of scarcity.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cDon\u2019t be wasteful; don\u2019t spend all your money on perishable and depreciating commodities. Spending money buying cars, buying clothes, which devalue over time, and not appreciate in value. Be wise,<\/i>\u201d he advised.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
