ACCRA, GHANA — As part of Theovision International’s mission to make all hear God’s voice the Christian ministry donated 2,500 audio Bible sticks to the Ghana Armed Forces at the Command Officers’ Mess, Burma Camp, Accra.
The Bible stick is a small black digital audio player that contains the Word of God in a dramatized voice designed for military troops to help build and strengthen their spirituality. These Audio Bibles are in the native language of the troops, i.e., Ga, Ewe, English, Twi, and Hausa.
The Chief of Staff at the General Headquarters of the Ghana Armed Forces, Major General Nicholas Peter Andoh, in his address after the presentation ceremony stated that,
“A man is as strong as his spirit and not his physical being and anything that enhances the acceleration of the Word of God and also fastens its practice goes to strengthen the ability of the troops. And our belief is that this Audio device is going to brighten the understanding of troops with the Word of God and also enhance their practice. When you are working and the Word of God is at the back of what you are doing, you are courteous, you will look at human knowledge, and that is what the Armed Forces does. And this is why we think that these Audio Bible sticks are going to better the lives of our troops.”
He expressed his profound gratitude by thanking Theovision and her partners for their diligent work and said that the objective of this presentation would be achieved.
The Director General of the Religious Affairs of the Ghana Armed Forces, Naver Comodo Adjei Djan, who also doubles as the Chaplain, could not contain the joy of how these audio Bible sticks are going to help the Force. He explained that,
“Bibles are already given to our troops to help sustain their faith, and so this being an Audio Bible will go a very long way to support them when on missions, and that alone is encouraging because they can play it when alone or listen to it at any time, especially when it is in the languages of the Ghana Armed Forces, thus our mother tongue.”
Speaking with the Executive Vice President for Theovision, Mr. Theodore Philip Asare, shared his excitement of how the troops are going to benefit from the Word of God.
“This act is to make sure that everyone including our military also benefits by hearing God’s voice in the way they best understand that’s why we are here to present these audio Bibles so that, as they are on the field or being deployed, they are not deprived of the Word.”
Indeed, it’s a dream come true to see the Ghana Armed Forces benefit from hearing God’s voice in the language they best understand. They can now hear God speak to them in their heart language everywhere without being deprived of the Word of God.
