The general overseer of Kingdom Priority Emmbassy at spintex, Apostle Jeff has cautioned individuals who are addicted to hard drugs to refrain from it because it has a long lasting health problems if they do not stop using them.
Speaking to Ohene Kinnah on Plan B FM’s late afternoon show EBAANOSEN, Apostle Jeff, explained that “hard drugs usage can make you feel good in short time today but could have everlasting health implications on yourself” he said. He advised the youth to stay away from drugs and alcoholism
His comments was in reaction to what the Parish Priest of the St. Augustine Catholic Church in Ashaiman, Rev. Fr Ignatius Ayivor (SVD), caution against the use of drugs and alcohol in troubled times which he believes will not solve their problems.
He observed that over the years, many have failed to see that after the substance leave their system, they were confronted with the same realities they wanted to run away from.
Delivering his homily, Rev. Fr Ayivor said it was disturbing how deep people have gone into the use of harmful drugs and have become addicted.
“Some people cannot live without ‘wee’ and are always looking for some to buy and smoke but it cannot save you,” he cautioned.
He said some people had become victims of substance abuse because they spoke to the wrong people for help during their difficult moments.
He told the congregation to look up to God for solutions to their problems and not allow people to lead them astray.
“Pain could come in the physical, psychological, emotional and other ways which affect everyone. Even Jesus Christ experienced pain for the purposes of saving you and me,” he said.
He said in life, one has to lose something to gain something but during that period, a person has to be careful about how he or she handles the period so that their spiritual lives are not compromised.
Rev. Fr. Ayivor said God was an ever-present help so He should always be the first to run to for help and He would provide support to deal with that period of life.
