By Moutakilou Mumuni, 25 January 2013

Ghana beat Mali by one goal to nil.

And the scorer, Wakaso Mubarak after scoring his goal was to admire his T-shirt that read "Allah is great".

James Appiah, the coach of Ghana, has condemned the act of the player: "I told him at halftime, it was not a good thing and he would not have done that. I hope that this will serve as a lesson to other players. "

Wakaso Mubarak was warned with a yellow card and as it is his second of the competition, he was suspended for the next encounter on Monday against Niger.

    All Unrighteousness is Sin (I John 5:17a) If you are not born again or maybe you are a compromiser or backslider, you must do something as a matter of urgency. He that commits sin is of the devil, I John 3:8 (I John 3:8). If you are into lying, cheating, bitterness, keeping malice, pride, manifesting anger, quarreling, unforgiveness, hatred, envy, contention, strife, bitterness, speaking evil of others, taking or giving bribe, selfishness, deception, kidnapping, smuggling, falsification of documents, swearing, extortion and other sinful character dispositions, you must repent. Such evil and wicked character will hinder the manifestation of abundant blessings upon your life. If you are into masturbation, fornication, adultery, prostitution (private or public), patronizing prostitutes, abortion, lesbianism, homosexualism, watching pornography (I Corinthians 6:9-10), or any form of immorality, you need to repent. Whatever be the area of your sin, you must repent and make amends. Are you into idolatry, do you make or use charms, rituals, bow down to images, do you rob or steal? Are you into cultism, whether open or secret cult? Do you practice witchcraft? Do you smoke cigarette or hemp? Do you sell them or offer them to people? Do you smoke or sniff hard drugs such as cocaine, heroin, captain black, hashish or other banned drugs or snuff? Are you lusting - lusting after men or women, covetous, alcohol drinking? You must repent and give your life to Jesus Christ. Are you into the business of marriage and divorce? Are you married to more than one person? Repent!! Marriage is between a man and a woman. Marriage is for better and for worse until death separates (Matthew 19:3-6). ‘Wherefore they are no more two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together let no man put asunder (separate)’. Amend your ways and God will bless you. Proverbs 28: 13 says, ‘‘He that covers his sins shall not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy.’’ You must not therefore hide your sins. You must repent of them, confess and forsake them. A Christian is not a sinner and a sinner is not a Christian. If you must be a blessed child of God, you must repent of your sins and give your life to Jesus Christ. If you believe Jesus Christ today, righteousness of God will come into your life and abundant life will be your portion. If you neglect this call to repentance and salvation, you will not escape hell fire (Hebrews 2:3). In Luke 13:3, Jesus said, ‘I tell you, Nay: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish’. Matthew 6:33 says, ‘‘But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you’’ Peace, joy, healing, deliverance and all blessings will be your portion. You will make heaven at last, as you continue in righteousness.

    If you have decided now to give your life to Jesus Christ and to forsake your sinful lifestyle, you need to pray this prayer: Almighty God, I come unto you in the name of Jesus. Father I confess that I am a sinner. All my sins I confess to you. I am very sorry for all my sins (mention those you can remember). Lord I promise you that from today I will never continue in them anymore. I believe that Jesus Christ died and rose again on the third day for my justification. Almighty God, use the blood of Jesus to wash my sins away. Lord Jesus, come into my heart, be my Lord and personal Savior. I surrender my life to you. Cancel my name from the book of death and write it in the book of life. Give me power to sin no more. In Jesus name I pray. Amen!!
