In a video spotted by YEN.com.gh, the Apostle provided specific dietary advice based on his followers' birth dates, with a particular focus on 2026.
During his 31st December watch night service, Apostle Richard Kwame delivered the special message to his congregation.
For individuals born on a Saturday, he prescribed a regular diet of palm nut soup, claiming it would 'cause prosperity to chase you.' The reverse was the case for those born on a Tuesday. The prophecy also came with the specific timeline of 2026. He suggested the year as a dietary restriction for them.
He warned:
"2026, do not eat oily food, especially palm oil."
His most detailed instruction was reserved for those born on a Wednesday.
"A Wednesday-born person is a leader," Apostle Owusu declared.
Speaking further, he issued a stern warning to them against eating food prepared outside the home.
In his words:
"Eating outside destroys your handiwork."
He said this to mean that street food or restaurant meals could spiritually cancel out their leadership abilities.
The Apostle's prophetic directions generated over 150,000 views on X.
