Former Ghanaian football star Awudu Issaka has disclosed that he once saw Jesus Christ with angels hovering around him while he was in prison in Malaysia.
According to him, Jesus touched his hair and asked him (Awudu) to follow him when he joined other Christians in the prison to offer praises to God and pray.
In an interview with Sproty FM, Awudu made the revelation and gave details of how his encounter fortified him to perform a healing miracle in the prison.
According to Issaka, a winner of the 1995 Under-17 FIFA World Cup, his brief incarceration turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Issaka, a Muslim by upbringing, revealed that he would often join Christian inmates in prayer sessions.
During these prayers, he would see visions of Jesus surrounded by angels.
He recounted, “Whenever I closed my eyes and prayed with them, I saw the sky open up with Jesus and his angels. I couldn’t see him clearly because of the surrounding angels, so I asked him to reveal himself to me face-to-face.”
Issaka claimed that Jesus responded by performing miracles through him. He narrated an incident where an inmate was on the verge of losing consciousness.
“I lifted my hands and called on Jesus to give me the power to heal, and immediately I prayed for him, he regained his strength,” he said.
Issaka also shared another experience where Jesus allegedly touched his head, saying, “I am happy that you have come to me.”
This encounter left him wondering, given his Muslim background.
Eventually, officials from the Ghana Embassy intervened and secured his release.
