Popular pastor Prophet Benjamin Fordjour, has added his voice to the recent news surrounding a recent boxing match in which one of the fighters wore a sticker bearing the image of the renowned preacher, Adom Kyei Duah, only to lose the bout.
Speaking passionately in an interview on Hitz FM on June 20, 2025, Prophet Fordjour said the incident shows a fundamental misunderstanding of faith.
“Faith does not respond to irresponsibility. Just because you believe in God doesn’t mean you can ignore the details of preparation and discipline,” he stressed.
He added that relying on spiritual symbols without putting in the necessary work is misguided.
“You think a sticker will give you strength to win when your real strength is in your character and preparation?” he asked.
The outspoken prophet further stated that true prayer is not just in words but in action.
“You can pray by speaking, but it’s safer to pray by living right. The life you live after the prayer is what gives God a reason to bless you,” he said.
Using football legend Cristiano Ronaldo as an example, he said, “You can’t ask Ronaldo to lay hands on you and then refuse to train like him but expect to be better. It doesn’t work that way.”
Prophet Fordjour concluded by reminding believers that Christianity is not just a spiritual calling but a cultural responsibility, urging people to balance faith with diligence and common sense.
