Q&A’s
The National Committee of Ghana for Israel Pilgrimage (NCGIP) is a consolidated Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem (Israel) with its network across the world with a Mission to enroll 1 million pilgrims in every partner nation to visit Jerusalem, and to support its members by way of providing some subvention to cover cost of pilgrimage to Israel as we stand to express solidarity and to honor Jerusalem the chosen city of God with a kiss and love.
We believe this journey marks the beginning of our spiritual transformation of a 1000-year rule of the saints on earth who will not bow to Baal as we wait for the appearance of the messiah, the King of King by a breach of the conditions or till the number of his days be fulfilled. The people of God must walk in truth and in knowledge of the redemptive plan of God. we seek to gather the saints to receive oracles from God, and to renew our strength as they pray to seek His kingdom Come and to discover the land of Israel as never before.
You should register and join this amazing movement to be part of the 1 Million pilgrims and pledge the oath of allegiance that you will not Bow to Baal. It is a journey of remembrance that King David shall be restored his throne again in Jerusalem, remember the Lord swore by Himself that he will never lie to David. That David will forever have a successor throughout all generation till Shiloh (Messiah) comes.
This led to the appointment of the prophet Jeremiah with a unique mission to root out the throne from Jerusalem and from Judah and to rebuild the throne on the height of Israel until the number of the 666 th person succeed it and the days be fulfilled as spoken by the prophets. A break of that promise means the collapse of our world. Why because the heaven and this earth were used as the dictum or witnesses for this promise.
Jerusalem shall be the Centre of Government in the appearing of the messiah to rule with the saints for 1000 years until Sovereign God re-establish the new Jerusalem (heaven) and a new earth. Our God shall reign and abode with us in the New Jerusalem after we reign with the Messiah for 1000 years. Then shall the worshipers of Baal and those who have sold their souls for fame and riches be perish forever. Religion will not be a factor nor the Centre of attraction but those that know their God and have not Bow to Baal nor sworn deceitfully.
The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law Deu:29:29
There is a big line between an encounter and revelation. we have journey on the land before but what makes this movement unique is the abundance of revelation to be imparted, the euphoria of been part of a global Revival, the pledge of Allegiance, networking without boundary, Amazing discoveries that could not be find or thought in seminaries.
There is a fund which support NCGIP initiative called, CHRISTIAN PILGRIMAGE FUND, we encourage you to support this program with your donation of any amount through the Christian Pilgrimage fund. We look forward to your support as we journey to seek the lord and pray for our nation and loved ones that we will be committed to bring permanent relief to humanity to accomplish our mandate.
