"Ghanaians should step-up in the days ahead expecting nothing but victory all the way if we do God's will," he said.
Rev Jones said the essence of the period in the life of a Christian was that it showed what the power of God and said "Ghanaians should believe that under the canopy of his protection the country's problems would be solved and the gates of progress would be wild open and victory will be ours".
He charged the people to work hard, be patriotic and nationalistic for the country to maintain its position as the shinning star of Africa to fulfil the aspirations of Ghana's founding fathers.
"At 48 Ghana should move forward," Rev Jones stated and said "With God as the rock of the nation Ghana shall never fall and shall see progress since the country has a rock, a refuge and a dependable defender".
