Popular highlife artiste, now Evangelist Papa Shee, has opened up about some of the trails he had to face in life.

According to the ‘Koyon So’ singer, he went through trials for 10 years.

Papa Shee further stated that he struggled for years before accepting the call of God.

This he explained was because he was at the peak of his career when God beckoned.

“After the ‘Atadwe,’ ‘Koyon So’ then ‘East Coast’ album, I left to the United States to

try to promote my songs and I was running away from my calling.

I was a churchgoer so when I go to some of the churches, some good pastors told me I had the call but I didn’t want to hear that,” he said.

Papa Shee also disclosed that he had to disembark from a flight because God revealed to him,

it will clash should he embark on the journey.

He narrated to Joy News’ MzGee how he eventually surrendered to the Lord.

“We had a show in London, myself, Reggie, Nana Quame, Obrafour, Tic Tac and

VIP but the Lord opened my eyes at Kotoka International Airport to get down from

the plane otherwise the plane will crash…so I said Lord reveal yourself to me and

the Lord opened my eyes and I got out of the plane,” the former highlife musician said.

He conceded that the journey has not been rosy. He added that he had endured rejection,

mockery and persecution.

“If you go in physically you will run because it is not easy, your fan will feel disappointed and the believers, they don’t trust you,” he said.

“I have been into the wilderness for 10 years. Wilderness means you are going through trials, I was preaching, doing evangelism but I was still in the wilderness.”

“Falling doesn’t mean you’ve sin but sometimes doubting God, you may say is that the same Lord who revealed himself to me, Lord, where are you that everybody has abandoned me, Lord where are you that nobody loves me as they used to say?,” he added.

Highlife-artist-turned-evangelist, Papa Shee, has admonished Christians to show musician

Ofori Amponsah love instead of condemning him over his recent decisions in life.

Papa Shee is however  blaming Christians for the predicament of Ofori Amponsah.

According to Evangelist, Ofori Ampnsah would have been saved if Christians had

prayed for him when he backslide.

Ofori Amponsah, in July 2012, quit secular music to pursue a full-time ministry of

God after he announced that he had received a calling from God.

He further banned all radio stations from playing his songs, explaining that it will pull

more souls for the devil but years later, he made a U-turn by releasing a song titled ‘Alewa’.

When quizzed by the media, Ofori Amponsah said returning to his first love [music] will not affect his work as a pastor.

However, he received lots of backlashes by many for joking with the work of God. Some of the critics concluded that he became a self-styled pastor just to make money.

Commenting on the issue on Adom FM’s mid-morning show, Work and Happiness, however, Papa Shee said Ofori Amponsah was not to blame for his action.

“The devil has work for idle hands so when Christians rejected Ofori Amponsah, the devil came for him,” he opined.

Citing himself as an example, the ‘Koyon So’ hitmaker said he nearly gave up on God when

he started but had support from his church and family.

“You cannot serve two masters; it is impossible. If our brother has turned to the world, we must pray for him and not condemn him. It’s not easy to be a Christian; even Jesus Christ was tempted“.

This notwithstanding, Papa Shee said Ofori Amponsah must return to Christ if truly he has

the calling of God.

“As a Christian, you will go to the wilderness but you should be able to stand. Jesus was able to defeat the devil,” he added
