International gospel music minister and worship leader, Bethany Bola Thani re-emerges from a musical hiatus with the release of her eagerly anticipated single titled “To God Be The Glory.”

Speaking about the new release, Bola said:

And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?” This is a medium to appreciate God for the completion of a big project in my life. Thanking Him for the successful ending of a phase, and the beginning of another glorious one. For all He’s done, all He’s doing, all He’s about to do; I declare loud and clear, TO GOD BE THE GLORY.

“Please join me, from all over the world, to declare His praise. Hallelujah! My desire is to see true worship everywhere, all the time! God is always seeking for worshippers, even now.”

The song was produced by uber-talented music producer, Harrison Eke.

[Album] Faith Over Fear – Leon Remnant || @yaremnant

Leon Remnant has finally released the eagerly anticipated album titled “Faith Over Fear” (F.O.F).

In his words: “Faith Over Fear” is a project God put in my heart for some years now. I’m very transparent in this project by expressing my artistic creativity through the whole project.

“We live in a chaotic world filled with violence, health crisis, anxiety and other socio-economic issues. But this album is aimed at building our hope and faith to trust in God. This album also expresses the story of my life from how I used to struggle before I met Jesus Christ and how my life changed since the day I surrendered my life to God and asked Him to use me for his glory.

“I urge everyone to give the album a listening ear because it’s a project I made for everyone. It’s the F.O.F Season!”

[Music Video] Exalted One – Rev. Aba Quainoo Feat Robert Mensah

Music Minister maestro, Rev. Aba Quainoo who has a vast knowledge and over 20years of experience in making good music, comes off a hiatus with the release of a new sound ‘Exalted One’ featuring super-talented worship minister, Robert Mensah.

The new sound is accompanied by a very beautiful visual which will make your edification more potent.

Exalted One by Rev. Aba Quainoo declares the supremacy of God, His endowed nature, and His superiority over any entity in the universe.  Produced by the prolific Quainoo, Exalted One will capture the heart of any listener, reminiscing about the revelation in Christ will, in turn, bring blessings.

Watch Video Below;

Brief Bio:

Music Minister, Rev Mrs. Aba Quainoo of Royalhouse chapel International, was enormously celebrated for serving its purpose within the 20-year span which was relived at the Glory concert held in Lashibi, off the Spintex road in an ever-growing new branch of Royalhouse Chapel International (COMMUNITY 18 ASSEMBLY).

The outreach concert held on the 19th of March 2021 showcased an array of young gifted men of God, delivering words of encouragement through music, lifting the atmosphere into the realms of the heavens, and inspiring hope within the pandemic.

It was a privilege to have witnessed the composer and author of the song perform her song live in church before her congregants along with a new young sensational duo named the Levites. A song that was written 20 years ago was now enjoying massive promotion.

She thanked God for giving her the talent of writing songs and books, and she was also grateful for how Apostle General, Sam Korankye Ankrah believed in her and launched her first album in March 2000, when nobody knew her.

Rev Mrs Rita Korankye Ankrah has also been a great source of encouragement to her, she said.

Apostle General, Sam Korankye Ankrah is raising great musicians in Royalhouse Chapel worldwide.

Wo kronkron ye ye me fe, which was received from the Holy Spirit, during a Tuesday service at Royalhouse Chapel’s old auditorium at Kokomlemle in year 2000, was one of the songs on her second album titled, “Hwe Ewurade” meaning “Look up to God”, launched in November 2001.

Without any musical background, Rev Aba Quainoo has three albums to her credit, and she is trusting God to release more songs very soon.

I give God the glory she said, God had his own plans for the song and 20 years after the composition of the “wo kron kron y3, y3 mi fe and Exalted One” song, it still lives on and reaches further than human intervention could have had.
