Founder of Parliament Chapel International, Apostle Francis Amoako Attah, says the death of Pope Francis was not a surprise to the spiritually discerning, claiming he had prophetically foreseen the event weeks before it occurred.
Speaking on *Angel FM* today, the renowned preacher referenced past comments he made ahead of Easter, urging Ghanaians to avoid wearing black on Palm Sunday—a day he described as spiritually symbolic. “I said it before. People in Ghana don’t take time to seek answers but are quick to dismiss what they don’t understand,” he stated.
According to Apostle Amoako Attah, the red and white attire he encouraged on Palm Sunday reflected the colors of the cardinals—those tasked with electing a new pope. “From that time, the Pope was already gone,” he declared, linking the event to divine signs and scriptural revelations.
He connected Pope Francis’ final days to spiritual prophecy, stating that the pontiff had intentionally left the hospital earlier this year to “show himself to the world” one last time before his death. “He didn’t want to die in the hospital. He wanted to return and bless the people who had once blessed him,” he said.
Citing Revelation 6:7-8, Apostle Amoako interpreted the “pale horse” in scripture as a prophetic symbol tied to Italy—the Pope’s home. “Green, white, and red—the colours of Italy’s flag—represent the pale horse in prophecy. The angel of death began his journey from Italy,” he said.
He also suggested that the timing of Pope Francis’ death creates a divine opening for Ghana. He pointed to Cardinal Peter Turkson, a Ghanaian and former head of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, as a prophetic contender for the papacy. “He is 76, just like Pope Francis when he was chosen. The heavens are open over Ghana,” he declared.
Apostle Amoako further warned Ghanaians to be spiritually vigilant in the coming days. “From now, always wear a touch of red when stepping out. On April 30th, all the witches and wizards in the world will gather—do not wear black,” he warned, urging people to remain alert during what he described as a spiritually charged season.
He concluded with a call for individuals to seek their “destiny helpers,” referencing the varying gospel accounts of angels at Jesus’ tomb to illustrate that everyone needs someone to help them fulfill their divine purpose.
