As the world anticipates Father’s Day celebrations, Prophet Wisdom Aha, General Overseer of Believers Weapon Ministry and Vice President of the Western North Region Development Association, has released a thought-provoking message encouraging a deeper reflection on the true meaning of fatherhood.
In his message titled “Who Is Really a Father?”, the Prophet emphasizes that fatherhood extends far beyond biological connection. He presents the concept of fatherhood as a sacred responsibility grounded in presence, guidance, love, and sacrifice.
The message highlights that while many men are called “fathers” due to their biological role, genuine fatherhood is defined by intentional actions and moral leadership. Prophet Aha identifies a true father as someone who provides not just material support, but also purpose and direction in life. A father’s role, he notes, includes being a dependable foundation, a source of protection, and a guide through life’s complexities.
According to the message, five defining traits characterize a true father: the ability to provide both physical needs and a sense of purpose; the responsibility to protect both body and soul; the importance of leading by example; a commitment to prayer and disciplined leadership; and the willingness to stay, build, uplift, and bless at all costs.
The Prophet further stresses that fatherhood is not limited to those who share a child’s DNA. Any man who embraces the role with love, patience, sacrifice, and faith qualifies as a father in the spiritual and moral sense.
This message comes amid growing concerns about the impact of absentee fathers and weakened family structures. It serves not only as a tribute to fathers but also as a call to action — encouraging men to embody the full weight of their role in shaping strong families and stable societies.
As the global community marks Father’s Day, Prophet Aha’s message seeks to inspire a renewed commitment to responsible and godly fatherhood, recognizing it as one of the most vital and divine roles in any community.
The message concludes with well wishes to all those who have embraced this calling with integrity and love.
