The Wafom Kwan hitmaker Patience Nyarko appears to be deeply concerned about the understated demeanor of gospel performers who are women.
Patience is now stressing her stance on the matter by claiming that the Holy Spirit can even leave such “culprits,” a few months after pleading with her peers not to divert attention from the messages of their songs to their appearances.
The job of every gospel singer, according to Patience Nyarko, who made a submission as a guest on United Showbiz last Saturday, is to spread the gospel; however, it appears that heavy breakup and upscale fashion are taking precedence over this fundamental duty.

Be patient. Nyarko made it clear that while she was not against stylish female gospel performers, she cautioned that they should exercise caution when wearing it, especially when it comes to branding and not stray from their message of proclaiming the gospel.
“Every Gospel musician has something he or she is selling and that is Christ. So anything you do as a gospel musician should not surpass you selling Christ. You can dress alright but don’t let it overshadow your mission of selling Christ through your songs.
“Let me tell you one secret, excessive branding and heavy makeup as a gospel musician can lead to the Holy Spirit stepping aside. For instance, there could be a church with small number of congregation who will seek your services.
“However, because you have branded yourself, you will feel that such a church is below your standard and refuse to perform that but for all you, God wanted you there.
“In the case of makeup, some gospel artistes restrict themselves for the Holy Spirit to use them during a performance because they don’t want to sweat and get their makeup cleaned.
“They will do everything including being stiff on stage, thereby restricting the holy spirit from having its way at such a moment,” she said.
