Ghana the Door of No Return Transformed into a Spiritual Gateway to New Beginnings

Door of No Return at Elmina Castle in Cape Coast, Ghana

What is the trending topic all around the World that is on everyone's bucket-list? None other than visiting the bountiful and historical country of Ghana. This country is filled with vibrant people numbering in the millions and is steadily growing. Ghana sits peacefully at the coast of the Atlantic Ocean nestled between other beautiful West African countries. But, what set's it apart from the rest? Let's dig in and find out interesting facts about why Ghana is the number one choice for those that are the descendants of enslaved peoples' scattered across the globe for repatriation.

Excitingly, these words are not just rumors, but are statistical facts. Ghana is the top country for 'blacks' around the World to travel to. People are literally hopping on planes left and right to get a piece of the rich country of Ghana. In November of 2024, 524 descendants of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade were awarded citizenship to the country. This record breaking move made headlines and is a significant way forward for those that are deserving of a place to truly call home. Instead of places where oppression is at the forefront of everyday levity. What is drawing people to this country is not only the top-of-the-line Jollof Rice, but its connection to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade that encompassed and unfortunately changed the trajectory for the lives of the many souls that were captured.

Thus during the early 1500s and 1600s, many peoples were taken from West Africa, some escaped and some were able to avoid the capture. Meaning, there are still Yisraelites' in Ghana during this day and time. Though they may not be aware of who or where they descend from as did all who put to sleep according to Yeshe'yahu 29:10 (Isa.), the curses fit the people of this land just as well as Yisraelites' in other parts of the World. After-all, YHWH stated in Devareim 28:64 (Deut.), "And YEHOWAH shall scatter thee among all people, from one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known,..." So, there is still a remnant and a connection to the lands of Ghana that are deeply rooted in The Holy Scriptures.

Unfortunately, there has been an excess of misinformation brewing against the people that not only live in Ghana or on the Continent, but those that are in America as well. Diaspora Wars have left our people divided and allowing destruction with any chance at truly reuniting with our brothers and sisters on the Continent. Also, many are now seeking to repatriate into the places and countries that do not house the majority of our peoples'. Ghana is a piece of the puzzle that the Continent of Africa encompasses, but its relativity to the descendants of slaves surely surpasses the efforts of its neighboring countries. Like, for instance, did you know that Ghana is an English speaking country? Communication is very important for everyday life outside of America. Could it be that YHWH has had HIS hands there all along to make it easier for our return in the future? Maybe so.

Whereas, many have decided to repatriate into other countries, which is not a big deal, but in the future it can become a bit of an issue. Instability and language barriers can pose a risk in other countries and with the current climate of Bavel, access to what was so easily attained before can become much harder to maintain. Ghana launched the 'Year of Return' in 2015 and has continued on its 10 year effort to make the transition to the country easier for those that are returning. Ghana is fully acknowledging the closeness of our peoples' while also fulfilling the much needed effort at apologizing for their role in participating in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. There is no other country on this Earth that has acknowledged the atrocities of human enslavement of such calibers and no other country has made a conscious effort in healing the wounds that this has caused, besides Ghana.

Nevertheless, what our ancestors saw while they were leaving was a small door leading to the Atlantic Ocean, thinking they'd never return. Now, what their descendants see today is the much anticipated effort at a grand return to the East. Ghana was the doorway out and spiritually it must be the doorway in. This country has many inhabitants that are aware of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and resonate deeply with this historical aspect that took place nearly 600 years ago. In Ghana, many will find the residue of Yisraelite heritage throughout; from the Hebrew Writings on the bridge structure in Accra, which is the countries capital, as well as the similar tongues of Twi and Hebrew intertwined together. Therefore proving a true connection to the Yisraelite presence in Ghana as opposed to other African countries.

Undoubtedly, Ghana is an integral part of a spiritual gratification connecting us beyond slavery and creating a new place for the Children of Yisrael to live and have peace amongst one another. The deeply spiritual connection and welcoming souls of the Ghanaian people is the true recipe for success for those that wish to come into the Continent and reintegrate into our historical society. There are many countries in Africa, but we trust that Ghana is the best option for safety, security, and longevity. Allow the 'Doorway out of the East to become the Doorway in' and repatriate successfully.

Wishing you success on your spiritual journey as always,
