Team Manager Sabahn Quaye Pleads For Patience For Hearts

Accra Hearts of Oak Team Manager, Nii Sabahn Quaye has implored the supporters of the club to exercise restraint in the on-going Ghana Premier League season season.


The supporters of the club were highly incensed with officiating in the team’s 1-3 defeat by All Stars at home last Sunday.


Although they rallied around the team when they clawed a goal back in the second half, it was not enough as the Phobians fell to a first defeat of the season.


“I am pleading to our supporters to have patience for the team,” Sabahn told the club’s official newspaper, the HEARTS NEWS.“All the noise coming up now is only putting pressure on the boys.


“We intended lying slowly for people not to see what we are doing [on the field of play]; we want to play the games as such.


“The fans should exercise patience for us; we know how to tackle the games; and we will do so one after the other,” he said.


The reaction of the supporters means the team will be playing a number of home matches away from home; an action Sabahn feels will affect the team financially. But the Hearts Team Manager has urged the fans to exercise restraint.


“We are not thinking about the ban but definitely, financially, it will go against us. Our matches have been put into the system since we started and so if the ban comes, it will affect us financially and the players psychologically and that is why I am pleading to the supporters to exercise restraint,” he added.

Growing in the Grocery Store : Gloria Copeland

You see, you don’t have to wait for a major trial to hit before you let patience have her perfect work. You can practice patience in those small but irritating situations you encounter every day.


I ran into one such situation just the other day in the grocery store. I was in a hurry when I went to check out so I chose the express line. There were only a couple of people in it and they just had a few items to buy so I didn’t think it would take long.

But that clerk was so slow! As my frustration mounted I thought, They ought to put a sign here that says Slow Motion Line!

What was that? An opportunity to exercise patience.

Such opportunities are important because when you exercise patience, it grows. If you’ll use it in small things, it will be strong enough to handle the bigger things when they come along. Every fruit of the Spirit increases in you as you exercise it.


Remember that the next time some little aggravation is about to make you lose your temper. Instead of saying, “I’ve had it,” say, “No, in Jesus’ Name, I choose to yield to the force of patience God has put within me. I believe I’ll just count this slow grocery store line to be a joy and use it as an opportunity to grow!”

Count It All What? - Gloria Copeland

It’s only fair to warn you that patience is not always as easy as it may sound because patience is developed during tests and trials. You need it most when you want it least. Let’s look  at what James has to say about it: “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing” (James 1:2-4).


Usually, when you’re in the midst of a trial, the last thing you feel like doing is counting it all joy. Naturally speaking, you’re not in the mood to jump and sing and rejoice over this opportunity to develop patience. But the truth is, you should. Why? Because if you’ll let patience have her perfect work, you’ll be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. Think about what that means! It means that if you’re battling illness and you let patience have her perfect work, you’ll end up in perfect health. If you’re in financial trouble, you’ll end up with all your needs perfectly met. It means you’ll end up with whatever the Word of God has promised you!


Hebrews 10 confirms that. Addressing a group of people who had been through an extremely fiery trial, it says:


Call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions; Partly, whilst ye were made a gazing-stock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used. For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance. Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise (verses 32-36).


Read that last verse again: “Ye have need of patience, that…ye might receive the promise.”


You might as well know right now that if you want to enjoy the health, deliverance and prosperity God has promised you, you’ll have to let patience work. You’ll have to believe God when it’s hard to do. You’ll have to keep walking in faith when your flesh just wants to quit. That may sound negative, but it’s not. It’s just the truth. And if you know that truth, you can prepare yourself in advance for those hard times by deciding that when they come, you won’t give up.


You can train yourself for victory by starting right now to develop the force of patience you’ll need to make it through when the going gets tough.

Well Worth the Wait - Gloria Copeland

The pressure is on.


You have prayed the prayer of faith. You believe you have received the answer. You are confessing the Word. You are standing on God’s promise. You are expecting a miracle. But instead of getting better—things seem to get worse. Symptoms and circumstances pile up around you. Every time you turn around, some demon is whining in your ear: Why don’t you just give up? This faith stuff doesn’t work. God doesn’t even care about you.


 


Soon all you can think about is how tired you are, how fed up you are with waiting for your answer to come. You have had it with this situation and unless something changes, you’re about to say the two words that cost more believers their victory than anything else in the world: I quit!


Sound familiar?


Sure it does. Everyone who ever walked by faith has gone through times like that. Tough times. Times when you feel like you can’t take any more. Maybe those times have tripped you up in the past. Maybe the devil has used them to pressure you into letting go of your faith. But I want you to know something today. That never has to happen again because you’re about to learn how to release a force so powerful it can carry you through those hard times in triumph.


It is a force so dynamic the devil cannot stop it. It is a force that comes from the heart and character of God Himself and it will take you from here to victory…every time.







What is this magnificent force? The force of patience.

Kenichi must be given time - Coach Sunday

Veteran coach Ibrahim Sunday, has called on supporters of Accra Hearts of Oak to have patience on their newly appointed head coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi.


“Fooball fans are not patient. They want instant results and so they hardly give coaches enough time to build a winsome team.


“When it comes to big teams like Accra Hearts of Oak, then it becomes much more dificult for new coaches, but i think Kenichi is entirely new to the system and deserves some.” He said in an interview.

“This is a coach who is new to the system and did not take part in the recruitment of players and so must be given time to work. It will be too early to pass any judgement.

“When i joined Africa Sports, i told them to have patience on me if i am unable to perform in the first year. After that i managed to build the team and won West Africa Football Union (WAFU) and later the Club Championship and Super Cup.


“Hearts fans must be give him the chance to build the team.” He stated.


Newly appointed head coach of Hearts has been having difficult times in the pre-match losing 4-1 to West Africa Football Academy (WAFA), and lost 5-0 on aggregate to Libyan side in an international friendly.
