With the Bbiblical admonition to mankind to be weary of his kingsmen as they are his very enemies (Mathew 10:36) and her emphasis of same, little did Rev. Dr. Prophetess Mercedes Osei Frema, Leader and Founder of Heaven Visa International Chapel (HEVIC) know that this admonition would come nigh her.
In the event of the unexpected however, this admonition has not only come knocking at her door, but has also entered her bedroom, rendering her, irrepairable damage, but for the grace of God!
Popularly known as “Susumu Lawyer” prophetess Mercedes’ husband Kwabena Donkor, a native of Abura and Nyamoransa is alleged to have poisoned or “Jujued” her rendering her paralysed for well over ten (10) months before God finally intervened.
This came to light during an elaborate thanksgiving service organized by the Prophetess in the auditorium of the Church at Ayawaso in the Ga North Metropolise in the Greater Accra Region last Sunday, October 23, 2022.
The Resurrection
Dubbed “The Resurrection”, it had the preamble, “The Resurrection of Prophetess Mercedes Osei Frema from the plot and plans of the enemy which resulted in a sickness and disability. It was later revealed that the paralysis was imposed by the enemy through a loved one (Mathew 10:36). This is a great testimony as Prophetess Mercedes did not die upon suffering all the spiritual and physical attacks for a protracted period of time. God is good!
Savior, Save Thyself
As it was said to Jesus while on the cross by one of the sinners crucified alongside with Him, “If you are the savior, save they self and us, “tongues started waggling when the outstanding Prophetess went through this predicaments.
Who has wrecked so many miracles and wonders, relieving many out from their shackles and.
I Foresaw It
Narrating her ordeal with pain, the seemingly peeved Prophetess recounted how she foresaw this predicament about seven years ago that in a dream, her husband’s father had advised him (Donkor) to suffocate her (Mercedes) with a pillow to death.
The worried Prophetess stated that when she told her husband and Prophet Newman about the dream, they all wrote down the date with her husband claiming that this will never come to pass, apparently diverting attention from the vision or dream.
My Kindness Has Led Me This Far
With a heavy heart, the Prophetess Susumu Lawyer bemoaned how kindness had led her this far. According to her, it all started when in November, 2019 she visited the home town of her husband. She indicated that as a loving wife, giving honour and glory to the husband, she gave various forms of packages and money to all deserving people around the husband’s family and general townsmen.
Demand Galore
Prophetess Mercedes pointed out that no sooner has she returned to Accra, than various forms of demands emanated from the husband’s family – father, brothers, sisters, name it. These demands she mentioned, ranged from cash through cars to lands. But these, she said were too much for her to bear. So when she could not meet them, (demands) they schemed, planned and plotted against her with the husband playing the devil’s advocate.
Husband Initiates Skirmishes
According to the embittered Prophetess her husband who has capitalized on her hard work, has failed to live up to expectation as husband; even to the extent of pilfering money from her room. Then about two years ago, he started skirmishing about maligning her to people that Susum Lawyer is a fraudster, who has used juju to snatch his church from him. And that sooner than later the gods she has resorted to will crush her; knowing very well the skirmishes he was undertaking.
Meanwhile he had rather resorted to juju men via “Agbalagba”, the sprinkling of juju in the bedroom, bathroom and into her shoes but to no avail because of the divine protection around her. “When I am going to church I would ask him the type of sandals/shoes I should put on. Then he would choose a “jujued” one for me, but that didn’t work! “She exclaimed”
Insults Did the Trick
According to Prophetess Mercedes, with two years intensive skirmishes of room, food, drinks “jujuing and poisoning” yielding no results, he was advised by his juju man from whom he obtained snake venom (ɔwɔ se) to get drunk one day and insult her, and when she insults him back the juju will work. This is because the divine protection around her is making the juju unworkable.
“So one fine evening, he came home quite drunk, and without provocation started raining insults and abuses on me beyond control. I lost my temper and I also insulted him back and that did the trick”. She said attracting laughter.
Paralysis Begins
Prophetess Mercedes stated that with this, he “jujued” a shoe with the snake venom and it worked to perfection. According to her, she stated feeling pains in the legs, but felt it was as a result of long standing. As a result, she started visiting the gym, but things worsened and she finally got paralyzed from December 2021 to September, 2022 before God came in. In the process, her feet got swollen, darkened and her soles spotted with sores amidst severe, hurtful pains. She then had to be carried about in all her undertaking.

I Never Attended Hospital
Prophetess Mercedes Osei Ferma hinted that in all these excruciating and trying moments, she never attended hospital for medication because of the covenants she has with God. She stated that if the God she serves has saved her from this predicament, it beholds on her to thank Him, hence this programme. Celebrating with her included Obaapa Christy and Lucky Mensah, who treated participants to melodius tunes with Prophetess Mercedes Osei Frema, not only doing the backing but also dancing profusely to the Glory of God. Also in attendance was Elder Mireku.
