No one is a star but Jesus – Francis Amo warns against ‘Luciferian’ pride

Francis Amo has explained why he is open to interacting with secular musicians, and speaking and dressing in ways deemed unconventional for a Gospel singer.
“The Bible says there’s time for everything, including unique times for laughter, crying, and grieving. So when it is befitting for you to laugh with people, you must do just that,” the praise leader famous for his energetic dancing and comic personality said.
He noted how crucial humility was and how dangerous self-righteousness was, too.
Speaking to Prince Benjamin (PB) on Accra 100.5 FM’s Entertainment Capital, Francis Amo shared his conviction “no one is a star except Jesus Christ in whom we believe.
“We read in scripture that he had a star which led people to his home. Meanwhile, you and I were born where it is mostly starless.”
Amo cautioned creatives, especially in Gospel, to “be careful” with the hubris that comes with considering themselves as stars, which could lead them to belittle others while overestimating their own importance.
“If you want to be powerful, and attract all kinds of people, making them feel at home and respected, around you, you need to relax and come down. Remember your humble beginnings,” he admonished, highlighting consumers of art were invaluable kingmakers, who had to be respected.
He underlined stardom needed a huge amount of “caution,” without which “a lot of so called stars have fallen off, some are suffering in isolation.
“But God, by his grace, has also opened this page for some us and we must learn from the predecessors, noting that when you talk and interact with people, you must mind your language and attitude.”
In Christian belief, Lucifer, once a beautiful morning star, was cast down into darkness once he entertained an ambition to rival and supplant God.
Francis Amo’s latest project, Ahummoboro (Mercy), celebrates Gospel and Highlife music. Spanning an hour, the tape packs seven songs, with a Peter King being the sole collaborator. Hear the title track below.
