With this, Saddick Adams urged Agradaa to drop her ongoing appeal and view her imprisonment as part of God's plan for her ministry.
He explained that Agradaa should view her imprisonment as a chance to spread the gospel among other inmates at the Nswam Prison and win souls for God.
Saddick Adams then cited the example from the Bible where Jonah was sent to Nineveh to preach the gospel and win souls for God.
"If she is truly a minister of God, then she should preach there and change people. People like Jonah faced tribulations. She should not appeal the decision. If she agrees that she is a woman of God going through tribulations, then she should go there."
"She should accept that and do the will of God. Fifteen years is what God has decided for her to be there."
"Maybe God wants her to repent some people; maybe Nsawam is her Nineveh. If you win even one soul, then it is certain that both of you will go to heaven. If you are appealing this decision, then it shows that you don’t trust the Lord. When you were a traditional priest, you were not jailed".

Details of Agradaa’s jail term
The Founder of Heaven Way Champion International Ministries faced a massive setback after she was sentenced to a 15-year prison sentence by the Accra Circuit Court.
The ruling was given after the outspoken evangelist was found guilty of charlatanic advertisement and defrauding by pretence.
Agradaa, in 2022, grabbed the headlines after she took large sums of money from unsuspecting individuals, claiming to possess spiritual powers capable of doubling money.
Angel Asiamah visits Agradaa in prison
Nana Agradaa’s husband, Angel Asiamah, has, meanwhile, paid a visit to the convicted evangelist at Nsawam Prison on July 19, two weeks after her sentencing.
Speaking to congregants of the Heaven Way Church congregation on Sunday, July 20, Angel Asiamah said his wife remained strong despite her challenging circumstances.
He said Agradaa's message was for the congregation to keep praying for her.
Agradaa's church is not being closed down
Angel Asiamah also denied reports that the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) was planning to shut down the church.
Offering clarity on that matter, he explained that such claims were often being bundled around prior to Nana Agradaa's conviction, all of which were lies.
Asiamah assured the congregation that the church would soldier on even in the absence of its founder.
At the time of writing this report, the video had generated over 2,000 likes and 200 comments
