Dr Richard Oswald Commey (Dip.Ed, B.ENG, MIET, BA, MA, M.Div, PhD)

Dr Commey was born in 1960 into a middle class family in Ghana. His parents were religious, and as such they attended church regularly, but he did not know the Lord in any meaningful way. He had an encounter with the risen Lord at the age of fourteen when he was caught up to heaven. He saw the glory of heaven and spoke to Jesus. He realized after this vision that there was a special call on his life. He gave his life to Christ fully in 1980. As soon as he received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on Christmas day of the same year, he began to experience remarkable manifestations of the revelation gifts.

The Lord spoke to him and said he had been called as a prophet to the nations. After utilizing the prophetic gifts within the space of fifteen years, during which he studied and earned degrees in Electrical Engineering, he entered the prophetic office full time in 1995. He has stood in the prophetic and teaching offices full time since then.

He has traveled extensively to various nations holding prophetic conferences in many churches. He has been called as a 'Samuel' in his generation to build and head a prophetic company. The ministry’s name is therefore called 'Ramah', the prophetic base and hometown of Samuel the prophet. In preparation for this assignment he studied and earned a bachelors, masters, and doctorate in Bible and Theology. He specialized in the exegetical study of the Old Testament prophetic texts at the masters and doctoral levels.

 His primary assignment is to raise and mentor leaders generally and prophetic leaders specifically. By the vision of Ramah prophetic ministries, he is to teach on the subject of prophecy and prophets, demonstrate the prophetic gifting and activate prophetic ministries. As the center of gravity of the entire ministerial enterprise has to do with Christian education, the Lord instructed that a leadership training institute be established. This divine mandate has given birth to Ramah Bible College. The college offers excellent theological education in harmony with spiritual training, which ensures excellence in ministry.

Dr Commey is married to Babsi, a gifted prophetic singer who supports him in the ministry and oversees the local church in his absence. They have three children.
