PREACHED AT THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD ONITSHA BY APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN ON 12TH JANUARY 2020

YOU HAVE NOT VOWED ANYTHING, UNTIL YOU HAVE VOWED YOUR LIFE. I SAID, “YOU HAVE NOT VOWED ANYTHING UNLESS YOU HAVE VOWED YOUR LIVES.” That is why, in the New Testament, nobody paid tithe. They were giving to God as they purposed in their hearts. They were giving to God as God prospered them. They first gave themselves. No regulation. You are on your own. I am on

My own. The first vow is yourself, loving the LORD your God with all your life, all your strength, all you are made up of. When you have surrendered fully, submitted yourself to God fully, is there any other thing left? Is there any other thing left? That thing which you think you own, it is God that owns it. Is it not true?

OFFER WILLINGLY AND JOYOUSLY

If you know that God loves you, shout Halleluiah! If you know why God loves you, shout Halleluiah!

1.            The day you find out why God loves you, then you are the greatest enemy of enemy of God. Listen to Me. I am not playing.

2.            Any human being that finds out what he did for God to love him, he is the greatest enemy of God. Because the Bible said, “When we were yet sinners, He died for us. He loved us. If we love Him, He first loved us”.

3.            We are reciprocating love which we do not merit. What you are enjoying is unmerited favour. Then how can you now tell Me you know why God loves you?

4.            Song: He loves me, I cannot say why.

5.            Can you imagine a righteous man dying because of sinners for offenses he never committed, that his friends might live, and you want to tell Me you know why He loves you? Are you not stupid? Tell Me what you did.

6.            It then means those that are in Love of God here are still in the minority, from your responses. So I am justified. I personally decided to throw the question to all of you and you answered from the bottom of your heart. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth spoke to Me.

7.            And I now know that you are depending on your own self-righteousness which He discounted and you knew it not. He does not need your self-righteousness, keep it to yourself. “I am righteous, I am innocent”, keep it to yourself, not before God.

8.            Who are you? Mere maggot. A man that was conceived in iniquity, shaped in iniquity, born in iniquity; came into the world, mingling with people, joining them in speaking lies. And then you want to tell Me that something is good in you.

9.            Tell Me what you did that made God to love you. Let me go back to My Throne for I do not want to stay long here today. The spirit is willing, the flesh is willing but something in Me is speaking otherwise.

10.         Let Me first of all acknowledge this wonderful gift, not because of the price or the quantity or the value. Yes! Can somebody open with Me to the bible. Let Me acknowledge with the Scriptures.

11.         1st Chronicles 29: 17-18 that is what I am using to acknowledge this gift. Three translations, LB “I know my God, that you test men…” I know what? “My God, that you test men…” I know my God that you test men’s heart. Good. 

12.          “I know my God that you test men to see if they are good, for you enjoy good men…” You enjoy good men, but bad people are abomination before You. You abhor them; bad men, bad women. Once you are bad in the sight of God, you are really bad.

13.         “I have done all these with good motive…” I have done all these with good motive.  “And I have watched your people offer their gift willingly and joyously…”Amen.

14.         They offered their gifts to God willingly and joyously. Will they throw it in the air? There must be somebody standing in the stead of Almighty God who will collect those gifts from generous givers. Generous givers!

15.         You cannot bring your gift and hang it in the field; you must deposit it at somebody’s feel who collects it in the stead of Almighty God and that is the One who will forgive your sins and trespasses in the stead of God.

16.         Once He sets you free, you are free, for He is not acting alone; the Elohim is in Him to welcome the gift and to reject the gift. Often times, He will tell the vessel, “Do not acknowledge the gift, do not receive it for the heart is impure”.

17.         If Cain’s offering was right, if the heart was right, God said He would have received it. By quantity, by value, what Cain offered was by far greater than what Abel presented, a lamb, but this man presented the best fruit of the land being a farmer. When valued, it was by far greater than that of Abel but God accepted it not on the basis of the quantity or value but on the basis of Abel’s heart. You will hear Abel again today.

18.         “I have watched your people offer their gift willingly and joyously, Oh Lord God of our fathers…”Not grumbling, not grudging, not by compulsion; willingly and joyously; rejoicing and dancing that God received his gift.

19.         Rejoice that you offered and God received, for there are some that offered and God rejected, while there are some that want to offer but do not have.

20.         The little you have is what you gave and God accepted it because your heart is clean. You came with joy, you came with faith, your heart is full of joy. Not because the pastor is going from house to house or calling you on phone telling you how important it is,

21.         “I have watched your people offer their gift willingly and joyously. Oh Lord God of our fathers; Abraham, Isaac and Israel. Make your people always want to obey you”.  

22.         KJV – “I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart…” That thou did what? Triest the heart. “…and hast pleasure in uprightness”. You have pleasure in uprightness, not in crooked ways.

23.         People with crooked hearts, crooked minds, perverted minds and perverted hearts, God does not delight in their offering. He rejects them, He rejects their offering.

24.         “As for me, in the uprightness of my heart…” In the uprightness of my own heart. Yes? “I have willingly offered all these things…” Oh no! “And now, I have seen with joy thy people which are present here…” Thank you. “To offer willingly unto Thee”.  “Oh Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and of Israel, our fathers, keep this forever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee”.

25.         GNB – “I know that you test everyone’s heart…” I know that You test everyone’s heart. Yes? “And you are pleased with people of integrity…”

26.         You are very much pleased with people of integrity, people that are known for keeping their words, keeping their covenant, not known for eye service. Men and women of their words, men of integrity, women of integrity.

27.         You are nothing but your words. A human being that can never honour his words is a fool, not worthy to exist.

28.         “In honesty and sincerity, I have willingly given all these to you, and I have seen how your people who are gathered here have been happy to bring offerings to you”. They have gathered there and they will be happy to make offerings to God. Not everybody, not everybody. 

29.         “Lord God of our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, keep such devotion forever strong in your people’s hearts…” Amen! Keep such devotion ever strong in your people’s hearts.

30.         They know where duty calls and they respond. They do not go from house to house advertising it, neither do they go to your husbands or wives to confide, negotiate and confirm before they come to the Lord.

31.         That is why a good number of you are wasting your time. This is 2020. If I fool you, may God fool Me. Many of you are wasting your time and you have been wasting your time all these years.

32.         My nuclear family has been having it hot. Beginning from the month of October till now, they are restless, because I am rounding off everything with My family.

33.         I have finished with all of you. But I do not want anybody to get lost in My family. I know many of you are lost already. I know that. Those who were with Me last night, did you not hear My voice? Am I pleading for anything?

34.         Withhold whatever you want, do not give Me anything. If I say you are lost, you are lost; because I have given you ample opportunity to amend your ways.

35.         I have loved you, I have given you everything. I have even done something I should not have done, to make sure you are saved. But at the end of the day, many of you have taken it for granted.

36.         Some think maybe I have another motive. May God punish Me if I do anything out of impure motive. I have done everything with godly sincerity, intending to show you the hardest love, that you might be saved.

37.         Do not read further. Whoever that presented this thing to God through the Son of Man, who is standing in the stead of God, Apostle Peter Odoemena, confirmed, vindicated, before many witnesses, acknowledged by every elect of God worldwide, let Me say it, heaven is open to you 24 hours.

38.         And I want to hand this thing over to no other person but the Youth President. Use it for the service of God.

39.         There is no way God will not reward your good deeds which you did out of your own volition, conferring with your God and your God alone without going from house to house, to campaign, to ask questions.

40.         How can you give Me something and you begin to ask Me what I need, do u need this and that? You go to your brother, “This is what I want to give the Son of Man, I do not know whether He will…”

41.         Keep your mouth shut. Why not give it and go your way? The Son of Man can give it to somebody else. If I do not need it, somebody needs it. Will you give Me that thing and tell Me how to use it? I can give it to somebody else.

42.         The most important thing is, “Has He accepted it?” Even the food I am eating, often times I create room for others, “My friend, I have taken the much I want. Come and carry my plate, take everything”.

A DAY IS COMING AND NOW IS THAT DAY WHEN THE DEAD WILL BE PREFERRED TO THE LIVING. WHEN PEOPLE WILL BE SAYING THAT IF THEY HAD DIED BEFORE NOW, THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER SO THAT THEY WOULD HAVE, AT LEAST, RECEIVED A BEFITTING BURIAL. NOTE TWO AREAS. [1] THE RED DEATH: PEOPLE THAT WILL DIE THROUGH VIOLENCE. [2] THE WHITE DEATH: PEOPLE THAT WILL DIE THROUGH NATURAL DISASTERS, SICKNESSES, DISEASES AND PESTILENCES. AND ONCE IT SETS IN THIS YEAR, IT WILL NEVER STOP AGAIN UNTIL THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH ARE REDUCED TO ONE-THIRD [1/3].

EVENTS ARE MADE CLEAR

BY PROPHECIES

Give Me audience here, I do not want to stay longer. If you hate Me, it is to your own peril. You love Me and it is not the Love of God, you are loving Me for something else, you are lost.

2.            If you love Me, I must know why you love Me, You are milling around Me, you are coming to Me, I must know why. Even if I do not ask you questions, I must know why.

3.            You do not need a prophet to tell you that from the look of things right from 26th of last month, the Son of Man has been existing alone.

4.            He has distanced Himself away from every living being; even from His wife, from His family.

5.            If you do not watch the Son of Man spiritually, you are doomed. You need to know that somebody is behind what is happening now.

6.            I told you, I am the One that will stir up the trouble and once I stir it up I will make sure I engineer it. I will direct it the way it will go to achieve My purpose and in the end, what I will leave behind will be three-quarters of the inhabitants of the earth, Did I say so? Yes sir.

7.            You heard it with your ears, and you think I am crazy. And I made it clear, everything that piled all these while, I will test all this 2020. 2020! And I will make sure I get to the climax.

8.            On the 3rd of January 2020, I ignited it and look at the way it is spreading. Go to 2019 New Year message, I told you the judgement will visit many countries in different forms, I told you the death people will pass through both white death, red death and so on. And I interpreted it all.

9.            Are they not with you? Are you not seeing them? I told you that Sunday, “Nigeria should get ready, you are not exempted”. Today, have you seen it? How many warships? How many war lorries that came into Nigeria yesterday from Chad? Over 50, heavily loaded with arms and ammunitions, personnel, entered Nigeria yesterday.

10.         Can you not see movement of vehicles and so on in Nigeria from neighboring countries? Why? The closest to Nigeria is Chad and Niger. Nigeria having been labeled a terrorist country, 12 dozens of missiles sent by America against Nigeria for they were threatening against America to the point of burning of American National flag in Abuja.

11.         What do you want to see again? Kaduna, Kano and everywhere, do you know where the missiles will land? They said, they are not only attacking the military base, they are also attacking the economy and they know where the economy is.

12.         Nigeria is a non-propelled economy. True or false? Do we have anything that is propelling us if not one source? When that one source is destroyed, what is the hope of this nation? What is our military right? What is the strength of our military?

13.         Do not worry, I am here. And they know that I am here. And I told you nothing will happen until He that should come in the scene appears on the scene.

14.         You will never hear any sermon from me again. I will read scriptures, go home, have My rest. If you want to blame, blame your Ministers, blame your Deacons, your Bishops, your Elders, Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists, Apostles and Prophets. Blame all.

15.         I told you 2020 is not a preaching year. It is a year you must sit down, watch and wait, see events as they unfold. Have they started? Are you not seeing?

16.         Most of you that tuned in your radio this morning, did you hear what happened this morning, early hours? Something happened this early hours missiles rained like water in many countries including Afghanistan, Kuwait and so on.

17.         It is a time where you can receive visitation from anywhere, I say visitation from anywhere. If Libya is on fire, is Libya not Africa? And you know that Libya is on fire, the cease-fire proposed by Russia yesterday failed.

18.         “America get away from Iran”, they said No. The bill was passed, they said No, and then came up with sanctions. Then why must Iran bomb Israel yesterday?

19.         You are rejoicing because God gave you this opportunity to mill around the Son of Man who is your refuge. But I am dropping many, I am dropping many.

20.         I do not care who you are, God does not have any favorites. He treats everybody on equal basis. Let me go back to my speech. I am vacating; I am going on vacation.

21.         Ancient men and women, do you know this tune? Do you know this tune? I am taking my vacation in heaven. I go back to Him and to my home. Amen!

Nothing is sustaining you. You have no personal testimony. You may call Him, “My Lord and personal Savior.” That is not true. You are only giving Him a title. You are not a partaker of that salvation. He is not yet your Lord and personal Savior, until you have had your own definite experience that will get you convinced and certain.

WHAT DO YOU WANT GOD TO CALL YOU. VOL1 PREACHED ON SUNDAY, 6TH OCTOBER 2019

KNOWLEDGE vs EXPERIENCE

I want all the Ministers, especially the Apostles, to take note of the scriptures I will read. 2020, no Minister should come to this pulpit to share knowledge. All must come here to share experience.

2.            That was why I stepped Pastor Thomas down. His Elders have been with Me and they know what I am saying. I have been warning him, I love him, he is working with Me.

3.            I told him clearly, “Your wife and your children will enter the paradise before you”. Elders, true or false? Once or twice? Almost everyday.

4.             That the trouble in his house has always been around Pastor Thomas is hard to believe. Only members of his family can say yes or no; and then ministers who are always with me and pastor Thomas.

5.            I do not want knowledge just like IK Obasanya heard the message, went to the Pastor, “Can you please look for the Book of Enoch, I want to have it so that I will prepare a teaching for the church”.

6.            Are we telling you that we need your knowledge? You read and come and tell us, is that what we need? Brethren is that why we are here? Read, come and tell us. Did we tell you we do not understand?

7.            We want your experience, we do not want your knowledge. Your knowledge is sending you to hell but experience will send you to paradise.

8.            It is better you have experience first, so that you have something to tell people around you, “Look at the reason why I am believing, why I am dying. Look at how I proved this Faith”.

9.            Not proving this faith through letters. If through the letters of the Bible, you proved the Faith, you are lost. The letter must be translated into the spirit, then you prove what is happening in you, everything around you, dovetailing with the letter, then you know you are there with God.

10.         The rock that the builders rejected may at the end become the chief cornerstone of the building. Was it not Mary Magdalene that was written off? Was there any one who believed that Mary Magdalene was a child of God? In the end, who entered first? Mary Magdalene. The self-righteous Pharisees, where were they?

11.         Get me the whole translations of the Bible out immediately. Last Sunday, many came here thinking they were going to hear a proclamation they had never heard before. Go to the “Bridal Watch” Vols.2,3,4 and 5; everything is there. Go to the message, “This Generation in Prophecy”, everything is there. Go to another message, “Message from Hell”, everything is there; plus others.

12.         I hope I am safe? Pastor Chizoba, come here, use encouraging words to stir up their pure minds.

PASTOR CHIZOBA’S EXPERIENCES

13.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: Amen. Remain blessed brethren. We thank God for today. Do we know where we are? Do we really know where we are? Are we afraid? If you are not afraid, do something! (Clap offering). Amen!

14.         Something happened to me. There was a day the Son of Man sent me to go and collect a package that was sent from the North. I did not know the content, so when I was called, I left for Peace Mass Transit Park.

15.         When I got there, I performed all that was necessary, collected the package, well rapped in a carton. I came to the place people were boarding  Keke. I entered Keke, put the package inside the Keke.

16.         On getting to Post Office I got down. Before I could finish settling with the Keke rider, he had already zoomed off. I was shouting, “My package”, he didn’t hear me.

17.         I ran after him, no way. I was waving at other Keke, no one stopped. I was running but you can imagine and compare the two speeds; the speed of Keke and a person running after the Keke and there was no traffic that time. I ran from Post Office down to Old Market Road, and cornered again.

18.         From that Emeka Ofor junction, I ran up till I got back to their park. I enquired about the Keke and the driver because it got to a point where I could not see it again. I described how the Keke looked like. They said the man had not come back.

19.         I was there and many drivers were leaving. After dropping their passengers, they would come back there, still met me yet that particular one did not come back.

20.         The content of the carton I did not know. If you were the one, what would you have done? As at that time I never knew the content. I stood there from that morning hour, to almost 12.00pm/1.00pm.

21.         I did not know what to do again. Then after some time, I looked up. Immediately, I just made a comment in my heart. Before I could finish the comment, my phone rang. You can imagine the caller. It was from the Almighty God. I faced another fire.

22.         He enquired and I told Him what happened. He said, “You must provide that carton, go and sell the whole of your tribe to provide that carton”. Then I stood there, still praying to Him.

23.         I begged Him on the phone, “My Lord please help me to recover this carton”. He said, “I will never help you! What were you thinking? What were you doing? It was sheer carelessness”.

24.         All hope was almost lost. So after some time, He called back, “Where are you?” I told Him where I was. “Is that where the Keke man took off from?” I said yes sir. “Okay stand there”.

25.         So after some time, any Keke that passed by, both the ones coming from the park and the ones that were just passing across, I must look into it.

26.         So I saw another Keke that passed, he did not come to the park, but I looked at the back and saw a carton, a similitude of the one I had.

27.         I ran after that Keke again. Luckily for me, the man slowed down to pick somebody. I said, “Oga I am the owner of this carton here”. He looked back and said, “Ah! This man, you are very lucky”.

28.         Then I asked him, “Why have you not come to the park since then?” He said he had other jobs. But finally, the carton was recovered. So what am I saying?

29.         S.O.M: I want to hear the experience of the man I met at your office…

30.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: Yes Sir. The publications that were distributed on Sunday last week have already started generating dust. In the office, there at Post Office, the man came for the first time.

31.         I have never done any job for him before, an old man and a wealthy man. He came, he was sitting in my office, we were working, he was looking around.

32.         The copies of the books, the ones given to me for our friends, I kept them on the table. He looked at them, picked one up, also looked at the calender and then we started talking.

33.         When he opened the Vol.2 of Compendium, he read certain things. He looked at the calender and said, “This man has seen something”. I said, “Eehh?” He said, “This man, He has seen something”. In Igbo language, “Nwoke a afugoihe”.

34.         I asked him, “What do you mean?” He said, “Do you think it is easy for someone to come out, claiming anything he wants to claim? Do you not know that forces from the spiritual world will come to test you and know whether you really mean it, whether you are really what you are claiming to be?”

35.         I told him, “It is like you know”. He said he knows, that he is a spiritualist, that he himself is a spiritualist. We talked to some extent.

36.         I asked him, “Do you not know that while walking along the road, you can pass by the Almighty God without knowing that He is God?” He said, “Yes. If He does not reveal Himself to you, how can you know?”

37.         When he was going through the Vol.2 of the Bridal Chronicles, at a time, he said, “The people you are giving these books, do they really understand even common Christianity, much less of these things you filled here with?”

38.         S.O.M: Pure truth! Many of you cannot even understand common Christianity. That is why I am having problems. You can only know about church, you do not know about Christianity.

39.         If you were a Christian and you crossed over to this Movement, believing God would be very easy, serving God would be very easy. But you carried your church attitude, church habit into the Faith, thinking it is a church.

40.         I am not running a church. That is why many of you liken Me to the General Superintendents you know, Bishops and Overseers you know. Even when I told you in the beginning, I am not any of them and I will never be.

41.         I am not Peter, I am not Paul, I am not any of the Messengers. If you want to be their disciple, up to you. I have nothing in relation to them. I am away from all.

42.         I know who I am. I am not numbered among the seven messengers or seven candlesticks or seven lambs or seven spirits; No. I know who I am, and look at who I am.

43.         I am the One that walked in their midst, and is still walking, gathering the whole loose ends to present nothing but Christ to the Bride, no more no less.

44.         So, I am not a messenger, I am not a messenger. He sent His Prophets, they killed them. He sent His son, they killed him. He came live.

45.         And I told you, nobody came but God. Nobody went to Sodom and Gomorrah but God, nobody went to Jericho but God, nobody went to Noah but God.

46.         God does not listen to rumours. He can never use a rumour or hear say to judge a case. He hears, He comes to investigate. He does not take rash decisions.

47.         That is why whenever He closes His mouth over any matter, if you know who He is, steer clear. Steer clear no matter who you are. Go ahead.

48.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: The man was eager to know if he could get a copy. He asked, “Do you sell these things?” I said no.

49.         He said, “This is where you have spoilt the whole thing. How can I get my own now?” Along the way, he said, “How I wish I can see this man”.

50.         Then when I got home, I explained to the Son of Man, He gave me a copy the following morning. He said I should give to him. I got to the office and gave him the copy. He was very happy.

51.         Then coincidentally also, the Son of Man came to the Post Office that same day.

52.         S.O.M: We went to MTN Office, I went with my children. When we finished our assignments, I told them to continue their journey while I went to your office to know how things were standing for the New Year, to assess everything and to put things in their right perspective to enable us take off.

53.         That was the reason why I visited, to assess everything we have. I never knew that the man in question was there doing his work. Go ahead.

54.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: So when I told him that the Man was in the office finally, the Man he said had gone through many things; he was happy. He said, “Will I see Him?” I said, “Let me inform Him first”.

55.         So when I came in and told the Son of Man, “That man is here”, He said I should invite him. He came in.

56.         S.O.M: I was in our own office there, he was in his own. Not in one place, they were separated. I told the Pastor to go and bring him.

57.         I was relaxed with My brethren, notably Agabus, Chibuenyi and Fear-God. They were there.

58.         Then the man came in, met Me in that office, very much relaxed as usual and in My simple way. Go ahead.

59.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: Once he saw Him, he brought out his hand and said, “Let me first of all congratulate You”.

60.         S.O.M: He first of all bowed down, with two hands he stretched forward. A rich man, educated and a spiritualist. Go ahead.

61.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: He was filled with awe so he composed himself very well. Then they started discussing. You will see the discussion flowing.

62.         I mean, the Almighty God tested him in some aspects, even to the extent He asked him a question, “Is it possible for a branch of tree to just come out on its own, not attaching to any plant, any tree, existing on its own without attaching itself to any stem, nourishing itself, bearing fruits, the fruit remaining; whether it is possible.

63.         The man said, “Naturally, it is impossible but spiritually, it is possible”. From there, the Almighty God ticked him good and said, “You are not far from the kingdom”. Amen!

64.         S.O.M: You are not far from the kingdom of Heaven. The following day, he came back with another man, a spiritualist again, his colleague. Come and see.

65.         “Come and see” is a message. Come and see! And the man followed him. The first thing that attracted his attention was the same book. Go ahead.

66.         PASTOR CHIZOBA: He asked, “Which type of book is this? Let me see”. I handed it over to him. He opened it, went through and shouted, “You people have gone far. This thing I saw here from the Book of Enoch, I have the Book of Enoch”.

67.         So we started discussing too many things. And then sometimes, two of them would start discussing, and this one will be telling him, “Ah ah, don’t you know this?”

68.         S.O.M: Sometimes, two of them would be talking between themselves. Come out. Thank you for the testimony. I wanted him to share his experiences with you.

69.         I have forgotten that one where he nearly offended me for being careless, but as a seer, I saw the carton.

70.         But the man had already planned to go to his house to eat. Fortunately, he got two passengers that were going to Peace Mass. If he had gone home and seen sealed carton, forgotten, that would have been the end of the journey.

71.         But I knew that the thing will not take place. “Go and stand there. He is coming there. From 1:00pm till about 4:30pm, remain there”. And I remained where I was, not willing to make a shift until he handed over the carton to me.

72.         And that place was exactly where I stood, he collected it after 4:00pm, came straight and met Me at DMGS, handed it over.

YOU CONDEMN YOURSELF WHEN YOU DISOBEY HIM; WHEN YOU MURMUR AGAINST HIM; WHEN YOU ARE STUBBORN TO HIS WORD; WHEN YOU ARE AN UNBELIEVER; WHEN YOU LIVE A LIFE THAT DOES NOT SYNCHRONIZE WITH THE MESSAGE THAT YOU PROFESS; WHEN YOUR CHARACTER IS NOT HARMONIZING WITH THAT WHICH YOU PREACH. THAT IS WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO RECEIVE CONDEMNATION FROM GOD.

DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE WORD OF GOD PREACHED ON SUNDAY 20TH JANUARY,2019. Pg112, Vs 67.

GOOD HEART

Let me tell you why you are perishing. Anyway, there is no need going there. Your people heard Me, why Jesus could not perform any meaningful thing among his people. Those who heard Me, you can tell others. I never forbade you from telling your people what you experienced.

2.            Before I go to the Throne, let Me read Scriptures with you. Get Me Good News Bible, any translation is okay for Me.

3.            The city of Sodom and Gomorrah will rise up in judgement against all of you in this generation for if the work that was done in you was done in Sodom and Gomorrah, nobody would have perished.

4.            If Sodom and Gomorrah were given the privilege to receive God in human form and He preached to them, they would have repented in ashes.

5.            All those cities like Jericho will rise up to condemn all of you for they were not given the privilege of receiving God in person.

6.            The city of Nineveh will condemn all of you for they received God in person in the stead of Jonah and when they heard the message, from the least to the king, all of them repented with ashes.

7.            God used these cities to show us, those that welcomed God and the message, how they were saved, those that rejected God and the message, they were doomed.

8.            In this life, every man, every woman must have the opportunity to hear from God for if you do not have the opportunity to hear from God and He destroys you, He is a wicked God.

9.            Warning goes before judgment, you can go to the message titled “Warnings from God”, they are all there. The people you call unbelievers, heathens, most of them are already in the Kingdom of Heaven and you know it not.

10.         You might be here claiming the Son of Man to be your brother, your sister, your husband, your  relation, your friend and whatever you may claim, I tell you, you see yourself stumble into hell.

11.         I have been saying it and I will remain hammering on it. Knowing God can never give you eternal life, believing God can never give you eternal life until your belief is made real in your daily life.

12.         Whatever you believe, if it does not reflect in your character, you are the one deceiving yourself. I do not care the way you want to play your smartness or subtlety, rack your sense, your sense will be made complete in hell.

13.         When a man is facing death, all his life experiences will come before him.

14.         Let us go to the Scriptures to know whether I am threatening you. How can I threaten you? Let us go to the Book of Acts Chapter 10. Can somebody give me Good News Bible? I am not neglecting others. You can read your own from any translation. Acts Chapter 10, read from Verse 1. That’s the cheapest you can get, anybody can read.

15.         Acts of the Apostles chapter 10. I will come to this one. How I wish that my people, the Jews, people that received God, have God as their relation, their brother, how I wish they can be saved for they have the zeal but without knowledge.

16.         They want to be saved but the knowledge of salvation has eluded them for refusing the Messiah.

17.         GNB – “There was a man in Caesarea…” Note, there was a man in Caesarea, Philippi. I want to have Living Bible side by side.

18.         “There was a man in Caesarea named Cornelius. He was a captain in the Roman regiment called the Italian regiment”. He was what? A Captain.

19.         Do you think it is easy to be an Army Captain? A Commander in the Roman regiment. It was in the days of General Titus.

20.         To be a Commander in the American Army, is it easy? Even in Nigeria. How many bodyguards are assigned to a Captain? Three! Heavily armed, with a mini moke or official vehicle, all of them combat ready.

21.         Because your education can never give you 3 stars in the Army. What will give you 3 stars is experience. You must taste war for you to have 3 stars.

22.         The highest your PhD can give you after going through the Military School, Defence Academy, the highest is 2nd lieutenant. Finish. No more no less. And there are many rivers to cross before you get that 2nd lieutenant.

23.         But to be a Captain, maybe you do not know that Captain Sankara was the Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of Burkina-Faso. True or false?

24.         A 2nd lieutenant, John Jenny Rolling, was the Head of State, Commander-in-Chief of Ghana. Flight Lieutenant means 2nd Lieutenant. While Sergeant Joe was the Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of Uganda, true or false?

25.         Army is not Police where you can be freely offered a rank because you have been there for long. That is why you can join the Army as a Recruit, after 35 years, you still retire as a Recruit because you have not tasted any war.

26.         I think I want to say something. To be a Captain is not a day’s work. Even in the Nigerian Police, once you see 3 stars, you have seen a DSP, a Deputy Superintendent of Police.

27.         He must be in charge of a unit of operation, even from AAC, you start from the traffic division and progress. Once you are a DSP, you can be a DPO for the next thing is SP. I am going to something. There was a man.

28.         “He was a captain in the Roman regiment called the Italian regiment”.

29.         Roman regiment called what? Italian Regiment. So, Rome is the capital of Italy. Rome is a nation in a nation. A Roman Army, a member of Italian regiment; 1st Division in Roman regiment.

30.         Like we have 1st Division in Nigerian Army, that is Kaduna; 2nd Division in Ibadan. Pay attention! It is not easy to be in the 1st Division of any nation’s Army.

31.         A Captain first note is a Roman, serving under Emperor Augustus, under the General Commander Titus, who invaded Jerusalem. And this man was among the soldiers that invaded Jerusalem, rendered it desolate; in the days of Pontius Pilate and Herod. You must know the background.

32.         “He was a religious man…” He was what? Underline it. What was the religion of Rome? Idolatry, monument worship, will worship. But this man was a different one, soldier, a bloody soldier, had the fear of God.

33.         KJV – “There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius a centurion of the band called the Italian band”. A devout man, one that feared God with all his heart…” Amen!

34.         A devout man and one that feared God with all the members of his house. Can you call him a soldier now? Yes. Can soldiers be saved? Yes. Can soldiers serve God? Yes.

35.         Go to the message, “Recognize Your Day and its own Message”, you will see the position of all uniformed men. You tell me you are a soldier, you are this and that, I will show you soldiers that really served God.

36.         But look at one thing there, a devout man and one that feared God with his entire family. He was not an idolater. He saw the idols of the people, he knew they were wasting their time just like this man who is a spiritualist.

37.         He is a member of the Roman Catholic Church but look at, he is away from Roman Catholic. His brother came, a Roman Catholic, but away from religion. This man, away from religion, not too far from the Kingdom of Heaven.

38.         All of us were in one church or the other but we were not there with all our hearts, something in us was querying where we found ourselves. We never accepted what they were doing, we were revolting.

39.         When they said, “Go to father for confession”, we did not go.“Go for communion”, we refused. We never observed any of their holidays and obligations.

40.         Which means we were there physically’ but spiritually, we were completely away. A sure sign that we never belonged to them.

41.         If it never happened to you before you crossed over, you are still standing where you were. That is why you will see somebody that came out from there, he can never dream of going back again, instead he will reside in his house. How can I go back to my vomit?

42.         “He was a religious man, him and his whole family worshipped God.”He and his whole family worshipped God not idol, but you call him a Roman, a Roman Catholic; he did this, he did that.

43.         He is better than many of you, he did not hear the Word of God but he had the Spirit of God. Nobody preached to him, nobody told him to obey God, fear God and serve God.

44.         Being a Roman and a soldier, every morning, every night, he was at home with his family, praying to the Almighty God, neglecting his uniform, neglecting the gods of Roman Empire. He was a man with another Spirit with his family.

45.         “He also did much to help the Jewish poor people and was constantly praying to God”. He was constantly praying to God, not worshipping idol like the Romans. A military man with the rank of three stars. His entire family feared God, they stood behind their father.

46.         Who espoused them to the true God, is it not their father? They vowed they must be where their father was for their father found the true God.

47.         The Romans thought he was with them, he was just there with them wearing the uniform to enable him earn a living, but his God is different from the god of the Romans. True or false?

48.         He feared God and the fear of God withheld him from evil. He espoused his entire family to the true God and they devoted their time constantly to praying.

49.         But you say you are a child of God because God is in your midst live, you are condemning a man who is better preferred to you, who will condemn you in the end. Don’t worry, we are going to something.

50.         “It was about 3 o’clock in the afternoon when he had a vision”. 3 o’clock in the afternoon, he had a vision. That the eyes of God are upon the righteous and He heareth their prayers.

51.         If you are among the righteous and God does not hear your prayers, you are practicing self-righteousness.

52.         Take note, his religious deeds were giving alms to the needy Jews, attending to the needy people around him, devoting his time and his family to constant prayers, a devout man before God, committed to God. There is no way you can be committed to God and neglect the people around you, without recognizing the poor and the needy. He was giving to charity.

53.         “It was about 3 o’clock one afternoon when he had a vision in which he clearly saw an angel of God come in and say to him, Cornelius…” He saw what? An angel of God in the afternoon.

54.         And He came and said, “Cornelius”; which means God knows you, He knows your dwelling place, He knows your name, He can call you by your name.

55.         His righteous deed, generous deed, willing deed reached the Throne of God. The Almighty God appeared in the form of an angel to respond to all the prayers he had been pouring before the Throne of God relentlessly with his entire family.

56.         If you go to the Book of Psalms, the Bible said “the entire world comes to God in prayers because they believe He answers prayers. The prayer-answering God is the One we are serving.”

57.         His ears are always attentive to the prayers of the saints but He closes His ears to the prayers of the wicked for they are abominations He cannot stand.

58.         “He stared at the angel with fear and said…” He stared at the angel with fear. Can you imagine a centurion, a soldier, well trained with rifle, saw something beyond uniform and he was afraid.

59.         He looked at him, stared at him with fear. Just like Joshua, when Joshua saw this same angel in the warfront, the Bible said, “He gazed at him with fear. Where cometh this man wearing our Army General’s uniform? Man, are you for us or against us?”

60.         But this Captain, he was filled with fear for he never knew how this could be possible that this figure he had never seen before could appear to him a human being, a man. Nobody has ever received God’s visitation as a beast.

61.         Look at what happened there, you see the counter? Yes? “He stared at the angel in fear and said, what is it sir?” What is it sir? Conversation has now ensued; enquiry is very necessary.

62.         He did not want to run away. He enquired, “What is it sir?” No harm in asking question, “Sir, you are a strange being. May I know the purpose of your visitation this afternoon? Never have I come across a man like you”.

63.         Moses saw the flaming fire, he did not run away. He enquired, and then he was convinced.

64.         Paul saw the flashing red light and then a voice. Paul asked, “Who art Thou my Lord?”

65.         Manoah asked a question, “Can I please know your name, that I may tell even my husband, the man that visited me in his absence”.

66.         There is no harm in enquiry, provided your heart is right for God tests every man’s heart looking for a man with a good heart He will be acquainted with; for He delights Himself with men that have good hearts, upright hearts, integrity.

67.         Integrity means dependable, reliable, trustworthy, somebody God can confide in, somebody that is worthy of God’s confidence 24hours. He is sure and certain, come what may; others may disappoint Me, not this one.

68.         Can we see such a person among us? The answer is “Not yet”. Not yet! Even the people He decided to visit in diverse forms, not everybody, instead of developing faith in Him, they are negotiating it even till today.

69.         Their wives told them, their children told them, their visitors told them, “Son of Man came to our house, we saw Him, look at the way He went, look at the way He vanished into one of the rooms. We rushed in, we did not see Him. The following day, He told us how He came, what we were doing and everything”.

70.         Second time, He visited them. Third time in a strange land, he traced them and visited them there to show them that they were not alone. That wherever they went, He was there with them. Till today, they are still negotiating it. And He never demanded their money or bread or anything.

71.         The last time He came, He became a human being, to give you good news, “The time of your suffering is over. Do not travel out. I am bringing you home. Look at how I am going to schedule you. Look at where you will start.

72.         Do not ask Me how you are going to get money because there was not even a Kobo. Let me go there, look at what I would do. The money you will use to pack away, I will raise in less than 1 week. You will have more than that”.

73.         Did He do it? Brother Ojiakor speak; Sister Ojiakor speak. There was only but one woman who you never collected a Kobo from, who was a patient. And I flooded the whole place with patients overnight. There was no room to accommodate patients. Both parlour, everywhere was used, just to raise the money for the movement.

74.         And from that day, they thought it would be Ibagwa. I said no. Look at where we are making our hut at Opi. From Opi, look at where we are heading to.

75.         Finally, we headed there. Said, “From there, I will rest at nothing until I bring you to your hometown. Have I brought them to their hometown? Yes Sir!

76.         It remains one thing. That one thing is, whenever he qualifies and is ready, he will retire in the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi (NAUTH); that is if time permits. That is the only thing remaining.

77.         The children that abandoned school because of hardship, I promised that all of them would be graduates while he is alive. The last one is now a medical student; true or false? Have I not accomplished it? These were the people that stopped education, everything because of hardship.

78.         When there was no opportunity for the wife, I said, “Stop disturbing her, she is a staff of the UNN, simply take Me by My Word. After some years, she enlisted for her Masters, repeated Masters twice; had Masters in Business Management, repeated Masters in Accountancy, went for PhD, the job came. Where is she? UNN.

79.         When she was there in the Accounting Division, the voice said, “No! I will rest at nothing until I see you in the lecture hall”. Where is she now? Lecture hall!

80.         When God is all out to lead, give Him the chance, give way, and do not talk. Say, “God, have your way”. When He stops, you will know.

81.         Only one thing remaineth and that is Nnewi. And what is holding it? Bro Ojiakor, for he stopped the journey. I did not stop it; he stopped it. Amen!

 THERE  IS  SOMETHING  IN  A MAN THAT DOES NOT TELL LIES. IT IS THE CONSCIENCE. THE HUMAN CONSCIENCE DOES NOT TELL LIES. ANYBODY WHOSE CONSCIENCE TELLS LIES, IT IS THAT INDIVIDUAL WHO IS LYING AGAINST HIS CONSCIENCE. THE CONSCIENCE   CAN    NEVER   TELL    LIES AGAINST ANYBODY. SOMEBODY CAN LIE AGAINST THE CONSCIENCE. EVEN IF HIS CONSCIENCE IS CONDEMNING HIM, HE WILL STILL GO AHEAD DOING IT. THE CONSCIENCE WILL BE QUERYING HIM, “WHAT IS YOUR REASON FOR DOING THIS THING?” BUT HE WILL HARDEN HIS HEART ANYHOW AND BE DOING IT.

GOD MUST SURELY JUDGE INIQUITY. PREACHED ON THURSDAY 1ST AUGUST,2019.Pg86,Vs15-18

GOD TESTS THE HEART OF

EVERY MAN

Let us go back to that man, a Centurion, a Roman Army Officer, a heathen, a Gentile, but you call yourselves Jews because you were born a Jew, a native of Israel, tribe of Benjamin, circumcised on the 8th day, Christ is your birth right. Rubbish! I say Rubbish!

2.            That is why St. Paul said, “I have great sympathy for the Jews, they really want to serve God but they cannot make it because of their nature”. And he went further to tell you, “You are not an Israeli because you were born in Israel, rather you are an Israeli because you fear, obey and worship the Living God”.

3.            That is what makes you an Israeli, not because of your birth right. No. If you watch the salutation, we are regarded as the Israel of God.

4.            It is unfortunate you have Apostles that can never teach you, Teachers that are dumb.

5.            We are the real Israelis for we are not circumcised in the flesh alone, but in the spirit, we obey God.

6.            Watch this man you call a Roman, he will rise up in judgement to condemn all of you here that mill around the Son of Man in hypocrisy, in craftiness, in subtlety.

7.            A soldier, you might call him a bloody man, but he and his entire family, like Zechariah and Elizabeth, like Noah and the wife whose name was never mentioned anywhere in the Bible but her deeds were there.

8.             “He stared at the Angel in fear and said, What is it sir?.The Angel answered, God is pleased with your prayers…” Conversation has now ensued.

9.            God is pleased with your prayers and your family. As if there is another God. Who came and answered? God, in the form of Angel, for that is the only language they will use. Angel.

10.         You call them Angels, that is God. God came to answer the prayer. God is pleased with you and your family, He has heard your prayers and petition. But you call him a Gentile, you call him a pagan.

11.         You that claim to be a seed of God, can your cries stop God on the way? Can God hear about you and stop? Have you prayed a prayer that crossed your ceiling?

12.         “The Angel answered, God is pleased with your prayers and works of charity…” And what? Works of Charity! For they were given without expecting anything in return. They were given not politically, they were given generously, willingly, because they saw the need and they responded.

13.         They have been earnestly praying that there could be opportunity for them to manifest the love to the neighborhood and the neighborhood happened to be their greatest enemy, the Jews.

14.         They never withheld their bowels of mercy because the people around them were Jews. Somebody might be thinking that he was giving to the Jews to bribe them into trusting him or loving him. No!

15.         Were the Jews there when he was praying constantly with his family? God tests every man’s heart.

16.         He knows the heart of every man and He tests you to know whether you have a good heart or a bad heart; and He delights himself in good people.

17.         What makes them good is their heart. If your heart does not make you good, you are bad. Your physical appearance might be like that of angel but you are bad. It is your bad heart that makes you bad before God.

18.         It is not that you dress very well or you drive the best car or buy an aeroplane or use the money you have to do campaign before giving to charity, go to the Radio house, the TV Station, the Newspaper, and call the whole brethren on the phone so that they will know what you are doing and clap for you, you are an abomination!

19.         You and your offering are abomination, your heart is bad. You want the world to know you, you want to show yourself, that you are among those they are talking about.

20.         “God is pleased with your prayers and works of charity and is ready to answer you. And now, send some men to Joppa for a certain man whose full name is Simon Peter”.

21.         You know this story. Go to Verse 34. Pay attention! You all know this story.

22.         “Peter began to speak, I now realize that it is true that God treats everyone on the same basis”.

23.         I now realize that it is true that God treats every man, every human being on the same basis.

24.         LB –“And Peter replied, I can see it very clearly that the Jews are not God’s only favorites”.

25.         God treats everyone on the same equal ground, so that you do not think that you are extraordinarily useful. No! Lest you be puffed up with pride.

26.         I asked you a question, “If you know why God loves you, raise your hand”. And all of you raised your hands. Mad people! All of you! Did you go to ask God question?

27.         It is because you do not know who God is and you also do not know who He works with. If you had known, you would have bowed your head to the ground.

28.         That is why the Bible said, “Do not be in a haste to judge or to talk, lest when God will speak, you will be found to be a liar. When I know that all of you are ardent, desperate, committed and devout liars, lying against the truth.

29.         Tell Me what you have done that will make God to love you, even to win the attention of the Deity. You see, you are the one commending yourself, “I have been trying, I have done a lot”. Has God commended you? Has God ever said you have done a lot?

30.         “I now realize that it is true that God treats everyone on the same basis. Whoever worships him and does what is right…”Whoever worships Him and does what is right.“…Is acceptable to him no matter what race he belongs to”.

31.         No matter what race, no matter what religion, no matter what tribe, no matter whatever, whether you are a man or a woman, slave or master. Whether you are a master or slave, an apprentice, wife or maid, or everything, you have that right of eternal life; provided you do that which God has commanded you to do.

32.         How can you say you love God but you can never do simple thing God commanded you to do. If you go to the 1st Chronicles, if any Apostle will be here, you will read where he said, “Give my son, Solomon, a wise and understanding heart; and make him willing to obey You even in the smallest matters”. Is it in the Bible?

33.         1st Chronicles 29 Verse 17. “I know my God that you test men to see if they are good for you enjoy good men. I have done all this with good motives and I have watched your people offer their gifts willingly and joyously.

34.         Oh Lord God of our fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Israel, make your people always want to obey you and see to it that their love for you never changes. Give my son Solomon a good heart towards you…”

35.         Give my son, Solomon, a good heart towards God, do not give him a bad heart to offend the God that created him. Many of you have bad heart, evil heart even towards God.

36.         Instead of praying that God will help you, you are finding fault with God, you are quarrelling with God, you are even castigating God, scandalizing God. Evil heart!

37.         You think God does not know what you are doing? That is why on that day, He will judge you concerning all the evils you have perpetrated against Him in your heart; for the heart is desperately wicked. Who can know it? But God knows everything.

38.         “Give my son Solomon a good heart towards God, so that he will want to obey you in the smallest details”.

39.         So that he will want to obey God even in the smallest details. That smallest might be the biggest before you, the biggest may be the smallest before God.

40.         Who knows the smallest thing God will use to test your heart, to know whether you have a good heart towards God? You may know everything, you may not know that one. It may not be a big thing.

41.         Do you know that to Abraham, killing Isaac was a small thing, to confirm that he loved God? Do you know that to Jephthah, killing the only daughter was a small thing to make sure God was pleased? Do you know that to David, submitting 200 foreskin of men was a little thing to him to prove that he loved his wife? He would like to live with Michal.

42.         That is why, to worship God in spirit and in truth means self-sacrificing worship. You will first of all sacrifice yourself. When you sacrifice yourself as a sweet offering to God, every other thing is made easy.

43.          It is because you have not sacrificed your life, you still own your life. You only remember that you do not own it when you are in sickness, when death is around, then you know you are not the owner of your life, but while you are healthy no way, “Kam di, kam di nwuoo”.

44.         Give my son, Solomon, a very good heart towards God so that he will want to obey You even in the least, smallest detail. Even if He spits on the ground and He asks him to lick it, he will lick it. Smallest detail!

45.         David knew what it takes to obey God and he wouldn’t like the son to make a shipwreck of the throne, for he was the successor to the throne which the Son of Man is sitting on till today; for the throne is an everlasting throne. The dominion is an everlasting dominion, true or false?

46.         The throne of David can never be vacant, impossible. A throne that endureth to all generations where he will sit as the Son of Man, judging the whole world and He is there as the root and offspring of David with a new  name which the Apostles will reveal to you because I have made it known to them.

47.         They knew when He changed to a new person. The one that was there was cut off because of envy and jealousy. They killed Him, He resurrected, migrated with another name, sat on the same throne and will be there till the end of the world.

48.         You see why there were too many things the rest of the Apostles never knew about him but James, John and Peter, they were there always even in the bedroom, in the inner circle, they were there. Too many things they knew, they heard, others were ignorant.

49.         Why? They were casual in their approach, he noticed lack of seriousness in them so whatever he wanted to do, he would take the three leaving the nine behind and they never protested.

50.         Why should they protest? When they were not kicking, they were not coming forward. Not even one could say “Master, whenever you are there, please I would like to be in the number”; and then to know whether he will tell you to stay back.

51.         They were not volunteering their services themselves so he banned them. But these three were ever willing. Check the Scriptures. John was there even to Calvary. James was there even in the days of Paul, James was there, defending the Faith among the Gentiles. Peter was a pillar. Amen!

52.         Look at the centurion. “You know the message you sent to people of Israel, proclaiming the good news of peace through Christ… ”You know the message God sent to people of Israel, proclaiming the good news through Christ.

53.         “…who is Lord of all. You know of the great event that took place throughout the Land of Israel, beginning in Galilee after John preached the message of Baptism. You know about Jesus of Nazareth and how God poured out on him the Holy Spirit and power.

54.         He went everywhere doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil for God was with him. We are witnesses of everything that he did in the land of Israel and Jerusalem, then they put him to death by nailing him to the cross but God raised Him from the dead three days later and caused him to appear, not to everyone but only to…”

55.         Not to everyone but only to we that are chosen. We! Yes? “But only to we that are chosen…”That are chosen!  “That is to us who ate and drank with him after he rose from death”. Amen!

56.         And they did not die, eating and drinking with spirit in human form and He is here in the same way, the Resurrected Body; which made one man from Isialangwa, Mr Anyanwu, to run away till today.

57.         He said, “I do not want to die. You are eating and dining with spirit… The whites said this is not a human being. Everybody there said this is not a human being, yet all of you are eating and drinking. The one I ate is making me scared. I hope He will not ask me to pay for debts”.  

58.         “And He commanded us to preach the Gospel to the people and to testify that He is the one whom God has appointed. Judge of the living and the dead”. Judge of the living and the dead.

59.         “All the prophets spoke about Him, saying that everyone who believes in Him will have his sins forgiven through the power of His name. While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came down on all those who were listening to his message”.

60.         If you go further, you will see where it said, “He is here, He has His home now among us”. We are living with Him now.

61.         Living Bible from Verse 34. “Then Peter replied, “I see very clearly that the Jews are not God’s favourites. In every nation, He has those who worship Him and do good deeds and are acceptable to Him. I am sure you have heard about the good news for the people of Israel that there is peace with God through Jesus the Messiah who is Lord of all creations.

62.         This message has spread all through Judea beginning with John the Baptist in Galilee and you in no doubt know that Jesus of Nazareth was anointed by God with the Holy Spirit”.

63.         Was anointed by God with the Holy Spirit. “And with power, and He went around doing good and healing all who were possessed by demons for God was with Him. And we Apostles are witnesses of all He did…?”We, Apostles. Yes?

64.         “We, Apostles are witnesses of all He did throughout Israel and Jerusalem where He was murdered on a cross. But God brought Him back to life three days later and showed Him to certain witnesses God had selected beforehand”.

65.         God had selected, which means knowing the Son of Man in your day means you were pre-selected, you were ordained. Knowing and getting acquainted with Him whom the world do not know, neither did they recognize Him.

66.         But among you here, there are too many that cannot recognize their Messiah. When they recognize their Messiah, they do not treat Him as Messiah. The unrecognized Messiah among you is your condemnation.

67.         “But God brought Him back to life three days later and showed Him to certain witnesses God had selected beforehand. Not to the general public, but to us”. You see why God said you are here by predestination. Yes?

68.         “Not to the general public, but to us who ate and drank with Him after He rose from the dead. And He sent us to preach the good news everywhere and to testify that Jesus is ordained of God to be the judge of all, the living and the dead. And all the prophets had written about Him saying that anyone who believes in Him will have their sins forgiven through His name. Even as Peter was saying all these things, the Holy Spirit fell upon…”Through His Name. Amen!

69.         I want you to see one picture there. The Roman Army Captain whose heart was good, upright, who had integrity, who feared God and eschewed evil.

70.         All his entire family, he brought before the presence of the Lord, a man away from the crowd. He was following the narrowest part. Only he and his family recognized the true God, and through his giving of alms freely, love to his fellow brethren which he extended to the Jews generously as a religious man, he won the affection of God to the point that God Himself appeared before him.

71.         And if you have read that Scripture well, when God sent Peter, he got there; all that Peter said the man should do, he did all. But there was one funny thing he did.

72.         When he heard that Peter was coming, he believed Peter through the messengers. The Bible said he went out and gathered all his neighbours so that all of them will be partakers of the salvation. He did not narrow it to his nuclear family.

73.         You can read it there. Read Verse 24. Pay attention! “They arrived in Caesarea the following day and Cornelius was waiting for him and had called together his relatives and close friends to meet Peter”. Amen.

74.         He did what? He extended the goodwill, good message, the invitation to his friends, relations to come, that they might be saved together. So that they will be partakers of eternal life. It was not so that he will take it narrowly with narrow mind because he has a bad heart.

75.         A man with evil heart is narrow-minded. He can hardly do anything that will benefit his neighbours or somebody else for he wants to be the one that everybody will worship. True or false?

76.         Have you seen that a Centurion, an Army Officer has performed better than the Jews and God received Him on the basis of his faith in God?

77.         Where then lies the claim of somebody saying that “God is my junior brother, Christ is my senior brother, we are of the same father? Christ is my husband, Christ is my father”, and that is the much you know.

78.         When Jesus was told that his parents came to look for him, he asked a question, “Who and who are my parents?” They said, “Your father and mother and relations are out there looking for you”.

79.         He said “No, My father, my mother, my brothers and sisters are these people that are sitting down here paying attention to my word and they are obeying me. I am about my Father’s business, no longer husband and wife, no longer family, no longer village or community. It is now time for my Father’s business.”

80.         He knew that he was about to go and He was going alone, He came alone. Having accomplished the mission, He must go. Now, I want to show you another person.

What do you want us to call you, as Brethren? And what do you want God to call you? What Brethren see you to be and what they call you, does it harmonize, is it in agreement with what God says you are.

CAN YOUR BRETHREN MAKE

A CASE FOR YOU?

The Book of St. Luke. Living Bible or GNB. Chapter 7 from Verse 1 LB “When Jesus had finished His sermon, He went back into the city of Capernaum. Just at that time, the highly priced slave of the Roman army captain was sick and near death”.

2.            A highly valued priced slave of a Roman Army Officer. Another translation, read that verse 1.

3.            GNB –“A Roman officer then had a servant who was very dear to him. The man was sick and about to die”. Amplified Version. “After Jesus had finished all that he had to say in the hearing of people on the mountain, he entered Capernaum. Now, a centurion had a…”

4.            Now, what? A centurion. You know what a Centurion is? That is the word I have been trying to get because Army officer, you may not know the rank. But the other one, we know the rank to be a Captain. But this one is a Centurion, a Battalion Leader, a Colonel, a Brigadier.

5.            This one is senior to the Captain. So it is not an ordinary army officer, a Centurion. A Commander of a base who has authority to detail other Army Officers to go and carry out assignments and give him a feedback. Yes, go ahead.

6.            LB –“Just at that time the highly prized slave of a Roman army captain was sick and near death. When the captain heard about Jesus…” Note, the Captain heard, he heard about Jesus Christ.

7.            Because he believed on what he heard about Him, he acted on the basis of his belief. And he never believed because his son or maidservant or houseboy highly priced was sick. He had already believed, being a Roman.

8.            I mean, a Roman had believed in the God of the Jews. Am I making sense? Can you not have a picture of this man? An idolater converted.

9.            Remember he was serving his military assignment in the land of the Jews, Israel, in Palestine like the other one, but he is a Roman. I could see that man cherishing the Jews and their God, their mode of worship which was different from that of the Romans. True or false?

10.         Like the first one who noticed that the God of the Jews was better preferred to the God of the Romans and then he subscribed to the God of the Jews.

11.         Look at another one, he had already believed, he has been having encounters with the Jews. He now believed that their God is better preferred than the God of the Romans.

12.         The difference to him was very clear. One was fake, the other was real. One was man-made, the other one was divine.

13.         When the captain heard about Jesus, he sent some respected Jewish elders to ask him to come…” Look at the people he used, some respected Jewish elders.

14.         These people might be those who are acquainted with Jesus Christ, not ordinary members, respected Jews. You know what it takes for a Colonel, a Brigadier serving in your own country or community; the people that he will use will be highly respected individuals that are close to him.

15.         Is it a lie? Can he just go and call a tout?   “When the captain heard about Jesus, he sent some respected Jewish elders to ask him to come and heal his slave. So they began pleading earnestly with Jesus to come with them and help the man”.

16.         The people went to Jesus Christ, saw Him; highly respected Jews, it said, “They began pleading earnestly with Jesus Christ to come and help save the life of the highly valued servant of the centurion”.

17.         That centurion must be an extraordinary soldier, serving in the land. Now, look at the reasons they were giving Jesus. “They told him what a wonderful person the captain was”.

18.         What what? A good man, a good heart for God delights in people with good hearts. For they first of all told Jesus Christ, “This man is a wonderful Army Officer, not like other Roman Officers. We believe this man is good for he could not have been a party to vandalizing our temple. No, he is a different man altogether. Please, come and help save the life of this highly valued servant”.

19.         Yes? “If any man deserves your help, it is he’ they said”. If any man deserves your help, Master, it is this centurion. We are making a case for him.

20.         Can people make a case for you in the time of difficulty? Even among your brethren, have they come to you, known you so close that when you are in difficulty, they can carry your case to the Son of Man?

21.         Like brethren did in the case of Brother Emma Agu last week. The Pastor and some others carried his case to Me. By the time they finished, I told them “I have been in the forefront of the case for it is better to save life than to bury a corpse now.”

22.         They went further to press. I said, “I think it is the issue of finance, do not worry. I know Brother Emma Agu for one thing, although he has his weakness, but I respect him for one thing. He does not like calling Me or anybody, not that he hates Me or anybody. Brother Emma Agu does not like troubling anybody. He loves to bear his problem alone, even the ones he knows he cannot carry, he will try to solve it.”

23.         I told them, “This thing that has compelled him to open his mouth, he has reached a point where he knows that nothing is left. Okay, do not go to him, do not tell him anything. Look at what you will do, go straight there, clear the bills. Hand over this money to the wife, tell them to go before seeing Bro Emma”.

24.         And Brother Emma never knew what was going behind him, that some people that know him very well had already carried his problem to the Son of Man and the Son of Man said “I am interested, because I know Bro Emma; and his wife will never die”.

25.         That I told you what she will pass through and the only sister that has made Me to shed tears, and I told you I doubt whether she holds My number. While we were talking my phone rang before elders, I picked the call not knowing the caller.

26.         When she mentioned that it is Sister Emma Agu, “I am thanking You Daddy”; I said, “Sister hold it there, please have you called this number before?”

27.         She said, “Daddy only once”. I said, “From the day you were married, you came to Onitsha, you had many children, you only dialled my number once?”

28.         Brethren were there, “Deacon Vin, were you there? Were you there, Pastor? Bro Chibuko, were you there?” We were all there. I said, “Brethren can you now see what I said?”

29.         You see, God knows how to vindicate the just. I do not know her name; I do not have her number. She has never sat down before Me even to talk except this problem that arose and I was the one that discovered the trouble and I followed it strictly.

30.         I continued directing, whatever they passed through I told the Elders. If not for the prayer we made on 1st January, we lost her. I told them that we are going to pay from our nose and we paid from our nose.

31.         Can you imagine what could compel the doctor to be crying, nurses weeping? The doctor was shedding tears, nurses shedding tears. Bro Emma never knew what was going on, for they were seeing the sister going away at this age; losing the baby, losing her life and the doctors had tried.

32.         Then at last, it boiled down to what I had already said, they did it and today she is with us.

33.         The matter was so serious, that while we were talking about it, I never knew when My wife zoomed off with her vehicle, rushed to the hospital to see her, live, and then to know how everything was going. By the time she came back, she heard another news and we are all glad worshipping today because we never lost her.

34.         Another case, they could not get Me. They called and called, they never knew I was in the Post Office with our Pastor; service was not there in My phone.

35.         They got My wife, mentioned the whole thing. She said, “Okay, since you could not get my Daddy, see what you will do now, go to hospital. I will try to get in touch with Daddy, since the line is not reachable. It is on, only that there is no service”.

36.         So when she told Me, I said, “Okay, you advised very well”. I called them to find out what was going on, they said, “Daddy, we are between life and death. The elders were with Me, the wife called again; she said “Daddy, we are in Your hands. There is no hope again, it is only in You that we have our hope.”

37.         Because something was about to happen, I remembered My Word on 1stJanuary. I told brethren, “You see? To begin this thing again, last year we buried seven corpses – the highest”.

38.         Let me mention them to your hearing; Papa Abu, Sister Eunice Abu, Bishop Ifeanyi Eze, Elder Elochukwu Amobi, Bro Goddy Ikechebelu, the wife of Bro Sunday Ugorji (the Deacon), and Onyema Isaac.

39.         On the whole, seven. Out of the seven, five received rousing and expensive burials; the two, we gave them money. We calculated how much we collected and how much we spent, brethren we spent 4.8million on burials last year.

40.         I have all the records, so to many of you who were complaining, “Eh, we have been levied too much”; nobody levied you. Say, “You have been contributing every now and then”; okay we have 12 calendar months in a year and we buried seven, how many months left?

41.         Did we bury them in one month? At intervals; which means from the beginning we only had our rest from the month of September. For we buried Elochukwu on August 1. Take note, if we buried Elochukwu on August 1, how many months to December?

42.         September, October, November, December; which means 4 months and the 4 months we devoted to printing our books. We devoted everything.

43.         No breathing space, from January to August; burial, burial, burial.  Even the Local Assemblies, after paying their contributions, they still contributed for chattering vehicles, that will curved them to and fro

44.         So let nobody ever crucify the Son of Man. You did not pay into My bank account, I never equipped Myself with your money, what you contributed was what you should contribute.

45.         You were told you will get your fair share for you are harbouring many hypocrites, many will die, many will be exposed, marked bad. If not that I stood My ground and then stemmed down the tide of death, converted it to marking them bad and then leaving them alive, up till now we would have buried up to six.

46.         Who would have been buried? Number one was Abraham Paul, but good news, after everything he was discharged last night, healthy. We are with him right now.

Let Me tell you the truth. The greatest cankerworm destroying many here, that is what I want to tell you. Number one is presumptuous sin. They presume and conclude that their presumption is right when it may not contain a single truth. That is one. Number two is that they feel downgraded, disrespected, debased by God. That God is taking too much. Go home and think about these two cankerworms. Before you hear somebody saying, “Let me go and talk to Him in His face”, that was what happened between Moses and the people of Israel. True or false?

PRESUMPTUOUS SIN

W

E HAVE TO FOLLOW THE MINISTRY VERY CLOSELY. IF YOU ARE NOT INSIDE, YOU ARE OUTSIDE. YOU CAN NEVER BE OUTSIDE AND INSIDE AT THE SAME TIME.

SO WHEN YOU ARE MURMURING AND COMPLAINING, BE VERY CAREFUL LEST YOU INCUR CONDEMNATION TO YOURSELF FOR SPEAKING EVIL WHERE EVIL DOES NOT EXIST.

2.            ANOTHER THING, YOU GUARD YOURSELF AGAINST COMMITTING PRESUMPTUOUS SIN, YOU ARE PRESUMING, BUT WHAT YOU ARE PRESUMING DOES NOT EXIST.

3.            How many are we in number in all the Local Assemblies that are financing all these things? Finance the books, finance some other expenses we made in-between the lines; we renewed the websites, we purchased even three softwares, we were using software to upload, everything amounting to over Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira (₦450,000.00).

4.            Remember, at a stretch, while we were launching the books, we were printing the books, we came up with the Youth Conference. True or false? You know what happened here.

5.            Three hundred and thirty-five youths, we gathered here. When we were doing it, we came up with the Son of Man’s birthday, all at a stretch. YOU MUST TRY TO BE INSIDE, DO NOT OPERATE OUTSIDE. OTHERWISE, YOU MAY COMMIT PRESUMPTUOUS SIN.

6.            You might be thinking that somebody somewhere is duping you and the person you think is duping you is contributing more than you. He is dying, his account dwindling to make sure our programs are carried out to the later; that they do not fail. You make noise when you contribute but there are people that do not make noise.

7.            What is My joy? We have never levied anybody. It has always been, chip in whatever you have, voluntarily. Or do you want to tell Me that we should not have buried the dead among you?

8.            You see why you have to be very up and doing, do not be a passive worshipper, white collar worshipper wearing white upon white. Be inside, be a part of what is happening in the Bride.

9.            It will help you to even save others from committing presumptuous sin for what you are presuming do not exist. If it exists, it is existing in your mind. It is your feeling, it is your mind; why making it real when it does not exist?

10.         Just like we told you, “Carry the books home”;we distributed. We did not say “Give us anything”. Whatever you want to give, pay in there, to enable us clear the debts. Do we know how much you are paying in?

11.         But many are not happy with the Son of Man. I know, the Pastors know. Why? I closed avenues by which they are duping their Local Assemblies; by introducing a Single Treasury Account. It is not My own, I am not a member of the Trustees, my signature no dey there.

12.         Whatever, do not give to anybody. Pay it in there so that at a glance, everybody will know where we are standing financially. This is My offence. So when they run to their Pastors, they normally use their positions to intimidate.

13.         Somebody called Me and said, “Daddy you have set me free. We collected a Hundred and Twenty Thousand Naira (₦120,000.00) for so, so and so. For they said the Son of Man said and You verified it. We got a Hundred and Twenty Thousand Naira (₦120,000.00), we paid in Forty Thousand Naira (₦40,000.00), Eighty Thousand Naira(₦80,000.000) was taken by our Elders”.

14.         As I am talking to You now, Aba is yet to account for all their money they collected.  Chinemezu collected Twenty Thousand Naira (₦20,000.00) and gave us One Thousand Naira (₦1,000.00).

15.         We have the record, it is there in the file. Obadiah collected more than that, they surrendered equipment when they got My letter; “Surrender all the equipment you are using in Aba for worship to Obingwa”.

16.         Bro Ojiakor, you were there, we read the letter, Obingwa has written. Aba has not given Me a list of what they surrendered. Obingwa has written, telling Me what they received. Brethren, one naira was not handed over, one kobo.

17.         And watch the thing, they shared their plastic seats, handed over only two plastic seats. So the whole of Aba was using two plastic seats for their worship? Do not worry.

18.         I called Obadiah, do you know what he told Me? “Eh, I suggested before and I am still saying that You will tell us to come together and audit Aba. Those that are holding money for Aba, we will audit them, to enable them account for the money. For now, I am not holding even one naira”. Can you imagine?

19.         Operation share it among yourselves. They use the Name of the Son of Man to raise money among themselves, they share it among themselves. Amen.

20.         If I did not parade those responsible for your money here, to tell you how much they collected from your brethren abroad, who are making noise, you are servicing them,  you heard, none of them gave us a kobo,  one kobo.

21.         One who said he was thanking Me, they told Me his wife collected the books, two for the husband, two for herself and then paid in Ten Thousand Naira (₦10,000.00); saying, “Five Thousand Naira for myself, Five Thousand Naira for my husband”.

22.         A Book that is valued at Six Thousand, Five Hundred Naira (₦6,500.00), that was the production cost. ₦6,500.00 multiplied by 2 is how much? Thirteen Thousand Naira (₦13,000.00). You paid in Ten Thousand Naira; not up to production cost.

23.         You might be thinking that maybe your children or your brethren abroad have a link to Son of Man or His account where they are lodging the money that Son of Man is embezzling, it does not exist.

24.         I called for the money you contributed for the Birthday, Apostle Ojiakor posted it through Pastor Chizoba’s e-mail. I went through, I called My children, “Pastor Wisdom come, take, go through. Chukwudi come, go through”. They shed tears.

25.         I told you from the very beginning, I the Son of Man, I believe in accountability and transparency and that is why I keep accurate records. When Okechukwu Nwamkpa damaged My records, I created a new one through Igwe Amobi.

26.         They are there, and we are continuing. I do not destroy any record, I do not destroy any receipt no matter how small.  Come to Me, they will take you to the library you will see the heap of files, you must see what you are looking for. Why must I destroy records?

27.         It is one who is not sure of himself or who is afraid of somebody. And that is why I said, criticize me if you can, destructively or constructively. Write whatever, somebody who came out and said, I am the dustbin of the Saints.

28.         You will hear many disturbing accusations against Me, do not ever defend Me for it is a mark of My calling. I want the whole world to leave these brethren, face Me. I will cushion all.

29.          Let us go back, from the beginning. Watch another Centurion. A Roman, full of self-sacrifices, the first one, full of self-sacrifices, a Roman. But you may call him a Catholic, “He is a Roman Catholic”, but he is better than you. He is better than you by far. “He is a Pentecostal”, he is better than you.

30.         Except your righteousness exceeds that of the Romans, can kettle call pot black? Can you cancel one who is better than you? If you doubt Me, I will do another thing this year and all of you here will cover your faces in shame. Let Me still hold it in My heart.


If you are spiritual and wise, your closeness to the Son of Man can give you Eternal Life, but if you are stupid, blind and unreasonable, your closeness will give you Eternal Damnation. I am using all these illustrations to type one thing. If you want to survive with your closeness to the Son of Man, pause a little, trace the history of those that worked with Him and perished and those that worked with Him and survived. It may be for your condemnation that God brought you closer to Himself to have close monitoring of your daily life. You might not know the level of reports He receives concerning you. It might be that God is willing to save you, decided to draw you closer to Himself. You must find out why.

MANY WILL BE CONDEMN

When Jesus had finished his sermon he went back into the city of Capernaum. Just at that time the highly prized slave of a Roman army captain was sick and near death”.

2.            Note, if you are serving somebody, if you happen to be living with a brother, a sister, you are serving as apprentice or whatever, in any capacity you are, provided you are there with your fellow brethren; strive to render acceptable service that will dignify your personality; that will do what? Dignify your personality.

3.            When your personality is dignified, then you have what I had earlier told you, you are now dignifiedly included in the family, dignified inclusion. You are now a member of the family, holding a dignified status.

4.            To the point that this Centurion, when he heard about this man,  he said “I do not want this my boy to lose his life. He is highly valued in my house”. 

5.            Promise, are you hearing Me? Chika, are you hearing? Chiemelie, are you hearing it? How many of you are highly valued in the Son of Man’s family? When you are busy degrading yourselves, devaluing yourselves.

6.            How can you obtain that dignified status? Because your character, your attitude, your performance gives you a dignified position wherever you are.

7.            So your inclusion in My family should be a dignified one where no man will notice the difference between you and My own biological children. True or false?

8.            That is what we call “Dignified Inclusion”. Because you have been raised to the status of the Son of Man’s family and children, everything I have for my children belong to you, no discrimination.

9.            If you are sick, I will respond as if I am responding to Wisdom or to any of My children. But when you begin to behave as a stranger, an outcast, by using craftiness, subtlety, to follow Me, I will treat you as such.

10.         Because good character exalts everybody, bad character demotes. Bad character debases, reduces. Amen.

11.         “When the captain heard about Jesus, he sent some respected Jewish elders to ask him to come and heal his slave. So they began pleading earnestly with Jesus to come with them and help the man”.

12.         Who was pleading earnestly? Some respected Jewish Elders. Not Roman Elders. 

13.         “So they began pleading earnestly with Jesus to come with them and help the man. They told him what a wonderful person the captain was”.

14.         What a good man, with a good heart. A man of integrity the captain was to them.

15.         “If anyone deserves your help, it is he,” they said, “for he loves the Jews and even paid personally to build us a synagogue!”

16.         What? He loved us, loved the children of God and personally undertook with his own personal money to build a synagogue, a Worship Center for them, being a Roman.

17.         Who has ever seen something like this before? So generous. That is why I am telling you, tell Me that which you think you are doing for the Son of Man for which you think you can be puffed up with pride? Heathens do more than that. I said heathens do more than that.

18.         Did God save the Roman before he started doing this? He was doing all these things before the servant even became sick. When the servant became sick, the people who knew him very well were chosen to go and meet Jesus Christ because he had already believed in Him.

19.         When they got there, they began to tell Him, “If any man should be helped, it is this man. If any man deserves mercy, it is this man. Look he has a very good heart. He has a good heart, he loves the children of God and see what he is doing for us”.

20.         William Branham said, “God will save a lot of heathens for loving the children of God”. Lots and lots of heathens, and I told you I have a handful of them in My books. You do not know them but I know them.

21.         And I know the extent they are helping to sustain Me in doing this work hence I lack nothing. I know the extent.

22.         Somebody who could stand here and tell you “Please is there any who is speaking Igbo here? Did they say we should stop speaking Igbo? We will not agree, instead we will use our hands to grab Him on the waist, we will grab his cloth. You people should not agree”.

23.         Did you not hear it on the Birthday? Did you not see the person that said it? “We will not allow Him to go, you people should not agree. We too will not agree, instead we will use our hands to grab Him. Let us hold Him.” Amen.

24.         If you know the value of gold, what do you do? But unfortunately many do not know the value of gold. That is why even if it is given to them free, they mess it up.

25.         They started recounting the mercies of the man, the type of heart he has towards the children of God. Instead of persecuting them like other Romans, he is showing them favor.

26.         Voluntarily, after bastardizing their temple, he saw them worshipping in the open air, used his own personal money to build a Synagogue and commanded them to go in there and worship God. And you tell me that God will forget this man’s act of good heart?

27.         He did not say, because they are not our church members, they are not our people, did they not call us Antichrist? But look at what happened there. Yes?

28.         “Jesus went with them; but just before arriving at the house, the captain sent some friends to say, “Sir, don’t inconvenience yourself by coming to my home…”

29.         Do not inconvenience yourself by coming to my home, I am unworthy. Read it in King James Version, that Verse.

30.         “Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed” (KJV).

31.         I am not worthy that you should come, go and tell the Master that he should not inconvenience himself by coming into my house for I am not worthy. I am not worthy to receive this man.

32.         Consider the age of Jesus Christ, his humility, his background was poor. I am not worthy. Is there any respect greater than this?

33.         Even exercised faith in his spoken word, said, “Just speak a word”. Not send handkerchief, not bless olive oil. He held him at his word for he had already believed in the power that is vested upon the man, believed all that he heard; which made him to subscribe to helping all that are serving the same God.

34.         Jesus went with them; but just before arriving at the house, the captain sent some friends to say, “Sir, don’t inconvenience yourself by coming to my home, for I am not worthy of any such honor or even to come and meet you”.

35.         I am not worthy of any such honor, but there are some places where Christ volunteered to go and they never honored Him for they do not know His worth.

36.         In some places argument ensued, as if they were going to buy the whole world to receive Him. But a millionaire, a Centurion, was full of fear, reverence, respect for the Lord.  He said “I am not worthy that thou shall come under my roof”.

37.         “Sir, don’t inconvenience yourself by coming to my home, for I am not worthy of any such honor or even to come and meet you. Just speak a word from where you are, and my servant boy will be healed!”

38.         Listen, do you know that the Jews claimed his visitation as their right, like many of you? You see no difference, after all He is a mere man like you, but to the Commander, the Centurion, he never saw Jesus Christ as a mere man or a small boy or a mere civilian. He had a revelation higher than many of you even watching Me now.

39.         If it is not documented in the scriptures I might be telling lies. Remember I am using Gentiles, people that knew not God, people that you are still condemning, calling them Romans even till this afternoon.

40.         I am telling you that most of them are better than you. You see why I say every time, translation is going to spring surprises. True or false? Have you not been hearing it?

41.         Surprises will surely take place, many big names will be completely absent. Prophet Ferdinand Uzoma of the Bride of Christ Ministry before he died said “I prophesy to you this morning; popular, famous, big names can hardly make rapture in the Bride”.

42.         I do not know where you classified yourself, whether among the popular or big names, those who were there who can claim to be the foundation. Claiming Son of Man as your birthright, as your co-equals. 

43.         But a Commandant, a Centurion saw a young man as one higher than him in all respects. Was he respecting the human being? He was respecting He that was in him, the office he occupies and the virtues coming out of him.

44.         The way you approach a man determines what you will get from him. True or false? If you approach a superior officer casually, you get nothing from him. And no man occupies an office because of age. True or false? Even traditional ruler-ship is not because of age, Presidency is not because of age.

45.          “Just speak a word from where you are, and my servant boy will be healed!”Speak a word from where you are, “Daddy, I do not want You to come”.

46.         The only person I have seen with this type of faith is Sister Grace Jumbo of Utu, “Daddy, my location is far but it is not far for You for I know You can see me. Daddy what I want is for You to speak, speak, speak; Grace, your daughter will be healed”.

47.         I will hail her “Baby, Baby Jumbo”. “My Father, speak a word”. And with that faith I will speak, two days you will begin to hear testimonies. Somebody might be thinking that I drove down to Utu.

48.         Look at this man you call heathen, an unbeliever, a Roman, an idol worshiper, look at the faith. Yes?“I know, because I am under the authority of my superior officers, and I have authority over my men”.

49.         I have authority over my men, I am also under authority by my own superior officers. “I only need to say ‘Go!’ and they go; or ‘Come!’ and they come”.

50.         I only need to command them to go and they will go; come, they will come. Because they are loyal, nobody has any objection, nobody negotiates any command.

51.         Like I was telling Brother Ojiakor yesterday, “Close your mouth, seal up your lips. You have spoken enough. This matter now belongs to Me, and I am invoking executive order. If you like go to the moon, this is My order. Leave My presence with your family”.

52.         And My order holds, My order holds.  He had no other choice, negotiation stopped, boiling stopped.

53.         Because when God speaks, if you are a seed of God, all you have to say is Amen. But if you are not a seed of God, you have many things to offer. You have suggestions, you will like to be heard. 

54.         Then He will hear you, not knowing that you are wasting your energy, mere dissipation of energy, for He had already concluded on what He wants to do.

55.         Who has ever been His counsellor? Nobody. That is what many do not know about the Son of Man. You may say, “Daddy I think you had agreed, Daddy I think I told you”.

56.         I say, “Yes now. I agreed with you but I had already taken My decision. That is all. What you know is that what you were asking for. I have given it to you but what I will do is in Me”. Period.

57.         You make your plea from now till the next world, you cannot touch it for it is best known to Me. And the way I will carry it out, I know. When I will do it, I know.

58.         That is one thing with all soldiers, if a soldier wants to kill you, you will never know. You eat and drink with him, play draft, he will even sleep with you in your house, you carry him in his vehicle, in your own vehicle also.

59.         He will befriend you more and more. He has already stipulated the date, the hour he will get rid of you and where he will do it. It can be one year, it can be two years but when that hour strikes, he will take you there, you will not come back.

60.         I only need to say ‘Go!’ and they go; or ‘Come!’ and they come”. Look, I have authority over my men.

61.         If you are a seed of God and God does not have authority over you, to the extent of commanding you to go, you go; come, you come, you are on your own. I said you are on your own.

62.         Go to the message; “ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE?” Many sitting down here are walking alone, you are not walking with God for God has no hand in whatever you are planning, whatever you are doing.

63.         If He says “Come”, you have your reasons why you will be going. He says “Go”, you have your reasons why you will be coming. You are walking in the opposite direction, so your heart is never right with God.

64.         ONCE YOUR HEART IS RIGHT WITH GOD, ALL YOUR ACTIONS MUST BE IN AGREEMENT WITH GOD, AND GOD CAN NEVER FAULT YOU. CAN GOD FAULT GOD?

65.         “I only need to say ‘Go!’ and they go; or ‘Come!’ and they come; and to my slave, ‘Do this or that,’ and he does it”. Hold it there.

66.         One of us here left Onitsha for a long distance one day, there were too many things that happened on the highways, they vowed never to communicate with Me.

67.         The following morning, while praying they placed a sign;“If the Almighty is aware of this, and we are through with all these things, I will place my phone here, I will not call. Let Him be the first to call me. But if by so, so and so time He does not call, I will call”.

68.         By the time they finished making the statement the phone rang, it became the same Son of Man. He never waited until the time they stipulated, any other evidence?

69.         We were talking in My house yesterday, I needed to clear certain things and I called Bro Chibuko, “Please this is the brother you mentioned, call him”. We called and he responded.

70.         We never knew he was at My gate and he is not used to coming to My house. The man I said he should call was already at My gate, answered at My gate.

71.         The other day, we were talking about sister Joe Ukpong, we were confused about how we could get her number, while we were talking her text message came in. Am I making sense?

72.         Though you might be one million miles away, if your heart is right, you are always connected to the Head.

73.         “So just say, ‘Be healed!’ and my servant will be well again!Jesus was amazed”. Jesus was what? Amazed.

74.         “Turning to the crowd he said, “Never among all the Jews in Israel…”Never, among all the believers of the Son of Man in the whole Bridal Faith, never.

75.         “Never among all the Jews in Israel have I met a man with faith like this. And when the captain’s friends returned to his house, they found the slave completely healed”. (LB)

76.          If you read it in the Book of Mathew Chapter 8, you will see where he said “Many of you, I say unto you will sit down here calling me Messiah, Messiah and people you know not, you call Gentiles will come from the East and the West and come into the Kingdom of Heaven, sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You who are supposed to be members of the Kingdom will be completely locked out”.

77.         Will be completely locked out; why? You are politicizing the Son of Man instead of believing the Son of Man. The Son of Man does not have control over any of you talk less of obeying a command given to you from a distance.

78.         If you cannot obey Me in My presence, how am I sure you will obey Me from distant land? I am here with you, if I am talking, you will be talking, your mouth is still filled with words. You still have your reasons why you should be listened to.

79.         Begin to imagine if you were somewhere else and I called you and told you to do it this way, you will say okay I have heard you and you will go ahead to do what you like.

80.         When you get stuck, you will lie. For one who is stuck will not say the truth, he will lie, making matters worse.

81.         Brethren, are we not under condemnation? Can we see that God will use the faith of the heathens to condemn us? Are these not practical cases, real cases? There is not even one that is a mere story. No hypothetical case there, all real stories.

82.         Look at the personalities involved. How many of you are equal to one of them? All round? Tell me one of us that is equal to a finger of those Captains. Are you up to the level of a Centurion?

83.         This one that brought out his own personal money to build a Synagogue for people he does not know telling them to go and worship their God; upon every other help he has been rendering, to the extent that the Jews came themselves to say, “Master please, if there is anyone that deserves your help, it is this man”.

84.         Can it be said about you? Even among the heathens? You keep saying, “Translate us, we are going to rapture, we are going home”. Look at those going to rapture, see how they look. Who are you going to rapture with?

85.         When I know that many of you here are condemning the Son of Man every day because of My generosity to the heathens, the much you know. I said the much you know, because often times I send some of you, “Carry so, so and so to these people, this woman we heard about her child, this man look at…”

86.         Because I involved you, sometimes I do not. Even the generous community work I do, that will benefit the whole community, because you know about it, many criticize Me in their hearts, even among the Elders.

87.         “Daddy said there is no money and He used over Two Hundred Thousand Naira (₦200,000.00) to construct roads for heathens. The other day, He said He went to see so, so and so person, He asked to send food to so, so and so; and these people are not in the Faith”.

88.         What about those that are in the Faith, do you talk about those ones, you are still the one that carry it to them, the envelope that people are giving to brethren, are you not the ones that share them? Is it not among you? Both in Onitsha and other Local Assemblies as well; do you talk about those ones?

89.         Is it only this one that is done for those you hate? But the Son of Man does not hate them. That is why when you hear that Jesus Christ went everywhere doing good, obtaining favor from men and from God, if you are a seed of God the same report must follow you for a servant ought to be as perfect as the master. Is it not scripture?

90.         How do you claim you belong to Christ when your life is negative? Filled with hatred and division? Simple instruction no way. But look at Solomon; Solomon was giving everything alms to everybody being a king.

91.         I was telling Bro Ojiakor and the rest, “Do you know the position the Son of Man is occupying? Eh? I am a King and a Priest. The same Throne of David, a throne where people will be looking up to for help.

92.         Where food, everything will be distributed from? Said, will He go stealing? Is it not from the general gifts of everybody that He shares to others? Is it not what was kept at the feet of the Apostles that was shared to others?” Amen.

93.         Do you know that if I did not use My hand to share the books last Sunday, somebody would have been pushed to the ground, some people must have fought. There are also some that got books that would never have gotten it till eternity.

94.         I mean that Pastors and those in authority, instead of giving these people, they will take about 4 personal copies for themselves. Human beings are bad.

95.         The person you said is not a seed of God believed God more than you and his life also bearing witness that he believes God more than you. Where then lies your claim? Do you not know that God will use that person to condemn you?

96.         That he whom you called an unbeliever is believing God more than you. What do you gain from coming here to jump up and down?

97.         I am sorry, I said I will not preach but I mean, I appear to be beside Myself today. I have many scriptures I wanted to read but I do not think I would read them unless I want to tell Bro Ojiakor and Apostle Kelechi.
