Preached on Sunday, 16th SEPT. 2018 At The Household of God, Onitsha By Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN
THE GREAT MAHDI
The world will never run away because you died or because I died. No! It is a crime to refuse to plan. But if you plan and it does not happen the way you planned it, it is not a crime. The crime is not planning at all. Where you have no plan, God has nothing to support. When you make a plan, and you commit it into the hands of God, before you know it He will establish it for you. Amen.

EVERY MAN MUST GO THE WAY HE IS ORDAINED [1]
1. I feel like riding on but the more I quote the more that short Message will remain there. Okay continue with that Great Sermon.
2. The Great Sermon Page 271 verse 31. Please, pause a little and ponder over these scriptures. You will begin to appreciate the type of love God has bestowed on us who have believed the gospel of Christ.
3. “Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle,….No matter how I scream here, no matter how I shout; Even if I use a whip on you. Bray a fool in a mortar. Put a foolish person in a mortar and pound the person with the pestle. Yes!
“Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him” (Prov.27: 22 KJV)
4. Brethren fear God. Remember the topic we are considering. “EVERY MAN, EVERY WOMAN, EVERYBODY MUST GO THE WAY HE OR SHE IS ORDAINED.”
5. “Even though like grain you should pound a fool in a mortar with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him. (Prov. 27: 22 AMP)
6. You see why to banish worship in Jerusalem will be very difficult for me to consider because it offers Me a wonderful opportunity at least to put all of you in remembrance together as many will be privileged to be coming here.
7. But what is the fate of people that are afar off who, for one reason or the other, cannot make it at least once in a month. They depend on the Messages they download here but you see Me life.
8. I talk to you one-on-one, face to face, mouth to mouth and even shake your hands. But they see in camera. They hear my voice in camera but you can tell the world,“ I was there. I am an eye and ear witness. That was no magic.”
9. “Even if you beat a fool until he is half dead, you still cannot beat the foolishness out of him.(GNB)
10. Then why beating the fool? Beat the fool into coma, until the fool faints, yet you cannot beat foolishness out of him. After all the teaching and preaching, the condition remains the same. The remedy is not in flogging.
11. “You cannot separate a rebel from his foolishness though crush him to powder.” (Prov. 27: 22 LB). Never! Though you crush him to powder, you cannot separate him from his foolishness.
12. “Can the Ethiopian change his skin or leopard his spots? Then may ye also do good that are accustomed to do evil.” (13 verse 23 KJV)
13. He that is accustomed to doing evil, can the person do good? One who evil has permeated into his blood, bone and marrow, can anything good come out of him again? Who can change what God has said?
14. Oftentimes, we try to achieve the impossible. God will say, “It is impossible.” Human beings will say, “It is possible.” Have you succeeded in changing it? You can only make noise around it.
15. Let Me tell you: Attempting to change the thing, I call it mere dissipation of energy. I say it is mere dissipation of useful energy. Do we have such people in the world? What if they are traceable to our Camp and our mini camps? Incorrigible people!
16. And all of them are holding Bible o! Claiming to be God’s children. Dancing better than us. Preaching better than the best preacher. Yet, the life of Christ is not made evidence in their lives.
17. “Can the Ethiopian change the colour of his skin? Or a leopard take away his spots? Nor can you who are so used to evil now start being good? (Jer. 13: 23LB)
18. “Let favour be showed to the wicked yet will he not learn righteousness, in the land of the uprightness will he deal unjustly and will not behold the majesty of the Lord” (Isa. 26: 10 KJV)
19. Never! He is an Agric fowl. When you chase it, it flies onto the bed. From the bed, it will match on the food.
20. Let favour be shown to the wicked. Yet, will he not change in the land of good people. In the land of upright people, that is where he will perpetuate his wickedness.
21. Do good to him. He will pay back with evil. He does not fear the Lord. He does not behold the majesty of the Lord. Amen.
22. “Your kindness to the wicked does not make them good; they keep on doing wrong and take no notice of Your majesty.” (Isa. 26: 10 LB)
23. “Even though you are kind to wicked men, they never learn to do what is right. Even here in a land of righteous people they still do wrong “They refuse to recognise Your greatness.” (Isa. 26: 10 GNB)
24. Even here! Even in our midst, the land of righteous people, they still do evil. Their hearts are set to doing evil continually. They can never change. Expose them before the brethren, it does not touch them.
25. Now, they are going home to stay in their families. Well, only the Almighty will say what is going to take place. Only the Almighty! Please take this matter very seriously. It is not a light matter o!
26. “Though favour be shown to the wicked, yet they do not learn righteousness, in the land of uprightness they deal perversely and refuse to see the majesty of the Lord.” (Isa. 26: 10 AMP)
27. CHAPTER 2. From all these revealed truths about human being, is there anybody confused or astonished, by the way people behave especially when they abandon the Faith of Christ?
28. Can you now agree with me that there is no amount of preaching that can transform a dog into a goat? God created all human beings to fulfil special purposes in their lives. God did what?
29. God created all human being to fulfil special purposes in their lives. You should concern yourself to finding why God created you, and not on why people behave the way they behave. If you believe it, say amen.
30. “For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew My power in thee and that My name might be declared throughout all the world.” (Rom. 9:17 KJV)
31. “Pharaoh king of Egypt was an example of this fact, for God told him, He had given him the kingdom of Egypt for the very purpose of displaying the awesome power of God against him, so that all the world would hear about God’s glorious name.” (Rom. 9:17 LB)
32. “For the scripture says to the king of Egypt, I made you king in order to use you to show My power and spread My fame over the whole world.” (Rom. 9:17 GNB)
33. Can anybody say that God is unjust in this regard? No. God forbid.
34. “No, do not say that, who are you to criticise God? Should the thing made, say to the one who made it, why have you made me like this?
35. When a man makes a jar out of clay, does not he have a right to use the same lump of clay to make one jar beautiful, and to be used for holding flowers and another to throw garbage into?
36. Does not God have a right or perfect right to show His fury and power against those who are fit only for destruction?
37. Those who are only fit for destruction. They good to keep alive, they are only good for destruction.
38. Does not God have a perfect right to show His fury and power against those who are fit only for destruction? Those, He has been patient with for all this time.” (Rom. 9: 20-22, LB)
39. “Nay, but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, why hast thou made me thus?
40. Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour and another unto dishonour?
41. What if God willing to shew His wrath and to make His power known endured with much longsuffering the vessel of wrath fitted for destruction” (Rom. 9:20-22, KJV)
42. “But who are you, my friend, to answer God back? A clay pot does not ask the man who made it why did you make me like this?
43. After all, the man who makes the pots has the right to use the clay as he wishes, and to make two pots from the same lump of clay, one for special occasions and the other for ordinary use.
44. And the same is true of what God has done. He wanted to show His anger, and to make His power known. But He was very patient in enduring those who were the object of His anger, who were doomed to destruction” (Rom. 9: 20-22, GNB)
45. God Himself made some people object of His anger and some object of His praise.
46. I am happy to say or announce to you all that Joshua, the BRANCH, and His people are object of God’s praise, because they are illustrations of good things to come.
47. The same God ordained some to this present condemnation for refusing to obey the truth of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ in their day.
48. “For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace 0f our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Jude 4, KJV)
49. “For some godless people have slipped in unnoticed among us, persons who distort the Message about the grace of our God in order to excuse their immoral ways, and who reject Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord. Long ago the scriptures predicted the condemnation they have received” (Jude 4, GNB)
50. “I say this because some godless teachers wormed their way in among you, saying that after we became Christians we can do just as we like without fear of God’s punishment. The fate of such people was written long ago, for they have turned against our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.” (Jude4, LB)
51. “For certain men have crept in stealthily (gaining entrance secretly by a side door). Their doom was predicted long ago. By a side door.
52. Ungodly, (impious, profane) person who perverts the grace (the spiritual blessing and favour) of our God into lawlessness and wantonness and immorality, and disown and deny our Sole master and Lord, Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One)” (Jude 4, AMP)
53. If some people are ordained to the present condemnation, some must be ordained to this present justification. You should wonder how God decided to save some and destroy some.
54. “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John3:16 KJV)
55. When people read this scripture they fail to understand the meaning, by reading the interpretation from other parts of the Bible. The word of God is not for any man to give his own private interpretation.
56. “knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation” (2Peter 1:20,KJV)
57. The truth of the matter is that God from the beginning knows all that will believe Him, and all that should become His children.
58. “But there are some of you that believe not, for Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believe not, and who should betray Him” (John6:64, KJV)
59. “Yet, some of you do not believe (Jesus knew from the very beginning who were the ones that would not believe and which one would betray Him)” (John6:64 GNB)
60. “But some of you do not believe me (for Jesus knew from the beginning who did not believe and knew the one who would betray Him)”John 6:66, LB)Because he knows the end from the very beginning.
61. “But (still) some of you fail to believe and trust and have faith, for Jesus knew from the first who did not believe and had no faith and who would betray Him and be false to Him” (John 6:64, AMP)
ONCE YOU FORGET WHAT GOD HAS SPOKEN ON ANY ISSUE OR MATTER, ANY DEVELOPMENT, YOU ARE BOUND TO BECOME A VICTIM. FORGET THE INSTRUCTIONS YOU HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED ON ANY DEVELOPMENT, SURELY YOU WILL BECOME A VICTIM. REASON BEING THAT THE MOMENT YOU NEGLECT THE WORD OF GOD, YOU WILL LAND YOURSELF IN A PLACE WHERE YOU WILL REGRET YOUR LIFE, WHERE YOU WILL SAY, “IF I HAD KNOWN.”

EVERY MAN MUST GO THE WAY HE IS ORDAINED [2]
1. “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. For whom did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren
2. Moreover, whom He did predestinate, them He also called, and whom He called, them He also justified, and whom He justified, them He also glorified. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us who can be against us?” (Rom. 8:28-31, KJV)
3. “We are assured and know that (God being a partner in their labour) all things work together and are (fitting into a plan) for good to and for those who love God and are called according to (His) design and purpose. For those whom He foreknow (of whom He was aware and loved beforehand), He also destined from the beginning (foreordaining them) to be moulded into the image of His Son (and share inwardly His likeness), that He might become the firstborn among many brethren.
4. And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called and those whom He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous, putting them into right standing with Himself).
5. And those whom He justified, He also glorified (raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being). What then shall we say to (all) this? If God be for us who (can be) against us? (who can be our foe, if God is on our side)?” (Rom. 8: 28-31 AMP)
6. “And we know that all that happens to us is working for our own good if we love God and are fitting into His plans.
7. For from the very beginning God decided that those who came to Him-and all along He knew who would -should become like His son so that His Son would be the first, with many brothers.
8. And having chosen us, He called us to come to Him, and when we came, He declared us ‘not guilty’, filled us with Christ’s goodness, gave us right standing with Himself, and promised us His glory.
9. What can we ever say to such wonderful thing as these? If God is on our side who can ever be against us? (Rom. 8:28-31, LB)
10. “Long ago even before He made the world, God chose us to be His very own through what Christ would do for us, He decided then to make us holy in His eyes without a single fault-we who stand before Him covered with His love. His unchanging plan has always been to adopt us into His own family by sending Christ to die for us. And He did this because He wanted to” (Eph. 1:4-5, LB)
11. From the Bible, the truth is clear that God has decided to make us Holy in His eyes, not in the eyes of the world.
12. The world is free to call us sinners and devils, but God is seeing us as holy and righteous through what Christ has already done for us,…
13. That is why He has taken up our judgement. For God will judge the righteous, but He is angry at the wicked every minute of the day. The Bible said twenty-four hours of the day.
14. The world is free to call us sinners and devils, but God is seeing us as holy and righteous through what Christ has already done for us, and not what we have done, because no man can...
15. And that is what God wants us to appreciate by worshipping Him in spirit and in truth. For there is no love greater than that.
16. … but God is seeing us as holy and righteous through what Christ has already done for us, and not what we have done, because no man can contribute anything to his salvation, even the faith which we have is a gift from God. Thank you!
17. THAT IS WHY YOU MUST WORSHIP GOD, PRAISE HIM FOR OFFERING YOU FREE SALVATION, PAYING THE DEBT YOU COULD NOT PAY.
18. This is because all men do not have this our faith.
19. “And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men for all men have not this faith” (2 Thess. 3:2 KJV)
20. “But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith praying in the Holy Ghost” (Jude 20, KJV)
21. “I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh shall He find faith on the earth?” (Luke 18: 8,KJV)
22. My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory with respect of persons. (James 2:1, KJV)
23. “My brethren pay no servile regard to people (show no prejudice, no partiality). Do not (attempt to) hold any, practice the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Lord) of glory (together with snobbery) (James 2:1, AMP)
24. No man should question God for taking this decision to save some and to destroy some, because that is the counsel of his own will, which He purpose in Himself before the world began. Amen
25. He does that which seems right in His own eyes. And His ways are not our ways, neither His thought our thought. His counsel must stand whether we like it or not.
26. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thought than your thoughts.
27. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater, so shall My word that goeth forth out of My mouth it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isa. 55: 8-11 KJV). Amen
28. “In whom also we have obtained inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will” (Eph. 1:11, KJV)
29. “Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying My counsel shall stand and I will do all My pleasures” (Isa. 46:10, KJV). Amen
30. “The Lord of host has sworn saying, surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass, and as I have purposed so shall it stand.” (Isa. 14:24,KJV)
31. “This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth, and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the Lord of Host hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? (Isa. 14:26-27, KJV)
32. God is only mindful of His own and not the world. When Christ prayed, as recorded in the Holy Scriptures, He only made intercession for His own and not of the world.
33. “I have manifested thy name unto the men which Thou gavest Me out of the world, Thine they were and Thou gavest them Me, and they have kept Thy word. Now they have known that all things whatsoever Thou hast given Me are of thee.
34. For I have given unto them Thy words, which Thou gavest Me, and they have known surely that I come out from Thee, and they have believed that Thou didst send Me. I pray for them I pray not for the world, but for them which Thou has given Me, for they are Thine” (John 17:6-9. KJV)
35. “I have given them Thy word, and the world have hated them, because, they are not of the world even as I am not of the world. I pray not that Thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that Thou shouldest keep them from evil.
36. They are not of the world even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through Thy truth. Thy word is truth. As Thou hast sent Me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.(John 17:14-18 KJV)
37. Although we are in the world we are still God’s children. He knows all of us and can call us by our names. The same way, we know Him, and can recognise Him, through His voice.
38. Though the market place be filled with noise, the voice of your father appears and sounds very distinct. Any child that cannot recognise the voice of his father is a bastard.
39. “Known unto God are all His works from the beginning of the world. (Acts 15:18, KJV).
40. “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” (Eph. 2:10,KJV)
41. But ye believe not because ye are not of My sheep. You believe not because you are not of My sheep.
42. But ye believe not because ye are not of My sheep as I said unto you. My sheep hear My voice and I know them and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
43. My father which gave them Me, is greater than all and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father’s hand.” (John 10: 26-29, KJV)
44. But you do not believe and trust and rely on Me because you do not belong to My fold (you are no sheep of mine).
45. The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice, and I know them and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages. Amen
46. To all eternity they shall never…TO ALL ETERNITY THEY SHALL NEVER BY ANY MEANS. To all eternity they shall never by any means be destroyed. By any means be destroyed. By any means? Be destroyed.
47. Be it by flood, fire, bomb, thunder, hurricane or typhoon, THEY CAN NEVER, BY ANY MEANS, BE DESTROYED. Let the world turn up-side-down. Let aeroplane crash, it is not for them. And no one is able to snatch them out of my hand.
48. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater and mightier than all (else) and no one is able to snatch (them) out of the Father’s hand” (John 10: 26-27, AMP). NOTHING WILL EVER MAKE THEM LOOSE THEIR CONVICTION.
49. “But you will not believe for you are not of My sheep. My sheep listen to My voice, I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never die.
50. No one can snatch them away from Me, what My Father has given Me is greater than everything, and no one can snatch them away from the Father’s care” (John 10: 26-27 GNB).
51. “But you do not believe Me because you are not part of My flock. My sheep recognises My voice and I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.
52. No one shall snatch them away from Me. For My Father has given them to Me and He is more powerful than anyone else, so no one can kidnap them from Me” (John 10: 26-27, LB)
53. “Nevertheless, the foundation of God standest sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are His. And let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity” (2Timothy 2: 19, KJV).
54. DEPART FROM ANY CONDEMNABLE ACT, EVERY CONDEMNABLE ACT, WHETHER IN SERVICE OR WORSHIP, IN ANY FORM OR SHAPE.
55. ONCE IT IS ILLEGAL IN THE SIGHT OF GOD, UNAPPROVED, RUNS CONTRARY TO HIS RULES AND INSTRUCTIONS, IT IS A CONDEMNABLE DECISION, CONDEMNABLE ACTION, CONDEMNABLE WORSHIP, CONDEMNABLE SERVICE; CONDEMNABLE UTTERANCE, CONDEMNABLE RELATIONSHIP.
56. TODAY MY PEOPLE ARE DAILY MIS-MATING WITH THE HEATHENS TAKING THEM FOR WIVES. AND TOMORROW, THEY WILL LOOK UNTO ME FOR HELP, WHEN THEY HAVE FLAGRANTLY NEGLECTED MY COUNSEL, NEGLECTED MY ORDINANCES AND INSTRUCTIONS, TREATED MY WORD WITH DISDAIN.
57. AND TOMORROW, WHEN CALAMITY BEFALLS THEM, THEY WILL BE CALLING MY NAME FOR HELP. I RESERVE MY COMMENT. LET US CONTINUE.
58. Nothing can pluck any elect out of God’s hand till eternity. Sure.
59. This is the perfect will and counsel of God, and it must stand.
60. Anybody fighting against it is wasting his time. Let them say whatever they want to say, and call us whatever they want to call us, the truth is that we the true sons and daughters of God. And that now we have eternal life. The kingdom of God belongs to us. And now we have what? Eternal life. The Kingdom of God belongs to us forever. Amen.
61. 68“No one, regardless of how shrewd or well-advised he is, can stand against the Lord” (Prov. 21: 30, LB).
62. In conclusion, I wish to remind all and sundry in this most holy faith, that there is no competition in destiny. If God has destined you to hell fire or to heaven, you cannot change it at all.
63. So people do not go to hell fire because they are the worst sinners, neither do people go to heaven because they worked harder for it more than others to obtain their righteousness.
64. Everything was concluded before the world began and we are only made manifest to manifest whatever we are made up of. No more, no less.
65. “And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, whither shall we go forth? Then shall tell them, thus saith the Lord, such as are for death to death, and such as are for sword, to the sword, and such as to the famine, to the famine, and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity”(Jer. 15:2, KJV)
66. “He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity, he that killeth with the sword, must be killed with the sword. Here the patience and faith of the saints.” (Rev. 13:10,KJV)
67. “All things are decided by fate; it was known long ago what each man would be. So there’s no use arguing with God –about your destiny” (Eccl.6:10, LB)
68. Rewind!“All thing are decided by fate; it was known long ago what each man would be. So there’s no use arguing with God –about your destiny” (Eccl.6:10, LB)
69. This is consolation of all the saints of God. Praise the Lord. Amen.76God bless you all. Amen!!
70. I invite Apostle Orjiakor to the pulpit to give us water to swallow the pill. If the pill is hanging on your throat, water will be given to you to drive it down to your stomach. It should not be hanging. If it is hanging, it is hanging in the throat of make believers, hypocrites, unbelievers. Amen.
YOUR SALVATION IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS [1]
BY
APOSTLE LUKE ORJIAKOR
The Lord is giving a command: diligently obey my Word for obedience is better than sacrifice. When God was reprimanding the people of Israel, He said to them, “When I delivered you from the land of Egypt, did I tell you to perform a sacrifice unto Me? What did I tell you? hearken and obey my Word. Before you can do anything to God, first of all make sure that you have obeyed Me.” What does it profit us to kick against the truth? The sin of rebellion is in us. The sin of witchcraft is in us. Every time we will be saying that the Church is bewitched, when there are a lot of witches and wizards sitting down in the Church benches.
OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE; Preached on29TH JULY 1994; Pg. 78 vs. 24 – 25

YOUR SALVATION IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS [1]
1. Brethren can we put our hands together for the Almighty God. This is love in action. The love of God is greater far than all tongues, all pens can say and write. We thank God for His love. If you love God, show God that you love Him. Sacrifice out of love. Let your heart be filled with love, with appreciation of the magnitude of love of God bestowed upon you.
2. Genesis chapter 8. We read in the four versions verse 18 through 21.
3. And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him: every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
4. And Noah builded an altar unto the Lord; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
5. And the Lord smelled a sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth: neither will I again smite any more everything living, as I have done. KJV
6. Amplified. And Noah went forth, and his wife and his sons and their wives with him [after being in the ark one year and ten days].
7. Every beast, every creeping thing, every bird–and whatever moves on the land–went forth by families out of the ark.
8. And Noah built an altar to the Lord and took of every clean [four-footed] animal and of every clean fowl or bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
9. When the Lord smelled the pleasing odour [a scent of satisfaction to His heart], the Lord said to Himself,
10. When the Lord did what? Smelled the pleasing odour. When the Lord smelled the pleasing odour.
11. When the Lord smelled the pleasing odour [a scent of satisfaction to His heart], the Lord said to Himself, I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination (the strong desire) of man’s heart is evil and wicked from his youth; neither will I ever again smite and destroy every living thing, as I have done.
12. Remember the Scripture said, “But Noah found favour in the sight of the Lord and after the deluge, Noah and his family alone survived with all the animals.
13. Noah saw it that he never laboured. Noah saw the magnitude of the love of God in his life, the mercy of God in his life. Of all that God created upon the earth, he and his family alone were spared.
14. Noah did what? In an act of appreciation, he took of the clean animals and offered unto God.
15. And then God smelled a sweet savour and God became happy. God said He would not do this type of thing again.
16. It is just like this young man Phinehas. If you check the book of Numbers chapter 25, Phinehas [because he felt the love of God in his heart], saw how Israel was going awhoring, he said, “No!”
17. Seeing an abomination in the camp of the people of God, he took his javelin and he thrust through the Israelite, a man named Zimri and a midianite woman, Cozbi. I mean a Gentile, an uncircumcised. And that rolled away the anger of the Almighty God.
18. Brethren, God has given us everything and I just want us to read something. God has given us everything. What we heard from Him which He told us 1993, 1994 and1995 are coming to pass.
19. AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE, VOLUME 1Chapter one is titled “Seed of Discrepancy” on page 8 from verse 1 to 3.
20. Remain bless brethren, I really felt it is necessary I speak to you concerning developments from many of you, more especially as we wait at the gate of paradise. I am not pleading with anybody as far as salvation is concerned.
21. Did we hear that? God said I am not pleading with anybody as far as salvation is concerned.
22. I have explained to all of you what salvation is about and why human beings need salvation. I have given you the whole truth as I received it from God, all to get you firmly established in the Faith so that you will be saved on that day when salvation shall be made complete. I can never force it on you. No! If you are saved in the end, I gain nothing. That salvation belongs to you; you are the one that will enjoy it.
23. At the same time also, if as a result of your wilful disobedience to the truth you find yourself in hell fire, you are also the one that will suffer it there, for I lose nothing. Neither do I gain anything. For that reason, the Son of Man will no longer trouble Himself. As for whether you are going to be saved or not, your salvation is now in your hand.
24. And he said, “Onitsha, pay attention to Me. And all from other Local Assemblies, equally pay attention. Go home and wait for instruction. Do not ever say you are patterning after Onitsha.” Now Onitsha had gone back to their homes.
25. God said, Your salvation is now in your hands.” You are in your home. You are in your family. Whatever you want your family to be, it is now for you to give it to your family, but not that you are left without being fully equipped. For He has given us everything.
26. Brethren, nobody has any excuse. Let me tell you. Let me say it the way it is. We know that the wife of Lot perished because she did not keep pace.
27. THE LORD SPEAKS: Lot thought he was walking with the wife. He never knew the heart of the wife was in the world. Materialism! And she perished with the world.
28. Having come out of Sodom and Gomorrah, on the way what was happening in her hindered her.
29. THE LORD SPEAKS: Remember she was the one that caused Lot to delay, which made the angels to drag all of them out by their hands and out of the city.
30. She did not continue. They were dragged out of the city. She perished outside the city. Run! Do not look back. The man was running with his eyes in front, together with his daughters, not knowing that the woman stopped there.
31. I want to chip in something. Many have stopped walking with their husbands long ago. And God is going to expose them now. Many have stopped their race long ago. Only their mere bodies, empty bodies are coming to Fellowship. They are disgusted. They do not want to express it, but they are going to be exposed. Such hypocrisy can no longer be hidden. Good.
32. It has been hidden for long. Are you not hearing your name? What actually is needed? Remember God said, “The greatest favour God will show a man, a woman is bringing the person, pointing the person back to the Word of God which the person has neglected, refused to take.
33. THE LORD SPEAKS: And which the person never obeyed. And that is where the problem the person is having will be coming from.
34. So what should be your attitude and my attitude? Now it is clear. You would not say again, The voice or the Word of the Son of Man takes some time before it comes to pass. But now, as it is being spoken, you see it coming to pass.
35. And now He has brought out everything to the fore and to the limelight. What should be your attitude?
36. Remember the prodigal son. When he saw that he was wasting away, he spoke to himself. He came to his senses. He realized. He understood that continuing where he was, he will perish there.
37. Remember David, when he was being lured away from focusing on the Almighty God. When he was being carried away by the riches of the world. On coming into the house of God, he thought on his ways. He saw that he was just a step between him and death. What did he do? He ran back.
38. Why don’t we run back to Him? Why don’t we run back to the Almighty? Back to the Word. Remember it has always been that. Back to the word. Back to the word. So it is important.
39. Have you drawn a line? Is it that you are a serpent seed? You are not of God. Ask yourself the question. Can God speak in vain? God is Truth. Let every man be a lair. God is Truth. Think about it.
40. So you see! Look at Lot. Look at Noah. Why is it that Noah found favour in the sight of God? He did everything possible.
41. Just look at Abraham as well, whom God himself declared and said He knew him and that he [Abraham] will command his entire household to obey God.
42. Therefore, he will never never hide anything from Abraham. Why don’t you assume that nature of Abraham? Myself, the same thing.
43. If you have assumed it, consolidate it more and more, you husbandman of the house. Myself the same. What are you going to do? What are you going to feed the flock with?
44. In your house, have you fed yourself? Remember what we read from chapter two of WE ARE SERVING THE LIVING GOD. A living God. I say, The Living God.
45. Quoting the Message ARISE AND EAT FOR THE JOURNEY IS STILL TOO FAR, He said, Eat the Word for a time is coming, when it is what you have gathered, what you have eaten that will sustain you when you get back to your homes.”
46. When it pleases the Almighty God to usher us back to our different homes, it is with what you have gathered that you will pastor your family. And God kept on hammering this morning saying, What are you going to pastor with?”
47. Now concerning Lot, can we say that Lot didn’t the much he should do? But he did not know the wife had drawn a line.
48. Remember, we are having and are in a better covenant than that they of old had.
49. If actually we are serious with what God is doing in our midst, and His calls in our lives, my entire family is looking unto me, and I must bring all A to Z to obedience to the Word of God. All must worship my God. Therefore, starting from my wife down to everybody in my household, this decision must be taken.
50. And then the Word will be given raw as it is, that the hypocrisy will be exposed. A loving father will not be happy to see any of the children lost or the wife lost.
51. It is a must-do assignment. It is a MUST. He said, “The word of God must be enforced by force.” This is what God expects from every one of us. Do not say, My wife is stubborn. She does not obey. Therefore, let her perish.” Is it?
52. Bye and bye, the membership is given to you. They must rise up. Enforce it. The stubborn person must obey even when wrapped in the person’s burial mat. Must!
53. God has said it over and over. We read it here and there many, many Messages, If you are quiet, you do not want your neighbour to hear your voice. Then you keep quiet. You are a dumb dog.”
54. Therefore, in the end, who will carry the blame? You. We must all rise up. So do not ever say, This child is stubborn. This one is stubborn. I have done this or that. Sit up! You have not done enough.
55. God said, I have not done my best until I have achieved My best.” He said, “I have given you the whole truth as I received it from God, all to get you firmly established in the Faith so that you will be saved on that last days.
56. AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE, VOLUME 1 Pg. 9 vs. 3…For that reason, the Son of Man will no longer trouble himself as to whether you are going to be save or not. Your salvation is now in your hand. All that you need to get you saved have been given to you.
57. All that we need. So now, He said, You stay in your homes because events have forced us to be in our homes, starting from Onitsha.”
58. Now Onitsha, you are now in your homes on Wednesday. And He said, All that we need to be saved, they all have been given to us.
59. In other words, nobody has any excuse, nobody, nobody. It is very very necessary. I get to verse 4.
60. AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE, VOLUME 1 Pg. 9 vs 4 Hence the time when you are being fooled into thinking that you are worshipping or serving the Son of man or My interest is over.
61. It is all over. Thus, be very careful from now. If you want to stray away, stray away.
62. THE LORD SPEAKS: Amen. Amen.
63. He said, It is now that everybody will be exposed for what he is, for what she is.
64. IF YOU WANT TO ORGANISE YOUR FAMILY VERY WELL ESPOUSE EVERYBODY TO THE FEAR AND REVERENCE OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD. IT IS NOW
This faith has taught us to be humble, to be polite, and also accept correction, because accepting correction means advancement. Nobody can claim to be a repository of all knowledge. This faith has taught us to be tidy, and neat. So, if you are carrying your filthiness as it is known among your people into this Faith, you have not entered this Faith. If anybody is in Christ, he becomes a brand new person with a new vision, a new awakening, and a new life all together.

YOUR SALVATION IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS [2]
1. THE LORD SPEAKS: We received a Message that SALVATION OF GOD GOES TO FAMILIES in the Message I handled at Nsukka, a night preceding Bro Sam’s wedding, AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH (MYSTERY REVEALED).
2. Yes sir. All in your hands. All in my hands. No begging, no persuasion “Brother help me”, not in this matter anymore. Son of Man, I am in your hands! not in this matter anymore for everything has been clearly spelt out before you. Finish.
3. God made it clear even in the old testament that on that day when salvation shall be made complete, though Daniel might be there [to intercede], Noah might be there [because of his righteousness], Job might be there, they will all save only but themselves. They will never save a soul from their families for any soul that sinneth must surely die.
4. You child born in the family, boy or girl, I hope you heard that? That the righteous man Noah, Job, Daniel, though any of them be there or all of them be there, what will they do?
5. They will only save their own souls because you are no longer a baby. You have received the Message. You have said amen to it. What is being looked for is your implementation, my implementation of all you have said amen to. If you do not do it, it is for your condemnation. If you do it, it is for your salvation.
6. Remember it was man, the first man not doing what he was asked to do that led the entire world into a horrible condition. The same disobedience he is hammering against.
7. THE LORD SPEAKS: Sure! Obedience is better than Sacrifice. If you are not ready to obey the Word of God, you are not willing to obey, do not comply. Obey, do not comply. When you are not willing, do not render any sacrifice. The Gospel has been revealed as hard truth.
8. Pay attention. From a Message that come from Almighty: WHY WE DO NOT USE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IN THE CHURCH OF GOD: PART 6.That was a Ministers Meeting where God gave us a Message titled THUS SAITH THE LORD CAN NO LONGER BE PROLONGED. That was preached on 9th February 1997 by our former Evangelist Ignatius Anonye from Abuja during the Camp Meeting here.
9. WHY WE DO NOT USE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IN THE CHURCH OF GOD: PART 6.Page 84 from verse 9.
10. All these are well known to all of us. He has spoken in diverse ways through many Ministers telling us to get ourselves prepared to be sure that nobody is left behind.
11. But what I am saying this hour is that the Word of God which we are hearing from this moment can no longer be prolonged. It can no longer delay.
12. Now God told them not that they did not believe. They believed and acknowledged that it was the Word of God. Nobody doubted it, but they only felt as usual that the prophecy is something still afar off. Nobody saw it as something that was already at his feet and how do you know the way you are holding your own?
13. It is through your character, through your actions. Your character shows whether you believe it as something that is around you or not. All the Messages you are hearing are not meant for distance time. Have it at the back of your mind that the Word can fulfil as soon as you hear. They are already here with you at your feet.
14. WHY WE DO NOT USE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IN THE CHURCH OF GOD PART 6 [MINISTER’S MEETING][Chapter 2: SET YOUR HOUSES IN ORDER]Page 88 from verse 1. We received a Message here titled SET YOUR HOUSES IN ORDER. How many of us have really set our houses in order, or do we not know that THUS SAITH THE LORD can no longer be prolonged.
15. That is why we see things happening. These are things we thought were meant for latter days but we see them happening all around us. Now that we are seeing it this way, if we were all playing before, if we were playing before, this is no longer the time for playing.
16. He never said that these people disbelieved. What He had against them was that they saw the thing as one that was afar saying, “I know this Message. I know the man of God. What he said is true, but it is something that will take a long time to happen.”
17. Therefore, such people will delay action, thinking the prophecy is for a latter time. That is why He said, “Monitor that Word that has gone out. The fulfilment followed immediately. From that hour, the voice of Ezekiel, the son of man became automatic.
18. It was no longer the type that could be waited for, for two or three days, it became instant. It was no longer it will, it shall, it may. IT IS NOW. You see, we have WATCH OUT 1994. It is no more, “Watch Out The Last Pentecost.” it is no more watching. It is no more Counting or Countdown. It is now LAST. This is because the Word of God does not tarry any longer.
19. Now that you are seeing the whole thing unfolding, do not think you are still watching or counting. All the Messages God handed down or handed over to us, all that we have been taught, how do we take them?
20. All the Messages God handed down to us. All that we have been taught, the question is: How do we take them?
21. You see, we have to do things hastily because time is no more. Watch out! Before you ask for one thing, looking out in the paper. You will see the whole thing clear.
22. You ask for something, you get the one that is in your heart there. You see the whole thing coming out instantly. If it is so, what have you done with the instructions God has given to you?
23. WHY WE DO NOT USE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IN THE CHURCH OF GOD PART 6 [MINISTER’S MEETING]Page 93 from verse 23. “Therefore say unto them, “Thus saith the LORD God, there shall none of my word be prolonged anymore, for the word which I have spoken shall be done saith the Lord God.
24. You see, because the people did not carry out the instruction speedily as they were supposed to do, God watching them, had to instruct the Son of Man to tell them that His words will no longer prolong.
25. He watched the people, saw that they believed, but noticed that they were sluggish in carrying out the instruction for they thought the prophecy was for a later date.
26. Many of them sat down and felt they still had a lot time here on earth. God watching the camp watching every sister, watching every brother, had to send forth a Message, “Son of man tell them that these things are not for a far time. They will happen instantly.”
27. Page 95 from verse 30. GOD HAS SEEN YOU IN YOUR HOMES. WHAT? GOD HAS SEEN YOU SITTING IN YOUR HOMES.
28. THE LORD SPEAKS: Put your hands together. He [God] has seen you sitting in your home. It pays to be in a prophetic Ministry. Where there is no prophet from God people worship in blindness. They worship in blindness.
29. For the Voice of the Bridegroom will be hidden from among them. Nobody will hear from God and speak to them. People will be racking their senses using their senses and imagination, using their feelings translating them as if they are THUS SAITH THE LORD, sowing seed of discrepancies among their brethren but it is not so in the Bride of Christ. The difference is clear.
30. WHY WE DO NOT USE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IN THE CHURCH OF GOD PART 6 [MINISTER’S MEETING] Page 95 verse 30 God has seen you in your homes, in your private places etc. He has seen the way you are carrying out what you have received and He has come out to warn you that “Thus Saith The LORD cannot fail. Neither will it prolong.
31. You should be ready for it will comes at a time you think not. Watch out! That is why He was against His servant. The servant heard the Voice of the Lord, believed the Voice but felt it was going to take a long time to happen.
32. He played away his time. He even played hypocrisy until the master came in at an hour he least expected. What lured him? He believed his master quite alright. He did not doubt Him but for the fact that he thought the man would not come back so soon he went ahead playing until the man came and met him at an hour he knew not. The Bible said the master gave him his portion among the hypocrites
33. Christ said, “My duty is to do the will of God and finish it.”If you are doing the will of God, the question is “Have you finished it?
34. THE LORD SPEAKS: Have you finished it? 38 Christ said, “My duty is to do the will of God and finish it.” If you are doing the will of God, the question is “Have you finished it? Finishing it means the last word M.U.S.T be obeyed.
35. Let me tell you. Maybe I may read it. It said, Our obedience to the Word of God is our perfection. Our obedience to the Word of God is our perfection.” So doing the will of God and finishing it is obeying every word God has given us.
36. Then your righteousness will be perfected. You see what I was saying. Your righteousness will be perfected. But if you are obeying or setting the thing in order, or you miss one thing there, there can never be perfection.
37. You do not neglect it. Neglecting it will only end up disqualifying you. It is only but one fall. Unto you, it does not matter. That one fall matters. I am speaking in types. So it matters.
38. Everything that everyone is supposed to do, he has known it already. So that nobody will rise up and say, “What and what will I do to set my place in order?”
39. It is just as we heard it from the Message AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE that He has given us everything we need for salvation.
40. Everything that everyone is supposed to do, he has known it already. So that nobody will rise up and say, “What and what will I do to set my place in order?”
41. The Lord will place it in their heart. Then what one ought to do to set his place in order will be well known. He would not say, “I did not know.”
42. You cannot say you did not know. He said, “After all, the Word is in your heart and in my heart, so that when the word of faith will speak, nobody will make noise, “It is on top of the mountain. Who will climb the mountain and bring it to us? He said, “It is here with us.” Has He not taught us?
43. You cannot rise up and say, “I do not know this. I do not know that, for God has already said, “I will set it in their heart, all thy works from the old to the present’’.
44. THE LORD SPEAKS: That is the much I want to take from that Message go home and read it.
AT THIS PERIOD OF WAITING, LOTS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE MUST WANDER AWAY FROM THE BOUNDARY WHERE GOD’S LOVE CANNOT REACH THEM AND BRING THEM BACK. THEY WILL WANDER, CROSS INTO THE REGION OF THE LOST, POINT OF NO RETURN. HOW? THEY DID NOT UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT WAS ASSIGNED TO THEM WAS GREATER THAN MOSES, GREATER THAN JESUS, GREATER THAN ALL. THAT WAS WHY HE WARNED THEM, “PROVOKE HIM NOT TO WRATH FOR HE WILL NEVER EVER PARDON YOUR TRANSGRESSION FOR HE IS IN YOUR MIDST AS THE ANGEL OF JUDGMENT WHO WILL STOP AT NOTHING UNTIL RIGHTEOUSNESS REIGNS UPON THE EARTH AND EYES WILL SEE HIS GLORY. WHO WILL NEVER BE TIRED OR GET DISCOURAGED BY DAY OR BY NIGHT.”

THE BASIS OF OUR FAITH
1. THE BASIS OF OUR FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 18th October, 2015 at the household of God Onitsha by Almighty God, The Son of man, Apostle Peter Odoemena (Glory be to His holy Name) The Supreme Intelligence.
2. Page 84 verse 56.I AM NOT LOOKING AT YOU FROM THE NUMBER OF YEARS YOU HAVE STAYED WITH US HERE. I AM NOT LOOKING AT YOU FROM THE NUMBER OF YEARS YOU HAVE STAYED WITH US HERE. BUT I AM CONSIDERING YOUR KNOWLEDGE, YOUR SPIRITUAL MATURITY. THAT IS WHAT I AM CONSIDERING.
3. THE LORD SPEAKS: YOUR SPIRITUAL STAND. Did we hear it this morning? Look at where it was documented ahead of time.
4. Do not ever allow anybody to intimidate you by telling you that you do not know anything about the faith and that he is the head of this Faith.
5. That is what I am saying. This person you are revering because of the number of years he or she has stayed in this faith may not know anything about this Faith.
6. THE LORD SPEAKS: Amen! The person may be ordinary empty vessel only counting when he identified with this fellowship, but the word has never for one day settled in his heart and you are only respecting the person because you felt he was here before you came. He washere from the very official beginning when nothing has ever happened to his life.
7. He or she does not know, does not even know what 2+2=4 means in this Faith. He may drink, he may talk, supervise everything but does not know anything about the faith.
8. THE LORD SPEAKS: He may do what?
9. He may drink; he may talk, supervise everything but does not know anything about the faith.
10. THE LORD SPEAKS: He may be Pastor. He may be Apostle. He may be Deacon. He may be Elder. He may be Bishop courtesy of his long stay, but knows nothing about the Faith of Christ.
11. You see why where we read said, “Have not the Faith of Christ with respect of persons.” But you see the person making a hell of noise. You begin to give him unnecessary respect.
12. And he will be using his long stay to cow you down and to intimidate you. If you ask him why, he will tell you that he was living with the Son of Man, sleeping with him in the wilderness in 1990. Is that enough? After sleeping with the Son of man, what did you learn from him? What did you learn from Him?
13. He or she does not even know what 2+2=4 means in this Faith. He may drink, talk, supervise everything but does not know anything about the Faith.
14. THE LORD SPEAKS: REMEMBER WHAT GOD TOLD YOU. HE SAID THAT ANY NEW PERSON THAT IS ADMITTED IS TAKING ANOTHER MAN’S SEAT.
15. God is not bringing in anything but He is doing replacement and that you might be here, when your number has been removed. Somebody is sitting on that number not you.
16. It does not stop you from coming here. HE IS DOING REPLACEMENT NO LONGER RECRUITMENT. I told you when my boat was filled to the brim that I was carrying excess load. And I told you what I will be doing. The cloud is still here.
17. Brethren we are in a real delicate Faith How we ought to be careful.
18. THE LORD SPEAKS: It was announced that we are in a delicate faith where you can fall away without knowing.
19. One that enlisted into the faith yesterday knows more than that fellow.
20. THE LORD SPEAKS: Sure!
21. One that came into the faith yesterday, with a pure heart and dedication is by far better than such a fellow.
22. THE LORD SPEAKS: Ancient men by mouth!
23. After all, the extent you surrender your life to God is the extent God is going to use you. Somebody who cannot study to show himself approved unto God, a workman that needs not be ashamed, but rightly dividing the word of truth.
24. 61But constantly, he will give himself over to eating and drinking, to silly talks, to unnecessary perambulating. How can you concentrate on the things of God? There is no miracle in what God is doing. I say there is no miracle in what God is doing.
25. If you are serving the interest of God, you know. If you are serving your personal interest, you know. Some do not even have divine anointing before they come here. Their revival is only in the fellowship. Outside the fellowship, the revival dies. The light will die off.
26. 63I have been thinking seriously and one of these days, I will implement it. Let me know who is who. I want to ban all brethren, man and woman.
27. THE LORD SPEAKS:I want to do what?
28. Ban all brethren.
29. THE LORD SPEAKS: Place a ban on all Brethren man and woman that use to come to fellowship in Onitsha from outside. Pay attention.
30. And I have been thinking seriously and one of these days, I will implement it. Let me know who is who.
31. I want to ban all brethren man and woman, young and old from other local assemblies from coming to Onitsha for fellowship.
32. THE LORD SPEAKS: There are many that come from other Local Assemblies that are having problems with their own Local Assemblies. They do not see eye to eye with their fellow Brethren, man and woman.
33. They may use Onitsha as a cloak to cover hates, to cover avarice, to cover even every kind of division they are causing there, seed of discrepancy.
34. But when they come here, they give the impression they are one, but they can neverfellowship together in unity, in love in their Local Assemblies, one picking hole with another. Even their sisters, the same thing. But they use this place as a cloak to cover up.
35. “Thank God for Onitsha. If not for Onitsha, I would have abandoned this Faith.” You have already abandoned the Faith. “Thank God, it is only in Onitsha that I will come and I will receive the engrafted Word of God.” What are they preaching there? If they are preaching another Message, why not correct them.
36. If your house is on fire and you run away to take refuge in another man’s house, have you quenched the fire? Pay attention to these prophecies.
37. Do not say it will be painful.
38. THE LORD SPEAKS: Do not say it will be painful, if He bans us from coming.
39. 64Do not say it will be painful. It will not be painful. It will reveal who you are. It is becoming a problem I can no longer condone. So in no distance time,
40. THE LORD SPEAKS: Raise that one. Raise your voice there.
41. So in no distance time,…
42. THE LORD SPEAKS: THUS SAITH THE LORD can no longer be delayed. So in no distance time, you will be hearing this stammering voice from a distance.
43. I told you whenever the Almighty settled the vessel in a place, it is for a purpose. Whenever He gets up from that ash heap, heaven and earth will know that the hand of God was behind it. He wanted him to settle down for a purpose that shall be made known through His Word.
44. So, in no distance time, I may come up with an order.
45. THE LORD SPEAKS: You heard it this morning, give ear to what you are hearing from the Son of Man. Go home! Do not do anything and an order will come to you from the Son of Man. Until he gives you instruction, do not ever do anything. But for Onitsha, pay heed.
46. At this point,[the generator went off alongside the P.A system.]IT IS THE SIGN. WHATEVER HAPPENS HERE IS A SIGN. THIS IS A SIGN. EVERYBODY WILL GO BACK TO HIS OR HER HOUSE VERY SOON.
47. THE LORD SPEAKS: What?
48. EVERYBODY WILL GO BACK TO HIS OR HER HOUSE VERY SOON.
49. THE LORD SPEAKS: Get what?
50. GET YOURSELF READY! I AM JUST GIVING NOTICE.
51. Get yourself ready!
52. THE LORD SPEAKS: I am just giving what? Notice! To be forewarned is to be forearmed. The notice was given to you in 2015. To Onitsha, the notice was given to the General Assembly starting from 1993 from the very official beginning. To you that used to come here, you that are sitting down here from other Local Assemblies, do not deny that you never got the notice.
53. I refreshed your minds this morning. God is always mindful of His Word, so that you stop thinking that coming here, you are doing God a service. You are not doing Me any service. You are doing yourself a service. We will know who is who very soon.
54. At a time we never expect, an order will come.
55. THE LORD SPEAKS: At a time you do not expect, what will come? Order will come. What if it comes today? What if by the time you reach your house today, you receive my template as alert through your Ministers?
56. So that if you have anything personal, you can come and see the son of man. Otherwise, stay where you are. Anytime you want to see Him is the time He will like to see you, or else park it.
57. Everywhere appears to be tensed. Is it going to be painful? Is it going to be painful? You are all insincere. Bro. Orjiakor will it be painful? Will it be painful?
58. Well! Well! Sir, it will be painful, but God said it will not be painful. So, there I stand.
59. THE LORD SPEAKS: What if I show you the prophecy, One of these days, all of you will go to your various houses, and the Son of Man shall be left alone. And I am not alone, for my God who has been with Me will abide with me. Amen.
60. Guard up your loins. Whenever a battle is about to be decided, heads are bound to roll. The moment the fellowship has gone back home. It has started gradually.
61. I do not want to say what the Bible said concerning Noah, but nevertheless you read it. Noah and his family entered the ark at the command of the Lord and remained in the ark for one year and ten days. They remained in the ark eating the food they packed and everything. The ark was locked.
62. Nobody could enter. Nobody could go out, for one year and ten days. Look at it in your Bible. Nobody even accused him of deceiving them. “Why locking us inside this place?”
63. People started blaspheming Noah and his family, Ah! This man is wicked. He has killed all the members of his family. Look at the way he locked them up, nobody is coming out and nobody is going in. This man must be mad. Locking his wife and his children. Even his children and their own wives.” It is there in your Bible.
64. So that when you go home, you do not expect that when you go home you vanish. The journey is still too long, for the Voice said, You may stay long at the gate. So, take extra oil.”
65. BE PATIENCE WITH GOD. GOD IS NEVER IN A HASTE. FOR HE SAID WE MUST REMAIN THERE UNTIL ALL UNBELIEVERS, MAKE BELIEVERS, HYPOCRITES WILL BE SHOWN THE WAY OUT.
66. AND THIS IS THE TIME WE SHALL SEE THEM IN HUNDREDS. FOR GOD SAID, I AM IN THE BUSINESS OF TRIMMING DOWN THE CROWD, SO THAT THE REAL ELECT MIGHT BE MADE MANIFEST.
67. If there is anything that will bring you to Onitsha, it will only be business. It will not be to worship God. IT WILL BE AN ORDER. I CAN ONLY WARN YOU.
68. THE LORD SPEAKS: It will be what? An order. I am only warning you ahead of time. I know many have forgotten this prophecy, but has God forgotten? Amen.
69. Some will say praise God. Maybe because of the road. It is not road. Because of this and that. Na lie. Na lie! Look at the year. 2015.
70. If there is anything that will bring you to Onitsha, it will be business. It will not be to worship God. It will be an order. I am only warning you. I am only warning you. If you know that person you are running away from in your Local Assembly, you will now be meeting the person every day.
71. THE LORD SPEAKS: Put your hands together brethren.
72. The person may be a Minster. A minister whose face you do not want to see. You can never sit on the same bench with him. You cannot even interchange visit or greetings with pure heart. So the best place you think you can run to is Onitsha.
73. The person may be a minister, the person may be a fellow Brother, the person may be a Sister. There is a reason or someone they are running away from in their Local Assemblies. If you think that when you run to this place that the trouble has ended, it is a lie.
74. THE LORD SPEAKS: It is what? A lie. Selling off a dog to buy a monkey does not change the fact that an animal that squats is still in the house. FEAR GOD. HE KNOWS ALL THINGS.
Any moment from now, people will travel long distances for the anointing. Many will spend money to receive the anointing because I will not confer the power upon anybody. I will never confer the authority upon any being. It is My sole authority and I will save whosoever I will. I will not beg you to come to Me for salvation. If you need security, you are to beg Me. I will not beg you. All these years, I have begged, but today, I will no longer beg. I would say a few things. No matter where you are, make sure you are taking note of this message. This day is a very important day to Me and to all that love their lives. Events are made clear by prophecy. The Igbo people say that the cripple does not fall victim of an announced war. Events are made clear by prophecy.

NOW SALVATION GOES TO FAMILIES
1. DO NOT PLAY WITH GOD’S INSTRUCTION preached on 19th May, 2013 at the Household of God Onitsha by the Almighty God, Apostle Peter Odoemena the Rock of Ages. Page 59
2. CHAPTER 2: NOBODY IS GETTING SAVED ANYMORE. LET IT BE KNOWN TO YOU THAT OUR TIME IN THIS HALL HAS EXPIRED. MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND ME BEFORE YOU WRITE. OUR STAY IN THIS HALL HAS EXPIRED; THIS DOOR MAY BE CLOSED AGAINST YOU ANY OF THESE DAYS.
3. IF IT COMES TO THE POINT THAT YOU MUST GO HOME AND REMAIN IN YOUR HOUSES AND WORSHIP GOD AS FAMILIES, PLEASE, OBEY.
4. THE LORD SPEAKS: Please obey! The Lord our God can do nothing but He revealth His secret to His servant the prophet. [Amos 3:7]You do not need a prophet to tell you that this place is becoming more and more uncomfortable for us. Why?
5. He has accomplished the mission. He said the whole thing will end here. Valley of Decision. Has it not come to an end? He said, “By the time the Son of Man shall be revealing himself to the whole world, it is all over, the Bride must have been sealed in. He said it is not going for their salvation but for their condemnation.
6. Nobody is coming in anymore. You can come to fellowship but you are not in the Ark. SON OF MAN CLOSE THE BOOK SEAL THE TESTIMONY.
7. Now salvation goes to families. It is for you and even for children that are yet unborn, for they belong to the royal blood. Not the heathen women o! When I said you, I mean the Elect, those that were chosen for salvation.
8. IF IT COMES TO THE POINT THAT YOU MUST GO HOME AND REMAIN IN YOUR HOUSES AND WORSHIP GOD AS FAMILIES, PLEASE OBEY. I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE VERY PAINFUL.
9. THE LORD SPEAKS: I know it is going to be very painful. Why playing hypocrisy then? I asked you that question Will it be painful? Some were limping between two opinions, but they know the truth.
10. This is because to the real Elect of God, whenever they gather, the love among them, uniting them does not permit them to part.
11. What is more? The anointing that flows from the presence of God whenever we gather does not make us remember we are human beings on earth. We forget our sorrows, our pains, our woes. We do not feel like going home any more.
12. But the moment we get out there and behold the world again, we feel like vomiting. And you want to tell me it would not be painful when you will be on your own. Go to the Message titled, ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE? Page 46 from verse 19.
13. You have not finished where I quoted and I am turning to another one. Oh! You have it on the pulpit. Finish where I gave you before.
14. IF IT COMES TO THE POINT THAT YOU MUST GO HOME AND REMAIN IN YOUR HOMES AND WORSHIP GOD AS FAMILIES, PLEASE OBEY. I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE VERY PAINFUL, BUT THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.
15. THE LORD SPEAKS: For the mouth of the Lord has spoken and His counsel must stand.
16. I WILL NOT MAKE EVERYTHING PUBLIC. The Elders know what I am saying.
17. THE LORD SPEAKS: I will not make everything public. Everything will not be made “opendential”. The elders will do what? They know what I am saying. ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE Page 46 from verse 19.
18. That was how it happened during the time of John the Baptist. They were also waiting for Elijah. What they heard was that ‘he has come, he has gone.’ This is how they will say.
19. What is killing them? It is because there is an interpretation they are giving it. They do not know that the word of God is of no private interpretation. God is the perfect interpreter of His word. Amen.
20. AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE VOLUME 1, page 18. We read it in the morning. God announced it. Verse 25 through 27.
21. As we wait at the gate of paradise, I am saying that a dangerous spirit has crept into the hearts of many. I can see the type of spirit that was in operation in the year 2000 where brethren separated into many camps and each camp had their preaching and teaching which were contrary to what the Spirit of God was saying, and the thing happened immediately I left for a missionary assignment at Enugu-Ezike, Nsukka, Opi and the rest of them.
22. What is more? While I was on the missionary assignment, I never knew that down at Onitsha household, teachers, evangelist and ministers gathered their fellow brethren in their houses with their own personal revelations.
23. How we ought to be very careful, so that as you go to your house, it is worshipping God with what God has given us and not your personal revelation, for we are messengers of the same Message.
24. He said, Store the food, eat the food, have enough that you will use in your family to beef up the faith of the members of your family, not your personal revelation that is away from the truth. You see what happened sometime in 2000. Let it not repeat, God is warning.
25. Verse 27 which we read this morning. May be I will abandon you at this delicate period and then supervise my nuclear family alone. I can now see why Noah abandoned the people and then restricted himself to his family and at the end only Noah and his family were saved. It could be something like this.
26. It could be what? Something like this.
27. THE LORD SPEAKS: Where people were preaching rapture in the year 2000, indoctrinating their fellow Brethren, while the Son of Man went on a missionary journey, they were indoctrinating them against the truth.
28. LET THE SPIRIT THAT WAS IN CHRIST BE IN ME (1) and ECHOES OF JUBILATION (2) were preached on 18th December, 1994 and 30th October 1996 respectively, all by the Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena, The Laminated Human Being.
29. THE LORD SPEAKS: THE SMOKING FIREWOOD. That is the Watchman. Attention here!
30. Page 78 verse 12. NOTE: THE TYPE OF SCATTERING YOU ARE GOING TO SCATTER MAY NOT BE THE ONE THEY SCATTERED
31. THE LORD SPEAKS: Referring to Jerusalem during the days of inquisition by the armies of Rome. I AM SAYING THAT YOUR OWN SCATTERING WILL NOT BE LIKE THAT ONE, FOR THERE WOULD NOT BE ANOTHER INQUISITION SUCH AS THAT.
32. I hope you are paying attention. But will you scatter? I do not know, but pay attention. I want everybody to hear it with the hearing of the ears and allow the thing to sink into your heart. Otherwise, you are running a risk.
33. Remember My Message. DO NOT RUN ON A MORAL RAIL. DO NOT RUN ON A MORAL RAIL. You know what I mean? Have you forgotten the Message? It is contained in the Message titled, MAINTAINING A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP IN THE BRIDE OF CHRIST. Another one is BORN AGAIN CONCEPT. Do not run on a moral rail.
34. Hear me very well a soldier or police office is under instruction by the commander or a leader of the platoon. He is holding his rifle well-loaded, well-trained, combat-ready, but there is an instruction that no matter the opposition, no matter the attack that he should not fire a shot unless he receives a command.
35. And while holding the rifle ready, everything ready, he is being attacked. Instead of fighting back or defending himself, he is waiting for the commander to order for him to shoot. While waiting for order, he lost his life.
36. You see, morally he wanted to be a very good and obedient servant who never neglected or disobeyed orders. Why trying to obey to the letter? I hope I am making sense? In the Message DO IT IN LOVE AND NOT AS A DUTY. He wanted to do it as a duty, he lost his life.
37. But if he has loved his life, he would have gunned down everything in love. Ask me why I fired? I do not want to lose my life. Let me go to cell or ordinary room trial. Court martial me. Amen.
38. What is good in dying as a hero? Who is a hero? Who is a warlord? Whosoever that survives the war is the one that will tell the story. Whoever that fights and dies is he a hero? Is he a warlord? Did you get the Message?
39. Remember you are soldiers. You have the spirit of God. You have unction. You can understand the signal. When danger starts lurking you know.
40. NOTE: THE TYPE OF SCATTERING YOU ARE GOING TO SCATTER MAY NOT BE THE ONE THEY SCATTERED BECAUSE GOD KNOWS THAT WE ARE ALL WEAK.
41. THE LORD SPEAKS: God knows we are all weak. You cannot scatter as a result of troubles, inquisition pursuing us here and there. No!
42. GOD KNOWS THAT WE CANNOT BEAR IT SO HE IS GOING TO HELP US FOR IF GOD WILL PERMIT US TO BE SCATTERED LIKE THAT OF JERUSALEM NOT UP TO THREE PERSONS WILL BE SAVED FROM ALL THAT ARE IN THIS CHURCH.
43. THE LORD SPEAKS: For that reason.
44. 13For that, God in His infinite mercy may permit a peaceful scattering….
45. THE LORD SPEAKS: May permit what?
46. …a peaceful scattering so that by the time they will come into the Church and look for you, they will see an empty place.
47. THE LORD SPEAKS: Amen.
48. By the time they will come into the church they will be looking for the living among the dead and they will hear, “He is risen. Then it is now house to house arrest.
49. THE LORD SPEAKS: It is now house to house arrest. Prophecies fulfilling. The moment we begin to rehearse prophecies, those that have the eye of vision will know.
50. I TOLD YOU, I REMAIN THE ONLY LIVING LEGEND THAT APPEARED ON THIS PLANET EARTH, HANDED DOWN TRUTHS FOR THE SALVATION OF MANKIND AND USE MY HAND AND DOCUMENTED ALL. AND CONTINUED TO GUARD EVERY STATEMENT AGAINST ERROR.
51. Others have whatever might be their works documented by people who worked with them where they presented to the world slurs, innuendos and half-truths, but it was not so with this ministry. I say it is not so with this ministry. Amen.
52. THE VALLEY OF DECISION was preached in the year 1993, at the household of God Onitsha by the Almighty God, Apostle Peter Odoemena, the Son of Man, THE RESURRECTED BODY page 36 from verse 23 – 27.
53. Valley of decision. You can never be in heaven and hell at the same time. You are either in heaven or in hell. Bro Mike, you are either in heaven or in hell.
54. To them the world is no longer worthy; they preferred to die rather to live. All ye nation that is not desire of the world. Have you not heard Him? Gather yourself so that you know yourselves.
55. When you get over there, you will say, “My Brother, you were able to make it! O Glory! So Brother you survived it! Glory be to God. Mama! So you made it! Glory be to God!
56. We must recognise one another because there is another fellowship in heaven. How I wish My people will see Me.
57. Let me tell you, I am declaring these things because he permitted Me to declare them otherwise I wanted to hold it to myself but I said to myself why this place is called Jerusalem, persecution must start in Jerusalem. It is the target of the persecutors.
58. What is Jerusalem? God’s Holy City that is God’s Holy land. Call it the Land of Truth because the antichrist hates the Truth….
59. THE LORD SPEAKS: Amen. Take note of what I am going to read now because that may be the last you will get from the quotes and I will ask you to go for today. Attention!
60. GOD HAS FINISHED WITH YOU preached by the Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena on Wednesday 1st March, 2017.
61. THE LORD SPEAKS: He said God has finished with you but have you finished with God? That is the title.
62. Page 20 from verse 13. Rather, after shouting in the general fellowship, general assembly. Remember what I told you that nobody is saved by coming to Onitsha.
63. THE LORD SPEAKS: Nobody is saved by coming to Onitsha. You come here to hear the Word and then, you go away. Whatever you want to practice is never practiced here.
64. Rather after shouting in the general assembly, Remember what I told you that nobody is save by coming to Onitsha. Nobody is saved in the general assembly. You are saved in your home.
65. THE LORD SPEAKS: You are saved in your home.
66. If God does not meet you, meet with you in your own fellowship, forget about it.
67. THE LORD SPEAKS: If God does not meet you in your own fellowship in your home, forget about it.
68. In the general fellowship, even the devil is free to come there. Nobody comes there and he is cast out. Anybody can come and sit down.
69. But in your home fellowship, it is not like that. Thus, that which you learn from the general fellowship you must take home.
70. THE LORD SPEAKS: M. U. S. T. Not another thing.
71. Hence, it is in the home fellowship that you train yourself. You grow in your home fellowship. Anybody that tells you that you are saved in the general assembly is a liar.
72. It is when you get home that you sit down and meditate. It is just like students in the lecture hall. You do not develop yourself in the lecture hall. You develop yourself in your private study. Amen.
73. This is the much I want you to take for today. It is all over for today. We invite our Pastor to come and dismiss us. To God be the Glory. Amen.
