APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA IS LIGHT AND DARKNESS IS NO OBSTACLE TO HIM PREACHED ON Sunday 26^TH March, 2023 BY Bishop Joe Ukpong During the general fellowship At the household of God, akwa-Ibom

Approved and Authorized BYAPOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN

Transcribed by sister peace ukpong.

It is not where you worship that counts, but your mode of worship. Is our worship spiritual and real? Do we have the Holy Spirit’s help? For God is Spirit, and we must have his help to worship as we should. God is a spirit being and it behooves Him, the Spirit Being to help us to worship Him as He should be worshipped.

-THE SON OF MAN

WHERE YOU WORSHIP DOES NOT MATTER BUT HOW OU WORSHIP (3 section Teaching Section 3) Preached On Sunday, 19^th July 2020 pg. 21:59-61

YOU CANNOT WORSHIP THIS GOD ON YOUR OWN WITHOUT HIS HELP

I am so grateful to be here before all of you. It is a wonderful privilege that we have gathered as a family, here in this part of the world. And it is a wonderful opportunity that God has given to us that we should gather on the first day of the week. Others have been gathering on other days, but this opportunity has been given to us, and we thank Him for giving us this wonderful privilege.

If you notice the hour that we are living in, you will notice that God has not relented His effort in trying to help people see who this Man (The Son of Man) is. Yes, we say He is God and that is true. But what makes Him God? Many do not see it deeper that way. For it must be a revelation to you. That is why He said, introducing Myself, is not only by preaching to you.
You will have a personal revelation between you and God that created you.
For if you take your time to listen to the message of two Sunday’s back, you will find out that all that have been with God were angels that God permitted them to come as human beings.
We were angels with Him, and that is why He said, it is only those that spoke and walked with God, that will come back here and recognize Him.
It is not this form that you were in. it was in the angelic form. He was showing us in a message preached using our Pastor Daniel of Umuahia household, through the scriptures, that it was said to an angel “you will now go to earth as a human being”.
The angel argued because he did not want to go to earth and be a human being. You know you must take a form before you can now come to dwell in a human body.
That is the law of God, that it must take a woman to give birth to the corporal body that you will dwell in.
That is why Brother Branham opened our eyes to see something. He said when a woman is pregnant, the spirit that is to envelop that body that is coming out will be hovering around the woman. For that body that is inside the womb cannot exist without the woman.
Whatever she eats is exactly what that baby will eat. There is a connection between the mother and that child. When the baby is given birth to, the spirit enters into it, then you will beat the baby and it will cry out. Yes, that is when the spirit has entered.
That spirit that entered was dwelling with God and he is now sent to the earth to come as a human being. But it has to take a woman to give birth to that body that God is going to dwell in.
Take for example, I will show you Daniel. Daniel was a mighty man of God and the spirit of God was upon him. Because the spirit of God was upon him, he could interpret dreams. He could tell things that were happening. However, it is not like that with The Son of Man.
That is not how it is with The Son of Man. God is a Great Light. All the messages like Grail message, Eckanker, Hare Krishna, Hindu, they speak about that Great Light. When you sit down in yoga (meditation), you are trying to move out of your body to ascend to that Great Light.
But let it be known to you, that there is no way you can approach that Great Light, without that Great Light helping you to approach Him. So it has to take Him to help you.
For you cannot see that Great Light and live, so He has to wrap Himself in a Cloud and then put Himself in a human body. Then He helps you to know Him.
There are two scriptures that are very encouraging, that let’s you know that you cannot do anything without the help of God. It is not part of my message, but I want us to read those two scriptures.
John 4 vs. 23-24. Living Bible alone. Jesus replied, “The time is coming ma’am, when we will no longer be concerned about whether to worship the Father here or in Jerusalem.
For it’s not where we worship that counts, but how we worship – is our worship spiritual and real? Do we have the Holy Spirit’s help?
You need somebody to help you. You cannot worship this God on your own. When we are worshipping, we are recognizing where we are wrong, and then correcting it. He has to help you.
If He does not help you, you cannot see it. If He does not open your eyes, you cannot see it. Are you getting the whole thing? It has to be the Holy Spirit’s help. That is why it is not just an imagination. It is a reality.
While you sit down on your sit, the Holy Spirit will open your eyes to see those areas you are failing. Nobody is talking to you, He is the one helping you. It is a reality. It is a clear manifestation of Almighty God trying to help us.
At this present time, if you listen to His message last Sunday, He is revealing who He is, because He has asked us a question long time ago, “Can you succeed where the Jews failed?”
Where did the Jews fail? They failed to recognize that the vessel standing before them was The Almighty. Not just the spirit, the Almighty Himself appeared.
And He has to take a form. When He takes a form, He arrives. That is why He is born unto righteousness and righteousness cannot depart from Him.
But you and I, our righteousness is in obeying Him. He is born unto righteousness and righteousness cannot depart from Him.
Who is this Man? The Almighty Himself.
Even in the days of Jesus Christ, what we have seen in our day, the Apostles did not see it. The only way you can obey this God, is when you have a personal knowledge of Him. That is why it is practical and personal.
It is a must that you have that practical and personal relationship with Him. Then, you will know your stand. Nobody will tell you, “do not move here, or do not take this”, no! You cannot be moved about, because you have a personal relationship.
We will read a portion to see what Saint Paul was saying as we go through the message. He was saying, “I want to continue to have the knowledge of who He is and the power that changes a man and causes him to resurrect, as Christ also resurrected”.
This is why at a point, when you look at this Man (The Son of Man) you will be amazed. You see, human beings differ. Some go to the presence of The Son of Man and feel normal. But once He enters anywhere, the atmosphere changes.
And if you are quite spiritual with this Man, you can never watch His face and remain looking at Him. But many are looking at Him and cannot see the power.
When the photograph of the Godhead was taken, do you know that what we are holding currently is not the only picture we should be having? The original picture disappeared.
While they were looking at it, it was difficult to look at the face, and this is what is dwelling in a human being. That is the person we are calling Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena. Do not allow the flesh to fool you.
The Creator of heaven and earth had to come down; He is the power that is holding the world today in what they are doing, yet nobody can see it.
That is why the prophet said, “if only God can open your eyes to see the number of demons that are following you, nobody will warn you to take the word of God serious and nobody will tell you to pray. Let Him just open your eyes like He did to Gehazi, so that you can see what is following you. Nobody is going to tell you, “please, take the word of God serious”, and nobody is going to tell you to pray. You yourself will know that you cannot do without Him. And God is the one helping us.
I want us to recognize something at this hour, and know that the person that is dwelling with us is the Almighty, the Great Light that came down and is walking with us as a human being.
When you recognize that this is the same person you were with as an angel, you will never play with Him.
Somebody read for me 1 John 4 vs. 6, Amplified version. We are [children] of God. Whoever is learning to know God [progressively to perceive, recognize, and understand God by observation and experience and to get an ever-clearer knowledge of Him] listens to us, and he who is not of God does not listen or pay attention to us. By this we know (recognize) the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error.
Please read it in Living Bible. But we are children of God, that is why only those who have walked and talked with God, will listen to us. Others won’t.
We are the children of God. Only those who have walked and talked with God, will listen to us. Others will not listen to us. That is why it is difficult for some people to believe our message. Many have believed this message, many have dropped.
And do you know that many are still dropping? And many can be sitting down in the presence of God, but they do not know who that Son of Man is. And that is why when they leave His presence, they now behave the way they want to behave. When they come to His presence, they now comport themselves to do things that are pleasing to Him.
And this is the most difficult time that you can please The Son of Man. The most difficult time is now. Why? There are things you are doing which He accepted before and you want to continue doing them now but it will not please Him again. Just like Nsukka that were trying to get Him a hotel when He visited of recent during His last outing and did not know that they failed. Has He not stayed in a hotel there before? He has stayed. But now that you try to do it, you cannot please Him. It is a difficult period.
You need to pray earnestly to be able to do that thing that He will accept. Pray very earnestly at this hour that we are living in.
continue with John 4 vs. 23-24. Do we have the Holy Spirit’s help? For God is spirit and we must have His help to worship as we should.
God is a Spirit, and it will be difficult to worship Him in that form. Who can see the spirit and survive? Do you know that nobody can see this Great Light and live? That is why He has to take something to wrap Himself, so that you and I can see the Light and live. Then He can now pull us to the Light.
That is exactly what Grail message, Eckanker, Hare Krishna and Hindu are doing. They are saying that as you are lifted, you are lifted to the Light. They are going to the Light, but nobody can get to that Light.
That is why if most of them see you, they say “the level which you people have attained, no human being has attained that level”. Almighty God said, when I want to pull you, I go to a level and begin to raise you people to a height.
And that is what He is doing now, bringing us very close to the Light. That there is nothing around us that will ever attract us away from that Light. We are getting closer to it.
I am telling you earnestly, the time is coming that you will begin to see a difference in your physical life than you were seeing before. Something is taking place. Something is about to take place, and that is why the Lord wants us to know Him more than we have known Him before.
For that is the thing that will hold you. Many think it is easy. That is why He said, if you want to make it, strive. I say strive to make it. Very few will make it, but strive to make it.
The Father wants this kind of worship from us. But you Samaritans know so little about him, worshipping blindly, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes to the world through the Jews.
Philippians 2 vs. 13. You will see that it has to take God to help us. That is the second scripture I am using to make us see that it has to take God to help us.
For God is at work within you, helping you want to obey him, and then helping you do what he wants.
On this note I say,Fellow Saints of The Most High God, remain blessed in Him.

So, if you live in the Light as He is in the Light, you will have Fellowship with Him, for you are one with Him. But if you are living in the dark, with forces of darkness operating in you, there is no way His glory can radiate towards you.

RESIST THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE EVIL

Volume 1 Preached On Sunday, 25^th October 2020 pg. 25:29

HE IS LIGHT AND DARKNESS IS NO

OBSTACLE TO HIM

This our greeting, many are joining us to say “remain blessed”, but they do not know the meaning. When I say remain blessed to you and you say remain blessed to me, you are simply encouraging me by telling me that you and I have already been blessed by the Most Holy Father, let us remain in that blessed estate.

And how do we remain in the blessed estate? By following continually and constantly, the precepts and instructions He has left for us. So it is not just a mere greeting.
I am reminding you that you should remain in your blessed estate, for we have already been blessed. We are not saying, “God bless you brother”, we said that before. A stage came, we heard Him change it from “God bless you” to “remain blessed”, for you and I have already been blessed.
You and I have already been carried over hell. So there is nothing that can draw you back to hell. That is why He is saying, when you have crossed hell, if you do anything contrary, God will take you and keep you in the grave. He is not sending you to hell, but He is going to hide you.
If there is nothing great that is about to happen, He will not take some people away. Remember He took some people away because their hearts cannot bear what is about to take place.
We are serving the Ancient God. We are not serving any new God and He is the Main Man called The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN]. He proceeded from the Divinity.
That was why I was asking my daughter to look for the dictionary meaning of Divinity. Divinity is God, and the word used is, “He proceeded from God”. That is, God proceeded from the Light. And when He proceeded from God, He came with all the attributes, the characters and everything. He is born to righteousness and righteousness can never depart from Him.
It is that Great Light that proceeded and came into a form. And when He came into a form, He entered a body. That corporal body must be born by a woman, before that word of God takes flesh in that body.
That is why when He arrived, the signs and the things that took place around Him were too much for the mother, that she had to carry Him to another woman to take care of Him. Fear gripped His father and His mother.
Look at brother Branham’s own. It was just a little thing o! A little thing compared to this one.
The Supernatural that took place when The Son of Man arrived on the scene, made the mother and father scared. We know clearly that He proceeded from the Divinity with the power of the Divinity and with all the characteristics of the Divinity embedded in Him from birth. That is how He arrived.
Turn with me to the message; RESIST THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE EVIL Volume 1. Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday 25^th October, 2020. Page 23 vs. 25-29.
He grew up in them. And that is the only way the divinity can be made visible in human form. You see! That is the only way the Divinity can be made visible in human form.
Christ dwelling in a badger skin He chose for Himself. Making Himself visible to human beings by allowing the Divine person to be born among men and to live among men. [Born unto righteousness].
Making Himself to be visible among human beings. He did not say making this person to be visible, He said, making Himself. That is Almighty God making Himself to be visible among human beings.
AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, AND DWELT AMONG US, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of Grace and truth.[John 1:14 AMP]
THE WORD BECAME FLESH AND MADE HIS DWELLING AMONG US. WE HAVE SEEN HIS GLORY, the glory of the One and only who came from the Father, full of Grace and truth.[John 1:14 NIV]
This is so that He will lead them to the light of the truth,… This is so that He will lead me and you to the light of the truth.
…for it takes the envoy from the divinity to be the teacher that will make the people to know the truth, and espouse them to the light, and that they might behold the face of He that dwells in the light so as to draw them into the light where no darkness can comprehend.
So, if you live in the light as He is in the light, you will have fellowship with Him, for you are one with Him. But if you are living in the dark, with forces of darkness operating in you, there is no way His glory can radiate towards you.
There is no way His glory can radiate towards you.The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN) grew up with all the characteristics of the Divinity embedded in Him from birth. That is the only way the divinity can be made visible in human form.
That is how Christ the Divine person was born among us and lived among us. This is so that He will lead us to the light of the truth.
For it takes Him the envoy from the divinity, to be our teacher, who makes us to know the truth and espouses us to the light, that we might behold the face of He that dwells in the light, so as to draw us into the light where no darkness can comprehend us.
That is why I am telling you that there is something pulling you and I. We get to a level that there is no darkness that can comprehend you, that can stop you from seeing what you are seeing, that can hinder you.
It is when people become blind that you see them forget the things they saw, and forget the things they heard. It is when you are in that condition, that you deny the Faith.
Look at the two things He is still using till today. Do you know that there is no in-law of Lot that believed the message of Lot? But today, His in-laws have believed Him, and He is still telling them to fight harder. Have you seen it?
In the days of Noah, 120 years of preaching left Noah with only his wife, his three sons and their wives. Even his own first son got lost. The Bible did not show us that the first son got lost, it is the Qur’an that showed us.
Know it that if it was so terrible in the days of Noah, so terrible in the days of Lot, and these two generations are what is being used to compare to our own day. Think about the condition of these generations.
That is, it is becoming tougher and more difficult as we go per day. But He said, the sufficiency lies in Christ. We read in the Bible where it said, it is difficult to be a child of God, but the answer lies in Christ.
The remedy is in Christ. It is left for you to remain following His instructions. If you do not know who is in your midst, it will be difficult for you to follow. You will think that He is playing about whatever He is saying.
Something will be telling you that it does not matter, you can do whatever you want. Why? The Son of Man has always been raising His sword, and then later He will bring it down, but there is a day when He will raise it and cut you into pieces. That is final.
So do not think that every time He is having mercy, He will continue to have mercy forever. There is a day that it will be over and you cannot have that opportunity again.
This is the time to seek His face earnestly. He is living in the light and wants us to live in the light like Him and have fellowship.
Let us go to the Bible as I take my topic. Daniel 2:22, LB. He reveals profound mysteries beyond man’s understanding. He knows all hidden things, for he is light, and darkness is no obstacle to him.
Repeat! He reveals profound mysteries beyond man’s understanding. He knows all hidden things, for he is light, and darkness is no obstacle to him.
Join me as we consider this topic; APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA IS LIGHT AND DARKNESS IS NO OBSTACLE TO HIM. It is not that He is like light, no! He is the Light.
There are only two people that you have ever heard say that, “I am the Light of the world”. Is it not true? Jesus and the Son of Man. And these people you see as two, are one. The Resurrected Body.
That is the only voice that ever said, “I am the Light of the world”. Is there any preacher, any prophet, that has ever been the Light of the world? No! It takes Him alone to espouse us to the light so that we might behold the face of He that is in the light.
Turn with me to the message; SEE THE LORD IN THE LORD. Preached by The Son of Man on 13^th May, 2012. Page 106 vs. 40.
The brightness of His face is so much that no human can dare look at His face and live. Hence, the only way they can come closer is by God veiling Himself in a Cloud. Now, from that cloud, He will be reaching out to the people. He can then speak.
The Lord is the light, for we are dwelling in the light. Darkness has covered the entire world. The light is only among the people of God. Just like truth, the Truth is now only among the children of God, while gross darkness has already covered the entire world.

THE MOMENT DARKNESS BECOMES TOO THICK, KNOW THAT THE DAY IS ABOUT TO BREAK. Gross darkness has covered the whole earth. Everywhere is engrossed with thick darkness. A sure sign that any moment from now, there is going to be a golden daybreak.

-THE SON OF MAN MIDNIGHT CRY (EXPLAINED) Preached On Sunday, 7th June 2020; PG.27:7

DARKNESS HAS COVERED THE ENTIRE WORLD

Let us go back to the message; RESIST THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE EVIL Volume 1. Page 32 vs. 50-53. The truth is now among the children of God, while darkness has covered the entire world. And it is gross darkness.

What is that darkness? Ecclesiastical darkness. Political darkness. These are the two that have blindfolded them completely that they can no longer even desire to live in the light.
Even to have the desire to live in the Light, is not there. Remember, you must first have desire. For Almighty God said, in anything you want to obtain in this life, the first thing that must come is desire.
Ask yourself the question, is there that desire to dwell in the Light in you? Because these two darkness, ecclesiastical and political darkness are draining the Light. Then the third one that has engrossed the people, is economical darkness.
Finally, economic darkness has eclipsed all. Everybody is desiring to dwell here eternally, and then amass the whole wealth of the world to himself as if he will not die again.
No matter what you are saying, people have the desire to build the best building, buy the best car, do all these things. It is still in the people. That is why the thing is sapping the desire to dwell in the Light.
And you must remain in the Light, to be able to cross what is about coming now. You must remain in the Light.
Something is pulling you. And you will see that when we talk of this Satan, Almighty God said, it is no Satan from outside, it is your thoughts and imaginations that is killing you. It is your thoughts and imagination that is the devil you are looking at. Do not look at any devil coming from outside.
But we know we are passing this world as pilgrims and as strangers. This world is not our own. We are passing as pilgrims and strangers.
No matter what you are having today, look at it as one who went abroad and wanted to rent a house. The house was already furnished. All you do is carry your bag and enter inside. Everything you need is inside that house. When you want to go, you carry your bag and go out. That is the kind of life God wants us to live.
All these material things you are seeing here, you must leave it here. It is just like the man that went abroad, when you are coming back, you just carry your bag and come out of the house. Did he come out with anything else? It is the same bag he entered with that he came out with. If there is anything new, it is the new clothes you added to your bag.
So that is what God wants. Let that desire remain in us. He is setting your eyes on Him. And as you set your eyes on The Son of Man, He continues to lift you. Your mind is no more on any other thing, except how you will dwell with Him eternally. How you are going to walk with Him into Paradise and dwell with Him.
He said, that day you will know that I am He. That is why He told us something. Till now people have not seen it clearly. He said what will happen after the election will tell you that I am He.
And people are watching. Everything looks as if it is a story. Just keep watching, you will see that there is nothing He said, that will not come to pass.
Presently, the tribunal is sitted on the petition against the election of Tinubu and he has flown out of the country. He is not even in the country. He has flown out. It is already happening. What God said is already happening, for there has not been a president confirmed yet. God said it is not going to produce a president.
God said it will not produce a president and it is happening. And if they are trying to fight anything else, then it will bring His word again to pass. The last coup will come.
It is left for you to look at it all and ask, “who is this Man if not Almighty God?” All He has been saying, even when Buhari came unto the throne, He told us in 2003. And when did Buhari come? 2015! And He said at the end of his tenure he will plunge us into confusion. Has he not plunged us into confusion?
Nigeria is in the most confused state now. So let us know that we are dealing with the supernatural. Let us know that this is the period we set our eyes, set our mind, set everything on The Son of Man. For He is doing for us a great work. He is helping us.
He is trying to make us desire everyday to live in the Light with Him. Because many have lost the desire. What crippled the desire in them? Ecclesiastical darkness! Political darkness! And economical darkness.
Why, because people think they can make money easily from whatever they are doing. And because of that, they are being attracted away. Yes! And they feel they can make it, and that is where their heart is.
Almighty God said we are never going to be the worst hit and we can never be the worst hit, no matter what the situation is.
If at this point in time, you do not even desire to live in the light, it is a clear sign that you have been blindfolded completely by ecclesiastical and political darkness.
The world is still very comfortable for you but the genuine children of God have come to the point where the world is no longer comfortable for them to dwell in.
This is the reason why our Lord and Master, the light of the world, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN), said and I quote; “Now is the hour to discuss eternal life and eternal habitation with God, because this is the last lap”.
Why is He saying this is the time to discuss eternal life? Whatever that you are focused on discussing constantly is what is ruling your heart. That is your desire. So if you are alone, what are you discussing? Because you can talk to yourself.
If you are with people, what are you discussing? For whatever you are discussing is going to take over your heart. That is why God said, wherever you are, continue to tell them of the truth you are holding.
Something is about to happen. The problem is that the world is not thinking of anything. Whatever they are preaching is talking about prosperity. The devil is disturbing you in your house. Your brother is the evil. Your family is this and that…. That is not the problem.
Have people thought of it where the Bible said, ”as it was in the days of Noah and the days of Lot, so shall it be in the day of The Son of Man”. Are we not in the day of The Son of Man?
Nobody is thinking about that again. It is only us in the Bride. We are the only ones that are thinking that way. What should occupy our hearts and minds should be heavenly things and not earthly things.
But if I may ask you this question; “What is occupying your mind right now?” Be sincere to yourself for your mind sounds loud before Him whom we worship.
Nothing is hidden before Him, for darkness is no obstacle to Him.
Let us be zealous to know the Lord, for you must have your own personal revelation of who God is. It is on the basis of who God is to you, that your obedience or disobedience to His word starts.
When you see somebody disobeying the word of God, it is what he has taken Him to be, a mere man. When you see somebody obeying His word, it is what he has taken this Man to be.
It is either you have taken Him to be God, or you have taken Him to be a mere man.
Hosea 6:3, Living bible and Amplified. Oh, that we might know the Lord! Let us press on to know him,… Let us do what? Press on to know Him.
Do not relent your effort. Press on! Be zealous about knowing this God. For Saint Paul never relaxed. We will read about Saint Paul too.
Oh, that we might know the Lord! Let us press on to know him, and he will respond to us as surely as the coming of dawn or the rain of early spring. LB.
Yes, let us know (recognize, be acquainted with, and understand) Him, let us be zealous to know the Lord [to appreciate, give heed to, and cherish Him]. His going forth is prepared and certain as the dawn, and He will come to us as the [heavy] rain, as the latter rain that waters the earth. AMP.
Let us press on to know Him. Let us be zealous to know the Lord, to appreciate Him, to give heed to His word and to cherish Him.

Do you know who God is? Nobody knoweth the Father but the Son. Nobody knoweth the Son but the Father and whomsoever the Son shall chose to reveal. I am in the bosom of the Father and He that is in the bosom of the Father knows the mind of the Father. If I declare that you are lost, you are lost. If I declare that you are saved, you are saved. Do you know the safe ground? Have you gone this way before? ………. Do you know that it will be one day? THE SON OF MAN will just speak a little and hold His hand backward and the next thing you will hear is the whistle blast.

-THE SON OF MAN

THE ESSENCE OF WORSHIPPING THE LIVING GOD; preached on 22^nd January 2012 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 71 vs. 33 & 38

YOU MUST HAVE A PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE OF WHO GOD IS

DAILY GUIDE FOR ALL THE ELECTS OF GOD WORLD WIDE [BACKGROUND] Part 1 Volume 2. Preached by The Son of Man on Friday 20^th November, 2020. Page 74 vs. 19-20. You must have your own personal knowledge of who God is,…

You must! It is not ‘you can’ or ‘you feel like’. M-U-S-T! You must have your own personal knowledge of who God is. …for it is on the basis of who God is to you, that your obedience to His word starts, and your disobedience also starts. That is why it is a must.
You see, people are not praying. For you are supposed to pray and say, “God, reveal yourself to me the more. Open my eyes the more”.
And we sing that song every time. We sing it, but we do not take it to heart as we are singing that song. We sing it because it is sweet, but there is no revelation of what we are singing. Look at the wordings. It says, “open my eyes that I may see”.
For whatever you desire, God is going to do it for you. But if the desire is not there, it looks as if one is forcing you to do that thing. Are you getting it? But when you desire something, you will work towards it.
Take for example, we never forced our children to go to school. It is their desire that made them to continue in what they are doing. It is the desire that is in the children that is making them to continue to seek for further studies. Are you getting what I am saying? Whatever you see them doing, is the desire of their heart and then we support them.
But the desire must be in you. If the desire is not there to obtain something, you will not obtain it. Let us not fool ourselves. Desire is very necessary. Very, very necessary!
You must have your own personal knowledge of who God is, for it is on the basis of who God is to you, that your obedience to His word starts, and your disobedience also starts.
It depends on what He is to you and your own conclusion about Him. If you see Him as your God and your Saviour, your Creator, your Maker and your all and all, your attitude will reflect it. Is it not true? It is true sir!
If you see Him as your God, your Creator, your Saviour and your all and all, you will never, never play with His spoken and written word. Then the entrance of His word into your heart will circumcise your heart.
For it is when you have seen Him like that, you open your heart to Him. Whatever He is saying, you begin to do it. Whatever He is telling you, you do it. As you are sitting down there, He is saying pray that God should open your eyes, you begin to pray.
Anything He is telling you to do, you are doing it and as the word is entering your heart, it is circumcising your heart. For it is not by power, it is not by might, but by the Spirit of God. And the spirit of God is the word of God.
Even this written word we call the bible, what activates it is the spoken word. But how is the world carrying the bible? It is just a letter. It is killing many. But the spoken word has activated the Bible and made the Bible a new book to us.
Let us look into the Bible again. We want to see that the word of God circumcises our heart. Philippians 3:3 KJV. For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
Page 81 vs. 44-45. Hear what the Lord is saying. The words we are receiving are the words of circumcision of the heart.
The word we are receiving is what? The words of circumcision of the heart. That is why I said, as you are listening to it, it is working in you. We are eager to listen to the messages.
Even as we are standing here today, we are longing to get the message from Mount Zion. Because as you are listening to it, allowing it to enter into your heart, it is circumcising your heart. Circumcision means cutting away loose flesh. All those wrong desires, wrong things in your heart, it is taken it away.
There is no way you are going to sit down without thinking of anything. Even when you are just lying down, He said, you are thinking of many things, and that is why evil spirits are coming into your thoughts.
So many things have entered into your thoughts, even while you lie down without doing anything and you do not know. So it takes the message as you are receiving it to flush them out. If it means reading a chapter a day, just do it for there is something it is doing in your heart.
Now, let ,me tell you, in seven steps to training your children, what does the mother do? The children go to school, their teachers teach them all sorts of things, their fellow students tell them so many things, so they discuss many things. When they come home, their mother sits them down and uses the word of God to flush everything they got from outside.
That is why if the mother does not know the truth, then what is she going to give to the children? I thank God that my children can never blame their mother. It is because of William that is sitting down here, my wife resigned from her job. Yes! A very good work. A work that even her people were angry that I was the one who made her to resign. A job that was making her popular. A work that many people knew her for.
They begged her not to resign, she said no, for the sake of her son. Why? If he closes, we have to carry him from school to the work place, nobody is going to stay with him in the house. And from brother Braham’s message to our own message, it taught us on child training.
Nobody is adequate to teach the child better than the mother. So for her to do all those things, she had to resign from NASCO Foods. And that is what took her to what she is doing today, teaching. Her teaching is a gift. She became a teacher, carrying her children to the same school, finish from school with them, come back to the house with them.
So they have no where to say she did wrong. That is why when they have a problem with her, she will ask, where did I fail in teaching you? For she followed the seven steps to flush out the things that are in the hearts of the children.
And that is what God is doing. Can you imagine that He is on leave and He is still talking to us. Have you seen it? He is on leave but He is still talking. Why, because He is using it to flush many things that are entering our hearts.
You can never go to work without listening to what your colleagues are saying. So you are discussing with people. Wrong spirits are entering you. What you need is the word of God.
Then how can He relent His effort? How can we sleep as preachers and say that the Lord has relented? We must continue to talk, continue to show you that if you play with this word, you will perish. For this is what is flushing out those things you are hearing from your colleagues.
For you cannot walk in isolation. Right now, what is the reigning discussion? Politics! Governorship election, presidency. Economy! Money no dey! Is that not the three things He just showed us now?
Churches are preaching it, because they are not happy that money is not coming in. No tithe. So how are they going to survive? So let us recognize that this God knows what He is doing.
The person we are dealing with is not a mere human being like us. He is 100% human being because He eats, He drinks, He goes to toilet, He baths, He sleeps, He gets sick. He is 100% God. What He can see, you cannot see.
He can tell you of something that is about to happen now, it has never entered your heart. You will be thinking that Son of Man is accusing you falsely, but you do not know that He has seen that thing coming down. In a moment, a few hours from that time, you will do what He just told you and you were denying.
The words we are receiving are the words of circumcision of the heart. When you believe this word, it circumcises your heart of everything evil. You begin to think aright, walk aright, and behave aright. But when you refuse this word that is coming to you, there is no way your heart can be circumcised.
Have you seen it? So when you refuse the word, your heart cannot be circumcised. You refuse it. You do not want to listen to the message. You do not want to read the message. How do you think that your heart will be circumcised?
This thing we are talking about is not by power, it is not by might. What is taking place here is just simply following instructions. Do what God tells you to do.
He did not tell you to read all the messages o! He said, if only you can read a chapter, He even said if you can read a verse, it will talk to you. Something must talk to you as you read that place. God will use it to minister unto you. And that is why we have fellowship, so that we can sit down and talk to one another.
If you are not doing what God has told you to do, start doing it. Why because time is over. Very soon, it will be completely over. Remember the gate has opened. And I will show you from here, that the gate is like the bank door. If you like, go to the bank now and press that button, the door will not open. The security will be watching you, the door will not open. Why because today is not a working day.
But tomorrow when it is eight o’clock, go there and press the button, it will open. If you are carrying anything, it will not permit you to go inside. So it is with this door now. The door is open, but you cannot go in if there is a trace of unbelief in you. You cannot pass. You will be standing there, another person will come and pass. You think it is a door you will just be walking in anyhow? Na lie!
The door is automatic. When you come and there is no unbelief in you, you will pass through. When you hear The Lord speaking on this issue, you think He is telling stories but He is not.
People have already entered the plane. Some are in the waiting hall. Some are outside. And the people are not seeing this thing the Lord is saying. Nobody has stopped and asked, ‘where am I now?’
But when you refuse this word that is coming to you, there is no way your heart can be circumcised.
When your heart is circumcised, you are placed in right standing with God.
If you refuse this word that is coming to you, there is no way your heart can be circumcised. That shows that you are not in right standing with God.
Why are we alive? We are alive in the land of the living just for one purpose, to worship and serve the Lord in Spirit and in truth, which is the whole duty of man.

It is God’s desire to take all of us home. But unfortunately, many of us do not want to go. And we do not want others to go. Why? The world is yet very sweet to those people. They have not yet decided to abandon the world. Rather, they are looking out for some greener, greener, opportunities whether they can still enjoy more of them.

THE LAST INTRODUCTION OF WHO GOD IS Pg. 175:12CompiledBYDeacon David Mbah

DO YOU HAVE THE DESIRE TO LIVE WITHGOD IN THE LIGHT?

WHERE WILL YOU LIKE TO SPEND YOUR ETERNITY? Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday 5^th July, 2020. Page 23 vs. 2-10. WORSHIPPING AND SERVING THE LORD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH MEANS PUTTING ALL OUR WRONGS RIGHT.

That is why we are here. We are not here to point to yesterday. We are not here to point you to one minute or second ago, it is past. We are talking of now, we are hearing the word of God. Whatever you are hearing the word of God telling you to do, do it now.
WORSHIPPING AND SERVING THE LORD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH MEANS PUTTING ALL OUR WRONGS RIGHT. Any fault we have noticed through the preaching of the word of God or through the pricking of our consciences,…
Your conscience pricks you. Any man that does wrong, his conscience will prick him, except if your conscience is dead. Is it not true?
…if our consciences are still alive. Because anybody who is a seed of God, the moment he strays away from the truth, the conscience will arrest that person immediately.
Whoever that is in the wrong and the conscience does not arrest that person, he does not belong to God or he has crossed into the region of the lost. Not even Judas.
Do you know that the conscience of Judas pricked him? That is why he died before Christ. He returned the money but it was refused. He went and hung himself. If his conscience did not prick him, he would not have done that. But already, he had failed.
Even Saul the king, his conscience pricked him. Why did he hide the loot? Why did he hide the king? It was because his conscience pricked him, but still he failed.
Okay, if you have anybody that is an armed robber around your place, does he come and display things anyhow? He hides all those things. Once he hears police siren, he will run away because his conscience is pricking him and telling him that what he is doing is wrong, but he does not have the desire to change.
He is only going to run away from there. If it is drinking parlor, he will run away and hide somewhere. If the police come and go, he will come back and continue his drinking. And maybe that same night, they will go for operation.
So your conscience can prick you, but you do not have the word of God in you, that desire to change. Change starts by a desire. Yes! You have seen your wrong, are you desiring to change?
Because God is giving us an example with Judas. Are you saying that we will see Judas in Paradise? Saul, all of them, their hearts pricked them, but they did not make it because the desire was not there.
Remember that Judas’ conscience arrested him. Peter’s conscience arrested him. Barnabas’ conscience arrested him. John Mark’s conscience arrested him. Even king Saul of Judah, it was not Samuel that arrested him. His conscience first of all arrested him. That was why he hid the loot he collected from the war at the backyard and hid the king Agag, at the backyard.
If the conscience of a criminal does not arrest him, why is he hiding his loot away from the neighborhood? Did you get the message?
His conscience has pricked him, he is hiding it away from his neighbor’s, but has he changed? Because there is no desire in him, to leave that darkness and to go back to light.
But look at the thief on the cross, his conscience pricked him and he told his colleague, “listen to me my friend, we both deserve this punishment, but this man is innocent”. Then after he has finished talking to him, he turned around and said, “Master, remember me in your kingdom”. Jesus said, tonight, you will be with me.
That is why God is saying that it takes a second for revelation to hit you. Did he [the thief] listen to any message? No! He turned around and said this Man is innocent and He is God. Then he said, remember me in your kingdom. Who told him that this man is a king?
Yes, your conscience can prick you, but do you have the desire to live with God in the light? For there is nothing you achieve without first of all desiring it. You must desire it.
It is desire that starts the journey in all our children to be in the university and to graduate. This is what they want to be. They desire it. But if the desire is not there, your parents can force you to go to school, but you will go there and mess up because the desire is not there. But if the desire is there, nobody will tell you to read, nobody will tell you to be serious with your studies. You are the one that will do them on your own because it is your desire.
Did we follow any of you to school? So the desire must be there, and it is that desire that helps you to face your target no matter what anybody is doing. Since the desire is there, you must hit your target.
If the desire is not there, the heart can prick you that what you are doing is not right, but tomorrow you continue in it.
If a criminal does not know that what he is doing is wrong, why is it that whenever he hears the siren of law enforcement agents, he will run away?
He should have been there to tell them that he was not committing crime, that he was doing the right thing. But does he stand to tell them? He knows that what he is doing is wrong, he runs away.
The problem is, does he desire to change? But the thief at the cross desired a change there and then, but there was no opportunity for him to come down and change. He said Lord, remember me in your kingdom. What was the answer of Jesus Christ? Tonight, you will be with me.
So let us know that it is one thing for your heart to prick you, another thing is for you to have the desire to change from that evil life. Your heart can prick you that you have done wrong, but do you have the desire to change from that thing. For that is what is holding many today. Their heart is pricked.
Did it not prick Judas? It pricked him and then he went and committed suicide. The heart of Barnabas pricked him, but is there anywhere in the bible that said he returned back and pleaded for mercy from Saint Paul? If his heart pricked him, what should he have done? He will return to Saint Paul and the brethren and say, have mercy upon me. I was carried away by evil.
Did John Mark return? But their heart pricked them. That is why God asked this question. If the conscience of a criminal does not arrest him, why is he hiding his loot away from the neighborhood. Did you get the message? He is only running away from the law enforcement agents.
God said there are many that are worse than those in the prisons, but the only thing is that they keep escaping till their day is up. You can continue. Your heart can be pricking you, but you are not desiring a change.
Desire must come. Who gives you the desire? God! How do you get this desire from God? By obeying His instructions and doing what He is saying. If He says, do not play with the messages, and you do not play with it, that is how the desire will come.
The desire does not just come anyhow. Something must first strike you. When Saint Paul was going about killing the believers, he came face to face with the Light and his eyes opened. Then Saint Paul began to desire to know this God more and more, because he has had a contact with God. He did not go back.
Do you know that you can be a seed of God and get lost? This will happen because you refuse to listen to the word of God. You were carried away by what you were seeing around you.
That is not what God sent you to do. God sent you to the earth to be His ambassador. You were an angel with Him and then He decided to send you to the earth. When He said you should go, you started protesting, “how can I change from this angelic form to this human form?” You know that angels are higher than human beings.
Also when He wants you to return back home, you start arguing again. Did our mummy not argue? Abraham also argued. He said go, I am not ready. To come, you will argue. To go, you will argue. So let us know that when you come on earth as sent by God, remember you are on a mission.
You came for a mission, to be God’s ambassador. For God will be in you, reconciling the world to Himself.
IF EVIL IS GOOD, WHY DO WE HIDE IT AWAY WHEN WE COMMIT IT? BECAUSE COMMIT AND HIDE IS EVIDENCE OF WILLFUL SIN.
Willful sin is something you know, you should not do and you went ahead doing it. The thief knows that it is wrong to steal, but he is still going to steal. Whatever you are doing that is wrong, you know that it is wrong, but you are still doing it because you do not have the desire to change.
Why is the desire not there? It is because you have refused to follow the instruction of the instructor. He did not send you to the earth without accompanying you. Have you seen why He is the Great Commander.
When He sends you, He will go ahead of you. When He told us to leave our angelic conditions, and become human beings, He went ahead of us to guide us. For He knows that when we come, we will be carried away by the things we see and hear. Then He came to guide us. This is what God is doing.
Page 32 vs. 27-28. If there be any of us who says he does not know what he is doing, that person is telling lies. If you also say that you are unaware that the bad thing you are doing is bad, you are also a liar. Because whatever God says is evil, is evil. If God says it is right, it is right.
So, whoever that is indulging in any act God had already condemned, that person knows that he is wrong. If you are doing that which God has justified, you are right. That is why I gave you the message titled; DOING THE WILL OF GOD AT ALL TIMES.
You may know that what you are doing is wrong but the problem is a lack of desire to change. The desire is not there. Anybody that says that he does not know that what he is doing is wrong, is a liar. He knows!
Whatever God [Apostle Peter Odoemena] says is final. That is why it is very, very necessary for you to have your own personal knowledge of who He is. The Bible said we should be zealous and press on to know Him personally and practically. Also be acquainted with Him.
The problem many in our midst are having is double mindedness. That is having two minds. And having two minds is staggering.
Let us proceed to the message; THEY FORSOOK ALL AND FOLLOWED HIM. Preached by The Son of Man on 19^th October, 1996. Page 21 vs. 39. Staggering means having two minds. Staggering in unbelief means two minds.
Many of you are staggering in unbelief; in unbelief nobody can do anything at His WORD.
If you cannot do anything at the word of The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena, you are staggering in unbelief.Anything that is not done at his word is unbelief. If Peter was reasoning his word, Peter couldn’t have forsaken all. James and John couldn’t have forsaken all.
I will show you Peter again. The first time the Lord told him, put this net at the right side, he first of all said, “Lord we have toiled all night and we have not caught anything, but at your word I will put it”. Why? He was listening to the message.
Jesus Christ did not come there to preach to them. He was preaching to others that followed Him. While they were washing their nets, he asked who has this boat? It was Peter’s boat. He then told him, just pull it away from the water. Peter did so, and he [Jesus] sat in the boat and was preaching in general.
He was not preaching to Peter, John and James. They were washing their nets, but what they heard him saying had already registered in their hearts. When He now said, put your net here, Peter said “at your word”, and did it. And when they obeyed, they could not drag out the net even with all the fishermen combined helping them. When they brought it out, the catch filled the whole boat, including that of James, John and the rest.
Then the same person said, come and follow me, they forsook all that catch. They never stopped to say, “oga wait o! let us send message to our wives since we are following you, let them come and sell this fish”. The Bible said, they forsook all and followed him.
See Peter who forsook all, what happened to him later? I will show you. That is why Saint Paul said, I press on, I forget the past, and keep pressing on. I am pressing on to know more about this man called God. Peter never pressed on.
It came to a point Peter became over confident. When the Master was telling him, you will deny me. He said, even if I will die, I will never deny you. Jesus said do not worry, tonight, before the cock crows thrice, you will deny me. Did Peter’s heart not prick him?
The other disciples followed Peter to say, we will not deny you, but every one of them deserted him.
So when you hear The Son of Man tell you that you have something in you, do not argue. Fall flat at His feet, cry for mercy. If He does not help you, you must fulfil what He said. He told a brother, if I ever hear you say that you have never stolen, I will cause you to go into the market, and you are going to steal only five naira and they will beat you into coma. You will not steal anything reasonable o! I will cause you to steal only five naira.
So do not boast before God. Do not try it. All you need to do is humble yourself at His feet.
Once unbelief is found in you, you cannot do anything at His word. For that, the Bible said, let not an evil heart of unbelief be found in you. For it will cause you to depart from God. You will be walking away gradually, till you disappear from God.
What caused it? A little unbelief has now increased, because you continued in evil. That is why He said, when you hear my voice today, harden not your heart.

What does it take for one to be an unbeliever? It takes a very little thing. Any little disobedience, after you have obeyed for a long time instantly makes you an unbeliever. Are we getting the message?

PASTOR WISDOM ODOEMENA

AN UNBELIEVER IS A BURDEN TO HIMSELFPREACHEDDURING FRIDAY FELLOWSHIP

ON 10^TH JULY, 2020 PG. 35:60

REASONING THE WORD OF GOD WILL LEADYOU TO UNBELIEF

Hebrews 3;12 KJV. Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

Page 34 vs. 3-5. If we are being accused constantly of unbelief, and we don’t know where it is coming from, there is no way we can get rid of it.
When you do not know what is happening in your body as sickness, can you get rid of it? The Son of Man often tells us when we are sick to first go to the hospital. When they determine what is wrong with you, then come back to Me. For He is the great physician. It is not that He does not know where the thing is; But He wants you to follow His instructions.
But the moment we know where it is coming from, brethren, the problem is over. I told all of you, when you hear unbelief, unbelief, go and examine yourself, is there anywhere you are rejecting the word of God?
For that is what is causing the unbelief. If there is anywhere you are rejecting the word of God, adjust yourself.
There are times you are given drugs, because of the bitterness of the drugs, you will not like to take it. That is what used to happen to our wives when they are pregnant. They go for anti-natal and are given drugs. When they come back, they gather those drugs without taking them. You have to be following them so that they can take those drugs. It is because the drug is not sweet, it is bitter. And the word of God is very bitter.
I was talking to a little boy in the school where I am working. He said sir, I hate truth. I said, then you are a devil incarnate o! He said, truth is too bitter. I said yes, you have a very good idea that truth is very bitter, but do not hate it. Be taking it in, it will be sweet inside your stomach.
Is there anywhere I am walking contrary to the word of God? Those are the questions you should ask yourself.
After examining yourself and you don’t see anywhere, you justify yourself. Then you become right in your own view. Then it requires the Holy Ghost to come and open you, and you will know if you have become a child of Abraham for one day or not.
It requires the Holy Ghost to justify you, and the Holy Ghost is a person. Apostle Peter Odoemena is the very Holy Ghost. It requires Him to come down and open your eyes and tell you where you are in the wrong.Then, you will know whether you are what you are claiming to be or whether you are claiming what you are not, and whether you are just answering what you claim to be but you are not.
Once you are still holding to the religion which you are very used to, that religion will hold you captive. To believe the written word becomes a problem. If it becomes a problem for you to believe the written word, how can you then believe the spoken word which is the original seed?
You see what kills many. They are holding to the religion they are used to. Do you know that you can hold to this Faith as a religion, and then you die. Because you will say we are living by Grace.
That we are living by Grace, does it mean I should continue in my wrong? You have made it a religion. Grace means unmerited favour, not continuing in evil. God gave you an unmerited favour. So you can hold on to the grace of God and keep deceiving yourself.
If you are walking contrary to the word of God, you are wrong. Stop it and walk right. For it is an unmerited favour that you and I can see and know what we know today. Do you think any of us is better than this denominational people? No!
So let us recognize what God is trying to point to us in this hour that we are living in and then make things right.
Religion can hold you captive. And when it holds you captive, it becomes difficult for you to believe the written word. And if you cannot believe the written word, you cannot believe the spoken word.
That is what is happening to the people today. They see the reality but they cannot change. Something has held them captive. Religion has held them captive because that is what they are used to, but they do not desire something better.
If you desire it, the Lord knows. You cannot hide it from God. Any time you desire something, the Lord knows and He will help you according to that desire.
Page 26 vs. 52-53. We don’t follow God by reasoning His word. Reasoning will lead you to unbelief.
You do not even need to understand what He is saying. Abraham did not reason any of the instructions God gave him, or he would have waited for some time thinking on them before he will carry them out. If you begin to reason it, you will not do it.
Reasoning will lead you to staggering around His word. The moment you start to reason you will conclude that it will never be God. You will conclude by finding fault. What caused it? Reasoning!
You cannot have faith in His word. You cannot act by His word. You will sit there and begin to think, reason and suggest. After thinking, thinking and thinking then, you will develop a sense about it, and you will interpret it in your own way. What are you doing? You are staggering in unbelief, because you have never taken Him at His word but the moment you decide to take Him at His word, what will you do? At thy word, I will do it.
You cannot follow the teachings we have received and act upon them until you know who is in your midst. The Personality we are having dealings with, the spirit of truth. If you do not know Him, it will be difficult for you to act on His word.
You will be looking at it as if it is optional. The spoken word is not optional. It is mandatory! When we say the spoken word is the original seed, the spoken word is mandatory. There is nothing optional about it.
Let us proceed to the message; BE CAREFUL ABOUT LAST MINUTE MANIFESTATION OF UNBELIEF [FOLLOW ME AS I FOLLOW HIM (THE CLOUD) REVIEWED]. Preached by The Son of Man on 8^th September, 2013. Page 51 vs. 34-39.
When others mention Holy Ghost, they are looking forward to the sky, expecting the spirit to move like a wind, like a great tempest. However, when we (the Bride) mention Holy Ghost, we know what we are mentioning.
The Bride is eating the living manna from heaven, but not the type your father’s ate in the wilderness and after eating it, they died. But the manna you are eating came down from heaven, a stored food for this season, anyone who eats of it will not die again.
This is the promised bread which The Son of Man alone will give for Him alone has The Father sealed. The word of God is the bread of life, a living manna that came down from heaven.
That was why Christ was sharing Himself to His brethren saying, “Eat my flesh, drink my blood”. He partook in His own word, He obeyed His own word, He became the author of Eternal Salvation.
Note, He came with salvation to them that believe.
If He can obey His own word, act according to His own word, what on Earth will be the excuse of any person in this Bridal movement not to obey His word and act according to His word?
Now, have you not wondered why The Lord said, “Now is the hour to discuss Eternal life and Eternal habitation with God because this is the last lap”.
He wants our hearts and minds to be occupied with heavenly things. For this reason, He is helping us to examine our foundation once again to know whether we are still holding on to this truth.
What then is expected of the Bride right now that the gate is opened? We should have one mind, one spirit, one vision and one character. That is what should be in us. The desire that is in me is the same desire that should be in you. What is that desire? To know more of this God. To do what He says. To act according to His will. When you and I are doing that, we must have the same character. I can be short, you can be tall, I can be fat, you can be slim, as long as we are doing what the word of God said, our character, our vision, our manner of life and everything will be the same. That is what is expected now. And the only thing that will produce it is when we continue to do those things that He is telling us to do.
This is the period that if you have played with the word of God in time past, do not try it now again. Do what He is telling you to do according to His instructions, because the spoken word is mandatory. Not optional!
God is not asking for my opinion whether I like it or not, it is a must. When He says do not, do not try it. If you do it, you have now decided to take care of yourself and He willhands off. What will happen to you? Disaster!
Page 101 vs. 63-64. Remember that the gate will open by itself. The gate has a remote control that will open and close.
If you are free from unbelief, it will open. If any trace of unbelief is found, it will remain closed and you cannot break it because, it is made up of prism. It is not glass. I am telling you the truth. It is prism, it looks like glass but it is unbreakable.
Please, take note of what I am saying. You may not see THE SON OF MAN there. I may be there but you will not see me because I know if you see my face, you will be begging. But where you cannot see my face, I will be a part of the glass so that you will be rubbing the door like that.
If there is anything in you, what is supposed to get rid of it is what we are going through now. That is what circumcises your heart. But as long as you do not take it in, unbelief must be found in you. That is why He warned us, be very careful about last minute manifestation of unbelief. All the topics of His message, is a message on its own. That you will know that this is the hour of last minute unbelief.
This is where over confidence can kill. Over confidence will make somebody careless, and last minute unbelief will be found in the person.So today is your day to turn a new leaf, make a U-turn and run back to God for tomorrow may be too late.
THEY FORSOOK ALL AND FOLLOWED HIM. Page 61 vs. 30. Look at Abraham who bore you. Do we not have Abraham in our day? Do we not see how He takes His word? If you believe God the same way he believed, you will take God at His word the same way he took God.
If I end only at preaching this word without putting it in action from today, I will be the most miserable preacher that ever lived.
If you will end at hearing the word without putting it into action, you will be the most miserable preacher that ever lived on earth. It will take children of Abraham, counterfeit children of God.
To do so today, we are not just reading the story of Abraham, we have Abraham of our own day, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN). If we obey His word as He obeyed His own word, we will be blessed in Him, forsaking everything for His Name sake.
Page 74 vs. 7. If we take God at His word the same way Abraham believed God, the same way he acted. If we act the same way at the command of the Lord we will be blessed with faithful Abraham, any thing outside it, No!
He is not even asking us only to read, we have practical Abraham in our own day. That is why He said, if I tell you to do anything and you cannot do it, watch me. The way I do it, also join me in doing it the same way and you have crossed.

Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.”

(Acts 4:12 KJV)

WHAT IS YOUR DETERMINED PURPOSE FOR FOLLOWING CHRIST?

Let us go to the Bible again. Philippians 3:10-11 AMP. Let us see how Saint Paul was zealous to know this God. Did he relax? No! [For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him… What is your own determined purpose?

…[that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly],
and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope] That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body].
This was Saint Paul’s determined purpose for following Christ. What is your own determined purpose for following Christ?
Let us go to the message; DAILY GUIDE FOR ALL THE ELECTS OF GOD WORLD WIDE [BACKGROUND]. Part 1 Volume 2. Preached by The Son of Man on Friday 20^th November, 2020. Page 86 vs. 5-7.
What is your own determined purpose for following Christ? You must have a purpose for whatever you are doing in this life. A PURPOSELESS LIFE IS NOT WORTH LIVING. IT IS A LIFE WITHOUT A TARGET.
Whatever you are doing, if you do not have a purpose for doing it, you have no target and that is a wasteful life.
What is your purpose for following Christ? What is your purpose for knowing who He is? What is your purpose for being personally and practically acquainted with Christ?
What do you intend to achieve in believing Him, in obeying Him, in following Him, amidst troubles, hardship, ridicule and every kind of thing? You endure all like the Lord Jesus Christ. What is your purpose?
These are very pertinent questions we must pause and answer individually. For the sincere answers we give will go a long way in helping us. If you are doing anything in life and you do not have a purpose for doing it, stop it. For you do not have a target.
What is your target? What do you want to achieve? Even if you are following God, what is your target? If it is paradise, immortal body, then do not relax. Make sure that you do not rest till we put on immortality. For that is our target. You should have a target, why you continue to do a certain thing.
Page 88 vs. 12-13. Progressively become more deeply and intimately friendly. You know what it takes for one to be in intimate relationship with somebody.
Saint Paul said I will not rest till I become intimately related to Christ. God is trying to let you see the meaning of intimate. It is somebody that you can speak about, stand for and do anything for. Are you getting it?
You can stand for him. You can talk about him. You can testify about him. You are sure and certain of who you have believed in. Can there be any wind of doctrine or teaching that can buffet you about again? Look at his purpose.
Look at Saint Paul’s purpose. What is your own purpose? Do not wave it off. Attempt this question for your own good. We are talking about the hour that God can have confidence in you and I, like He had confidence in Job. He even told Satan, have you seen my servant Job? Satan said Lord, I have seen him. You built a hedge around him. If not for that hedge, he will deny you.
God said no problem, I will remove the hedge. Go and try him. No matter what you do to him, do not touch his life. Is there anything he did not do to Job? He took the whole wealth of Job, all his children died, his wife walked away from him, Job was left alone with boils all over his body. Did he deny God? He stood gallantly.
In that condition he said, even if worms eat up this my body, in this same body will I stand and see my Lord in the last days. And I will not see him as an enemy, I will see him as a friend.
So God was so confident that there is nothing you will do to Job that will make Job deny Him. That is what God wants to see in you and I. That He will be so confident to say,” go and try him, there is nothing you will do to him that you will ever succeed.
Is there anything Bishop Joe Ukpong can hide from The Son of Man? There is nothing you can hide from Him. He knows my heart and your heart. He does not in any way flatter any human being. Anything you hear Him say about you, that is the earnest truth about that person.
He does not flatter. Why will He flatter me? Who am I? Why will He flatter you? Who are you? Is there any of us that is greater than Him? So let us know that God wants to have that confidence in us.
Page 91 vs. 21-25. And Saint Paul did not want to beat about the bush. He did not want to run in vain. He wants to be deeply acquainted, searching out the wonders associated with that resurrection, wherein He now exerts power over the living and the dead to come back to life again as He came back from the dead.
..And that I may in that same way come to know the power out flowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers].
This is what Saint Paul wanted. I want to know Him the more. The Son of Man said, it is upon this backdrop that many are having problems. You do not want to know The Son of Man. He is a wonder man. Why is He behaving the way He is behaving? Why is He talking the way He is talking? All these things should be a desire in you to know why. That was what was in Saint Paul.
I think it is upon this back drop that we are having problems with The Son of Man. Our inability to settle down to know whether we can grasp a little of this wonder Man,…
You cannot grab all. It is what He wants you to know, that you will grab. Just a little of this wonder man. Why is He behaving the way He is behaving.
He does not play with His own word. He does not want to know whether you are His wife or His child. There is nothing that moves The Son of Man. You cannot sit down and ask yourself the question why.
Whether you like, put billions of naira in front of The Son of Man, it does not move Him.
Our inability to settle down to know whether we can grasp a little of this wonder Man, for He remains a wonder Man until you grasp in-depth knowledge of who He is and why He behaves the way He behaves and acts the way He acts; why He speaks the way He speaks and does things the way He does things. Otherwise, you will still be clashing with Him.
You may conclude that He is an implacable fellow, when you are the one. You may be a burden to yourself, for your inability to take Him at His word, without knowing exactly what He wants you to do. You become a burden to yourself.
Let us now get the meaning of implacable: [1] (of strong negative opinions or feelings) that cannot be changed. [2] (of a person) unwilling to stop opposing somebody or something.
For many are thinking He is implacable. He is just opposing them, talking about a particular person. Everyday He is calling my name, telling me that what I am doing is wrong, do you think that you are the best human being there? Something is wrong with you but you do not want to accept it. You want to say it is The Son of Man. Maybe He hates me.
That is why He asked a question, all these ones that I have been talking good about, especially we the brethren at Akwa-Ibom, what do they have to give to Me? What have we given to Him? It is not because we gave Him anything. It is what He saw in us that He is declaring. It is not that we gave The Son of Man anything, it is what He saw in us.
But when He begins to point at you and tell you that something is there in you, why not get next to yourself. Sit up. Think about yourself. Why is He crying out? Is there anything you will give to Him? All this preaching The Son of Man is preaching, is not meant for Himself and His family. No! We are the ones it is meant for. He came to take us home.
He does not want to go home alone, He wants to help you. What is about to take place, you cannot bear it in this flesh.
The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN) will remain a wonder Man until you grasp an in-depth knowledge of who He is and why He behaves, acts and speaks the way He does. He is Christ the Divine person born among us and living among us.
He is light Himself, living in the light and darkness is no obstacle to Him. Nothing is hidden before Him. He seeth all things, knoweth all things and heareth all things.
Nobody knows what it takes to make you to be a reasonable human being more than He who created you. He knows what is best for you at any given time. But when you are claiming to know more than Him, He will simply withdraw from you and disaster will strike you.
Have you ever heard or seen Him arguing with any human being born of a woman? How can He fight with dust? We are mere dust. You can never see The Son of Man argue with anybody. If He tells you something and you say no to it, you will see Him keep quiet and look up.
Continue your argument, He has no time with you. For He knows that whatever He has spoken must come to pass as He has said it. Nothing can stop it, except you catch the revelation and cry out for His mercy.
He declares what He sees around you or in you or that will happen to you whether you believe it or not. Your unbelief does not stop what He had already declared from coming to pass. Only time vindicates Him.
What He sees, you cannot see. So why doubt Him? When He declares anything about you, if it is negative, fall at His feet and cry for His mercy rather than behave like a giant which you are not and can’t be before Him.
At any moment He is telling you what will happen to you or in you, even though such thought has not entered your mind, do not doubt it for He has already seen the end from the beginning. Let us see an example from the Bible.
Mark 14:26-31 AMP. And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. And Jesus said to them, You will all fall away this night [that is, you will be caused to stumble and will begin to distrust and desert Me], for it stands written, I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.
But after I am raised [to life], I will go before you into Galilee. But Peter said to Him, Even if they all fall away and are caused to stumble and distrust and desert You, yet I will not [do so]!
Have you seen Peter that took Him at His word, now he is no longer taking Him at His word. Over confidence! It is not even over familiarity.
Almighty God said, I wonder what you believe in God that will cause you to have over familiarity. Most of that thing that is happening, do not call it over familiarity, it is over confidence.
Peter became over confident. No matter what others will do, me I will not do it. Na lie! He has to help you. Did we not read it? It is not part of my message, but I do not forget those two scriptures, even if I wake up from sleep. John chapter 4 from 21 in Living Bible especially, and Philippians 2 vs. 13.
God must help you. No matter who you are, do not ever become over confident before God. I need your help at every minute or second, that is my prayer. That is why my pledge has always been, God even in my home, help me. I cannot do without you.
But Peter said to Him, Even if they all fall away and are caused to stumble and distrust and desert You, yet I will not [do so]! And Jesus said to him, Truly I tell you, this very night, before a cock crows twice, you will utterly deny Me [disclaiming all connection with Me] three times.
But [Peter] said more vehemently and repeatedly, [Even] if it should be necessary for me to die with You, I will not deny or disown You! And they all kept saying the same thing.
Look at what took place there. Peter forgot his experience with the Master when he took Him at His word and threw in the net, and what happened. At this point he became over confident, rather than ask for the Master’s help,he said more vehemently and repeatedly that even if it was necessary for him to die with the Master, He will not deny or disown Him.
That was challenging God instead of taking Him at His word. Be very careful for spirits do not die, but live to anoint people. No man is above God’s word. No matter the position you occupy in this Ministry of Christ, it does not place you above His word. What matters is your full and complete obedience to His words.
Do not be over confident rather humble yourself at His feet.
Have it behind your mind that you cannot be saved by kissing the Faith. You can only be saved if you abide in the Faith.

When I am referring to God, I am referring Jehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I am referring to the God that is revealed in our own day, the Elohim walking on two feet, that came in the Clouds of Heaven, the Son of Man, the only True and Living God. There is no other God except Him. That is why the Book of Revelation introduced Him as the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, He that was dead and now He is alive forever, and holds the key of Heaven and Hell, Hethat is to come, the Lord God Almighty — that is the God we are referring to.

– THE SON OF MAN THE CONCLUSION OF THE WHOLE MATTER Pg. 37 vs. 24-25

HE THAT OPERATED WITHOUT TIME AND SPACE IS NOW WITH HUMAN BEING

Let us proceed to the message; AS THE EAST IS FAR FROM THE WEST. Preached by The Son of Man on 23^rd September, 2012. Page 105 vs. 35-41.

Do not ever taste this Faith, do not kiss this Faith. Eat this Faith, drink this Faith, swallow this Faith, though it may be very bitter in your mouth but there in your stomach,…
Remember that this Faith is a man, and this Man is the word of God. So, once you take His word, you are eating it. And it is not going into your stomach, it is going to your heart.
Eat this Faith, drink this Faith, swallow this Faith, though it may be very bitter in your mouth but there in your stomach, anyway the food which The Son of Man gives does not enter the stomach, it enters the heart.
We have seen the star, we have come to worship Him. Cheer up for there is hope for the hopeless. We have seen the star; we have come to worship him page 97 vs. 4. The prophet was seeing it afar off as something that was fulfilling immediately.
The Son of Man has already come from Glory and is revealing himself for the past few years to his church in mercy.
From 1992 December down, now we are here, The Son of Man in his church appeared from Glory revealing Himself for the past few years to his church in mercy. Has it not come to pass?
You search the scriptures because you think that you can get eternal life from reading the Bible. You refuse to come to The Son of Man; Apostle Peter Odoemena, the revealed Christ in your day that I may consider you for eternal life.
Page 117 vs. 33-38. Look up to me all the ends of the Earth. I am your Saviour and besides me, you have no other Saviour. I am the beginning and the ending of everything.
I will repeat the words of king David in whose throne I am standing as the root and offspring of David and say to all of you like he said. “AS FAR AS THE EAST IS FROM THE WEST, SO FAR HAVE I REMOVED ALL YOUR INIQUITIES FOR MY NAME’S SAKE”.
For I know your frame. I have done that for my Name’s sake for I know your frame. I know what you are made up of, you are mere dust and the Almighty can not wrestle with dust. You are the dust of the earth. I fashioned you to my taste, and for my purpose.
Do you think that God will continue to overlook our iniquities every time? That is what He means when He says, I raise up my sword, I bring it down. But one day, He will cut into pieces all that are found guilty.
Whatever the Almighty God does, He is doing it for His Name’s sake and nothing else. He is light and darkness cannot obstruct Him from doing what He wants to do. So desire to dwell in the light. Desire to be with Him. Create this desire in your heart.
Pray to Him to help you, to create it in your heart, for it takes God to create anything in our heart. Is He not the one who gave us a believing heart? God gives you a believing heart. There is nothing impossible for God to create for you. Say God, create the desire in my heart. And watch whether He will not answer you in sincerity.
RESIST THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE EVIL Volume 1. Page 173 vs. 93-100. This is so that you may know and believe that I am He, and after me cometh no other, for I know where your problem lies.
It has been the problem of your fore father’s, for you have not reneged from the route they toed. Instead of believing God, they were judging God. They were querying God. They were using their mental faculties and all that they can put together, not knowing that their days here on Earth are limited.
How can you use your limited faculty to judge a limitless being. Can you ever limit the knowledge of this Man? Have you ever seen somebody that, if he comes among lawyers, He will speak to the point that even the lawyers will be astonished on where He got His knowledge from. Till when they went for the burial of late Bishop Ebenezer, an intellectual man had to get annoyed and say, how can you tell me that this man did not go to school. You people are liars, and he walked away.
Were we telling lies? He did not attend any university, but when He sits down with you, any discipline you have gone through in the university, He will bring them out until you will be wondering how did this Man know this things.
Was it not the same thing in the days of Jesus Christ? When He faced lawyers, they could not even answer His questions. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. For He has appeared now again in a new name. the Resurrected Body.
Instead of believing God, they were judging God. They were querying God. They were using their mental faculties and all that they can put together, not knowing that their days here on Earth are limited.
They were using limited mentality to judge an infinite divinity. I raise my hands to the sky. Using limited mentality, limited intellect. You are using the intellect that is allotted to you through time and space.
That is what you are using to judge the Divine person, the divinity who operates without time and without space, but is being made manifest in your own day to assume time and space, for He met you as a human being, and He wants to save you, being a human being.
He met you as a human being, and since He wants to save you, He now became a human being. But has it stopped Him from being the limitless one? He is still that limitless God. So do not use your brain, do not use your thinking, for His thoughts and His ways are too far above our own.
Anything He is telling you, do not go thinking about it. Just do what He is telling you to do. For His word is yes and amen. If you try to reason it, you are going to fail. For you cannot use your knowledge that is limited to find out why a limitless being is telling you to do what He is telling you.
He that operated without time and space is now with human beings, who are allotted time and space. Now, He assumed time and space, but His longevity and eternity is enshrined in [oh!] His incarnation.
When I will be talking about incarnation, I know many will fall away.
I AM THE DIVINE INCARNATE IN THIS GENERATION. AND THAT IS THE WILL OF THE FATHER FOR THE SON OF MAN, FOR THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THE SON OF MAN CAN COME TO YOU. IF HE IS NOT DIVINELY INCARNATED, HE CANNOT COME TO YOU, AND YOU CANNOT GO TO HIM. IT THEN MEANS YOU ARE TOTALLY LOST. AMEN.
That is why at this hour that we are living in, anything you hear from Him, just walk by it. That was why He told us at the beginning, you do not need to understand me. Just keep following, at the end you will understand.
Do we not have a song that told us that when we cross over, we will understand many things. Yes, by and by when the morning comes. When the Saints have gathered, we will understand why many things happened the way it happened. Because by that time, we have crossed over and put on immortality. He has given us a new mind and a new body, in a new heaven. Is it not scripture?
In closing, let us go to the message: DAILY GUIDE FOR ALL THE ELECTS OF GOD WORLD WIDE [BACKGROUND] Part 1 Volume 2. Page 114 vs. 29-35.
I AM NOT ONLY A TEACHER OF GOOD WORKS, I AM EQUALLY A DOER OF GOOD WORKS, FOR I KNOW ALL THE REQUIREMENTS FOR ENTRY INTO PARADISE, FOR THAT HAS BEEN MY HOME RIGHT FROM CREATION. THEREUNTO I AM ORDAINED. AMEN!
I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT ANY OTHER PERSON. I AM A CITIZEN OF THAT STATE, THAT COMMONWEALTH. MY HOMELAND IS HEAVEN.
No matter what the devil decides to do, we are going to heaven. No matter how the devil will war against us, God must surely give us victory through Christ our Lord, who had already overcome and conferred the victory unto us.
If He was defeated, we shall be defeated. Was He defeated? That is why we cannot be defeated. If He lost the battle, we will lose the battle. When the battle is over, we must surely wear the crown in this new city. New Jerusalem.
“But we are citizens of the state (commonwealth, homeland) which is in heaven, and from it also we earnestly and patiently await [the coming of] the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] Savior, WHO WILL TRANSFORM AND FASHION ANEW THE BODY OF OUR HUMILIATION to conform to and be like the body of His glory and majesty, by exerting that power…
‘ That power is in the Gospel. That power is in the word of God. The transforming power which God exerts on all the believers, which brings that permanent change that ushers us into Eternal Life.
Christ our Lord, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN), has already overcome Satan and conferred the victory unto us. What do we do? We must defend this victory conferred upon us by Christ our Lord and Master, till the end. And we all know that the best form of defense is attack.
What do we use in attacking our enemy? The word which He stored for us so that we will not perish. Our inner strength remains the word of God which we stored in our heart.
What if you did not allow the word to settle in your heart? You do not need a prophet to tell you what to do now. If you did not store it before, store it now. You missed it before, do not miss it now.
This is why Almighty God, while talking to the youths said, do not allow the disappointment of yesterday to affect your today. For as long as we are alive, we can improve. As long as we are alive, improvement is for the living, not for the dead. I can improve. I can change.
Look at the thief on the cross. At the dying minute he improved, he changed. A sinner became a saint on his dying cross. We will see him any day you and I are translated, we will see the thief.
Did He tell him to go and be baptized? So let us understand that as long as I am alive, I can improve. That is why God said, forget yesterday.
If you did not store the word yesterday, begin to store it now. If you did not store water in your house and they said the water is going to go off on Saturday, you still have from now till Saturday to begin to store that water so that you will have enough. So why are you thinking about the past.
But if you stored the word, you will only need to top up. While that person who did not store has a big work to do. I will continue to do that work so that that inner strength will be there. If you do not store, the inner strength will not be there.
Page 118 vs. 39-44. Spiritually, many have fallen asleep already. Only a few are now awake spiritually.
Many have been dispirited and demoralized by their bankrupt conditions. They are spiritually and morally bankrupt because the devil is not giving them a breathing space.
It is not that the devil is coming from anywhere. They are the people fomenting it within themselves by suggesting everything counter to their brain and to their mind; And by evolving new ideas of doing evil by resorting to all forms of craftiness and subtlety…
Who is doing it? They are the ones. There is no devil coming from outside. It is you that is thinking this thing. You do not want to stop doing it. You want to continue in your way. You are the one causing yourself to be bankrupt.
When somebody is bankrupt, what does it mean? No cash. Na you cause your problem. Instead of storing the word, you refused. That is why you are bankrupt. Because of all your thoughts and ideas. And if you continue that way, you perish.
But the bible said, if you hear His word today, do not harden your heart. Take the step now and we will all rejoice. Everybody will be shouting, I want to be like the thief, you better be like the thief now.
This God is a wonderful God, just follow Him. He said nobody will regret for following Odoemena Peter.
And by evolving new ideas of doing evil by resorting to all forms of craftiness and subtlety contrary to the revealed truth, thinking they are circumventing God’s judgment. They bring more of the judgment upon themselves.
They incur the wrath of God, for they are woefully ignorant that God is of a righteous eye to overlook evil. No matter how small that evil is, God must bring it to judgment. That is why there is a need for this Daily Guide where God will supply you with the Balm of Gilead which you will use as an ointment.
Wherever there is any snake bite, you apply it there and the Lord will use it to bring you back to the fold or else many are likely to be destroyed at the end.
Do not slumber O! Children of God.
Finally, Page 122 vs. 51. I want us to take this advice from the Lord deep down in our heart as we close.
AND THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN KEEP VIGIL OVER YOUR LIFE, OVER YOUR SOUL IS TO REMAIN ACTIVE IN THE WORD. REMAIN MEDITATING. REMAIN PRAYING. REMAIN STUDYING. DO NOT EVER RELENT.
With this word of advice from our Lord and Master, I say remain blessed eternally in Him.
