ARE YOU SURE AND CERTAIN THAT YOU ARE IN THE NUMBER SAVED BY GOD’S ELECTION OF GRACE? Volume 3 of 3

ARE YOU SURE AND CERTAIN THAT YOU ARE IN THE NUMBER SAVED BY GOD’S ELECTION OF GRACE? Volume 3 of 3 Preached ON Sunday, 19th March 2023 AT THE VOICE OF GOD STUDIO

Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe Anambra State, Nigeria BY Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN The Real Teaching Priest

Transcribed by Deacon David Mbah Students’ Fellowship, MOUAU, Abia State

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. ²⁹For those whom He foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand], He also destined from the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into the image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become the Firstborn among many Brethren. ³⁰And 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). And those whom He justified, He also glorified [raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being]. ³¹What then shall we say to [all] this? If God is for us, who [can be] against us? [Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?]

Romans 8:28-31 Amplified version

Christ is the mystery of God revealed and Christ is nothing but the Anointed One, the Messiah, the Saviour. Ask Me the universal Name of the Elohim, I will say it is Christ. Not Jesus but Christ, the Sovereign Spirit that dwelleth in all the Prophets of old which made them God’s express representative. The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena is the visible representation of the invisible God for one reason: That Christ dwelleth in Him. Only through HIM can Christ be made visible. That God is putting on flesh today, God is dwelling in a Temple not made with human hands, but a Body He prepared for Himself. He has made Me His own chosen Vessel where He will dwell; From where He will reach the entire world; not because of what Brother Odoemena did or what He did not do. Not that He merited it. No.

THE SON OF MAN

BE ON THE RED ALERT; Preached on Sunday 30^th September, 2012 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 188 vs. 55 – 56

WE ARE ENJOYING GOD’S UNMERITED FAVOUR

Pastor Chizoba: A round of applause. We thank God for His Grace.

It is the same unmerited favour that THE SON OF MAN could remain alive till today and that you could have Him in person for your Teacher up till this day, full of strength and vigour. Is it not amazing? It is amazing, even to Me.
It is not because of what I have eaten or what drink I have taken, for I have taken nothing. But I am always drunken by the Word. My strength is derived from the Word and not from food, nor from drink or wine or anything.
Believe it if you can. It takes amazing grace to keep Me standing on two feet here, walking and talking, and still with the stamina to continue. I BELIEVE THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH.
So He shall be your strength if only you can anchor your Faith in Him. When you see supernatural, acknowledge it. It is absolutely supernatural. That is all.
Thank you LORD. Are you sure; Am I sure of being in that number saved by God’s election of grace? Before I read the Message before me, how do we know we are in the number? Read Romans Chapter 6 verse 16 in different translations.
Romans 6:16, Living Bible. ^[16]Don’t you realize that you can choose your own master? You can choose sin (with death) or else obedience (with acquittal). The one to whom you offer yourself—he will take you and be your master, and you will be his slave.
King James version. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? The person you yield yourself unto.
Amplified version. ¹⁶Do you not know that if you continually surrender yourselves to anyone to do his will, you are the slaves of him whom you obey, whether that be to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience which leads to righteousness (right doing and right standing with God)?
Good News Bible. Surely you know that when you surrender yourselves as slaves to obey someone, you are in fact the slaves of the master you obey — either of sin, which results to death, or of obedience, which results in being put right with God.
New International Version. ¹⁶Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey–whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
This is how you know whether that God’s natural instinct is in you. The person you yield yourself to is the one that controls you. That is why it is not something you decide by your own will power. If you are a Seed of God, you will never feel fulfilled until you please God.
I hope you are understanding what we are saying. Anytime a Seed of God fulfills the demands of God, automatically, he has a sense of fulfilment. The heart begins to rejoice exceedingly that it has done the will of God. Any day he walks in disobedience, he will remain troubled.
Take note! Take note of this thing that happened now. It requires its own UPS. Did you get what I am saying? It requires a new UPS for this PA system, lest we burn it.
It is cheaper to buy a UPS with ₦5,000 or ₦6,000 than to buy this thing which is more than two hundred thousand naira. The cost of this one is more than two hundred thousand naira. The other one is more than one hundred thousand naira. I hope you are getting what I am saying.
If by Tuesday, markets open, we are going to purchase one UPS of not less than I,000Amps. In short, tell Pastor Thomas.
What are we saying? Once you are a child of God, until you fulfill the will of God; until you obey God, you will never have that fulfilled life. You will never rest.
If you fulfill God’s will, there is a kind of joy that is always coming from within the heart.
Inner joy! Inner peace! This is because there is no condemnation there again.
But peradventure you make a mistake and become another person’s servant, just like the Bible said, “You yield to another spirit” and also as God has been hammering on those that are yielding to the spirits [idols and gods] of their lands [communities] and the spirits of their fathers and all those things.
If you are a child of God and you are deceived to that extent, nobody will tell you what to do.
Whenever you hear the Word of God, your heart will faint. If you see children of God, you will be walking coldly. You lack boldness to express your Faith openly because of your infidelity [unfaithfulness].
Let us read something based on the experience of our fathers. Let us consider that of Adam from THE FORGOTTEN BOOKS OF EDEN edited by Rutherford H. Platt, Jr. [1926] Volume 1: Pg. 123 from verse 3.
³Then, Adam, when he was raised, said, “O God, Thou hast burnt and taken from us the corn. Thou hadst given us, and Thou hast emptied out the bucket of water. And Thou hast sent Thy angels, who have waylaid us from the corn-field. Wilt Thou make us perish? If this be from Thee, O God, then take away our souls; but punish us not.”
⁴Then God said to Adam, “I did not burn down the wheat, and I did not pour the water out of the bucket, and I did not send My angels to lead thee astray.
Watch the first statement. Man accusing God.
Accusing God falsely.
That is why God said you should blame yourself and not God. [BLAME YOURSELF AND NOT GOD was preached on 30^th September 2007 by The Almighty God, THE SON OF MAN, Apostle Peter Odoemena].
When you sit down quietly, you will find out where the disconnection took place.
Your desires. They are carnal.
They all came from your selfish and carnal desires. And then because God is a living human being, tabernacling in a Man, He was there to answer His own. If He were an imaginary God, he would not reply to Adam immediately.
At all!
God replied immediately just like THE SON OF MAN normally says, “I thank God that I am alive. And if not that I am here, many people would have said too many things and attribute them to Me.”
God continued. ⁵“But it is Satan, thy master who did it; he to whom thou hast subjected thyself; [Yes!] My commandment being meanwhile set aside. He it is, who burnt down the corn, and poured out the water, and who has led thee astray; and all the promises he has made you, verily are but feint, and deceit, and a lie. ⁶“But now, O Adam, thou shalt acknowledge My good deeds done to thee.”
You see! Sometimes, we may yoke ourselves with too many things, and turn around to blame it on God. Whose servant are you? Who is your Master?
Remember that only those who are chosen by God’s election of grace will survive, for Satan will waylay everybody on this Straight Path we are moving on.
All of us are moving on the Straight Path, and not on the broad road. Satan [Iblȋs] said he is going to waylay us there from front and back, from right to left and in all the four corners.
References: [1] Surah 7:16-17, ¹⁶He (Iblis) said: since you have led me astray, (I swear that) I will also sit on your Straight Path to waylay the children of Adam till I cause them to deviate from the Path of truth. ¹⁷I will assuredly approach them from their front, from their rear, from their right and from their left and consequently you will not find most of them grateful” [Dr. Mohammad Tahir-ul-Qadri Translation]
He vowed that he will make sin very alluring; make sin look very light and pleasurable in the eyes of all of us. And that if he does that, nobody will worship God or listen to Him or take His Word seriously, except those Allah has already decided to choose for Himself by His own election of Grace.
[2] Surah 15:39-40. ³⁹(Iblis) said: “O my Lord! because Thou hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair-seeming to them on the earth, and I will put them all in the wrong,- ⁴⁰Except Thy servants among them, sincere and purified (by Thy Grace).” [Abdullah Yusuf Ali Translation]
[3] Surah 17:62.⁶²[Iblîs (Satan)] said: “See? This one whom You have honoured above me, if You give me respite (keep me alive) to the Day of Resurrection, I will surely seize and mislead his offspring (by sending them astray) all but a few!” [Hilali-Khan Translation]
[4] Surah 38:82-83. ⁸²(Iblis) said: “Then, by Thy Power, I will put them all in the wrong,- ⁸³“Except Thy Servants amongst them, sincere and purified (by Thy Grace).” [Abdullah Yusuf Ali Translation]
These are those people the Bible recorded that in the last days, the devil will deceive all mankind, EXCEPT THE ELECT.
References: [1] Matthew 24:24. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very Elect. KJV
[2] ²⁴For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the Elect (God’s chosen ones). AMP
Who are these Elect? Those God foreknew, handpicked, selected, chose for Himself, for reasons best known to Him. They are included in those people He knew aforetime.
Ephesians 1 from verse 2, Amplified version. ²May grace (God’s unmerited favour)… God’s what? [unmerited favour] Is it not what we are handling? Is it not wherein we are saved? If you say you merit what is happening to you or what is coming to you; that you merited it, or that it is your right and that you worked for it, go and examine yourself again, for you have not performed better than others. Why has God shown interest in you?
²May grace (God’s unmerited favour) and spiritual peace [which means peace with God and harmony, unity, and undisturbedness] be yours from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
³May blessing (praise, laudation, and eulogy) be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) Who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual (given by the Holy Spirit) blessing in the heavenly realm!
Look at the person Paul was addressing. See Him there [The LORD pointed Brethren to the Original Body as revealed to us].
⁴Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own]… He actually picked us out as what? His own and for Himself. …in Christ before the foundation of the world,… Have you seen where it took place?
…that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart for Him)… That we should be what? Consecrated and set apart for God and not for yourself. You see why you must be thankful to God Who counted you worthy, putting you into His own Family after the counsel of His own will.
If He had consulted people to know who and who should serve the LORD’s interest here, not even one of you will be remembered or nominated.
Common ceremonies we normally have, commit it into the hands of the Elders to choose people, who they think will follow us in any trip or join in what we are doing, watch the names they will exclude.
Any name they do not like; any name they hate will not be there. Those ones they do not like; those ones they hate for that trip and for that occasion may be God’s delight.
That is why, oftentimes, God says, “Submit the list. I want to see it.” He will cancel too many names there and put names they could not have remembered even till eternity because some will possess it as their birthright, “If we are not there, who else should be there?”
⁴Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated and set apart for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in love.
⁵For He foreordained us (destined us, planned in love for us) to be adopted (revealed) as His own children through Jesus Christ,…
Note the word “ADOPTION”, which means that they never belonged to Him biologically. They were not in His bloodline, but He decided, being the Almighty to do that because He wanted to.
…in accordance with the purpose of His will [because it pleased Him and was His kind intent]– ⁶[So that we might be] to the praise and the commendation of His glorious grace (favour and mercy), which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.
⁷In Him we have redemption (deliverance and salvation) through His blood, the remission (forgiveness) of our offenses (shortcomings and trespasses), in accordance with the riches and the generosity of His gracious favour,
⁸Which He lavished upon us in every kind of wisdom and understanding (practical insight and prudence), ⁹Making known to us the mystery (secret) of His will (of His plan, of His purpose). [And it is this:] In accordance with His good pleasure (His merciful intention) which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him,
¹⁰[He planned] for the maturity of the times… Maturity of the times! For everything, there is a time appointed. Until that time matures, He will not do anything. He works with time. He programmes all His activities.
When the LORD Jesus was called to come and do something supernatural, he told the mother, “Please can you leave Me woman, for My time is not yet come.”
All of you can do things anytime you want, but it is not so with Me. I can only act at a time My Father wants Me to act, for My food is to do the will of He that sent Me and accomplish it.
¹⁰[He planned] for the maturity of the times and the climax of the ages to unify all things and head them up and consummate them in Christ, [both] things in heaven and things on the earth.
You see why every action of a Man of God is motivated divinely and has a divine orientation, a divine foundation. Somebody by the side may not know when the whole thing started nor how it took off simply because he is blind, not recognizing the Personality He is having dealings with as He that brought everything into existence, labelled everybody and determines the course every man will take.
That was why he set out time for Saint Paul. Saint Paul was very violent and injurious to the Faith before his time came. When the time for his own salvation came, God turned his heart to His favour. You can read his account there.

THE SON OF MAN

COMMITMENT (The Secret of Achieving Greatness); Preached on Sunday 14^th February 2010 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 64 vs. 50

THIS HOUR CALLS FOR SOBER REFLECTION

The Message is “GOD’S HABITATION PROVIDES YOU ASYLUM” That means that the dwelling place of God provides us refuge—a place we can hide and nothing will happen to us.

That is why God has already taken the time, His time, even to revisit it this morning, pointing to us God’s habitation, the dwelling place, the Tabernacle of God.
He has reminded us that it does not mean that the entire children of God in this flesh will assemble in one building. No! He made us to understand that wherever you are located, as far as you are numbered among the Elect, chosen by God’s own grace, you are hiding yourself inside this Tabernacle built without hands which God prepared for himself, where He is dwelling.
And that is why we have all been observers of what is happening in the world today.
Remain blessed fellow Saints of God. It is another wonderful day the Lord our God have given us the privilege to see, which means He has not finished with us.
Every truth from God frightens. That is why truth is a heavy milestone, and not every shoulder can accept it without sighing.
Nobody can hate God. Nobody can ever disappoint God. Nobody can ever fail God. You can only fail yourself. You can only disappoint yourself. You can only hate yourself.
Why? God does not depend on you for anything. God is not seeking anything from your hand. God is not pinning His hope of existence on you. But you can do nothing without Him. You are holistically dependent on Him.
I want us all to pause and meditate seriously on those facts of Life from our Lord and Master.
Then, look into the life you are living right at this very moment. Do you own that life? Do you know how it will stop? Do you know the day it will stop?
These are pertinent questions we need to meditate upon.
Pause and look into that life you are living right now.
There are two spirits that governs the affairs of men. [Sure!] The spirit of God and the spirit of the devil. Which of these two spirits is governing your affairs? Stop and examine yourself, for it is all over.
Our Lord and Master said, “If you want to survive, see things through the eyes of God. When you see things through the eyes of God, you reason with the mind of God. And when you reason with the mind of God, you know all things”.
When you begin to see things in the light of the truth, that is the eyes of God. For truth is God. Any other way is the devil using you against yourself.
You are aiding the devil and helping the devil to destroy you before your time. In many ways, we help the devil to destroy us. Brethren, is it a lie? In many ways we help the devil to destroy and kill us.
Our inability to see things through the eyes of God which is the light of the truth, and to reason with the mind of God, is our greatest undoing.
Turn with me to the Bible. Acts 17:30-31, KJV. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because He hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that Man Whom He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised Him from the dead.
Is that not the matter at stake?
Iwant us all to take note that the times of ignorance which the Lord our God overlooked, is past. So, now He is commanding all men and women everywhere to repent.
What is repentance? Turning away completely and never to go back. Change your heart and your vision. Take the right path created and approved by the Almighty God.
Why is the Almighty God commanding all to repent? There is a day the Almighty God slated to put an end to human rebellion by the Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN), Whom He has ordained; The Resurrected Body, The Holy and righteous dwelling place of The Almighty. He and the Father are one. That is, the arithmetic of God and not of man.
The Mighty hand of the Lord God Almighty is against the world and therefore He has stirred up great trouble that has started already in the whole world.
He said that in the midst of the trouble, when it has become unbearable to us, it is that time He will transform our mortal bodies and we put on immortality—the indestructible estate, wherein we shall stay and watch the entire human race ravaged by fire, from the face of the Almighty whom they have blasphemed, ridiculed, scoffed and mocked at all these years, because of the blindness of their hearts.
Luke 12:54-57, KJV. And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is. And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time? Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
How is it that many of us cannot discern the hour we are living in? We could gaze at the cloud and predict that it will rain, and it will rain. We gaze at the cloud and we predict that it will be sunshine, and it will be. But unfortunately, a good number of us cannot, through events of the hour, predict exactly the hour we are in and what it calls for.
Many are not also paying strict attention to the Voice of our Master who is clearly giving us the reality of the hour we are in and what it calls for.
Hence, if we are not careful, the D-Day will take us by surprise. The Almighty God will only give a helping hand unto the end, to those who are waiting for the whole translation of our mortal bodies according to His promise. As many as are watching and waiting unto prayer, watching His Word as He fulfills His promises on a daily basis.
The Almighty God will also give a helping hand by waking up the sincere hearts that fell asleep spiritually in this hour.
But it will take the superlative amazing Grace of God to help those that have given themselves over to merriments and to party spirits, eating and drinking, failing to understand that all those carnal activities are not what the hour calls for.
This hour calls for sober reflections. It calls for pausing and thinking. It calls for self re-examination and self assessment to know whether we are holding on to the profession of our Faith or we have slipped off ignorantly and are still fooling ourselves.
The Word from the Almighty we are hearing frequently is enough to open our eyes of understanding more and more, to illuminate our hearts the more, and to help us to understand what the hour calls for.
Our earnest and sincere prayers should remain that our Father and Lord should never permit us to have our ways, for we have had it enough and it never yielded any dividend. It never helped us one bit.
Revelation 21:3, KJV. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.
From the scripture we just read, I want you to take note of this statement saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men”. “IS”- present continuous tense, not “will be”.
Almighty God who is the Elohim has a holy and righteous dwelling place which is in the midst of the true Bride. If up till this very moment you can not recognize the Holy and righteous dwelling place of God, you are living in ignorance. And ignorance is a self-inflicted injury; a deliberate misfortune, because when you decide to be ignorant, you will be ignorant.
It is from your daily character and attitude towards the word of God that tells everybody around you that you do not recognize the Holy and righteous dwelling place of the Elohim, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN).
Whatever Words, instructions and commands that goes forth from Him does not concern you. For that reason, you do not take them seriously and you don’t act upon them as it is expected. It becomes clear that you are still imagining God as an invisible Being who cannot see, talk nor hear.
Therefore, you cannot hide anywhere to do evil and wicked things without Him knowing. But you are fooling and deceiving yourself.
A true child born into a godly family does not hide things from His parents. Why? [1] He knows deep down in him that without them, he would not have been in the world. That tells him that they are his first God that leads him to the true and living God. [2] It is clear to him that if he runs into trouble, they will be in the position to help him out. [3] He will not want to bring shame or disgrace to his family.
So it is with a true child of God. He does not hide anything from his Father Who is the Almighty in His righteous and holy tabernacle. For without him, he would not be in existence. He is his only hope, helper and asylum.
What can somebody hide from God? Somebody Who has in His hands the thoughts of my heart. He knows the imagination of the heart.
He knows his father for if he has seen the Tabernacle, he has seen the father.
For the Tabernacle is among men. You do not need to run to and fro to look for the Tabernacle again.
So, he can never joke or take lightly His Words, instructions and commands. That is why, once his father speaks anything negative about him, he can never rest until he has made it right with him, to change the negative voice.
That is pure truth.
Join me as we consider this topic; GOD’S HABITATION PROVIDES YOU ASYLUM. God has a dwelling place Who is Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN). Is there anybody who is in the Bride Ministry or the Bridal movement, the Faith of Christ, who does not know God’s dwelling place?
Turn with me to the Message; BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Preached by The Son of Man on Friday 22^nd July, 2022; Page 55 vs. 4-6.
If by this night, you have not been acquainted with God’s dwelling place, God’s TEMPLE and God’s TABERNACLE- you do not know where He is and He is resting [oh no!] you are lost. Completely lost. If you have any doubt as to whether that could be the place of His habitation, you are lost. Completely lost.
THAT HIS HABITATION CAN ONLY PROVIDE YOU ASYLUM, WHEN YOU HAVE BELIEVED IN THAT HABITATION, DOUBTING NOTHING.
This is because doubt is both a visible and invisible sign of unbelief. Doubt takes place in your heart. You might be giving the impression that you are with us when you are not with us. So whatever that is making you to doubt, it has already put you out of God’s salvation.
When you keep on murmuring, complaining and grumbling about the habitation of God, you have already stopped your journey. You pegged your journey. God did not peg it. You must know your point of perfection, justification, salvation, righteousness, holiness and asylum.
Even your redemption.
For it is all in the man [Christ], Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN). For without Him, there is no perfection, no justification, no salvation, no righteousness, no holiness and no asylum.
Turn with me to the message; ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE? Preached by The Son of Man on 12^th October, 2011; Page 23 vs. 1-11. You must know your point of perfection and salvation. You must know all these things. If you watch Noah, Noah did nothing than walking with God. Noah walked with God and then that became his perfection. Is it not true?
Noah walked with God and was declared perfect. You see! God proclaimed him perfect for walking with Him.
That was why Jesus Christ made it clear, “He that is not with me is against me. [Amen!] He that is not gathering is scattering”.
So, it is the same spirit. Do you know that this Message has not been opened? It has not been opened. Three Messages at a time. I got them last night and gave them to FearGod to go and pack. See the content of this one. God is great and must be greatly feared.
That was why Jesus Christ made it clear, “He that is not with me is against me. He that is not gathering is scattering”.
Who can believe that this Message has not been opened? Three messages came from one source last night. And I gave them to FearGod to go and pack upstairs, intending that we must consider at least one.
I used the back of one to document Scriptures without opening to know the contents. And I thank God I did it before Pastor Chizoba this morning. I had no other script before Me and I decided to use what I brought for Fellowship to write, using His Biro^® pen.
Do you know what it takes to walk with somebody? To follow the person’s footstep, follow him closely. If Noah had been murmuring and complaining, do you think he would have continued walking with God?
God would have dropped him.
The same thing happened to Abraham. The perfection of Abraham was no other thing than, that he was able to bring his family to the fear of the Lord. He withheld nothing. He obeyed God even to the point of sacrificing his only son. He did not complain, he did not murmur. In other words, he walked with God.
What can you say about Job? Job questioned God in diverse ways, but was declared perfect in that he walked with God.
If you watch Zachariah and Elizabeth as recorded in the book of Saint Luke, husband and wife. They did nothing only that they walked with God.
Are you walking with God? Are you walking with God or are you walking alone? When you are murmuring, complaining and grumbling, you have already stopped your journey. You pegged your journey, God did not peg it.
Be very very careful, many did not understand this message. Go home and think about it. Are you walking with God?
Walking with God means following His footsteps. Not going ahead of him and not trailing very much behind. No!

All of us that are still alive till today, we have to be very very cautious. We have to be very very cautious. We are living at a time when everything is failing mankind. If there be any other thing that is distracting your attention from the salvation plan of God, which I have revealed to all of you, that thing will turn out to be your destroyer.

THE SON OF MAN

RE-INTRODUCTION OF THE DIVINE PERSONALITY IN THE SON OF MAN [Tribute to Teacher James Nnadi] Preached on Sunday 15^th November, 2020; Pg. 36 vs. 21-22

TAKE DEFENSIBLE ACTIONS

In spite of our sufferings and troubles, all true children of God remain the happiest people in the world.

Why? Almighty God in His holy and righteous tabernacle is in our midst. Almighty God has remained the only Source of happiness and joy.
Money does not give joy and happiness, [Sure!!!] but God gives joy and happiness. To be born as a child of God is a privilege.
It is a great favour from God to answer His child.
It is Grace for one to answer a child of God, for you contributed nothing to that. Being a child of God, you have many, many advantages. We have much greater advantage than that of the earthly Kings.
Turn with me to the message; PUT ME IN REMEMBRANCE Part 2 volume 1. Preached by The Son of Man on 5^th September, 2004. Page 10 vs. 7-10. I am very grateful that Almighty God counted Me worthy, putting Me into this Ministry. It is not my right; it is just His Grace that has ushered me into this Holy Family.
You know, to be born as a prince is a privilege. It is grace for one to answer a prince [or a princess], for you contributed nothing to that.
Brother Amobi you are a prince, but did you contribute anything? [Nothing!] Is it not amazing grace? All the people in Ogidi, do they have the privilege? I am giving you a physical illustration.
What is more? Because you are a prince [or princess], you have advantages, many many advantages. For anywhere you go in Anambra state, you can enter any office, you can see the governor, for it is a matter of getting there and say, “I am prince Amobi of Ogidi” and that settles the matter.
If a man on Earth can exercise such a wonderful privilege just to introduce himself, “I am prince so, so and so”, and that is all, can you imagine the son of God or the daughter of God [I mean] that we have greater advantage than that of the earthly Kings.
We are serving the only Living God that can protect the lives of His people. Remember that this great God we are serving is ever mindful of His own. His eyes are upon His own.
He is ever mindful of His own. His eyes are upon His own. He does not take another man’s property. And we have it in a Message, YOU ARE GOD’S OWN PROPERTY [Preached on 5^th May 2013 by THE SON OF MAN].
Whatever He is promising is for His own people only. So, we must be alert to our responsibility towards our God, our loving and caring Father.
Keep no secret from Him because you know deep down in you that there is nothing that can be hidden from Him. For everything is plain before Him. No hiding place.
How can you be ashamed of making confessions to your father who is your God? If you are ashamed of making confessions to your father, that is a sure indicator that He is not your Father. [At all!]
There are too many people that are covering their own sins, because they actually do not recognize Him as God. And therefore, they do not trust Him.
Turn again with me to the Message; BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 34 vs. 13-18. Proverbs 28:13, KJV. He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. That’s all! If you cover up your sins, you will never receive mercy from God. And you will never prosper. But when you confess your sin and forsake it, you receive mercy from THE LORD.
Watch all you have been reading from your handsets. They are individuals. They are human beings from among us. They are not ashamed of making their confessions public to go round the whole world, so that God will show them mercy. And they have vowed before the whole world that they will never go that way again.
But when you say because of pride and because of shame, you cover your own up, keep it to yourself. God is not interested. Look at these people. God has already extended His mercy, His pardon and His forgiveness to them.
You have to repent. Run away from your sin completely. Sin is wickedness. Unbelief is wickedness. Run away from it completely. God does not compel anybody to worship Him. Worship of God is a very strict business which you must carry out by Divine Revelation—personal revelation.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 36 vs. 20-24. If God is not helping you, there are too many things about your life you dare not let another person know. True or false? This is because a human being who is not willing to be saved, is an expert in keeping unnecessary secrets. And that thing which you call secrets shall be made open tomorrow. Whether you like it or not, events will open it. [Sure!!!]
The moment your conscience is not good, you know you have sinned. You know you are not acting in agreement with the Word of God you received. You know that there is no Scripture or doctrine you can use to defend your action. [That is pure truth!] Automatically, you are guilty. [Pure truth!]
That is why God said that we must take defensible steps in all we do. Take defensible actions.
Any action you are taking; anything you are doing; any word that is proceeding out of your mouth; any reaction which you cannot defend using the doctrines of Christ you have received, which you do not have the permission given to you by the teachings, that action is devilish.
It is a defensible action because the word of God permits it, which is the message we have received. The message of the hour. It permits it. It guarantees it. You are acting in agreement with THE FAITH.
Our Lord God and Master, The Great Rabbi is educating us by teaching us to think intensively and critically about our lives, and the character we manifest on daily basis. He said, “If you must take any action on any matter, take a defensible action”.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 38 vs. 26. “ANY ACTION that is not defensible by your Faith is action taken in error”. If your action is not backed up by your Faith, you are in error. It is not a defensible action.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 41 vs. 36. But there is no way you can be called to question when you are doing the right thing. [Sure!!!] But when you are doing the wrong thing, you must be called to question. True or false? True sir!
The Lord our God said and I quote, “Provided you come to God with a willing heart, with a good heart, and a sincere confession, a sincere change of mind, and a sincere change of attitude, no matter how great that sin might be, I assure you, The Almighty will forgive it”.
Who is The Almighty He is talking about? He that dwelleth in Him and makes Him The Almighty in human flesh, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN).
If THE SON OF MAN shall set you free, you shall be free indeed.
I want you to take note of this Word; “That ye may know that The Son of Man hath the power to forgive sin on Earth”. Mathew 9:4-6, NIV. Knowing their thought, Jesus said, why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts? Which is easier; to say, “Your sins are forgiven”, or to say, “Get up and walk?” But I want you to know that THE SON OF MAN has authority on Earth to forgive sins, so He said to the paralysed man, “Get up, take your mat and go home.
Turn with me once again to the message; PUT ME IN REMEMBRANCE Part 2 volume 1; Page 58 vs. 24-31. Please narrow this statement down. What dampened our moral? Why are we unfaithful to our pronounced Faith? It is because we have not for one day made up our mind to worship God the way He (God) said we should worship Him. [Sure!!!]
We have attached conditions to our worship. So we are conditional worshippers. And every conditional worshipper does not stay long.
William Branham said and I quote, “If you are coming to worship God so that you will not go to hell, get ready for you must go to hell and you must perish. If you are coming to God so that your sickness will be healed, that sickness will kill you”.
Then he asked, “how then do we come to God?” You must come and worship God with love because you know that you ought to. You know that it is your responsibility, for He is your God, your Creator and your Father.
He said, “By the way, why do you obey your father? Do you obey the words of your father so that he will not kill you? [No!] “However, you obey your father because you ought to, for he is your father. It is your responsibility.
Nobody comes to his father, obeying him because of miracle, healing or signs and wonders, but your Father knows your problem.
If you are sick, he knows that he is your father, he knows his responsibility towards you. [Sure!!!] So you do not remind him to heal you for your duty is to obey your father, respect your father, love your father and then, He will fulfill His responsibility towards you, for He knows what you need.
But when you are coming to God, you stay in your house and He detects the conditions why you are coming. You are coming because you are barren and you want God to give you a child. You are coming because you have been suffering from sickness. And for that you want God to heal you.
Or you are coming because you are poor. So you want God to make you a millionaire.
As a result, you have all these things in mind and these are the things that dragged you to God.
Yes! Shopping list.
You are not coming to Him because you ought to or that it is your responsibility. You are not coming to Him because you love Him. You are not coming to Him the way He said that you should, for you have not recognized Him as your God, as your Creator and as your Maker.
So, you do not have good motive. For that reason, your worship is useless nonsense.
Or you came or you are coming with shopping list. You came with your list of items which he will fulfill if He wants you to worship Him.
He will tell you, “Depart from Me. I have no need of you.” I own all the inhabitants of the earth. You are not special. And there is nothing special in you that can attract you to My side.
How we ought to learn how to approach God. We ought to learn how to approach God.
In addition, you do not stay too long for you will get tired sooner or later. Brethren I believe it. This is why from time to time, you will hear people making noise saying, “I have left this Faith. It is nonsense, for I thought that when I come, my situation will change, but nothing has happened”.
Yes! You presented your situation. It is your situation that brought you to your God. So, without your situation, you would not have come to God. Thus, He is right for ignoring your situation, for you are not His child. You do not belong to Him.
We have to pay attention, for this is where the problem lies.
PUT ME IN REMEMBRANCE Part 2 volume 1; Page 65 vs. 40. Truth is not meant for everybody. We are in this Faith for a purpose. We are not in this most Holy Faith for material wealth. We are in this most Holy Faith for something more than that. Amen.
There is nothing as destructive as over-familiarity.
Can a human being be over-familiar with God? That is a question we must answer. To what extent can a man walk with God and become over-familiar with God? I do not know the extent. How old are you? Do you know how old God is?
Your time is unlimited. God has unlimited time. If He is counting on days before you today, it is because He wants to count on days or weeks or years, but He is from everlasting to everlasting.
Reference: THE FIRST BOOK OF ADAM AND EVE, Chapter 14 [The Earliest Prophesy of The Coming of Christ.] verse 3 through 5. ³Again said God to Adam, “All this misery that you have been made to take on yourself because of your transgression, will not free you from the hand of Satan, and will not save you. ⁴But I will. When I shall come down from heaven, and shall become flesh of your descendants, and take on Myself the infirmity from which you suffer, then the darkness that covered you in this cave shall cover Me in the grave, when I am in the flesh of your descendants. ⁵And I, who am without years, shall be subject to the reckoning of years, of times, of months, and of days, and I shall be reckoned as one of the sons of men, in order to save you.”

Some people, due to lack of revelation, think that they are in Peter Odoemena’s Church. Some even think that if they leave the Church that I will be losing something. Let Me tell you, if you leave this Church today, I am losing nothing. If you come into this Church today, I am gaining nothing. You are a burden to Me because I know that I can do without you, but you cannot do without Me. I do not need you, but you need Me.

THE SON OF MAN

GOD IN DESPISED PLACES; preached in the year 2000 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 163

GOD CAN DO WITHOUT YOU [1]

Turn with me once again to the message; ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE? Page 61 vs. 26-28. The problem we are having in this Faith is that those you think that they know God, do not know God.

This is the conclusion of the matter.
If you can remember the signs and wonders God displayed here to reveal Himself, He said that He wants to banish unbelief. To put an end to unbelief.
What is more! The naked manifestation of unbelief is murmuring. The second is complaining. The third is grumbling. Once it starts in you, you will start to demonstrate.
Who are you demonstrating against, is it God? [Rebellion!] And from that time, the word of God will mean nothing to you [Rebellion!] and you will think that you are doing God.
You are not doing God, for He is not depending on you, but you are the one seeking eternal life from Him, pinning your hope on Him, for you can do nothing without Him. So, stop and think.
Now that we are about to put on immortality, if we have wisdom, we will rest at nothing until we put it on.
ARE YOU WALKING WITH GOD OR WALKING ALONE? Page 66 vs. 36-45. If God discovers that if you put on immortality, you will constitute a problem for Him, then forget about it. [Sure!!!] You will never put it on. You will be there watching those that put it on.
At the end you go home and begin to demonstrate like Cain. Your demonstration is useless. Your demonstration is absolutely useless.
Bear this Word I want to tell you today in your mind. Your unbelief can never make God not to be what He is. Your unbelief removes nothing from God and it adds nothing to God.
Let it be clear to you that no human being has ever helped God to achieve His purpose. And no human being will help God to achieve His purpose.
Your idolatrous practices means nothing to God, but it makes you an abomination and a disgusting human being in the eyes of God.
In other words, God can do all things. He can do without you. You are not indispensable. There is nothing you will be to the point that God will say if not because of you. That is a lie! Bear it in mind.
There are people that are far better than you even in this Faith that are no more in our midst, but all meant nothing to God. Bear this in mind.
Re-examine yourself anytime message is going out, [Sure!!!] so that you will know where it affects you. [Sure!!!] The word is not directed to the tree but to human beings. We are the people involved.
That you do not know this or that, do you not know what is happening in your heart? Do you not know the one you have done? Do you not know the one you are about to do? Will you say that you don’t know yourself? Even the mad man knows himself. One that is disobeying knows he is disobeying.
Do not show remorse on the outside, allow the remorse to reach your heart. [Amen!] If the remorse did not come from your heart, change will never come. [Sure!!!] Remorse comes from the heart.
Do not follow God until you are sure you have made up your mind to walk with Him. Do not ever attempt following Him until you have made up your mind to walk with Him. Finish.
Do not ever attempt following God, Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN), until you have made up your mind to walk with Him. That is, following His footsteps.
When a man comes into contact with the reality, he does not continue in the old way of thinking and the old way of living. [Sure!!!] Those things that were giving you joy before, you will begin to hate them.
When Saint Paul got converted, he hated his old way of living under the Jewish religion.
Reference: Philippians 3:3-7. ^[3]For it isn’t the cutting of our bodies that makes us children of God; it is worshiping him with our spirits. That is the only true “circumcision.” We Christians glory in what Christ Jesus has done for us and realize that we are helpless to save ourselves. ^[4]Yet if anyone ever had reason to hope that he could save himself, it would be I. If others could be saved by what they are, certainly I could! ^[5]For I went through the Jewish initiation ceremony when I was eight days old, having been born into a pure-blooded Jewish home that was a branch of the old original Benjamin family. So I was a real Jew if there ever was one! What’s more, I was a member of the Pharisees who demand the strictest obedience to every Jewish law and custom. ^[6]And sincere? Yes, so much so that I greatly persecuted the Church; and I tried to obey every Jewish rule and regulation right down to the very last point. ^[7]But all these things that I once thought very worthwhile—now I’ve thrown them all away so that I can put my trust and hope in Christ alone. LB
Turn with me again to the Message; BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 86 vs. 18-19. Do we think that way? We know THE TABERNACLE OF GOD. THE TABERNACLE of God is among men. God’s habitation is among men.
God’s dwelling place is among us, for God has decided to veil himself in one of us, using Him to talk to us; using Him to answer our prayers and using Him to meet our spiritual need. But the heathens among us are blind. They cannot BEHOLD HIS MAJESTY.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 116 vs. 61-62. Not even one of those infallible proofs and evidences were displayed in the dark or in secret places. They were all displayed during the day. They were all displayed openly in the tabernacle before many witnesses. Some have died; Some have left the Faith, while some are alive till this day.
What can we say if we get to the end and we are rejected because there is doubt in us? What if we are rejected because we have not taken Him seriously?
Ponderon this very verse of the Message. [1] What can we say if we get to the end and we are rejected because there is doubt in us? [2] What if we are rejected because we have not taken Him seriously?
If only you can practice what you have heard and what you have been taught, then, it shall be well with you. [Amen!]
Now, with all the events happening around the globe, what will you say the hour calls for? If you are in the right spirit, you will know that there is nothing any human being born of a woman can do right now than to calmly and quietly look unto the Lord God Almighty, in His holy and righteous habitation.
And by calmly and quietly waiting and looking unto Him, He has in His humble manner revealed to us what the hour demands.
Turn with me to the Bible once again. Zachariah 2:13, GNB. Be silent, everyone, in the presence of the Lord, for He is coming from his holy dwelling place.
Habakkuk 2:20, GNB. The Lord is in His holy Temple; let everyone on earth be silent in his presence.
The Lord Almighty is in His Holy temple. Let every one on Earth be silent in His presence and pay heed seriously to every Word that proceeds from His lips.
Let us continue in the same message; BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 86 vs. 20-21. Those that have beheld His MAJESTY are commanded to keep calm, be still and be silent. Be silent! Even in the book of lamentation, it is there.
IT IS IN THAT PERIOD OF SILENCE THAT YOU CAN MEDITATE. YOU CAN PAUSE AND THINK. Any problem that arises around you and you can not solve it through silent meditation, you cannot solve it again.
Why is it very difficult for one to put into practice what he or she is constantly hearing?
Let us get the answer from the message; I HAVE FOUND THE MAN WHOM THE LAW AND PROPHET SPOKE ABOUT volume 1; [Amen!] Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday 5^th June, 2022. Page 84 vs. 49-50.
Brethren, condemnation is hanging on our heads. We have heard all these Messages. Did any of the Messages come from America? Rather, the Messages are sent to America from here.
When you are Holy, sanctified and clean in the heart, it is only then that your eyeS will open to recognize THE MESSIAH. [Sure!!!]
When the eyes of Bartimaeus was opened, he recognized the Messiah. When Saint Paul’s eyes opened on the way to Damascus, but until then, the Messiah was hidden from him. He was having eyes, moving about, killing people and contending. Yet he was blind from recognizing the Messiah. [That is pure truth!]
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 87 vs. 54. Whoever that does not recognize the Messiah of his day is still blind till this very hour. [Sure!] And the blindness of his heart and of his eyes will keep him in bondage to sin.
Turn with me to the Bible once again. Psalms 84:11, KJV. For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
The Lord God is a Sun. That is, He dwelleth in the Sun where no man approaches. He is the Light of the world that nothing can be hidden from Him and also the shield to all who believe, obey and trust in Him. To them He will give His superlative Grace and Glory. No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
Now, my question is this: How rich are you in your relationship to God? That is, how healthy is your relationship with God?
THIS IS BECAUSE YOU MUST BE RICH IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. ANYTHING THAT WILL AFFECT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD IS YOUR GREATEST ENEMY.

……Believe it if you can, I am not soliciting for your favour. No. I gain nothing if you are saved. I lose nothing if you perish. Are you feeding Me? Is it not in your prophecy? I can do without you, but you cannot do without Me, for without Me, you can do nothing. That is why when somebody rises up to rebel against Me, against My Message, Hell becomes his/her portion. And you ask Me how do you rebel against Me? When you rebel against My Message and against My servant, you are rebelling against Me. Have you not heard it.

THE SON OF MAN

PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW ME (OPI SERIES); preached in 2001; Pg. 149 vs. 5

GOD CAN DO WITHOUT YOU [2]

BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 107 vs. 34. But this eternal life is in somebody. He Who is immortal, and Who dwelleth in the SUN where no man approaches. In Him is immortality. He conferred this power, this authority to only one man to give to people.

This eternal life is in Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN). He is immortal. He dwells in the sun where no man can approach. In other that man can approach Him, He hid Himself in a human flesh. He will give us what He has and that is immortality.
He is conferred with the power and authority to give eternal life and immortality to whomsoever He wants. So, you cannot get eternal life and immortality outside Him.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 111 vs. 46-49. [John 5:41-42, LB] “Your approval or disapproval means nothing to me, for as I know so well, you don’t have God’s love within you.
I know so well that you do not have the love of God in your heart. You hate God. You equally hate the truth. You equally hate yourself. If you love God, you love the truth, for Christ is the truth. He is the way, He is the life.
If you love God, you would have believed in Him. His word would have been effective in your heart. But because you hate God, you hate His word. You do not know that He is nothing but His word.
Christ and His Word are one. In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. The Word was God. The Word became flesh – a human being, and lived among us, and is still living among us.
The Deity, The Elohim is in Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN). Look away from the human flesh. Look away from His simplicity. Believe Him.
BE SILENT AND KNOW THAT THE LORD IS GOD; Page 122 vs. 21-23. I KNOW THAT LOVE ESPECIALLY GOD’S LOVE, IS NOT ON YOUR WORKING AGENDA. SURE!!! How can you tell me that you want eternal life, and you are not ready to listen to the Word of God that you may know what to do to have it? Are you not paying cosmetic approach to it, deceiving yourself?
Why? You do not even know the meaning of eternal life. You do not even know the gains of eternal life. You want to enjoy this present life. God has assigned it to you to enjoy. You will enjoy it fully.
If what we are passing through now means enjoyment of the world, I mean whoever that desires it is the greatest fool. If living in fear; living in bondage; living with poverty and living without employment is what it takes to enjoy life, I want to go to the grave and join my wife there.
Let us continue in the same message; I HAVE FOUND THE MAN WHOM THE LAW AND THE PROPHET SPOKE ABOUT Volume 2. Page 121 vs. 5-14. The whole world is sitting on a time bomb that will explode with time. So, everywhere appears to be pregnant. What it will deliver will be very very disastrous. We are in a pregnant situation, the world over.
Believe it if you can. We are living in perilous times. Precarious times. Everything is failing mankind. Nobody can predict accurately what tomorrow may bring.
Everybody is living in the fear of tomorrow, but we are comforted by the promises of God that He will catch us away in the midst of the trouble, and that the Bride will be taken away during troublous times.
And now, we have rolled gradually into troublous times where it has become increasingly difficult for people to maintain godly confessions of their Faith steadfastly without wavering for one day, if not Christ that has appeared. I am not talking of one week.
And in this waiting, we do not diminish one bit. Thank God we recognized that from the time of the promise to the time of the fulfilment, there must be a period of waiting.
When He gave the promise to Abraham, He never fulfilled it immediately. Abraham had to wait for twenty good years. You see why He gave us the Message that we have need of patience.
When our obedience is fulfilled, we will get the promise. God is not the God of “Wait and take”. Between the period the promise went forth to the period of its fulfillment, there must be a period of waiting.
It is during this period of waiting that many deny the Faith of Christ. Many wander away. Many begin to think that God is slack in fulfilling the promise. Rebellion will arise. People will begin to jump into the world.
Some will say, “God is no longer mindful of His word”. Many many things will happen, like it is happening today.
Turn with me to the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:1, LB. You may as well know this too, Timothy, that in the last days it is going to be very difficult to be a Christian.
You may as well know this too my beloved Brethren, that in these last days we are in right now, it is very difficult to be a child of God. It is very difficult to maintain a godly confession of your Faith steadfastly without wavering for one day. But the remedy lies in Christ – Apostle Peter Odoemena (BBHMHN).
Ephesians 6:10, LB. Last of all I want to remind you that your strength must come from the Lord’s mighty power within you.
As a child of God, your strength must come from the Lord’s mighty power within you.
Turn with me to the message; DISSAPOINTED EXPECTATION Volume 2; Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday 22^nd December, 2019. Page 154 vs. 3. What is the Lord’s mighty power within you? The Word spoken to you by Christ is full of living power, alive, active and energizing. And that is, if you take it in.
The Word spoken to you by Christ, Apostle Peter Odoemena, is full of living power. It is alive and active, energizing you, if you take it in. But if you do not, it is not effective in you at all.
DISSAPOINTED EXPECTATION Volume 2; Page 155 vs. 6-9. When the Word of God is in our heart, it will raise a standard against the devil. Whenever the spirit begins to mount us to do contrary, the knowledge of the Word accumulated in your heart will raise up a standard against it. It will never permit that to happen.
But when The Word is not stored in the heart, there is nothing that can restrain you from dancing to the tune and suggestions of the devil.
To be tempted is not sin. Every man can be tempted. But when you yield or when you succumb to that temptation, you have committed crime before God.
Remember, no man is tempted by God with a problem. God tests every man’s heart, trying to see whether there will be an upright heart.
DISSAPOINTED EXPECTATION Volume 2; Page 157 vs. 14-17. The evil that started in the day of Adam and Eve is climaxing in our own day. That is why we are accounting even for the blood of Abel. It will be required of the people of this generation.
Do you know how many generations that it is covering? The days of Noah, the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, plus your own day. Of all the evils, the climax is this.
Who can be saved? You see why it takes God to come down, for if God fails to come down, no flesh shall be saved. How can you escape it? Let God open your eyes and you see what is following you about.
When you want to do good, you will do evil; Influencing you to do evil at all times, provoking you sometimes. Thoughts you never envisaged will come into your mind. I am telling you the truth. You will be struggling with yourself. Amen!
DISSAPOINTED EXPECTATION Volume 2; Page 159 vs. 20-23. I told you how to pray always that you fall not into temptation. Do not live a loose life. Follow the ways of the Master. Follow your Guide. Get acquainted with Him so close that you know Him, His doctrines and His manner of life.
Ephesians 6 vs. 12, LB. —the evil rulers of the unseen world, those mighty satanic beings and great evil princes of darkness who rule this world; and against huge numbers of wicked spirits in the spirit world.
Look at what is warring against a child of God. Go back to last Sunday’s Message. That is, GOD’S PRESENCE IS THE GLORY. You will see it that the greatest enemy of Satan is a child of God. [Sure!!!] If you are a child of God, you are in a warfare.
That is why you must be on the alert, for your enemy, your adversary is roaring about you, seeking to devour you. The devil does not mean well for anybody.
Will the devil attack? The answer is capital YES. You need the strong belt of truth. Use truth as your belt. Guide yourself with truth. No falsehood.
Finally, DISSAPOINTED EXPECTATION Volume 2; Page 162 vs. 29. If something that belongs to the devil is not in your custody, the devil cannot come to you demanding anything.
One from whom the devil is making a demand is in custody of something that belongs to the devil.
Do you believe it? After this Message, I will tell you a story.
The spirit of an idol cannot come to you if you have not desecrated it.
I want you to carefully ponder on the verse we just read, and tell yourself the last truth. For correction is made easy when you fault yourself.
On this note, I say remain blessed in Him eternally. Amen!

I know that I know the way. Follow Me! Do not be afraid. He that is leading you knows the way. Do not be dismayed, the Son of Man knows the way. Do not be afraid. He that is leading you knows the way. Do not be dismayed, the Son of Man knows where He is going. I know where I am going and you also will say, “I know who I am following and the Person I am following is God. God that knows the way!” If you know whom you are following, finish!

THE SON OF MAN

GOD HAS A HIDING PLACE VOL. 1; Preached on Sunday 28th April 2013 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 176 vs. 34 – 35

BENEDICTION BY THE SON OF MAN

I want to say something there. Can a man offend a god he does not recognize and worship? Can a man be indebted to a god he does not know and he is not a member of the cult or shrine? I mean, begin to think about it.

You see why a good number of our members are idolaters. First, their parents introduced them to those traditions that held them bound. When they were not being helped by those idols and traditions, they embraced the truth as was revealed to them about Christ’s salvation.
Some of them jumped out from their denominations and joined us in this Bridal Movement. Yet, secretly continued respecting, obeying and also magnifying the powers of those village idols where they were espoused to by their parents.
Can you say that the person has repented? He only changed church. He changed association. He is still where he is spiritually speaking and even physically speaking. He is ready to meet all the demands of that idol so that he will live. Can any idol give life? Can the devil give life?
The devil cometh but for to steal, to kill, to destroy and to carry away. Christ comes that we may have life, and have it more abundantly.
I have read documents and manuscripts, both ancient and modern, but I have never come across where it was documented that the devil is the giver of life. The devil remains the destroyer of life.
Always bear it in mind that whosoever that is recognizing and engaging in idolatrous practices, or preaching the necessity for people to pay allegiance, to fear, to honour or to reverence anything idol or idolatrous practices is the very anti-Christ in our midst, and must be avoided by all means and with every amount of malice, now we have come to the end of all things.
This is so that the case will be between him and the Almighty God and his family because it is a family sin. I point that person back to the beginning in the Message entitled, FAMILY GODS. Family gods! Every family has its own gods.
For that reason, Joshua said, “Choose for yourselves the God you will worship with your family this day. As for me, Joshua and my family, we have chosen to worship the only one and true God; the Living God Who hears and answers prayers.”
There is no idol in the world that hears and answers prayers. And anybody bringing before a child of God anything from such idols knows that he is the worst provocation and must be dealt accordingly.
So please, in conclusion, run away from idols. The Bible said, “Have nothing to do with idols so that God will receive you. You will be His son and his daughter. He will be your God.”
But if you go ahead recognizing and telling people the necessity of observance of the rules and regulations of the idols of your community and of your land that have nothing to offer any human being, the LORD will deal with you treacherously anytime from now.
To be fore-warned is to fore-armed. Go to the Message entitled, LOOSE THE COLT. Loose that colt.
If you have decided not to break loose from that idol, do not insist that these little ones that have believed in Christ will follow you and worship them. Do not hinder them.
For the LORD Jesus said, “It will be worse for Sodom and Gomorrah than a man who is tied to a milestone and dropped into the deepest ocean, for he will be better preferred to anybody who will cause these little ones who have believed in God to draw back by pointing their Faith away from the true God to idols.”
Reference: Luke 17:1-2. ¹AND [Jesus] said to His disciples, Temptations (snares, traps set to entice to sin) are sure to come, but woe to him by or through whom they come! ²It would be more profitable for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were hurled into the sea than that he should cause to sin or be a snare to one of these little ones [lowly in rank or influence].

Anybody that will do that will never be spared by the Almighty. He will incur the greatest wrath for he is identifying himself with God’s greatest enemy. Remember the Message, WE HAVE ONE COMMON ENEMY, who is responsible for all our misdeeds and responsible for every false anointing; and responsible for luring us into wrong decisions. Only one common enemy.
And he manifests himself in the form of human beings. So, be very careful about the people you mingle and associate with, thinking that they are brethren and because of the positions they are occupying, that they are in heaven, not knowing that they are in hell, and pulling people into hell.
They know what they are doing, especially all those ancient men and women who sat down when their Leader is still standing, who declared the end of the war when the fight is still raging on; who are sitting at ease in Zion.
There is no friendship in the warfront. Any soldier that goes to the warfront to make friendship will never come back alive.
On this note, I say thank you for giving us audience and for remaining awake. You can now begin to challenge yourself from today that sleeping is the spirit you yield yourself to.
But if you say “No!” and occupy yourself with the Message, be in the pulpit with the Pastor or the Preacher, and with the readiness to read the Scriptures alongside with Him, for you cannot be asleep and be reading, I bet you, you will always stay awake.
You can never sleep until your mind wanders away from the Message you are hearing. True or false. When you cut yourself off, you sleep.
When you isolate yourself, you will get a partner by your side, who will pat you on the back, and you will sleep. And that is the devil. An expert; a specialist in distracting the attention of people at a time when the Message that will solve their problem[s] might be going on.
So, may we learn to resist the devil so that he will leave us alone. Do not partner with the devil. Partner always with Christ. Be awake spiritually and physically.
A rat does not eat the food meant for somebody who is wide awake. Does the rat eat the food meant for one that is wide awake? Thank you! Pray and dismiss us.
