WARNING BEFORE DESTRUCTION [EVENING FELLOWSHIP] PREACHED ON FRIDAY 17TH JULY, 2020 AT THE BRIDAL LODGE, NSUGBE ANAMBRA STATE, NIGERIA. BY APOSTLE PETER DOEMENA THE SON OF MAN THE ETERNAL GOD
After this revelation, I will rejoice that God guided Me perfectly. He never made any mistake: That the Son of Man who is revealed in our midst was revealed by God. He is the One that is revealed in a Cloud. That’s all. No other notice shall be given to you. God is not going to give you another sign. Everything is finished. What is left is the translation of your mortal body and then the judgment of God which is the destruction of the world. I AM THE LAST SIGN GOD HAS GIVEN TO THIS PLANET EARTH.
FOLLOW THE CLOUD (EVIDENCE THAT THE SON OF MAN IS THE ELOHIM) VOL. 2; Preached in the cool of the evening of Thursday 14th September 2003 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 15 vs. 17 – 18
INTRODUCTION
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, we invite You into this evening’s fellowship. Our desire is to be wherever You are.
In life or in death, help us to maintain that inseparable relationship with You. Whatever that will strain our relationship with You, Father, reveal it to us, that we may get rid of it without delay.
Knowing that the hour we are in, Father calls for precautions, help us O King of Glory to realize that we are living in a very delicate hour, a very unpredictable period when anything can take place even while we are talking tonight.
We therefore pray O Lord that You forgive the sins of Your people, no matter where they are. Forgive every iniquity among Your children and let Thy righteousness cover them. Let Thy holiness envelop them.
Consider all, Father, through that sacrificial blood of Christ which was shed on the cross of Calvary for all the Elect. Save them, O God, Father, through the blood of Christ. Declare them, O God, sanctified, holy and perfect in Thy sight.
Remember O God that we are not standing in our own righteousness, but in Your own. Help us, O God, to continue to live the life of obedience to the truth so that our righteousness in You will remain steadfast unto the end.
May unbelief never rise up in our hearts. Let there be nothing that will make us to doubt Your promise. Though the whole world, O God, may deny You, may You never, O God, permit us to deny You.
We have known who You are. You have revealed everything about You to us. All that we should know about the Deity has been manifested to us, both Your visible and invisible qualities. Father, we have no excuse to give again for we are better placed than our fore-fathers.
We are better placed than any other group of people upon the earth, for no group of people has ever been privileged to witness all that has happened amongst us. And we believe You never revealed all these things to us to destroy us.
You revealed them, O God Father to strengthen our faith in You, so that, come what may, we will never forget what our eyes have seen. Neither will we forget what our ears have heard, which are our own individual experiences with You that convinced us actually that we are not deceived by anybody.
Moreso, when we are holding the more-sure Word of prophecy that is fulfilling, O God, while we are holding it in our hands.
What evidence do we need again to anchor our faith in You and in You alone?
We therefore pray Thee that your grace will be sufficient to all Your Elect especially at this point in time. Save all of us to the utmost.
Father, I pray for every family that has gathered this hour under the sun, not only in Nigeria, but worldwide to seek Your face, to listen to You speak to them, to draw their strength and comfort from You, to praise and worship You this evening. Father, meet their souls’ demands.
May they never gather in vain. Even wherever there is only but one man, one woman or one infant, Father O God, before You, let that person form the great congregation there. Let Your host of angels, O Lord, surround and encompass that person there so that the fellowship will be divine.
We pray Thee today that our fellowship with You and with one another will be purely divine and not carnal.
Speak to our hearts for we are ready to obey. For Your name’s sake, we pray. Amen.
Now, I am about to destroy the whole world, the world is ripe for destruction and I have come down in person to see for Myself and I am satisfied that the world has gone back to exactly the age of Noah and the age of Sodom and Gomorrah. Yes, I have come down from Heaven, putting on human flesh. Will I hide from Abraham My plan, My programme?
ACTION TIME PART 1 (HUSBANDS AND WIVES) CAMP MEETING; preached on Tuesday, 30th December, 1997 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 67 vs. 13 – 14

FEEL AT HOME WITH GOD
Do we have any Message we want to consider? Okay. This Message we have been attempting all the while, it is not yet printed.
My desire is that we go back to it and see whether we can draw inspiration from it. And I believe God will not allow us to go home tonight or go to bed empty handed.
Since yesterday morning, I believe the revival is still there. Yesterday’s morning Message was a tonic. A real spiritual tonic to every soul that is desiring the truth about the hour.
It is not a new Message, but God putting us in remembrance of those things we have forgotten for which cause we are misbehaving, both men and women. We forgot what God told us.
I want us to get to the Message titled; DO NOT FORGET WHAT YOUR EYES HAVE SEEN AND YOUR EARS HAVE HEARD lest at any time, God will bless you with material blessings and your heart will be overcharged with pride;
Lest God will come your way in a very miraculous way and your attention will be drawn away from God and from the hour we are in. What will occupy your hearts will be earthly things. Things that will perish with the perishing world.
The world that has already decayed. The world that is already stinking. This world, truly speaking, is stinking now. This world has decayed.
Tell Me what is good in this world anymore? Tell Me what is good in this world? Tell Me if there be any facet of human life we can say, “Except this area?” It does not exist.
What is taking place has never taken place before since the history of the world. Let nobody ever say it is a common experience. If it is common, tell us when it happened before and how regular it has been.
Before something will become common, it will be a regular occurrence. Anything that is not a regular occurrence can never be termed a common development or a common phenomenon.
Since it has never happened before, it is strange to the entire world. Here in Nigeria, are we left out? Everybody is crying.
Let Me tell you, whatever anybody is doing, he is doing it in anticipation of his death. Whoever that is embarking on anything, is doing it in anticipation of his death. Any day you see yourself alive now, praise God.
Where we went this afternoon, we saw the obituary notice of a young man. His shop was closed. He was one of the people commanding [and making so much] money there [in that market].
Looking at him and the shop and even that line, no business there including Brother Alexus. All of them are now at Ugah to bury him.
Nothing killed him but what should kill him at that age. Anybody who dies now from 50 years and above after a brief illness, it is Covid-19.
That is why the rate of death has increased so much in Anambra state that the Governor is now ordering that there will be house to house test.
If it comes to that house to house test, who will carry it out? Where is the equipment? Is it this thermometer gauge that they will only be flashing in your eyes to show your temperature?
High temperature does not mean COVID. If you are having high fever [your temperature is high], it is not COVID. You may have malaria or typhoid. If your temperature is high, it is not COVID.
COVID is another ball game altogether which nobody has discovered the real symptoms of COVID. Whatever people are calling symptoms have been discovered that they are not symptoms.
Yes! This is because the Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on Covid-19 said that too many cases abound everywhere, where people tested positive to covid-19 without showing any visible symptoms [asymptomatic cases].
If it is true that somebody can be a carrier of COVID-19 [Coronavirus disease] without having any symptom, he said that even a good number of them have died.
They tested positive but looking at them, they were looking very healthy but they are carriers. In the attempt to quarantine them, they died.
So, I want all of us to feel at home with God. If you are at home with God, you are at home with His promises that can never fail.
LET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL OF US THAT CORONAVIRUS DISEASE INVADED THE WORLD BY THE SPOKEN WORD. IT CAME INTO EXISTENCE BY THE SPOKEN WORD.
Scientists have confirmed it that it is not traceable to anything natural organism. Coronavirus disease causative agents have never been traced to anything natural element, let alone a human being.
If it is not natural by origin, it is not traced to plants and it is not traced to animals, we must know where it is coming from.
While we are grappling with it, the promised one we are anticipating by August have started showing signs. Right now, about nine countries have been visited with bubonic plague.
The worst bacterial disease. The deadliest bacteria ever recorded in the history of mankind that is causing people now to surrender to God by force.
And the rate at which it is coming down, by August, are we sure that African nations [which Nigeria is part of] will not get their share?
God is behind it. He said another one is coming to superimpose the one that is already there.
If you go to the message titled; MIDNIGHT CRY, it is there. He said that every effort to control this one will fail and another one will come on top of it.
God said He will relax the measures for a while. He will touch the hearts of all authorities and the COVID lockdown will be relaxed a little while and people will now surge on the streets again, with activities in the markets.
He said He will watch us, the real children of God. He will watch our reactions to know whether we will forget what we witnessed during the lockdown.
And looking at what is happening since these measures were relaxed worldwide, notice the activities, people are trying to recover and also at the same time overtake the whole world.
They want to recover the time they lost, the gains they lost and everything they lost. Is it possible? They are trying to catch the wind.
In the attempt to recover, they opened the borders and what they were afraid of started transferring itself. Opening of the borders helped to spread it more and more, unchecked. I say, unchecked!
With the influx of persons, exodus of persons, migration of persons from one place to another, carriers are now moving freely, spreading it both in their communities, in their homes and everywhere until there is no quarantine Center in Nigeria again.
Everywhere is filled up. It is now quarantine yourself in your own home. Self-quarantine. Through self-quarantine, you have eradicated the whole family. Is it not true?
That was why the Honourable Minister of Education said it is an act of wickedness to allow schools to reopen. He said that one student can infest the whole dormitory or the whole hostel.
Look at what God did. He used COVID to block millionaires from travelling abroad for medical treatment. He started from where they would have run to.
Seeing that the places they wanted to go to have already been ravaged, they [those foreign countries] could not control it and it is worst there than here, who will dream of going to India or China for treatment? Treat what? Will you go to UK?
Now, instead of going there for treatment, our own people in foreign countries are been repatriated to come and die in Nigeria so that they will not die there. Other countries are also repatriating their own. Is it not true?
I want you to see the situation. Tell Me if such a thing has ever happened since the history of the world. This bubonic is coming to teach them the greatest lesson.
We saw the picture of one that died just few days ago. You saw the heavy, heavy boils on the armpit.
When the heavy boils will flood the armpit, the laps, the buttocks and the stomach, then the eyes will bulge and you would not have the buttocks to sit down. You cannot lie flat because of the heavy, heavy boils.
Your hands cannot overlap. It is “Operation Hands Up.” All hands up! It has started already both in Japan and China. People are now going with their hands raised to the sky, “God I surrender. I surrender all.”
They do not wear pants. Everyone is now having bow legs, man and woman alike. No pants and no knickers because of the heavy boils in-between the laps and scrotum which is then [making them walk] with bow legs.
Men will be wearing gowns or skirt or tying wrapper on their neck with two hands up.
How will you even tie the wrapper when the hands cannot come down? How will you eat? How will you sit down? You cannot sit down and you cannot lie down. How do you buy your food, cook and eat? You think it is easy?
That is what God said, “There is one that is coming. Whenever it comes to that point where the children of God cannot survive it, translation will take place.”
Tell Me if God will allow such a thing to ravage while we are here. Who can bear it?
Then the third will be another plague! The fungi that will peel off their flesh and peel off their eyes. Human beings will be moving about, and flies will be following them. Smelling! There will be no hands to chase the flies away, for your hands are up.
We have seen the virus. We have seen the bacteria. The fungi are on the way. Then, that will be the last before fire will fall. Who will survive it? Yes, God is the chiefest of all the planners. Is it not true?
54And (the unbelievers) plotted and planned, and Allah too planned, and the best of planners is Allah. [Surah 3:54]
30Remember how the Unbelievers plotted against thee, to keep thee in bonds, or slay thee, or get thee out (of thy home). They plot and plan, and Allah too plans; but the best of planners is Allah. [Surah 8:30]
He told you that He was making the arithmetic, that He is still reasoning, trying to come out with the appropriate punishment He would mete out to this generation that has troubled God more than any other.
An Evil generation. A Generation of vipers, where people look godly while they are satanic. You think God will allow them to go away with the blasphemy? Impossible! I say, impossible!
THE HAND OF GOD HAS ALREADY RESTED UPON THE WORLD FOR DESTRUCTION AND THERE IS NO GOING BACK.
Verily verily, I say unto you, rely not on your powers, rely not on your strength. Boast not on your wealth or on your buildings. Boast not with your friends or anything else. Depend on the Lord God Almighty. Depend on His grace. Depend on His Mercies. Do not depend on what you can do, for without Him, you will achieve basically nothing. The help of man is vain. Look unto Him all the end of the earth and be ye saved, for HE is the Lord God Almighty, your Saviour and beside Him, there is no other Saviour.

WE HAVE COME TO THE END OF ALL THINGS
The Message we read this morning was preached in the month of March 2003. 17 years ago. See what is happening. All of them coming to pass.
That is why this morning’s Message was titled, EXPECT WORSE THINGS AHEAD. Expect the worst ahead. From worse to worst.
Right now, the situation is bad. Bacteria will make it worse. Fungi will make it worst. We will see the superlative degree of sickness, diseases and pestilences all from the face of the Almighty.
Then, what will you say when the Lord Himself will rest upon the waters and the waters will become poisonous like He rested upon the waters in Egypt and the water became blood? But there in Goshen, their water was neat. No blood.
He filled Egypt with frogs, Goshen was free from that. He filled Egypt with flies, but Goshen was saved from that. That was why too many migrated from Egypt to Goshen.
When they saw all those miraculous things, immediately Moses announced their exit, those people who saw that thing joined them and crossed the Red Sea. That is why they had mixed multitude in the majority who followed them.
They were only six hundred thousand. A great multitude followed them. In the wilderness, they were 2 million excluding women and infants. But the real people of God were six hundred Men. God counted all.
37And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children. 38And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. [Exodus 12:37 – 38 KJV]
21And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. [Exodus 11:21 KJV]
Check! 1.4 million mixed multitude! They were trying to escape from the troubles of Egypt. Who would not befriend the people of God in Goshen after seeing the miraculous wonders He did in Egypt?
Read the book of Psalms. what He did in Egypt marveled Pharaoh. So, people started befriending the children of God in Goshen.
12Marvelous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. [Psalms 78:12 KJV]
Then, the children of God now disclosed their departure. They [the mixed-multitude] joined because all that went to their rooms, placed the blood on the lintel of their doors, they escaped the death.
They did what the people of God did for they had already witnessed the miraculous wonders.
That was what Moab said, “We saw how You handled Egypt, Cairo and other nations and we became afraid. Please, just pass, do not settle down.
LET ME TELL YOU, WE ARE SERVING THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE GOD. ANYBODY THAT HAS NOT SEEN HIM FROM THAT ANGLE IS BLIND. THAT PERSON IS BLIND. You will equally help God to destroy you before your time.
The devil said, “Why have you come here to destroy us before our time?”
33In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an evil spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, 34″Ha! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are–the Holy One of God!” [Mark 4:34 NIV]
Anybody that have not seen the destructive nature of God, the destructive side of God, truly speaking, must hasten his or her destruction. God using you to teach others a lesson.
Has He done it before? Over and over and over, using one to teach others a lesson, to serve as a restraint to the rest.
SO, THIS TIME AROUND, THOSE WHO THINK THAT GOD HAS DELAYED IN FULFILLING HIS PROMISES, THEY WILL REGRET AT THE END. IT IS NOT FAR FROM WHERE WE ARE NOW.
If you go to the Message titled, YOU ARE NOT TOO FAR FROM THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, BUT ONLY ONE THING REMAINETH. The same thing. Only one thing is left.
There is only but a step left between us and Paradise and also between us and hell fire. One second, it is all over.
Whatever we are doing right now, we saw it in the prophecy in the morning. Seventeen years ago. God encouraged us to be doing all these things we are doing and living right. He asked, “Must you fold your arms?” He answered, “No, do not do it.”
Imagine a situation where government said, “No more school till next year.” Check the numerous youths. They are not considered.
Their lives are more important than that place, for they [the government] are of the opinion that school is useless from now because you cannot control the disease and it is killing people every day.
It is already spreading every minute of the day, and then, you are embarking on something you will do in the next thirty years. That is, if you will stay alive. Is it not true?
You are planning, but do you know what God is planning? What if your plan is for the next three years and God says it is this night? There are two ways it will happen. Either through translation or through your death. Is it not true?
A rich man planned how he will use his money, he was rejoicing. He never knew that God was planning on how to take him home.
God said, “Mr Proud man, you will not enjoy this wealth which you got from your sweat. Tonight, you are closing your eyes in death. Let Me know who will enjoy your wealth”. He [God] parceled him home.
16And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. 17He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18″Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”
20″But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
21″This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God.” [Luke 12: 16 – 21 NIV]
Do you think that all that started with us this year are still alive? Do you know how many that died? I mean, those that are connected to us, who died even within this week.
Check all of them that lost their mothers. While we were trying to grapple with it, Brother Sunday Ugorji lost his own. The mother died of COVID in Lagos.
You see how they are spreading COVID? They confirmed the COVID. The woman died while trying to take her bath. They smuggled the corpse home.
Instead of burying the corpse, they put it in the mortuary. All that handled that corpse, all that will still handle it, even the mortuary attendants, are they not in trouble?
Even in that village, Abaomege [Ebonyi State], there is no health facility. They have only but mortuary. There is no hospital. It is only in this generation that mortuary can exist without hospitals.
So, let us be careful. I want us to see whether we can scratch this Message.
………Whoever that is avoiding THE SON OF MAN is stupid. Whoever that is avoiding THE SON OF MAN is joking or playing with His life because you do not know what lies ahead of you. That place where you think is safe for you may be the place where you meet your doom and disaster and you might be thinking that if you tell THE SON OF MAN about it that He will stop you. For that reason, you hide it away. Amen!

THIS IS THE TIME FOR SPIRITUAL WORSHIP
We start from the Scriptures. Habakkuk chapter 2. That is where we will start.
Habakkuk chapter 2:3 3But these things I plan won’t happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled.
If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day! [LB]
Every true, wise elect of God is not in a hurry. He is always patient with God. Why is he patient, and why is he so sure?
He knows the God he is worshipping. He knows that what God has said, whether he dies, that thing must come to pass.
When saint Paul was talking about translation, if you read it, it was as if that translation will happen in his day.
51Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? [1 Corinthians 15:51 – 54 KJV]
It was because saint Paul was sure and certain of what he was saying. He slept in that assurance and he will wake up in that assurance because he knows that it is a reality.
This is what happens to every seed of God, he is sure and certain that whatever God is saying is happening. So, no matter what happens to him, he knows it will come to pass.
Elijah spoke concerning Ahab and Jezebel and then he slept. He knew that the word which had gone forth can never return void. When it came to pass, Elijah was not physically there alive.
PROPHECY OF THE DEATH OF AHAB AND JEZEBEL
20And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the Lord.
21Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of
2Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin. 23And of Jezebel also spake the Lord, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel. 24Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat. [1 Kings 21:20 – 24 KJV]
THE DEATH OF AHAB
…….38And one washed the chariot in the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood; and they washed his armor; according unto the word of the Lord which he spake.
39Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
40So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead. [1 Kings 22:38 – 40 KJV]
THE DEATH OF AHAB
…….30And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window. 31And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?
32And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs. 33And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot. 34And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king’s daughter.
35And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands. 36Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the Lord, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel:
37And the carcass of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel. [2 Kings 9:30 – 37 KJV]
What are we talking about? Almighty God said this is the year He is going to prove to the whole world, and that we are not worshipping Him in vain. Amen.
And we are seeing His hand at work in our lives and in whatever we are doing. If you say you are not seeing the hand of God at work, it then means you are not a seed of God.
We are laying our emphasis on this area: Ecclesiastes 3 vs 1-3[Living Bible]. There is a right time for everything: A time to be born; A time to die; A time to plant; A time to harvest.
The Lord said and I quote from the tape, ‘THE LORD SHALL JUDGE AND VINDICATE HIS PEOPLE (REVISITED)’, preached on 17th May 2020; “God’s program with man is timed, for God does not play with time. God’s program with us [the Bride] is according to the time that He has set down.
If that time which He set is not come, He will not do anything, but immediately that time is come, what He spoke concerning the Bride must come to pass.
So, there is time for everything. There is time for your conversion. There is time for your perfection. And There is time for your translation.
When the time for translation comes, all that meet the requirements for translation must be translated. When the time is up and the alarm sounds, it will happen in a twinkling of an eye.
So I want us to see that the time has come now for the Lord to fulfil His Word which He spoke. He said, “So this is the year God is going to prove to the whole world that we are not worshipping Him in vain.” It is fulfilling to the letter.
This is the year we shall know the difference between those that worship God in spirit and in truth and those that worship God carnally for the difference shall be seen amongst us as believers.
Amen! God is behind every action of men right now, exposing all hypocrites and showcasing them for what they really are.
The time for going to church is over. The time for mechanical worship is over. This is the time for spiritual worship, and many have been marked out. I am telling you the whole truth.
God has marked many asterisks already. The manifestation is the interpretation, for the message said, “Whatever you see happening in anybody’s life, in every family, do not ever complain. And do not murmur, for the hand of God is behind it.”
All make-believers, all hypocrites; He said that God is going to expose all. Anyone He exposes in unbelief, He will mark bad and then continue. And the person will not die. He or she will remain hanging on.
Who knows how many He has already marked? Have we not been hearing it?
Who knows how many that are bearing that mark as I am talking to you now? Only God knows them and the people know themselves. Is it not true?
Hear Me very well. The examiner knows the student that will fail; a student that is not doing well. The next person that knows the student is the student himself. The examiner knows whoever that is going to fail. He that will fail knows that he is going to fail.
This is the year we shall know the difference between those that worship God in spirit and in truth and those that worship God carnally, for the difference shall be seen amongst us as believers. Not in the world, but among us as believers. Amen!
On this note, I want us to read an exposition of the seven church ages by William Marion Branham to see what he said about the hour, for the hour for the fulfilment has come.
AN EXPOSITION OF THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES DISTRIBUTED ON 4TH SEPTEMBER 1965 page 171 paragraph 1.
“Here is what I am trying to say to you. The law of reproduction is that each specie brings forth after its own kind,…” Sure!! Prophet Branham! 1965!
“…even according to Genesis 1:11. “And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.” Whatever life was in the seed came forth into a plant and thence into fruit. The very same law applies to the church today.” Yes!
“Whatever seed started in the church will come forth and be like original seed because it is the same seed.” Amen.
“In these last days, the true Bride Church (Christ’s seed) will come to the Headstone, and she will be the super church, a super race, as she nears Him.
They in the Bride will be so much like Him that they will even be in His very image. This is in order to be united with Him. They will be one. They will be the very manifestation of the Word of the Living God.
Denominations cannot produce this (wrong seed). They will produce their creeds and their dogmas, mixed with the Word. This mongrelizing brings forth a hybrid product.”
The world cannot produce what is about to be produces now. They are using their creed. A little while, they will go to the Bible and mix it. It does not work.
But the original Planner is using His Word in the Bible plus what it said that when He comes, He will take us to all the truths. So that has mixed it, it will produce the original life.
Page 171 paragraph 4. “From a little group of the true seed of the word, God will present Christ with a beloved Bride.” Amen!
“She is a virgin of the Word. She is a virgin because she knows no man-made creed or dogmas. By and through the members of the Bride, would be fulfilled all that was promised of God to be made manifest in the virgin.
That is why you are all Super Believers. All that were born and brought up in this Faith, who believe this Truth and they are continuing in it, and have become adults. You never mingled with any other group.
When we say Catholic, you do not know what they stand for. When we say Baptist or Presbyterian or Seventh Day Adventist or Sabbath or Cherubim, you do not know what they stand for. You do not know what they stand for. Not even one of you knows anything about Pentecostal.
So, you are pure blooded children of God. You started with The Original Seed which is the Original Word. You grew up with it. Now, you are adults, handling it.
Who can now separate you from what you had already believed to be true, vindicated and confirmed before many witnesses? Can the devil do that? Did you get the Message?
That is why William Branham said you have never seen revival yet. Nobody has ever started worshipping God among you until these your children you conceived and born in this Faith will grow up in this Faith and begin to handle this Word.
He said, “They would shake both the heavens and the earth. Then, you will see the real revival as it was in the Pentecost, back in the Bride.”
GOD’S CHILDREN WILL LOVE HIM AND ALSO HAVE HIS POTENTIALS
Page 172 paragraph 1-3. “The members of the virgin Bride will love Him and they will have His potentials,…”
They will love Him and also have His potentials. He did not say that they will hate Him and be void of His potentials. God forbid! You see how you measure yourself? Fine!
This is the period we are admiring the son of man more than ever. When you keep admiring something, you develop everything in that thing. You look like that thing.
Page 172 paragraph 1-3. “The members of the virgin Bride will love Him and they will have His potentials, for He is their head, and all power belongs to Him. They are subject to Him as the members of our bodies are subject to our heads.
Notice the harmony of the Father and the Son. Jesus never did anything until it was first showed Him by the Father. John 5:19. This harmony is now to exist between the Groom and His bride. He shows her His Word of life. She receives it. She never doubts it. Therefore, nothing can harm her, not even death. For if the seed be planted, the water will raise it up again.
Here is the secret of this. The Word is in the Bride (as it was in Mary). The Bride has the mind of Christ for she knows what He wants done with the Word. She performs the command of the Word…”
She is the one that does the practicing, for when there is weed, the weed almost wants to hinder everything that is coming to the real seed. That is truth!
Grass is weed and undergrowth. It tries to hinder everything. Undergrowth! Grass! Weed!
God described it for us when He was talking on the Grail Message. He said that the undergrowth tries to take away everything, but this is the time when the Bride is separated.
Then, you will see that she knows what to do with the Word and she practices it, putting it into action.
She performs the command of the Word in His name for she has “thus saith the Lord.” Then the Word is quickened by the Spirit and it comes to pass. Like a seed that is planted and watered, it comes to full harvest, serving its purpose.
THUS, THE ONLY WAY TO RUN AWAY FROM DESTRUCTION IS TO LINE UP BEHIND HIM. STAND BEHIND HIM. IF YOU GO IN FRONT, YOU DESTROY YOURSELF BECAUSE THE MOMENT YOU GO IN FRONT YOU LEAVE HIM BEHIND. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. WHEN YOU GO BEYOND THE WORD OF GOD THAT IS REVEALED IN YOUR DAY, YOU ARE IN FRONT, GOD IS BEHIND, MAN AND WOMAN ALIKE…….

THOSE IN THE BRIDE WILL DO GOD’S WILL [1]
THOSE IN THE BRIDE DO ONLY HIS WILL.” But today, are they doing His will? With the mouth they say, “May Thy will be done, O Lord”, but in application, in practice, do they allow the will of God to be done?
They want their own will to be done. They become God’s counselors. They become God’s instructors and guides. Nobody can say, “At Thy Word, O Lord”. Do you get what I am saying?
It is easier to sing “Have Thine own way LORD” than to practice it. Is it not true? Then, we have seen many gods. We have seen many gods.
I will know where everybody belongs to now, for you must go where you belong to, and I must go where I belong to.
THE GOD EVERYBODY HAS BELIEVED AND IS BELIEVING IS BEING MADE MANIFEST IN PRACTICE. THE MANIFESTATION HAS NOW BECOME THE INTERPRETATION. THAT’S ALL!
ONCE CHRIST IS IN YOU, YOUR ACTIONS ARE OF CHRIST and YOUR THOUGHTS ARE OF CHRIST. BUT IF CHRIST IS NOT IN YOU, THE DEVIL IS THERE.
If Christ is not in you and your actions are not Christ, not reflecting Christ, William Branham said; “You are a counterfeit and a blasphemer. Christ is not in there yet.”
Christ is not in there yet, for Christ can never stand against Christ. Can Christ stand against Christ? Deep calleth deep.
There is nobody who has the spirit of God that casts aspersions AT what God is doing. What God is doing in every generation is understood by every elect of that day. That is why every true elect of God is a part of whatEVER God is doing in his day.
William Branham said that in that church age, there is always a harmony. A harmony, not disharmony. There must be spiritual harmony, and there must be physical Harmony.
He [Branham] said that if God is in you and God is in me, we must speak the same thing on every matter. One cannot contradict the other, for wherever you see contradictions, misinterpretations, misconceptions, he said that the enemy has sneaked in.
One is holding the truth, while the other one is in error. But the truth will showcase itself at the end. Truth showcases itself at the end.
That is why William Branham said that the truth that saves is quiet, but reveals itself in action, for action speaks louder than voice.
“Those in the Bride do only his will.” Those in the Bride do only His will, and not their own will. Nobody will cause them to do otherwise, for that will signify death.
“No one can make them do otherwise. They have thus saith The Lord or they keep still.”
It is either thus says The Lord or they keep still. But first, they must know who that God is. They must know their Lord. Did you get what I am saying?
If you warn somebody to be very careful about the person he is making remarks of, “Be very careful. Do you really realize who you are talking to?”
And the person says, “Why should you say so? Who is He? Who is He that I cannot talk to Him?” Does that person know Him? Does that person know Him? Good. “Who is He that I cannot talk to Him? Who is He?” Does this fellow know Him?
“They have “thus saith The Lord” or they keep still.” Or they keep still! It is either the way the Lord wants it or they do nothing.
A true seed of God is always saying, “Do it the same way God has commanded us to do it.” Even by your own assessment, you may think that He is in error, but go and do it. The result will convince you that God knows the best.
MAN IS ALWAYS IN ERROR, BUT GOD CAN NEVER BE IN ERROR. REMEMBER THAT GOD’S OPINION IS ALWAYS IN THE MINORITY. GOD’S OPINION IS ACCEPTED WHEN HUMAN OPINION DISAPPOINTS THEM. TRUE OR FALSE?
GOD’S OWN PLAN OF LIFE CAN ONLY BE ADOPTED WHEN HUMAN PLANS HAVE FAILED. IS IT NOT TRUE?
Do not worry. They are making their own human plans of salvation, and God said He will rig all of them away.
19For it is written, I will baffle and render useless and destroy the learning of the learned and the philosophy of the philosophers and the cleverness of the clever and the discernment of the discerning; I will frustrate and nullify [them] and bring [them] to nothing. [1 Corinthians 1:19 AMP]
They will discover that all of them are useless nonsense. For man is filled with confusion. Is it not true?
That is why every plan a man is making outside God, confusion must set in. Confusion must set in. But in God, there is no confusion.
That is why, in the multitudes of suggestions there must be confusion. Did you get the message?
A MAN IS NOT IN DANGER UNTIL GOD THROWS SOMETHING TO YOU AND ASKS, “MAKE SUGGESTION”, AS IF GOD IS IGNORANT. YOU DO NOT KNOW THAT GOD WANTS TO GET SOMETHING FROM YOU.
WHENEVER GOD GIVES YOU THAT TYPE OF ASSIGNMENT, IF YOU ARE WISE AND UNDERSTANDING, GO AND PRAY. GO AND PRAY!
Does it mean that God has run out of senses or He does not know what to do? He does not know what is best for you and I? He does not know the end from the very beginning? What and what has He attempted, and then failed in the end?
Is there any you can lay hand on? But you can note all you attempted without Him, and where you landed. You later came back to Him, only to acknowledge that Jehovah is right and we are wrong as we have always been.
“Those in the bride do only his will.” Those in the Bride. That is how you know them. They do only His will. They do not do anything unless they get approval from God.
You can see what has been happening since yesterday to Brother Stephen. But now, he has run back to God. As I thought on my ways, I ran back to God. That God you avoided is the God you have come back to now.
59I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies. I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments. [Psalms 119:59 KJV]
Check all of them. They wanted to avoid God, but hey met trouble on the way. Oh no! Tell Me how you can jump God without jumping into troubles.
If God does not make a way for you, do you think that you can make a headway? Impossible! If God does not make a way for you, you are making a futile attempt, for God frustrates all the ambitions of the wicked. Is it not scriptural?
12He frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise or anything of [lasting] worth. 13He catches the [so-called] wise in their own trickiness, and the counsel of the schemers is brought to a quick end. 14In the daytime they meet in darkness, and at noon they grope as in the night. [Job 5:12 – 14 AMP]
10The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect. 11The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. 12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. [Psalms 33:10 – 12]
Pray that God will not label you a wicked fellow. Do not provoke God to the point where He will label you wicked. Then, He will deal with you wickedly, frustrate all your ambitions, and then, you will be on a standstill until you begin to beg bread.
And He will see you and look away because you are the one that incurred it to yourself. At the end, you will come back to God again.
All that blasphemed Job, were they not the people that came back?
7After the Lord had said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.
8So now take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. You have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.”
9So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite did what the Lord told them; and the Lord accepted Job’s prayer. [Job 42:7 – 9 NIV]
All that blasphemed Samuel, did they not come back?
17Is it not wheat harvest now? I will call upon the Lord to send thunder and rain. And you will realize what an evil thing you did in the eyes of the Lord when you asked for a king.”
18Then Samuel called upon the Lord, and that same day the Lord sent thunder and rain. So all the people stood in awe of the Lord and of Samuel.
19The people all said to Samuel, “Pray to the Lord your God for your servants so that we will not die, for we have added to all our other sins the evil of asking for a king.” [1 Samuel 12:17 – 19 NIV]
They even offered sacrifices for when they came back, conditions were given to them.
You cannot see the face of My servant without buying costly things to come and appease him. And then, he will pray for you that God will forgive you or else you die in your iniquity.
“Those in the bride will do only his will.” Those that are not in the Bride, but they are among us hanging about, they have nothing to do with the will of God. They do not even know the will of God.
They do not enquire of the Lord. Even when The Lord speaks, they find it difficult to say Amen.
They will not, for they are always trying to corner God to their side, instead of following God so that God can be their Guide, their Instructor and everything.
This is because the Scripture says that we should look up to Him as the Author and Finisher. Is it our faith alone? Our lives as well. Without Him, shall we be here?
Are we not alive because of God? What if He took our lives away and all our boasts, where shall we land? He holds our breath in His hand and that is why nobody toils with Him anyhow.
He is slow to anger, slow to speak and slow in judgement. He has no sufficient time. It is because He does not punish people instantly, that is why iniquity is growing every day.
And people think that He is weak. God is never weak. God can never be weak. Who is that person that will weaken God?
You know, it marvels Me that in our own day, we adjudge ourselves right and declare God wrong.
If we do not believe that God is wrong, we would be following Him. All that are saying no to our Message, are they not saying no because they think we are wrong?
If they believe we are right, they will be with us. He that is not with Me is against Me. He that is not gathering is scattering. He that is not building is pulling down. True or false?
“Those in the bride do only his will. No one can make them do otherwise. They have “thus saith The Lord”… Nobody can cause then to do otherwise.
“They have “THUS SAITH THE LORD” or they keep still. They know that it has to be God in them doing the works.” Hallelujah!
[13]For God is at work within you, helping you want to obey him, and then helping you do what he wants. [Philippians 2:13 LB]
Without God we can do nothing. Tell Me what we can achieve or boast of achieving without God? Absolutely nothing. I can of Myself do nothing.
“So it is according to Philippians 2:13. They know that it has to be God in them doing the works, fulfilling His own Word.
He did not complete all his work while in his earthly ministry. So, now, He works in and through the Bride.” He works in and through the Bride to complete the assignment.
“She knows that, for it was not yet time for Him to do certain things that He must now do. But He will now fulfil through the Bride, that His work which he left for that specific time.” This is the time. The Word is coming to pass now. Is the prophet on the scene?
William Brahman died in 1965, but the prophecy is now fulfilling.
He knows that the specific time will come. And that specific time could not come without the great omnipotent being on earth. He is the one that is going to bring that thing to pass.
The Mission of the Son of Man is the continuation and consummation of the Mission of the Son of God, since the Mission of the Son of God could only be a transient one.
Hence in the continuation and completion it is at the same time a reinforcement of Christ’s mission. Whereas the Son of God was born directly into His earthly Mission, the Son of Man had to traverse a far wider sphere before He could enter into the beginning of His actual Mission.
As a condition for the fulfillment of His task, which in comparison to that of the Son of God was more earthly, the Son of Man, coming as He did from the highest Heights, also had to descend into the deepest depths. Not only in the beyond but also here on earth, so that He might personally “experience” all the misery and suffering of mankind. Only then will He be in the position, when His Hour comes, to intervene effectively in their shortcomings and help to bring about change.
For this reason, He could not stand aside from the experiences of mankind, but through experiencing the bitter aspects Himself, He had to stand in the midst of them and suffer from them. Again, it was only for the sake of men that His learning period had to be like this. [IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH: The Grail Message; “THE SON OF MAN” by Abd-Ru-Shin]
…… PASS THIS INFORMATION TO YOUR CHILDREN. YOU WILL ALL BE SAVED IF YOU ABIDE IN ME AND I ABIDE IN YOU. BUT IF YOU HAVE REASON TO DOUBT WHETHER I AM ABLE TO SAVE YOU, YOU ARE ALREADY LOST. BECAUSE I AM THE PERFECT GUIDE ASSIGNED TO BRING GOD’S PEOPLE HOME IN THIS GENERATION. HENCE, I SIGNED MY LIFE IN. SO MY LIFE IS THERE.

THOSE IN THE BRIDE WILL DO GOD’S WILL [2]
So, the life that does not follow God daily is not worthy. A life that does not follow God daily is not worthy.
This is why He said that when you are following a man, you do not give a distance. You are very close so that you will see everything that is taking place.
We have got to follow the Word which is the Spirit of God every day and every hour of the day. Every step we take must agree with the Word.
And who is the Word? Without controversy, great is the mystery of Godliness.
16And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. [1 Timothy 3:16 KJV]
You know, people do not believe that the Word has become flesh again. The Word is now flesh. Christ has now become a human being again living in The Bride and in the midst of The Bride to complete the work which He never completed in the first advent. Sure! William Branham is a prophet.
[14]And Christ became a human being and lived here on earth among us and was full of loving forgiveness and truth. And some of us have seen his glory—the glory of the only Son of the heavenly Father! [John 1:14 LB]
[14]Since we, God’s children, are human beings—made of flesh and blood—he became flesh and blood too by being born in human form; for only as a human being could he die and in dying break the power of the devil who had the power of death. [Hebrews 2:14 LB]
13Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. [John 16:13 KJV]
Every step we take must agree with the Word, for we can do nothing without the word. And we know whom the word is. We know who the Word is. God en-morphy, THE SON OF MAN, Apostle Peter Odoemena (blessed be His most holy name).
We go to the message; AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, AS IT WAS IN THE DAY OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH – MYSTERY REVEALED page 16 vs. 5 and Page 17 vs. 8.
“5All of a sudden, one day, something strange, something spectacular started happening revealing Him to be more than what they thought He is.
Strange and extraordinary things started happening around One they are acquainted with, but they never knew Him by those things.” Yes!!!
Verse 8. “8One who started as a mustard seed has now grown to a size where His Fame and Glory has filled the whole earth,… Sure!!! …for the glory of God must fill the whole earth. The presence of God must fill the whole earth. His Fame must fill the whole earth.” His Fame has filled the whole earth.
That is why He is not a local statement. If somebody is making a local statement today, we just ignore him because we are not talking about One who is local. We are talking of the Glory of God that has filled the whole earth.
You see why the exit of one person is not noticeable. True or false? That one person is like a grain of sand in an ash heap.
When a tipper is loaded with sand and a grain of sand or even four shovelfuls of sand drops on the main road, will the driver stop because of that? As the tipper is moving, so the sand is falling off the tipper.
Yet, the lost sand can never reduce the quantity at the destination from being considered as one trip. And the driver will not, at any time, stop so as to recover the sand that dropped off the tipper along the way.
We know this God we are worshipping, that this God we are worshipping has come to do what He said, that This is the year I will prove to the whole world that those who are worshipping Me in spirit and in truth are not worshipping Me in vain.
He wants to prove to the whole world that we are not worshipping Him in vain.
I AM THE LORD, I CHANGETH NOT; Page 23 vs 1-2. “I believe the Bride and the Bridegroom are united. Ask me the hour we are in, I will say it is the wedding time.
This is the wedding time. The wedding that was prophesied in the Bible is about to take place.” Invisible union of the bride.
“In other words, the Bride is coming closer with the Bridegroom every day. And any moment from now, they will fuse together never to separate again. I believe that with all my heart.”
This will roll into a day we will worship and never return back to our homes. Sure!!! Have you seen it? So, it starts from somewhere.
Every day, the Bride is coming closer to the Bridegroom. And there is a day they will fuse and no more separation.
THE TIDE IS GATHERING: WE ARE WAITING AT THE APPROVED PLACE; Preached 11th May 2012. Page 45 from verse 17 – 18.
“We have been taught all these years. And this is the hour of presentation of the Bride.”
The other one we read said, “We have seen the hour. It is the wedding time.” When do you present the Bride? In the wedding. It is in the wedding you present your Bride.
“The hour of the presentation of the Bride. You must know what is happening. This is the hour of presentation of the Bride. The Bride, the Body of Christ is about to be handed over to the real owner.” Amen!!!
THE TIDE IS GATHERING: WE ARE WAITING AT THE APPROVED PLACE; Preached 11th May 2012. Page 46 verse 20.
“The Bride is about to be delivered to the Owner. The Kingdom is about to be delivered into the hands of the Owner.” Amen!!!
“Father, this is the much I gathered from the earth. Alleluia! From the zone where you posted Me all these years, these are the number I gathered. No more. No less.”
Page 47 verse 23. “Note! One Lord, one Faith, one Baptism. Thus, the Body of Christ is one indivisible entity, unique and must be presented same as a unique entity.”
The body is the unique entity. One Lord, our everything. Look, once the same spirit is in you and me, our characters become one. Amen!!!
Once the same spirit is in all of us; once we are possessing the spirit of Christ, our characters must be one, for God has one nature. Is it not true?
It must be one God, one nature, one paradise, one name. Nothing is two there.
4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. [Ephesians 4:4 – 6 KJV]
The Bible said that in that day, the Lord your God shall be presented as one and His name, one. His people, one. His kingdom, one. His nature, one.
9And the Lord shall be King over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one. [Zechariah 14:9]
God’s nature, our ticket to paradise. Anything outside it, you are lost. If God is not comfortable to dwell with you here on earth, will He be comfortable to dwell with you in Paradise? That is why there is sifting at the gate. Sifting is on. Sieving is on.
And God is saying that He is doing it Himself. He gave you the Message, TEMPTATIONS: TRIAL OF YOUR FAITH. They come in diverse forms to prove who is who, for every person’s faith must be tested by THE SON OF MAN in diverse ways.
If you are the one that is desirous of the world, He will use worldly things to test you. If money is your destiny, He will show you avenue for that. God will use your delights to test you.
Page 50 verse 32. “Note it very well. People with similar identify must be packed in one place.”
We heard it also in the other Message we read. People with similar character [identity] must be packed in one place.
People of identical character must be packed on one side. Take note also that all the hypocrites will be packed where hypocrites are packed. Q.E.D! That is what we are saying.
And all of them are hanging on the fence. They are hanging on the fence. And you think they are with us.
The manifestation is the interpretation. I do not know who they are, but they know themselves. If the Word of God has marked you out, you are out. Is it not true?
You can have everything in common with Christ here, but you will miss paradise.
Remember we are talking about eternal life in Paradise and eternal life in hell [eternal punishment]. Eternal life in paradise versus eternal punishment in hell.
Who will feel it most? He that came in contact with this truth, but the things of this world pushed him out. Self-ego, pride, money, popularity and many other things like that. Things that have no eternal value.
Page 64 v 5. “You must know your position before the D-day.” Amen!!! “If at the end, you fail to make it, you will not ask why, for the ‘why’ will be answered by you.”
Brethren, is it true? If I ask why I am not in the number, I will be the one to answer the ‘why’ because what I am doing is very clear to me.
I heard the Word of God calling me back, but I never paid heed. I want to be independent. I want to lead myself. I want to guide myself. Away with Him! The unrecognized Messiah is our destruction.
We read it in the Message that the unrecognized Messiah will be the destruction of our age. As the unrecognized Messiah destroyed people in time past, so the unrecognized Messiah will destroy them again.
But this time, He will sentence all both the past and the present into eternal punishment.
He that will believe God must first of all believe that He is and He exists.
6But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. [Hebrews 11:6 KJV]
6And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. [Hebrews 11:6 NIV]
And you know Him, get acquainted with Him personally and practically.
19[That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! [Ephesians 3:19 AMP]
Make sure that your experiences in Him will sustain you. Worshipping God without experience is wasting time. Am I making sense?

YOU MUST KNOW YOUR POSITION IN CHRIST [1]
THE TIDE IS GATHERING: WE ARE WAITING AT THE APPROVED PLACE; Preached 11th May 2012. Page 64 from verse 5.
“You must know your position before the D-day. Sure!!! If at the end, you fail to make it, you will not ask why for the ‘why’ will be answered by you.” Yes!!!
There is nothing we are talking about in these Messages that all of us that are in the Faith will say we never heard about. Yes! But it is exactly what I told you about the wise and the foolish virgins. Good!
The foolish always take things for granted; everything is common. It has happened, we have heard it, the Lord said so. But why did you not take it serious till you see it fully manifesting?
It is just like The Lord is telling us. You do not rest till you see your body translated, changed in the twinkling of an eye. You do not rest.
That is the completeness of our salvation. Every other thing is useless nonsense. They are passing with the passing world.
That is why the LORD is saying that everybody will be packed where their likes of character are. So now, it is the Bride being packed in one place, having the same character. Sure!!! Their attitude, One.
They do not rest. They do not play with the Word of God. They hold unto the Word of God. They live that life till they see it fully manifested in them. Amen.
Page 66 v 10. “Nobody can be neutral on this matter. Amen!!! You must know your position before that D-day.”
All that are united in the body and also in the spirit are the only people God is taking home. Hallelujah!
All that are united in the body and also in the spirit; they are the qualified people for Paradise, for they will not cause confusion when they get there. No disharmony.
When these two; spirit and body are united, then the character must be one, for behind every character, there is always a spirit.
If our character is one, what is the spirit behind it? It is one spirit. It is the Holy Spirit, being the Spirit of the Living God.
Remember that after decorating the Bride, He will present her unto Himself as a glorious virgin, not having spot or wrinkle or blemish.
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. [Ephesians 5:25 – 27 KJV]
The Holy Spirit will bear witness of the level of work, the level of transformation and the level of change that has taken place in your life and in my life which we credit to God and God alone, because whatever God does is eternal. Nothing can be added or subtracted from it. if you believe it say Amen.
We believe it with all our heart that this one is completely God doing His work, for we see changes in our lives on a daily basis. Why? It is because the undergrowth is not thee to hinder many things again. It is now flowing directly into the Bride. Alleluia!
Are you getting it? Sure!!! God has a purpose He wants to achieve in every situation. So by now, we should know how to follow God at His Word saying, “At Thy Word O LORD.” This is how we are to follow God now.
Let us read from the message, TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, preached on 25th October 2014, page 32 from verse 17-18. “You see why if you must follow God, it must be, “At Thy Word.” What was the reason why the Lord vowed that He will destroy those he saved?”
He will destroy those He saved. Saved and destroyed. What was the reason?
“They came to a point where they could not take the word of God seriously anymore because of his closeness to them, his friendliness to them.” Alleluia!!! Over-familiarity!
The true Elect no matter how close they are to God,… The true Elect! Yes! We have false “Elect.” And we have true elect
The true Elect, no matter how close they are to God, they do not play. They take His Word serious.
The Message is saying that they could not take His Word serious anymore because of his closeness to them; His friendliness to them.
Is that enough reason for you not to take His Word seriously? No! Rather, that is the more reason why you should take His Word very seriously.
If we claim we believe this true and Living God who revealed Himself to us, then the question remains, “What is this belief?” We will see what the Word says this belief is in page 29 verse 7-8 of the same Message.
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, Page 32 from verse 17-18. “Believe means “doubting nothing”. Believe means “at his word”. “Believe means “stop reasoning!”” Believe means doubting nothing! At His Word! Stop reasoning!
“If God has said it, it is guaranteed. He says what He means, and He means what He says. Anything contrary is of the devil.
That is why Amplified version of the Bible magnified it thus, “Believe in, confide in, rely on, depend on, cleave to.” If you check these keywords in your dictionary, the summary is, “get glued to.”
This is exactly what God is saying to us that as true members of the Bride, get glued to God. When you glue something together, it is not easy to separate it.
SO, THIS IS THE PERIOD OF GETTING GLUED TO GOD,… IT IS NOT GETTING GLUED TO THE WORLD. YOU EITHER GET GLUED TO GOD OR GET GLUED TO THE WORLD, WHICH IS THE DEVIL.
Tell Me how we can be blind into believing that, that which we could not achieve all these years that we can achieve it in this period of economic meltdown?
A period of Global economic meltdown when everybody is just trying to manage one thing or the other, just to see whether we can eat and then live to see what tomorrow holds.
Is it this period that we will begin to think that we can be millionaires? Begin to embark on gigantic projects for the future? God forbid!
So, this is the period of getting glued to God, who happens to be our Husband, our Master, our Guide and our Instructor, for He is our eyes, and we cannot see without Him.
He is the One that knoweth all things. We know nothing without Him. he is the One that heareth all things and reveals them to us, for the head has then eyes to know with the mouth and the ears on it.
He hears all things. He seeth all things. He knows all things. And He speaks to us all we need to know. So, we should get glued to Him at this hour.
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, Page 34 vs 22. “If God tells you something and you disobey, He will pen it down till the day of judgement.” Alleluia! Amen
“When He came to judgement, He decided that no more, “I cannot bear with them anymore.””
We fail to understand that God has been telling us that for everything that takes place, there is a record that is kept. Allah is swift in taking records!
62Then they are returned to God, their Maulâ [True Master (God), the Just Lord (to reward them)]. Surely, His is the judgement and He is the Swiftest in taking account. [Surah 6:62. Also found in Surah 3:19, 199 and Surah 24:39]
If human beings can create CCTV, what do you think God can do? Greater than CCTV. Whatever you are doing is being penned down by that CCTV which you cannot deny because it will be replayed back to you.
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, Page 44 vs. 22. “There is no human being that can predict the way God will come his way. If you know the way God will save you, He will never save you. If you know the way God will come your way, the Lord will never come your way.”
This is why, all we have to be doing is obedience. Remain obedient doing all He tells you to do. How He is going to come your way, you do not know.
It is not for to say, “This thing I am doing, I know I am doing it right” because that is what you feel. We are not to walk according to our feelings. We are to walk according to the leading of the Spirit of God, which is the Word of God.
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, Page 51 vs 44-48. “In many ways, we offend him and we think it is a light thing. There is nothing as bad as one being disobedient to the Word of God,… Amen! …thinking that it is a light thing. It is not a light thing.” Amen!!!
Many offend God and look at it as a light thing. True or false?
That is why disobedience to God’s Word is a light thing to anybody that is destined to perish. Blasphemy is a light thing to anybody who is already on his way to hell fire.
Some even think they will be declared right and God wrong. Or they will come up with a case against God and win. Then, God will be the looser. Is it not madness?
Who has ever won any case against God since the world began? Check your Scripture. Check Qur’an and check everywhere.
Maybe we are going to record one in our own age. One that took God to court and won. I mean he wins God. And then, God came out a looser.
Has God ever been a looser? God has always been the winner. God must surely win as He has always been winning.
Man must fail for man has always been failing, failing himself, failing his fellow man and failing God. That is man. Failure is associated with man. Disappointment is associated with man. There is no disappointment with God.
Many offend God and look at it as a light thing. It does not matter.
From verse 45. “It may be light in your own eyes but to God, it is not a light thing. That is why William Branham summarized it saying; “Whatever you call big, God calls small. What you call small, God calls big.”
This is because God is so simple; His instructions, so simple; Everything, so simple that they may be flying over the head of all the philosophers of our day.
He said, “God appearing in simplicity is to rig away all human intellect, human reasoning so that all those great minds will be proved to be useless nonsense.”
There is one word I use to describe this Faith, that we are in “A Zombified Faith”. If you are not willing to follow God like a zombie, you can never smell Eternal Life.” Amen!!!
You can never use adult sense to enter Paradise. It requires childlike faith, childlike trust, childlike obedience. I thank God that you have received all these Messages, even very recently. They are all documented. True or false?
“If you are not willing to follow god like a zombie, you can never smell eternal life, for God will give you unimaginable instructions. Sometimes, they sound foolish.
Page 55 from verse 56 – 64. “God can come your way in any form. God can talk to you in any form. God can instruct you in any form. That is why He told us that there is a general instruction and there is a personal instruction.
There is a message God can give us as a congregation, equally, there is a message He can give us as Nigeria. There is a message He can give us as Onitsha….
God made a statement and said, “I know My sheep and My sheep knoweth Me, they know My voice, My sheep heareth Me and I call them by their names.”
In the book of Ezekiel, He said, “I know you and the thoughts of your hearts. I call you by your names and I know your dwelling places.” Can’t you think about it, that God knows you and the thoughts of your hearts?
That God knows you by your names and knows your dwelling places. That is why there is no way you can wriggle out. If not by devoting your life, committing your life fully to the course of Christ.’
There is no way to wriggle out of it. He knows my thoughts. He knows My heart. He knows my dwelling place. He knows everything about me. So, is there any hiding place?
The only way to wriggle out is to commit my life fully to the course of Christ. Running away, is it going to help you?
When St. Paul appeared, a time came when he was angry, he said that everybody had become selfish. That nobody was pursuing the course of Christ anymore.
He said “I am left alone”. The people were rejoicing, but they did not know that it was a condemnation that he was presenting to Jehovah concerning them.
The day the children of Israel died was the day Moses came out to rehearse their iniquity. They thought that it was Moses speaking to them without knowing that it was Almighty God speaking to them through Moses.
Do not say we are better than them? We have not performed better. If they sinned ten times against God in forty years, it means they sinned once in four years. Forty years they sinned against God, they fought, which means ten times in forty years. They were great people. They were better than us!
They sinned only ten times in forty years. Are they not better?
HE THAT ASKED THE QUESTION SUPPLIED THE ANSWER: “BELIEVE IN HIM WHOM HE HAS SENT.” HE SAID, “THIS IS THE CONDEMNATION, THAT LIGHT CAME TO THE WORLD, THEY REJECTED THE LIGHT AND WENT TO THE WAY OF DARKNESS THAT FOR HE THAT BELIEVES IN HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED. BUT WHOEVER THAT DOES NOT BELIEVE IN HIM, CONFIDE IN HIM, DEPEND ON HIM IS CONDEMNED ALREADY.

YOU MUST KNOW YOUR POSITION IN CHRIST [2]
Take God at His Word; Preached on 25th October 2014; Page 58 from verse 65. “Are you sure you do not sin against the Son of Man ten times every day? God is not wicked, God is just.
What am I saying? Be very careful. Be very careful, so that over familiarity will not set in.”
If it does not set in, the Great Seer will not tell you
“If you go to the Great Sermon, God said, “Don’t ever, for any reason at all, come to the point where you begin to brag, “He is my father. He is my husband. He is my town’s man. He is my this, and He is my that”, and for that reason, you fail to take Him at His Word. That will be your doom. Amen.
Once you fail to continue in the profession of your Faith, God, THE SON OF MAN will become too small in your eyes. Over-familiarity sets in, I know Him. I know Him. He does not mean what He is saying. That will become your common language.
And when you begin to say things like that, you begin to do things anyhow, this is why, from the beginning of the Message, we made you to see that God had to show us how to worship this God. And that He is not a different God. He is the same God. He is the same Ancient of Days.
Do you worship Him anyhow? No! You have to take Him at His Word. We know how to follow this God now. We have to take Him “At Thy Word, O LORD.” That is how we follow this God. God is not threatening anybody but He is saying something to us.
Promise are you with us? You are behaving like someone that has been afflicted with madness. You have been picking at your eyes, ears and your lips.
TO WHAT EXTENT HAS GOD BEEN YOUR COUNSELOR? Preached on 16th February 2020. Page 90 verse 58
“The Bible said, “He has been bearing with you to know if you will come back to your full senses and repent, because He has stipulated a date to judge the world in righteousness through that same person whom He has chosen for Himself and has revealed Him as The Resurrected Body, who resurrected from death into life.”
And we have the Resurrected Body. We know Him. He is the One that is going to judge the world. Is He frightening anybody? He is not. He is telling us because He is the Judge, and because He loves us, He begins to tell us what is lying before us.
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, preached on 25th October 2014, page 64 from verse 10-24.
“I am not frightening anybody because I am the Self-Existing One, the Elohim. If I tell all of you including my children to leave this place today, will anybody remain here? Do not ask me how I will survive, it is a mystery, it is like the house you construct.
The house is a mystery. It is a surprise to all of you, and it shall remain a surprise to you. My life is a mystery and the more you look, the less you see.
A prophet can reveal all things to you, but he can never reveal to you that which makes Him God. It is upon this fact that people fear God.”
But you look at the Son of Man. The more you look at Him, the less you see. You do not even know what to say because He is a mystery. He is a Paradox. Everything happening around Him is a Mystery. He is a Paradox.
That is why He said that a prophet can reveal all things to you, but He can never reveal to you that which makes Him God.
“However, I am not a prophet. Greater than Moses is here. Greater than Elijah is here. Greater than all these prophets is here, talking to you, live.”
Greater than Jesus is here. “Who is THE SON OF MAN that God has committed everything he has into his hands? Without THE SON OF MAN, who will worship God rightly? Nobody!
That is why the Bible said, “strengthen the man in your right hand even THE SON OF MAN that we may worship him rightly. Without him, we cannot worship God rightly.
[17]STRENGTHEN THE MAN YOU LOVE, THE SON OF YOUR CHOICE, [18]AND WE WILL NEVER FORSAKE YOU AGAIN. Revive us to trust in you. [Psalms 80:17-18 AMP]
17Let Your hand be upon the man of Your right hand, upon the son of man whom You have made strong for Yourself. 18Then will we not depart from You; revive us (give us life) and we will call upon Your name. [Psalms 80:17 AMP]
Somebody God has committed the judgement of the world into His hand. And that God does not judge any man, but He has committed judgement into the hands of his dear Son for He is THE SON OF MAN.
22Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, ……. 27And He has given Him authority to judge because He is the Son of Man. [John 5:22, 27 NIV]
And He warned concerning the day when THE SON OF MAN Shall appear. Even prophet Enoch and other prophets foretold everything about THE SON OF MAN.
7For from the beginning the Son of Man was hidden, and the Most High preserved Him in the presence of His might, and revealed Him to the Elect. 8And the congregation of the Elect and holy shall be sown, and all the Elect shall stand before Him on that day.
9And all the kings and the mighty and the exalted and those who rule the earth shall fall down before Him on their faces, and worship and set their hope on that Son of Man, and petition Him and supplicate for mercy at His hands.
10Nevertheless that Lord of spirits will so press them that they shall heavily go out from His presence, and their faces shall be filled with shame, and the darkness grows deeper on their faces. 11And He will deliver them to the angels for punishment, to execute vengeance on them because they have oppressed His children and His Elect.
12And they shall be a spectacle for the righteous and for His Elect. They shall rejoice over them, because the wrath of the Lord of spirits rests on them, and His sword is drunk with their blood.
13The righteous and Elect shall be saved on that day, and they shall never again see the face of the sinners and unrighteous. 14And the Lord of spirits will abide over them, and they shall eat, lie down and rise up with the Son of Man for ever and ever. [Ethiopic Book of Enoch 62:7 – 13]
3″This is the son of Man who hath righteousness, with whom dwells righteousness, and who reveals all the treasures of that which is hidden, because the Lord of spirits hath chosen him, and whose lot has preeminence before the Lord of spirits in righteousness and is forever.
4And this Son of Man whom you have seen shall raise up the kings and the mighty from their seats, and the strong from their thrones and shall loosen the reins of the strong, and break the teeth of the sinners. 5And he shall put down the kings from their thrones and kingdoms because they do not exalt and praise Him, nor humbly acknowledge who bestowed their kingdom on them.
6And he shall make the strong hang their heads, and shall fill them with shame. And darkness shall be their dwelling, and worms shall be their bed, and they shall have no hope of rising from their beds, because they do not exalt the Name of the Lord of spirits.” [Ethiopic Book of Enoch 46:3 – 6]
“And I swear by the Lord who holds my life in His hands that the son of Mary shall surely appear among you as just arbiter and shall break the cross, annihilate the swine and abolish Jazia.” [Sahih Bukhari, Kitab Bad’ul Khalq, Bab Nazooli Isa Bin Maryam]
“Whosoever lives from among you shall meet Isa, son of Mary who is IMAM, MAHDI, ARBITER and JUDGE.” [Musnad Ahmad bin Hanbal, Vol. 2, p. 411]
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD, preached on 25th October 2014, page 74 from verse 15. “And He warned concerning the day the Son of Man shall appear. He told you that THE SON OF MAN will have his own generation and the time to expect it is when the world will be in the state of the days of Noah and the day of Sodom and Gomorrah.”
Is it a lie? Are we not in the days of THE SON OF MAN? Is the world not in a Sodomite condition? Tell Me, is it not like the days of Noah again? He appeared according to time, according to prophecies and according to the Scriptures. And He is doing the works assigned to Him.
“Then you will expect the Son of Man. As it was in the days of Noah, as it was in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, so shall it be in the days when the Son of Man shall come.”
26And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. 28Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; [Luke 17:26 – 28 KJV]
“You will see Him appearing in the Clouds of Heaven. The Cloud received Him, the Cloud will release Him.”
9And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. [Acts 1:9 – 11 KJV]
1And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: [Revelation 10:1 KJV]
“You saw everything with your eyes. What is more? You saw the Godhead which He told you about as far back as 1993, “I am bringing down the Godhead.”
He said, “Follow Me strictly. Before your very eyes, I will show you the Godhead. I must preach it down.” The day it pleased Him, He released the Godhead.
Bishop Moses in appreciation of what the Lord has done for him, he took a photograph of the Son of Man in the fellowship on one Sunday during fellowship. Instead of capturing the congregation no human being appeared. What stood before Him was the Godhead. He revealed the Godhead.
This is because, in Me (The Son of Man) dwelleth the fullness of Godhead bodily.
Looking at you, you are digging your graves gradually. It is not the day one transgressed against Dagon that he is summoned to the shrine.
I do not believe that it was the first day the people of God started sinning against Him that He began to punish them.” No! “He was discouraging them from certain habits, giving them some advice that would help them in life.
But a time came when He became an orator to them. They took Him as a talkative, “That is how He talks, He did not mean it, we know He did not mean it.””
This is what rolled into our midst. True or false? He kept telling us, giving us advice that there are certain things, characters and ways we should avoid.
But at a stage, THE SON OF MAN became an orator and a talkative. We now started playing with His Word, “It does not matter.” No matter what happens, we will make it.
How are you going to make it outside He that is talking to you? Outside Him, you cannot make it. Have you gone this way before?
“William Branham said, “Do not ever see Him as the God of mercy, full of love, full of mercy, full of this and that, but see Him also as the God of judgement.”
A Very hot water does not kill housefly. No housefly flies over a very hot water. God in His thundering Voice does not destroy. In the smoking side of God, nobody dies, His people are afraid. Whenever the lion roars, they will fear, the land will tremble.
But when they think that God has gone to exile, He is exiled from home, because everything has become quiet, He keeps quiet in everything you do; that is the time when He is reasoning within Himself, until He gets to the next level, what steps to take.”
Now is that quiet time. Are you hearing the roaring lion? Everything is quiet. It is difficult to see Him now. You only hear His Voice and download it.
Can you download him? Can you download his actions? Can you download his face? Can you download what He is doing? This is the time that is more dangerous than when He was roaring.
Do you believe it? God is the one who keeps quiet, yet He has a lot to say. If He speaks, you will know His mind, but if He keeps quiet, will you kill Him?
When the lion is roaring, it is not dangerous. It is when he is quiet. when he sees you and goes away, then turns around and returns, you are finished. He will not roar. He will not shout. He will just devour you.
Page 70 verse 24. “What am I saying? Please, please, please, I am appealing to all of you, “Run for your lives, man or woman. Salvation goes to the individual, not to the congregation.””
Not to the family because you are great, or because you are this or that. In the family, one will be taken and the other left. Is it not true? “Two will be in the bed”, is it not family? “One will be taken, the other left.”
“Two will be in the mill”, is it not family? “One will be taken, the other left. Two will be in the farm”, is it not family? “One taken, the other left.”
40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. [Luke 24:40 – 41 KJV]
The withdrawal of Lot’s wife never stopped the salvation of Lot and the daughters.
“No community has ever been given Eternal Life. Eternal Life is bestowed to an individual. This is the much I want to tell you.”
This is what we are seeing in this hour. Sure!!! It goes to individuals. No contentions about it. That is how it is happening. It is individual. So, it is not a collective matter.
We must recognize that we are serving God and standing before God as individuals.
Now that we are standing as individuals, can you give excuse that somebody caused your failure? “Somebody caused me to disbelieve God. It was his statement. It was this thing that made me to doubt God. For that reason, I am now going to hell.” Is it excuse?
You are standing alone. I am standing alone. You are on your own. I am on My own. Period! My salvation is in My hands. My destruction, in My hands.
I know we have listened to the Message of this morning. We listened to it. Wisdom, did you listen to the Message of today and that of yesterday? So, you are qualified.
This is because anybody that never listened to those two Messages will never be qualified to read this one or to hear this one. You can see, it is a continuation from different Ministers. This one, Akwa-Ibom. This one, Kaduna. Any contradiction? A sure sign that they have the spirit of Christ.
“Just follow Me doubting nothing. Follow Me, that is all. Do you need salvation? Follow Me, for I do not want you to perish. I do not want you to perish and I know I know the way. I know I know the way. I know I am holding the truth. I know very well that I am He. I know very well…”

WARNING BEFORE DESTRUCTION
TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD; Preached on 25th October 2014; Page 75 from verse 4. “With the head knowledge, you can balance the whole faith, but spiritually you are barren. You cannot be fruitful spiritually. You must combine the two so that your faith will stand unshakable.”
You must combine the two. Both physical and spiritual knowledge. If you do not combine them, your faith cannot stand solidly.
“If I do not warn you ahead of time, I will be guilty tomorrow.” Warning before judgement. Warning before destruction.
“Cast your minds back. Go back to the record. Find out the people that walked with God and became perfect. Find out the people that walked with God and they were condemned.
Bring it to your own day. Find out those that had walked with THE SON OF MAN in the beginning, whose positions are no more today.
You might be the next victim if you are not careful.” Prophecy!
“Do not allow your testimony to end on how you favoured THE SON OF MAN in one way or the other, walked with him, ate with him, drank with him.”
The Almighty God had already told us that this is the period He wants to prove that we are not worshipping Him in vain. He wants to show the difference between those that are worshipping Him spiritually and those that are worshipping Him carnally.
“But God said, “With many of them, He was not pleased”. With many of those people that worked with Him, He was not pleased. And along the way, He destroyed all. He was not pleased with them
What do you think that displeased God from these people? Was He begging them food? Was He begging them money? Was He (God) obstructing their ways? He noticed something in their lives …”
So God notices something in the life of every one of us, and He talks to us. Is it not for our own good?
“He noticed something in their lives (they never took His word seriously). His words meant nothing to them.”
That is where the problem lied and that is where the problem is still lying. Amen!!!
We should never come to that point of playing with the Word of God because He has told us, “In anything I say, take Me seriously.”
“That was why Prophet William Branham warned all. He said, “Do not ever come to the point where the message of the Messenger of God will become common to your ears or else you get lost.””
Even if I am doing something and my son opens the Message and says, “Daddy look! This way you are going is wrong”, I shiver. He is not the one saying it. but he is only an instrument that Word is using to come to me. Yes!!!
Brother Branham said, “This Word can lie on this table. It will not do anything to you. But it is when you go into the Word that you will see what the Word is saying and then, you will get next to yourself.”
God predicted what will happen in the end. He predicted it a long time ago as He was talking to us on that issue.
Page 76 from verse 14. “He said, “Any moment from now, towards the end of this Ministry, the Son of Man will be far from many of you.”
Is it not happening? He predicted it.
“He will be watching you from a grandstand. He will be attending fellowship any time He wants.
He may even decide to take His family and stay at Benjamin and stop fellowshipping with you.”
Today, he has taken his family and stop fellowshipping and he is now at Nsugbe which is the Goshen of our day.
Those that were with me in the Faith from the beginning, is it a lie? Did you not hear it? He said, “It is that time that those that desire eternal life will be looking for Me. They will be running helter-skelter for I will be far from many.”
Did we not see that running helter-skelter somewhere in 2019 message? Brethren, dos it contain the truth? Has it not come to pass?
He repeated it again, warning us. He said that a time is coming when many will run helter-skelter looking for me.
“He said, “Now you are not paying money to hear My voice every morning. One day, you are going to spend money, travel long distances only to hear the from the man of God, from THE SON OF MAN. If it has ever come to pass, it is now.””
True or false? Has it not come to pass? And we were living at Benjamin that time. Has it not come to pass.
Has it not come to pass now? This is the hour and the day this simple Voice of prophecy is coming to pass. Many will like to come but they will not have even transport fare. This is the hour.
Page 78 vs 19-21 THE SON OF MAN is far from many from now. Some will suffer to come, but they will not meet me. I can even be in the house and refuse to come down.
Brethren, is it coming to pass? There one I sent back to Enugu along with his entire family. Did they see me?
They wasted their money and their time. They hired a vehicle only to be disappointed. They got here by 9 o’clock in the morning from Enugu just to see My face. And they left disappointed in their hired vehicle.
“…These people that are coming from afar, their doom has come. THE WORD OF GOD HAS COME TO PASS.
They should thank their God that the distance is not too far. Wherever the carcass is, there the Eagles shall gather. If they are in the mountain, the Eagles shall go to the mountain, keep it in the valley, they will go there. Place it in the river, they will go there. God has brought it to pass, I would not go further. I will still talk more but not today.
If you are wise, it is recorded in the scriptures, learn from what happened in the past. Re-examine what happened in the past.
The book of Romans said, “All those things that happened afore-time are for our learning,” and they are documented in the scriptures as a warning unto us that we should not pattern after their bad example.
4For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. [Romans 15:4 KJV]
This is because we are serving the same God, not a different one. Sure!!!
It is not as we see human governments today. One government will come with their system and do what they want. Another will come with its own.
No! we are serving the same God. The Ancient of Days. And that is why the warning goes to us.
“Watch what is happening. Why it is necessary to warn you? The life of your soul is at stake. …”
Amen! This Message is titled, WARNING BEFORE DESTRUCTION.
We are at the end. The axe is lying beside the tree. Yes!!! Why? Any tree that does not bear the right fruit will be cut down and cast into fire. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth at this end.
10The axe is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. [Matthew 3:10 NIV Also found in Luke 3:9]
The axe is lying at the base of every tree. If you remember the illustration in the Bible. It said that the owner of the vineyard said, “Just cut this tree away and go.”
He said, “No. Let me just use this one year, dig around it and put manure. If, by next year, it does not bear the fruit, we will do that which you said and cut it away.”
So, God has out the manure. And the time has come that if you do not bear the fruit, you will be hacked down… Yes!!! …and cast into the fire.
Page 80:23-25. “Hypocrites who do not take the Word of God seriously, for reasons best known to them, run for your life so that you will not be trapped, if you have not been trapped.”
This is because some are trapped already. Some are caught in the web of unbelief already.
“If you have not been trapped, is it not said that God will count your sins up to ten times before he will punish you. It is three to some and four to some.”
“Look for it in the message titled; GOD TAKES RECORD OF INIQUITIES. God said that for the three transgressions of Edom, the fourth I will not take. For four transgressions of Egypt, the fifth I will not take. Look for it.”
All these are Gentile nations. Israel, He said, “They sinned up to ten, but when it came to Edom, he said, “For three. The fourth, I will not take.””
For Egypt, He said, “For the fifth, I will not take.” So He said, “Look for it and find out that there are numbers to each person. There are numbers to each person.
Lest you think that your own limit will be hundred. And you will not know when it will be cut short
This is why God says, “Do not compare yourself with anybody.” Yes! He that compareth himself to another is foolish and unreasonable.
“God mentioned many many communities and the number of sins committed, but to the Jews, they sinned 10 times and got trapped. Will you allow yours to reach 10 or hundred?
Later, you begin to ask, “Is my own case different? Will my own case be different? This person did this and that person did that.” Is God the person you are telling that? You are mad! You are mad! The only way to escape is to avoid evil. Avoid committing crime.
“If you have not been trapped, pray that you will not be trapped. If you have been trapped already, start praying to God for his grace.” Amen!
If you have been trapped already, you do what? Start praying to God for His grace, peradventure there may be mercy. But if He does not show mercy, will you kill Him? You perish.
You know, we do not know that we are living with the self-existing One. One that takes delight in staying alone, for that is His nature.
“If you have not been trapped, pray that you will not, if you have been trapped already, start praying to God for His grace.”
Start praying for unmerited favour if you are trapped already. So, there is nothing God has not told us. That is why He is a very loving and cheering Father.
He said, “I am the Most compassionate. I am the Most merciful.” Everything you can think about in this regard, He is the Most and that is the truth because He has done all in His effort to make sure that He will take all. But when this is not possible, He had to fall back to what is taking place now.
It is the same God that we are worshipping. And what is expected if us is what we heard. “Fear God! Fear God!” Do not play with it. Fear God, for He is a Paradox.
He is not something you can just sit down and say, “This is the way He is going to come today.” It is a lie!
Page 83 verse 27 – 28. “Fear God! God does not make a casual statement; God does not make anything casual statement. When you think it is casual, you are killing yourself. It may be “Keep watch over these things till I come back.”
With the spirit that is in you, somebody may want to go out in the morning, and I will tell him to sit down, to him he may think that I am hindering his success. He may not know that God has seen a troublesome spirit in him and revealed it to His servant to save him from that trouble.””
This is why He is the Greatest Counsellor because He knows everything. Someone that knows the end from the beginning, anything you want to take a step to do, He had already seen the ending of it.
So, is He not the Best Counsellor? This is why, If He says “Stop”, He is not hindering you. He has seen something ahead. If He says, “Do not try it”, He has seen something ahead. Yes!!!
If you say, “Daddy, this is what I want to do” and He says, “No”, leave that thing. He is not trying to hinder you. He is the Watchman that is watching to let us know what is ahead of us.
Remember that He is the Head. In the head is the eye, the ear, the mouth and the nose. He is now everything. He sees everything; hears everything. So, He now speaks to us on those things He is hearing. THE DANGERS OF OVER-FAMILIARITY IS IN MANY.
That God is simple can never overlap His Lordship over us. THE SON OF MAN is just a simple man. Look at the way He is. If you go to Him, you do see anything that makes Him great. Yes! You just see Him as a simple man, but that does not overlap His Lordship over us.
Page 83 from verse 30 – 33. “No matter the way you are seeing it, He is still our God, our Lord and our Christ. What must I do that I may do the will of God? What and what are God’s requirement from me?”
These are questions that we ought to ask ourselves.
“Who knows what will be my righteousness before God? Everybody must be very careful from now. Be careful. It is the message we received. Be careful. Stop and think.
Nobody can bribe God. God has never received bribe from anybody. He hands down judgement according to His will, and His judgements are perfect. He has never accused anybody falsely.
If it is not happening in you this morning, tomorrow, you may be the victim. That is truth! You will be shouting because God sees afar.” Yes!!!
He does not accuse anybody falsely and he does not say anything about anybody because He wants to flatter you. Is he afraid of you? What can you do to Him?
So, whatever God is saying is what He is seeing. He knows you better than you know yourself. Remember, that is why he told us that from time to time, go to the potter’s house. Are you seeing it.
When you sit down and look at the potter, you see him working at his machine. You will see the clay in his hand.
He [God] said, “As that clay is in the hand of the potter, so you are in My hand. I can do anything with you.” Are we not God’s property? We are His property. He can do anything with us.
ACTION IS FAITH EXPRESSED preached on 18th December, 2011; Page 118:64 – 65. The voice said, If I have commanded you to do anything, do it because I have commanded you. Let the guilt be on Me. Amen!!!
If you should be queried, give your reason that THE SON OF MAN instructed you. After all, your faith is hanging on no other but Me.
Without the appearance of THE SON OF MAN, you were hell bound to perish under the Mosaic law. Yes! You could not have seen the separation. The separation line was hidden from you.”
Is it not true? It was hidden. We could not have seen it without him. My emphasis is on, “if I command you to do anything, do it because I have commanded you, for the spoken word is mandatory and it is not optional.”
Whether you like it or not. It is not negotiable.
We should never be disobedient to the Heavenly Voice. We should make sure that whatever we are hearing from God, this is the period of practicing it.
What did God do when he took us home? So that you will not look at what brother is doing or what Sister is doing. You will be on your own, serving your God, acting rightly.
When I see you taking a wrong step, I say, “Do not go that way!” If you see me taking a wrong step, you say to me, “You are taking a wrong step.”
That was why the Prophet William Branham said, “Do not play with any Voice that you hear.” God could even use a heathen to you, which is likened to a mule. It is just like He used a mule to talk to Balaam and Balaam could not hear.
Somebody can tell you, “Madam, I have been watching you. This thing you are doing is not right.” He said, “Do not begin to argue. Go back to your house. Look at your life. Does it agree with what God is saying?”
If it does not agree, you will glorify God and say that He has used a mule in talking to you. Sure! It is not time for anger. It is not time for quick temper.
It is time for you to pay heed and watch, whether that which you are doing agrees with the Word of God.
In closing, let us consider the quotes from the message, TO WHAT EXTENT HAS GOD BEEN YOUR COUNSELLOR? Page 38:22.
“William Branham, the Prophet said, “When the Bride shall appear on the scene, you will know them by one thing. They will be led by the Spoken Word of God, so that if it is not God; if it is not thus saith the Lord, they do not act.” They do not act.”
You watch the people that pleased God, they were those that did nothing without first of all consulting God. They must know the mind of God first.” God remains their Consultant.
And when God speaks on a matter, it is final. No logic. No argument. No reasoning.”
All we need is the mind of God. Is there anything else that we need today? No! It is the mind of God. Whatever He tells us is for our good for he knows everything. He is our teacher and he is our best counselor.
Immediately you are making a statement, He knows where it is going to land you.
He will tell you, “That which you are saying will not land you well.” Who are you talking with? The Creator. The Almighty Father. The Seer that Seeth all things. The Fountain of Knowledge that knoweth all things.
Who will be the best for us to run to? He is the One because He knows all things and He will guide us on the rightful part. Even the Qur’an said that Allah will not misguide His people.
213Mankind were one community and God sent Prophets with glad tidings and warnings, and with them He sent the Scripture in truth to judge between people in matters wherein they differed. And only those to whom (the Scripture) was given differed concerning it after clear proofs had come unto them through hatred, one to another. Then God by His Leave guided those who believed to the truth of that wherein they differed. And God guides whom He wills to a Straight Path. [Surah 2:213]
On this note I say, my Brethren, remain blessed in the Lord as we continue to rejoice and admire our great God in this our day.
Thank you very much. We can do nothing against the truth. We are for the truth.
Shall we rise and pray. We implore our Pastor, Wisdom to close us with a short word of prayer and commit our lives into the hands of God while we sleep tonight.
Remember the Brethren everywhere, in their families both those in Nigeria and globally. Amen.
