PREACHED ON SUNDAY, 5THAPRIL 2020 AT THE BRIDAL LODGE, NSUGBE ANAMBRA STATE, NIGERIA BY EVANGELIST CHIBUIKEM ODOEMENA MODERATED BY THE SON OF MAN APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA
And Christ, as a human being, belongs to their race. Today, Christ as a human being is an Igbo man. He is your Brother. He is your townsman. The same yesterday, today and forever. [Hebrews 13:8] What do you think will hinder Him from grieving if He sees that you do not understand and follow Him? He came to save you. He came for your own good and
He has done great good to you than He has done to people out there. Will He kill Himself for you people? Do you think I take pleasure in the death of a sinner? You remain in your wicked ways, testimonies of evil following you until you die with evil, when I know that you cannot change the course of justice.
WALKING BLAMELESSLY BEFORE THE LORD VOL. 1 PREACHED 29TH JUNE, 2019; PAGE 144:45-47

THIS IS THE HOUR FOR SPIRITUAL WORSHIP
Brethren, you are blessed. SONG: [It is a great thing to serve the Lord; It is a great thing to serve the Lord; It is a great thing to serve the Lord; Walking in the light in of God.] Hallelujah!
2. We bless the name of God for a wonderful day like this. Every day, we walk in the light of God. We are so grateful to God that we are not found among the people that are in the dark.
3. The world living round about us does not know what is happening here right now. They do not even know that the Messiah of their age has been here for a very long time. If their eyes of understanding should be opened, I believe the whole world would make a U-turn right now.
4. So let me go straight to this Message here, and use it to back up the song which we have sung.
5. AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE preached on Sunday, 14th August, 2015, at the Household of God, Onitsha, by Apostle Peter Odoemena, THE SON OF MAN. Page 27 vs 18.
6. This is the prayer of a dedicated child of God, to walk closer to God. Brethren, is it not our prayer? To walk closer to God. To walk daily with God. Walking with God. Do you know why?
7. The scripture that thrills Me says, “Noah walked with God and he became perfect. Job walked with God and he became perfect. Zechariah walked with God and he became perfect. Elijah walked with God and he was translated. Enoch walked with God and he was translated.”Nobody ever walked with God and got disappointed.
8. It will never start with us. Nobody ever walked with God and got disappointed. That is why the Bible says, “Whosoever that trusts in God can never be disappointed. Neither will he be put to shame.” [Romans 10:11, Psalm 25:3].
9. If God says it, it is guaranteed, nothing can change it. “Nobody ever walked with God and got disappointed. Why not make it your prayer? That you would daily walk with God. Say ‘God grant it‘.Everybody say what? ‘GOD GRANT IT!’ Amen!
10. I will be starting with the Message, BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH, preached on 8th June, 1997, at the Household of God, Onitsha. Part 2. The only way you can secure your salvation is in Christ.
11. The only way you and I can secure our salvation is where? In Christ. Did He say in worldly things? This Message, Part 2 was preached on 16th October 1996 by Apostle Peter Odoemena, THE SON OF MAN. I will read from page 70 verse 13, before I go over to the main Message.
12. For God is always in the business of vindicating the words of his servants. God must always cause a situation, whereby the word of his servant will come to pass. Even his own prediction, God will cause his prediction to come to pass, because he is in the mind of God.”
13. Page 76 verse 32. I will read it till the end; it is a very small topic here. Brethren I will like us to consider a little topic: THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN SECURE YOUR SALVATION IS IN CHRIST. Is it in line with the Message we have heard today?
14. From where we read, the bible said that we are not children of darkness but children of light. We are walking in the light of God. In other words, we are not in the darkness, rather we are in light. Moreover, if we are in the light, we should remain awake.
15. The Message said what? Awake thou that sleepeth, and here God is telling us that if we are in the light, we should remain awake. We should not sleep like our brothers that have slept. Have you seen it? There are so many people that have slept, but God is telling you and me to remain awake.
16. They would be eating and drinking and moving about. All their discussions would be aboutcorona virus, always going about spreading what I will call verbal corona. Verbal coronary force.
17. They are reporters of corona ravaging the whole world. They can quote how many people that died in America, died in Spain. As if they are people God sent just to monitor deaths caused by corona, they are just monitoring deaths.
18. They have lost themselves; they do not know what the hour calls for. Advertising calamities that are befalling the heathens, without taking good care of themselves.
19. Can you imagine? When God has finished ravaging them, He would ravage Nigeria. All unbelievers in Nigeria, make believers, hypocrites, must get their share.
20. They are not even conscious of the statement THE SON OF MAN made, that “it is going to enter many families in this Faith. It is going to reach out to the heathens in this Faith, hypocrites.” We find it difficult to call their names. We find it difficult even to send them away or back to their places.
21. But God will afflict them with incurable diseases very soon, that will make government to come and take them away, because unbelief causes leprosy. Unbelief attracts God’s punishment.
22. Whatever disease, sickness, trouble God is using to visit the unbelievers outside, will He say no to unbelievers within? We have it in our Great Sermon,“ARE THERE UNBELIEVERS WITHIN? YES! THERE ARE TOO MANY UNBELIEVERS WITHIN, GREATLY FOUND AMONG MINISTERS AND THEIR FAMILIES. Is it not in our Message?
23. Then if God does not visit them with the same problems he is visiting the heathens with, do you not know that God will become a partial God? What makes Him a just and fair God is that He measures everyone using the same standard. Anybody whose life is contrary to the life of Christ will get it.
24. We will use you as example, pointing people, go to general hospital, go and check. They will tell them to open the gate, showing them, this is the mortuary, see people sitting down on the ground with their mats waiting to die, see whether you can recognize them.
25. Do you know how they give them food? You place the food outside at the gate and run away, they will go there and take it, go inside. When they finish eating, wash their plates, they would bring the plate out again, you will use stick to collect the plate.
26. Who will like to be subjected to that type of punishment? It is your unbelief that will take you there. It is not God’s will that you should suffer that type of punishment, terrible humiliation. Because if you go to the Quran, it says that supreme shame, supreme humiliation awaits all those powerful, obstinate and unrepentant people among us.
27. They are in our midst, they claim they believe, they shout ‘Amen’, they confirm the Message, but when they go out and meet with their folks, they will say, “they think we are with them, they think we are following them; we are fooling them. We know why we are with them, we know what we are waiting for; let us keep on fooling them, once it materializes we will find our way.”
28. But they do not know that Allah heareth them, Allah knoweth them, and Allah will visit them when they do not expect it. What will be their end? Supreme shame, supreme punishment, supreme humiliation because they are powerful, obstinate and unrepentant people, found among God’s children.
29. If you look around, you will see that all that belong to Christians in Nigeria and worldwide, they have all slept. Revival in their midst have died down. Brethren, is it not happening today? Even the Sunday Sunday worship they normally observe, many feel very reluctant now, everything dying down gradually, but this is our own time.
30. People that gather watching TV are greater than those that go to church, every street, you have where they watch football and everything, all those joints, if you put the people together, they are greater than some churches. So they take pleasure in doing evil; they take pleasure in amusement, instead of going to their churches now.
31. In short, let me tell you, you are calling them churches; every church now is an investment. Churches are now investments, comedy houses, event centers, where they watch their comedians depicting jamboree, comedians, and they would be televising them, telling stories. They are tired of opening the Bible; they now want entertainment, entertainment centers.
32. Everything is dying down gradually, but this is our own time, preaching moonlight Message because in the evening, there shall be light. Remember, the bible said that the first shall be last, and the last shall be first. Remember that the bride came at last and now, she is appearing first.
33. Yes oh! We are leading. We are vibrating, because we are well empowered. I saw one woman that we used to buy something from her shed, Brother Nwobu and I were there, and immediately I crossed the road the woman said “Daddy, what of mummy? We do not see her again.” I replied that she is fine and I asked her if she did not go to church, if she did not observe the Sabbath today.
34. She said since they said no church today, she did not go to church again and used the opportunity to come and sell her market. I said, “Okay, your God is in the church, your God is where you normally go to. But because they have closed it, you are now buying food and everything at 3-3 junction.
35. Do you not know that many are seeing the closure of their churches as an opportunity to while away, while some will use it for going to market and doing different things, I mean all these denominations. Today is Palm Sunday and they said Reverend Okeke, their Archbishop, will transmit using Radio Sapienza. Now, how many will gather around Radio Sapienza when they normally attend different churches?
36. I mean 5 O’clock in the morning they are still in their beds sleeping. They cannot get up by that time anymore because they no longer go to church. How will they now perform all those rituals they used to perform, burning the palm frond and all those things or even Holy Communion? Or maybe they will tell them to buy bread and use any bread to do it anyhow. Can you now see? To show you it is useless nonsense. Mechanical worship, but real spiritual worship does not require all these things.
37. THIS IS THE END OF ALL MECHANICAL WORSHIP; THIS IS THE HOUR FOR SPIRITUAL WORSHIP. MECHANICAL WORSHIP IS DONE IN THE CONGREGATION; SPIRITUAL WORSHIP IS IN THE HOME.
38. Remember that the Bride came at last and now, she is appearing first. Why? She appeared at a time when others have slumped down. She appeared at a time when others, after waiting for Christ for many years, they fainted. Thus, when they said, “let us rest a little,” that was the time our own started.
39. Now that you can see that they have slept, they have gone back to their vomit, there is no righteousness in them again. Talk of Christ catching away the Saints, it has eluded them completely.
40. It is no longer in their program.The way they are behaving, the way they are acting will tell you that these people are merely playing religion.
41. The consciousness is no longer there. The consciousness of the catching away of the saints is only made visible among us because where Christ is, there the revival is. And wherever the carcass is, there the eagles shall gather.
SO, IF YOU ARE WISE AND UNDERSTANDING, BEGIN NOW TO MAKE YOUR CHOICE BETWEEN THE GOOD AND THE BAD. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE END OF YOUR LIFE COUNTS MORE THAN THE BEGINNING OF YOUR LIFE. THE BEGINNING OF YOUR LIFE DOES NOT DETERMINE YOUR DESTINY BUT THE END, FOR NO MAN IS CROWNED UNTIL HE GETS TO THE END. MISTAKES CAN BE MADE ALONG THE WAY. IF YOU CAN CORRECT THEM BEFORE YOU GET TO THE END, GLORY BE TO GOD.
WALKING BLAMELESSLY BEFORE GOD VOL.1PRAECHED 29TH JUNE, 2019; 154:49-51

BE VIGILANT IN THE SPIRIT [1]
The Bible is saying that we should not be like these people that have slept, both spiritually and physically. We should remain awake for we are not children of darkness, rather we are children of the light.Let us remain awake and sober.
2. The Bible says, “let us remain alert.” To be spiritually alert, be conscious of your environment for that is the only way you can preserve your salvation in Christ.”Be spiritually alert, be conscious of your environment and be conscious of yourself,for that is the only way we can preserve our salvation in Christ.
3. Have we seen the way we should preserve our salvation in Christ? God has given you and me salvation; it is now our duty to preserve it. If we do not preserve it, it will slip away from our hands and we will start shouting, “had I known” at the end.
4. When you are careless, playing with your life, do not be careless, be sober in everything. Do not be somebody that will sleep in the spirit, be awake.”
5. Do not be somebody that will sleep in the spirit. How do you sleep in the spirit? When your prayer life has become thrash, it has become thrash. You will be praying and then you sleep off. From praying, you start sleeping, is that a prayer? It is not prayer; from there you are already sleeping in the spirit.
6. Bishop Okoh said that the present group of ministers are the people that will take us to the Promised Land. That for the old timers they have become weak when the coach is still very much vibrant.
7. The coach is desirous of capturing the trophy. He knows those players that are weak, he will remove them and recruit fresh ministers, fresh players with new blood, new zeal and these are the ones that will give him the trophy.
8. He said, “some old names are being praised psychologically,” he said when you mention the name, some of the players who do not know them but know their name, will be trembling.
9. For example, when you hear Maradona, people will be trembling because of the name, Maradona. They do not know that Maradona is just a player.
10. They hear that Ronaldo will be in the pitch or that Ronaldo is playing, they will be trembling, they do not know that Ronaldo is a name, he is just a player. When they hear about Steven Keshi, they think Keshi is still there. They do not know that Keshi is up, up. And the other one, the transporter from Jos. He said, “Their days are over.”
11. They are olden names; they do not terrorize players again. You hear of them, they are old names that featured. Their names ring bell but they are no longer playing. But the new players right now have outsmarted them and these are the ones that will lift the trophy.
12. So, you old ministers, stay where you are, be in the bench, be in the bench. And I believe it, I say and I believe it. For THE SON OF MAN knows what He is doing. He has injected new blood for the battle is about to be decided and these old soldiers are weak, they cannot give us the victory.
13. That is why He said the youths are now in control, who are now the pillars, solid pillars. Not people like Elijoe who has lost all his strength, all he knows is eating as if he does not know what he is doing, doing as if he has all the time in the world.
14. What is happening? Only the coach and the players know what is happening. But to all those people, they are now tired, they only know how to drink now. Brethren, the battle is now raging. They suffer more now than before. They do what? Suffer more now than before. Only a few of the end timers can withstand the battle.
15. Do not be somebody that will sleep in the spirit, be awake. Once you sleep in the spirit, watch. The devil will now hold you captive because the devil will go out and be looking at every child of God.
16. Anyone he sees that he is no longer filled with the spirit of God, the devil will carry his demons, “let us, let us go there” and by and by the devil will win that battle. That is why we should always be awake spiritually.
17. “Do not be somebody that will sleep in the spirit, be awake. When you are coming to church, let it be your whole self that is coming to church. When you are lifting yourself to God, let it be your whole self, not partially.”
18. Do not say “God leave this part, do not touch it, it is my no go area.” God says, “You surrender all to God.” Become the clay in the hands of the Potter. That was the Message we heard last week. See God confirming it here in the Messageof October 1996.
19. When you are lifting yourself to God, let it be your whole self. You should not be found wanting in anything at all.” Right now, we should not be found wanting in any area at all.
20. “You should not be founding wanting in anything at all. Be alert, be sober, be awake. Wake up for the night is far spent. Our salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed.
21. Watch, the Bride is coming last and on that day, the Bride will appear first. Why? We came almost at the end of the period. We did not begin at the beginning of the Laodicean age.
22. We came almost at the end, when others are weary, when others are discouraged. And now, God has met us and revived us. The zeal that is in us is enough to carry us through.” Why not shout hallelujah? The zeal that is in you and I is able to carry us through.
23. Song: My God is able, He is able, I know He is able, I know my God is able to carry us through.
24. God is able to see us through.“The zeal that is in us is enough to carry us through. Hence, the only way you can remain in the Body alive and preserve your position is to be sober and alert. Be sober and alert.
25. Be wide awake. Do not be careless, be serious in all things from now.” God said we should not be careless. We should be serious in all things from now. Look at the year, 1996. This Message is standing the test of time right now.
26. “1st Peter 5: 7-8. Casting all your care upon Him for He careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant for your adversary, the devil as a roaring lion walketh about, seeking whom to devour.
27. Whatever that is your problem, your trouble, cast them to the Lord once and for all. Anyone He did not solve, know that He does not want to solve it. God can solve every of your problem, but any one that he knows that will take you away from the faith, He will not solve it. That is why Chika is not yet a millionaire.
28. “God can solve every of your problem but any one that He knows that will take you away from the faith, He will not solve it for some problems could be placed there forever to be a check.” Some problems could be placed there forever to be a check.
29. I still remember the Voice of THE SON OF MAN on one fellowship day, I was about 12 or 13 years, that there are some people in this fellowship God will never bless with money.
30. The first person He mentioned was Brother OnyemaNjom and till he died, God never blessed him with money. God never blessed him. He remained poor.
31. God repeated it in a Message before he died, that there are some people He will not bless with money so that they cannot use it to blaspheme God and oppress people.
32. “I am telling you that there are some things you may be praying to God to do for you and He will reject it for God will only solve the problems that will help you to serve Him.” God does not answer every type of prayer.
33. “But any one that will lead you out of the faith, God will not solve that one for you. If God sees that it is sickness that He can use to cause you to worship Him, pray till tomorrow, He will not heal that sickness.
34. He will allow it to be there so that you can use it to hold you. For that reason, if God sees that if He gives you sound health and you become a hustler, you will not worship Him again, He will deny it from you.
35. Job said that at times, God uses sickness to bring man to obedience. He can use suffering to bring a man into obedience. Jesus learnt obedience through the things He suffered.
36. There was a Message I was considering in school where God was talking about two things which He can use to hold a man to bring him to obedience.
37. The first thing He said is that He will subject that man to poverty. If God wants to make you to obey Him, He might subject you to poverty so that you can obey Him.
38. “He can use suffering to bring a man to obedience. Thus, Jesus learnt obedience from the things He suffered. God said that you must cast all your troubles upon Him. Yes, be well balanced. Be balanced in the church, in the faith. Be balanced in the spirit, in the mind, be well balanced. In the spirit, in the mind, in the faith, be well balanced.
39. Gather yourselves together, gather yourselves together. Be balanced.
40. That is the only way you can retain your position in Christ, the only way you can uphold your salvation. You must align yourself to be fully balanced.”
41. You must align yourself to be fully balanced. That is bringing your thoughts, imagination, everything in you, to be in agreement with the revealed Word, to be in agreement with God’s perfect will.
42. Do not ever begin to run contrary, it brings you into opposition with God. When a man is opposed to God, what results in the end? Destruction.
43. “You must allow yourself to be fully balanced, fully exercised in the faith. In every way, be an all-round believer.” In every way, be an all-round believer, without questioning and then be well balanced. “You had the victory but the devil was not destroyed.” Have you heard it? We had the victory but the devil was not destroyed.
44. “It was the devil in the people that arrested Jesus Christ. The same way, it was the devil in people that crucified Jesus Christ. Be vigilant for he who is surrounded by enemies keeps watch over his life. Be vigilant in the spirit, do not give any space.”
45. God said we should not give any space. “WHAT THE RAT EATS IS WHAT WILL BE USED TO TRAP IT,”MEANING THAT, “ONE IS ENSNARED BY HIS OR HER OWN HEART’S DESIRES;” – an eternal quote.
46. It happens to me, there are some things I would want to do, but I will remember that quote -What the rat eats is what will be used to trap it, I will turn back, because I know it is what I usually desire. It might be a trap, and I will draw back. Yes. It is wisdom.
Remember that God said, “Your title as ‘beloved’ will never save you until you remain the beloved till the end. If at any time you stray away from where God has placed you, God will never save you. For God will forever honour His Word! He will save us in everything but He will never save us in unbelief. Unbelief is a spirit that crops up from the heart. Thus, let not the heart of unbelief ever be found in any of us, lest God will drop us. Remember the Voice said that GOD WILL NOT DESTROY US, BUT WE WILL DESTROY OURSELVES WITH OUR OWN HANDS. HE SAID THAT HE HAS VOWED TO TAKE US HOME, WE SHALL ALL CROSS THE GATE AS WE REMAIN FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD.
HOW READY ARE YOU FOR YOUR FLIGHT? PREACHED 17TH JULY, 2011; PAGE 46:38-39

BE VIGILANT IN THE SPIRIT [2]
We vigilant in the spirit, do not give any space. That loophole, that is where he will like to capitalize and wreak havoc.
2. Whenever you are conscious, any little blot of sin, you will notice it immediately and it will put you into desperation. You will never rest until you make sure it is blotted out. Then you will get your freedom again and your joy will come back.
3. I rewind. Be vigilant in the spirit, do not give any space. That loophole, that is where he will like to capitalize and wreak havoc.
4. Whenever you are conscious, any little blot of sin, you will notice it immediately… That is because you are conscious, but if you are not conscious, you will be welcoming it. When you get yourself, you have walked a million miles away from God.
5. Any little blot of sin, you will notice it immediately and it will put you into desperation. You will never rest until you make sure it is blotted out. Then you will get your freedom again and your joy will come back. For that is the only way you can retain your position in Christ.
6. That is the only way you and I can retain our position in Christ. Besides, I have told you times without number that any little sin ignored will lead you to more sin.” Any little sin ignored will lead you to more sin.
7. If a vehicle develops a fault and you ignore it, it will develop more faults. But when you check that fault, you have stopped further faults from developing. Is it a lie? So it is with human life.
8. You ignore one sin and say it is a light thing, it does not matter, from “it does not matter,” you are gone. You will be overcome by that sin and the outcome is death.
9. “It does not matter,” you will soon know that it matters; or you decide to postpone it till further notice. You can postpone anything, but not postponing sin, getting rid of that trace of evil from your heart. Do you tell death when to strike?
10. Besides, I have told you times without number that any little sin ignored will lead you to more sin. You cannot overcome any sin until you hate that sin. No child of God will commit sin until he forgets what he has received. No child of God commits sin until he forgets what he has received.
11. Once you forget that you are a child of God, sin will come.” When you forget that you are a child of God, sin will come. You begin to walk contrary.
12. When you forget that you are a child of God, sin will come. I am telling you the truth. There is no child of God that stays in the spirit, remembering who he is that puts hand into sin. Yes. You do not have a peculiar problem, it is common among all believers.
13. Thus, be patient, be sober, be vigilant and then you have your victory. God said, be patient, be sober, be vigilant and then you have your victory. Vigilant means, be watchful, be conscious.
14. Can a rat eat the food whose owner is awake? Never. You must first of all sleep, before rat can now eat your food. Because once it sees you are awake, it will go back. Once it peeps and sees that you are still awake, it goes back.
15. However, once it sees that you have slept, it will laugh.It may even bite your leg. The rat does not bite the leg of one that is awake; it is one that is sleeping that a rat can bite his leg.
16. The same way the devil comes in to check a child of God whose life is spiritually strong.
17. He will come and peep to see if he is still strong. If yes, he will go back and stay by the corner and keep watching you. That same way he will keep on coming from time to time. Till when he notices that you have backslidden in the heart, he will now strike.
18. When you wake up, it will be as if you fought someone, you will be filled with rage, know that you had a visitation. You had a visitation, you will not know whether to greet “good morning” or “good afternoon” or to close your mouth.
19. You had a visitation, it will reflect in everything you are doing . When you are given food, you will keep it aside; you will not even know whether you took your bath or not.
20. You have been captured, because Jesus made the thing clear. A farmer he used as an example sowed a good seed and went away. And then in the night, the enemy came and sowed a bad seed. In the morning, the servants went to the field only thing discover too many thistles and thorns growing in the field.
21. They went back to the master, “look at what we witnessed in the farm this morning, who must have sown these seeds?” He said, “I assure you, it was when you went to bed and slept that theenemy came and visited the field and sowed the bad seeds. [Matthew 13: 24-28].
22. That is why, when you wake up, your life is no longer the same. Your character is no longer the same. The enemy is at work. That is why we have one common enemy, one common enemy.
23. When you see one that is overtaken by that fault, do not allow him to breathe, fight it out of him, for if you do not get rid of it from that person, he will infest the whole family. There will be an overspreading of the evil.
24. Galatians 6:1. Dear brothers, if a Christian is overcome by some sin, you, who are godly should gently and humbly help him back unto the right track (LB).
25. That is if the person wants to be helped, for there are some that do not want to be helped. Whoever that resists and resents reproof, does he want to be helped? Whoever that wants to be helped must accept reproof, he must accept corrections, it then means he will come out.
26. I repeat. Dear brothers, if a Christian is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help him back onto the right path, remembering that next time, it might be one of you who is in the wrong (LB).
27. If you do not get rid of sin from your life, you become a “corona carrier” in the family. Sin is coronavirus. I have told you that sin is virus, once it enters; it is like virus that entered your computer system, what will it do?
28. It will wipe off every good information. Is it not true? You see we why sin is virus. So when the devil attacks you, he injects virus into your systemwhich will erase completely your knowledge of good, all your virtues receiving, gone.
29. If there be anything good in your life, gone. Things you knew how to do before, you will not know how to do them again. Your life will be full of mistakes and errors.
30. You might be wondering what is happening. Virus has attacked you. Is it not true? That is why I believe that corona is a virus. When it attacks you, the person will not know who he is again.
31. But you allowed it in before it begins to come up. If you are on the alert taking necessary precautions, you can ward it off. Is it not true?
32. You will not be mingling with somebody who is carrying it, because evil communication will help you to contact it. True or false? Evil communication spoils good character.
33. You may not have contact with anybody and develop corona. You may not show any symptoms of corona and yet you have it. That goes to show that you contacted it when you were sleeping. Is it not true?
34. You were asleep, you woke up with corona virus because your mind went off, your mind went outside yourself and brought it in. People stay in their bed and plot evil, come out in the day and start practicing evil because they plotted it while they were in the bed.
35. Some are experts in putting their dreams into action. They dream dreams that are against the Word of God, against the truth because that dream, they delight in it.
36. THE DREAM IS IN LINE WITH WHAT THEY HAD PLANNED TO DO, THEY COME OUT IN THE DAY INSTEAD OF PRAYING AGAINST IT, THEY WILL PRACTISE IT. THEY SAW IT IN THE DREAM, IT FULFILLED IN THE DAY BECAUSE THEY TOOK DELIGHT IN IT, THEY DID NOT PRAY AGAINST IT.
37. WHEN A CHILD OF GOD SEES HIMSELF IN A DREAM DOING WHAT HE IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DOING, HE KNEELS DOWN AND PRAYS AGAINST IT. FOR IT IS A SIGN THAT THE DEVIL HAS VISITED HIM USING DREAMS. GOD VISITS US USING DREAMS; THE DEVIL ALSO VISITS US USING DREAMS.
38. If you are a child of God and such dreams come, instead of praying against it, you rejoice; in the day, you must fulfill that dream. You must fulfill all. I am telling you the truth.
39. So watch over yourself all round, all round. Even when you go to bed, pray before you go to bed, that God will protect you from the devil’s anointing. That God will protect you from the devil presenting his own dreams to you about life, about everything.
40. Paying heed to dreams from the devil more than dreams from God simply because the devil will use the dream to make sin very light and they will start thinking about it so that when they come out in the morning, they will be happy that the dream will materialize.
41. “What am I saying? You can carry your Bible and sleep and the devil knows. You can sit down in the church, the Bible is lamp, you can place the lamp and then sleep. Secure yourself in Christ by being alive in the spirit. 1st Peter 4: 7. But the end of all things is at hand.”
42. One that is pursuing something that is important to him, does he feel sleepy? Since morning that we have been here, if what we are doing is not important to us, we would have dismissed a long time ago.
43. But we want to get more of it, we want to fill ourselves because we can only be strong in the Lord when we fill ourselves with the Word of the Lord, allowing the Word of God to saturate our heart, penetrate our sinuses, our arteries and veins so that there will not be room for us to meditate on anything outside the Word of God, then we will renew the strength we have.
44. 1st Peter 4:7. But the end of all things is at hand. Be ye therefore sober and watch unto prayer. But the end of all things have come now, keep sound mind. Let prayer be your habitual character. Practice it.”
45. This is the end of this Message. There is a quote that went forth today. It said, “IT WILL BE A DISSERVICE TO US IF WE SHOULD ALLOW SPIRITUAL WEAKNESS TO SET IN INTO OUR LIVES.”
When you are found in Him, obeying His doctrines, you have been made acceptably in His beloved. But if you are not found in Him, obeying His message, you are operating outside. At any point in time, you are either inside or outside. James chapter 1 verses 22 through 25. “And remember, it is a message to obey, not just to listen to…”The message of Christ is meant for us to obey and not to listen to. “And remember it is a message to obey, not just to listen to. So, don’t fool yourselves…” Therefore, do not deceive yourselves into making us to believe that you are one of us because you are merely sitting down in this fellowship hearing His word. For God never said that hearers of the truth are saved, rather doers of the truth.

THE HOUR WE ARE LIVING IN CALLS FOR SELF-CHALLENGE
AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE, page 35, verses 10 through 14.
2. I want you to know this fact. If you are numbered among those that are still fumbling, those that are still limping between two opinions, these are the hypocrites who will hear the Word, say Amen to the Word, go out and do otherwise.
3. I repeat. I want you to know this fact. If you are numbered among those that are still fumbling, those that are still limping between two opinions, these are the hypocrites who will hear the Word, say Amen to the Word, go out and do otherwise.
4. Remember, you are doing yourself more harm than good. Are you doing it to God? No. You are doing it to yourself, at the end, if you do not make paradise, is it God that is lost? No, it is you that will be in perpetual suffering.
5. Remember, you are doing yourself more harm than good. You will get everything you want from here but eternal life.
6. No man is exempted as far as this matter is concerned, and you can never give reasons why you are not benefiting from what God has been giving out severally to everybody but you blatantly and bluntly hardened your heart against the truth. You did what? You blatantly and bluntly hardened your heart against the truth.
7. This is why the hour we are living in calls for self-challenge. It calls for self-challenge. You challenge yourself, I challenge myself.
8. It is my prayer every day once I wake up in the morning, “God, allow me to do your will. Allow my activities this day to be in conformity to your will.” That is my prayer; I put it in my prayer every morning.
9. This is why the hour we are living in calls for self-challenge. Challenge yourself by attempting that which you think is impossible in your eyes.
10. When was this Message – AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE preached? It was preached on Sunday, 14th August, 2016 at the Household of God, Onitsha.
11. This is why the hour we are living in calls for self-challenge. Challenge yourself by attempting that which you think is impossible in your eyes. You see obedience to God as something hard? Challenge yourself.
12. If somebody can do it, you can also do it. Let somebody be in your picture. If this person could obey, what excuse do I have then?
13. Who is that person? Christ, the author and finisher of your faith. He said “look up to Him.”
14. Challenge yourself by doing that which you think is impossible in your eyes, begin now to attack your weak points. Begin now to do what? Attack your weak points, I attack my weak points.
15. All those gray areas which you have noticed the devil is operating in you.
16. All those gray areas – strong force, the devil’s strong hold in your life, in my life; challenge yourself, begin now to attack them.
17. All those gray areas which you have noticed the devil is operating in you, begin now to challenge yourself seriously. Seriously, not deceitfully; seriously.
18. Begin now to resist, even with your blood. Place your life on the line provided God will be pleased.
19. That is scripture. Place your life on the line against evil provided God will be pleased. Instead of me to try it, let me die.
20. I repeat. All those gray areas which you have noticed the devil is operating in you, begin now to challenge yourself seriously. Begin now to resist, even with your blood. Place your life on the line provided God will be pleased. That is all.
21. Verse 19. The time when we made friendship with the Word is over. Remember, where we are does not recognize your wife, your husband and your children. It recognizes only but you and I alone.
22. I rewind. The time when we made friendship with the Word is over. Remember, where we are does not recognize your wife, your husband and your children. It recognizes only but you and I. I am the one, you are the one.
23. Even the child in the womb is not covered. Do not fail to understand that when God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, there might be pregnant women in the city. Not even one was spared because she was pregnant.
24. When God destroyed the age of Noah, you want to tell me that throughout the whole world, there were no pregnant women? There were no infants at all?
25. God said in the scriptures that the cry of the infants shall be great in the midst of the destructive fire that will come from the presence of the Almighty. Go to the Book of Revelations and read it.”
26. And I will tell you what took place that time. God saved the mother, the mother saved the child in the womb. All the children that were in the womb will only get their salvation through their mothers.
27. As long as they are still unborn, God will save their mothers, their mothers will save them. So the immunity of the child is in the mother. The immunity of the mother is in Christ.
28. If the mother is saved by Christ, the child is saved by the mother. Did you get the Message? I have a Message, WHOSE IMMUNITY DO YOU HAVE?
29. Hear it very well, all that believed in Noah were saved by Noah. Noah was saved by God. Do you believe it? All the wives of the sons of Noah, granted that there were some that were pregnant; as long as they had believed the Message of Noah, entered the ark. They were saved by Noah, Noah was saved by God. Good.
30. So, a pregnant woman should not panic if she is in Christ. Whatever that is in her womb is also in Christ. So the child will be saved through the mother, the mother will be saved by Christ. Did you get the Message?
31. God said in the scriptures that the cry of the infants shall be great in the midst of the destructive fire that will come from the presence of the Almighty God. Go to the Book of Revelation and read it.
32. That you are one day old does not exempt you because any child that is born in a family of unrepentant souls is counted guilty. Children born to heathens are heathens. Is it not scriptural? Even in the New Testament.
33. BRETHREN HAVE WE SEEN WHAT THIS HOUR CALLS FOR? SELF-CHALLENGE. JUDGE YOURSELF, SCRUTINIZE YOURSELF. THE SAME WAY YOU CHALLENGE YOURSELF TO DO SOMETHING, A TASK WHICH YOU WANT TO ACCOMPLISH IN LIFE, CHALLENGE YOURSELF TO PLEASE GOD IN A PARTICULAR DAY.
34. THAT STRONG HOLD IN YOUR LIFE, CHALLENGE YOURSELF, PUT YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE SAYING “COME WHAT MAY, I WILL NEVER BE A PREY IN THE HANDS OF THE DEVIL”. SOMEONE CAN MAKE THAT PRAYER AND ABIDE BY IT AND GOD WILL STAMP IT.
35. THAT IS THE TYPE OF PRAYER GOD DELIGHTS IN, THAT THE CHILDREN OF GOD BE FREE FROM EVIL. THAT IS ALL.
36. HEAR MY VOICE O HEAVEN, HEAR MY VOICE O EARTH, VOLUME 3;WARNINGS AND REVELATIONS, preached on 14th June, 2019 at the Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe. Son of Man’s family altar. It was preached in this house. Page 56, verse 5.
37. Those that commit it, those that commit this sin because they take pleasure in it, in the world, will fall under God’s great curse. The great curse will follow the person.” I want to strike something here.
38. TO THAT INDIVIDUAL WHO IS BEING WARNED AND HE HARDENS HIS HEART, WHAT WILL GOD DO TO HIM? HE WILL BE PLACED UNDER THE GREAT CURSE OF GOD. BE VERY CAREFUL THAT YOU DO NOT PROVOKE ME TO A POINT WHERE I WILL PLACE A CURSE ON YOU.
39. This is a statement from God Almighty Himself. That we should be very careful that we do not come to a point where God will place a curse on us.
40. Anybody that is introducing sin in the house of a man of God is taking the greatest risk for he does not know the day he will do the one he will do, in anger, the man of God who represents God will place a perpetual curse on him.
41. Page 66, verse 37-42. Whatever you are doing, it may be light in your eyes but there is no sin, no violence that is light in the eyes of God. Sin can never be light in the eyes of God.
42. William Branham the Prophet said that the moment one strays away from Christ, sin becomes a light thing in his eyes.
43. We read it today from the Holy Quran that the devil is going to make sin seeming in the eyes of men.
44. And now the Prophet William Branham confirmed it by saying that the moment one strays away from Christ, sin becomes a light thing. Disobedience to God’s word, instructions becomes very light in his eyes.
45. He begins to categorize the thing into big sins and small sins. Instead of repenting, he will ask, “Is it because of this little thing that you are making all these noise for? Just this little thing.” Sin is now little.
46. Then how many sins did Adam and Eve commit that made God sack then from the Garden of Eden? Was it more than enough? Was it two? It was disobedience to just one single instruction.
47. How many did Moses do for which cause God smashed him to death? Disobedience to a single instruction. How many did Saul do that made God kill him; sack him from the throne? Disobedience to a single instruction. Check all of them along the line.”
48. The young prophet, the young prophet from Judah who prophesied and God confirmed it; one single disobedience and the lion ate him.[1 Kings 13: 1-26].
49. I was talking to brethren in Umudike, telling them that the level of grace God gives to you might be different from the one God gives to me. There is something you will commit, God will not say anything. You keep on going but once I try it, God will clamp down on me.
50. I will just stop there instantly because I know more than the person. There is something somebody else will commit, it will be treated as a very light case. But when it gets to your turn, you will see that God is very hot, very hot.
51. Today, sin is now a light thing. Disobedience to instruction; to the word of God, to the truth is very light to them that are bound to perish.
52. The Bible said that the word of God sounds foolish to him that is on his way to destruction [1 Corinthians 1: 18]. Anyone that God has vowed that he must perish can never take the Word of God serious.
53. Disobedience to instruction; to the word of God, to the truth is very light to them that are bound to perish. Sin becomes a pleasurable thing; a pleasurable ride.
54. No matter how God visited it, it does not concern them. Let God continue to talk, that one concerns Him. We will continue to do what we want. It is revealed to God in Heaven. Let nobody deceive you. It is a personal matter.
55. Let nobody deceive you, this is a personal matter. Only you and you alone and God and the devil know what is going on in your heart. You, God and the devil. These three human beings, you cannot deceive them.
56. You cannot deceive the devil. If you are playing hypocrisy, the devil knows. God knows. You, yourself also know. Nobody might know what is going on but deep down in you, you know what is going on.
57. CONVICTED BY THEIR CONSCIENCES, preached 24th March, 2019 at the Household of God, Onitsha. Page 21, verse 62-63.
58. If you have made up your mind not to believe anything or practice whatever God says, why coming here every day? You are heaping condemnation on yourself.
59. Why hearing the word of God? The person is a mocker.
60. There is no peace for the wicked. A wicked man or woman is one that hates the word of God. He is one that hates the word of God, the word of God will be making him very uncomfortable.
61. When you hear and refuse to practice it, is it not iniquity? Yet you want God to bless you, you want to be peaceful.
62. Will such a thing come to that person’s door? How can the person enjoy peace from God when he is living in iniquity? Never, never.
63. Page 44, verse 1. Chapter 3: Who is in control of your life? A pertinent question. You that call yourselves children of God, who is in control of your lives? Who is in control of my own life?
64. Verse 1: When you refuse to accept the word of God, are you a friend of God or an enemy of God? You have made yourself an enemy of God when you refuse to obey Him.
65. We have made ourselves perpetual enemies of God if we refuse to obey Him. To practice His word and to do everything according to His Message; when you refuse, you become God’s greatest enemy.
66. Page 49, verse 22. You do not own your life. Underline that one in your heart very well. The God living in our midst owns your life and owns my life. Have we seen who owns our lives? The God living in our midst, revealed in our midst is the person that owns our lives.
67. The God living in our midst owns your life and owns my life. The earlier you allow Him to direct your life and control your life, the better for you.
68. The earlier we allow Him to direct our lives and control our lives, the better for us, if we want to live further.
69. The earlier we assume the position of clay in the hand of God so that God will be our Potter, the better for us. But as long as we are trying every day to have our way, we can never please God. We can never please God by having our way. “God, leave us let us do our will,” can this type of person ever please God in this life?
Re-examine yourself in the light of the truth you have received.re-examine yourself! The time when we used to say, “re-examine the faith” is past. Anybody re-examining this faith is an unbeliever. How can you re-examine the confirmed faith, to say whether this faith is true or false? That shows that that fellow has doubt. I am not in doubt as to whether this faith is true or false. Thus, I am no longer re-examining this faith. This faith is true. This faith has been confirmed by the almighty God to be the only living and true faith from the only living and true God. (Selah). It is now left for me to check and know whether I am in it or not. To check whether I just came in and sat down, assuming that I am going to church: “I am going to church with my mother. I am going to church with my father.” Nominal worship. Everything nominal

EVALUATE, SCRUTINIZE AND INVESTIGATE YOURSELF
AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE, page 48, verse 40.
2. Where you are and where we are now calls for real spiritual evaluation, where we are now calls for real spiritual evaluation, spiritual scrutiny, spiritual investigation. Amen. Spiritual scrutiny and spiritual investigation.
3. We have a Message; THE INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT OF GOD. Have you first of all investigated yourself to know whether you will stand righteously in the sight of God if the judgment of God comes upon you?
4. Where we are now calls for spiritual evaluation, spiritual scrutiny, spiritual investigation. Do not evaluate your brother or sister.
5. What if the person is sleeping in the spirit, can the person scrutinize himself? How can the person even investigate himself when he is sleeping in the spirit?
6. Do not evaluate your brother or sister, do not scrutinize him, do not investigate him, do all these things to yourself. God said what? Do all these things to yourself.
7. If you are a man, do it to yourself first, your family second, otherwise you may raise a wasted generation. You may waste your own labour here jumping up and down. I will dance with you, and at the end of the day, you are empty handed.
8. You have no child except in Christ. You have no wife or husband or anything except in Christ. Is that not true?
9. The days are gone when somebody will be guessing when you ask the person; “my friend are you a candidate for this immortality? Are you sure you are going to paradise?” And the person will reply, “By His Grace, I think.” You are not sure.
10. If you are sure, you will say just like THE SON OF MAN use to say, “without me, that place does not exist.” Why not stand and say that without me paradise does not exist?
11. Page 59, verse 15. Strive to fulfill your calling in Christ and complete it with joy, not with sorrows. If you do not see it from this angle, definitely you are going to be a non-performer.
12. Even if you are not a minister, you can be a brother in this Faith and still you are a non-performer. Why are you a non-performer? 1. You do not study. 2. You do not pray. 3. You are sleeping spiritually. These are the three things that will make you to become a non-performer.
13. Before you know it, your position will be declared vacant. You may be benched and you remain in that bench till eternity as a failed servant. A failed servant. A failed labourer. Let it never be so with us in this family. Amen.
14. HEAR MY VOICE O HEAVEN, HEAR MY VOICE O EARTH; Volume 3, page 74:12. It is not the way men see you that counts, but what God is saying about you. What is the record God is keeping for you? Have you asked yourself this thing? What is the record God is keeping for you and me?
15. Page 73, verse 8. If a man can have a record, do you think God cannot have a greater record than the one human beings are keeping? God records every evil we are doing daily, daily.
16. God records every evil which you are committing, even the thoughts of your heart, daily. Every sin is being recorded in heaven in the presence of the Most High God.
17. Anyone who feels sin is good should go ahead, whether you do it to Me or to yourself, whether you do it in the kitchen, or in the bedroom, you are the beneficiary of it. Wherever you are, did you think it up in your heart or you did it by way of conduct, the Almighty God is taking record of all.
18. You may cheat MAN, but have you cheated God? From now on, you know that all the violence you committed is recorded everyday till the day of your judgement.
19. From now on, 5682 years from now, you should know every sin I am committing here are all recorded against me and will remain recording until the day of my judgment so that you don’t begin to think you can run away from it. You cannot run away from the wrath of God. Who has ever succeeded?
20. When you are covering up your sins thinking that others will not know, presenting yourself as a righteous fellow in the eyes of men, God sees you. It is not the way men see you that counts but what God is saying about you.
21. What is the record God is keeping for you? That is why anyone that is sensible should make a U-turn per adventure our sinful past can be erased.
22. That is why anyone that is sensible should make a U-turn, match brake and do what? Somersault. That was the Message we heard on Friday. If you are sensible, do what? Make a U-turn per adventure our sinful past can be erased.
23. But instead of man thinking of how to amend his ways he is piling up more and more, piling iniquities upon iniquities to show you that man has concluded to perish.
24. Since you have concluded that you will not obey, that you will perish despite how the word of truth has been revealed to you, even giving you THE SON OF MAN as a free gift.
25. Sacrificing His life after leaving His position in heaven, coming to you saying, ‘Look at Me; I have returned to the earth; I live forever,’ you became a privileged fellow who received the second return of the Messiah, saw all the signs and vindications.
26. You were the reason why I married to show you how a husband is supposed to live with the wife. You were the reason why I gave birth to children so as to show you how to train children. If your marital relation will be of benefit to you I told all of you to look unto Me; if you know the way I relate with My wife and children do same.
27. It behooves me to teach my wife: ‘If you want us to live together peacefully forever this is the way you should live your life because you have never gone this way before.
28. If you listen to Me, you will live with Me eternally. If you refuse to listen to Me because you feel you know more than I, definitely we are parting. Definitely we are parting.
29. AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE, page 67 verse 33-37.
30. You must first of all draw back in your heart before you stop coming to fellowship. You must first of all draw back in your heart before you stop coming to fellowship. That is why the Lord said Woe to the backslidden in the heart. Woe unto the backslidden in the heart.
31. Before ever your feet will be cold, before your feet get cold, cold approach to this Faith, your heart must have been drawn away from this truth.
32. Is it true? Before you ever develop cold feet, cold approach to this Faith, to the doctrines of God, to the teachings of God. You will now be drawing back, whenever it come to the things of God you will become tired. If they say anything pertaining to God, you become tired. You have backslidden in the heart.
33. Your heart must have been drawn away from the truth. You must have backslidden in the heart, and then your physical structure will be coming to fellowship.
34. What makes you what you are is no longer in the fellowship. It is better I stay in my house and be united with Christ spiritually and away from here physically, than to be here bodily present and spiritually absent.
35. Have you seen why God sent us back to our homes? It is better we stay in our homes and be united with Christ spiritually than to be in GTC fellowship hall and be shouting “halleluiah. Amen.”
36. At the end of the day, there will be no positive change in our lives, when we go home the same problem is still there. It is better we stay in our homes and be united with Christ spiritually.
37. CONVICTED BY THEIR CONSCIENCES, page 75, verse 19. If your conscience does not prick you after hearing the truth, two things are there, either you are justified or your conscience is dead.
38. I repeat. If your conscience does not prick you after hearing the truth, two things are there, either you are justified or your conscience is dead, seared with a hot iron.
39. It has been seared with a hot iron. That is unrepentant, obstinate transgressors.
40. From the scripture we read on Friday, it said those that tremble at the Word of God, when the word of God goes forth, the individual will feel the impact.
41. You sorrow for the sin which you have committed and vow to repent, but if it is not so in your life, two things are there, it is either you are justified or your conscience is dead, seared with a hot iron.
42. Page 78, verse 28-29. Do you not know the truth about your life? You are not in fear. If you cannot recognize who you are and what you are manifesting, you feign ignorance of it, the truth is that Christ is not in you.
43. I repeat. If you cannot recognize who you are and what you are manifesting, you feign ignorance of it. Anytime it is mentioned you say “I know nothing about it,” you start behaving as if God is a liar. God said, the truth is that Christ is not in you. You are not saved.
44. You are one of those counterfeits, make believers, misfits, dangerous dogs, wicked people, false brethren that are here for too many reasons other than eternal life.
45. I rewind. If you cannot recognize who you are and what you are manifesting, you feign ignorance of it, the truth is that Christ is not in you.
46. You are not saved. You are one of those counterfeits, make believers, misfits, dangerous dogs, wicked people, false brethren that are here for too many reasons other than eternal life. You must know the truth will set you free.
47. AWFUL IMPLICATIONS OF REMOVING YOUR EYES FROM HE THAT HAS CALLED YOU TO GLORY AND VIRTUE, page 94, from verse 40.
48. Instinct, something that you received no special training in performing it. Something that just crops up from your heart without premeditation.
49. You cannot explain how the thing came about but you see yourself manifesting it, without any prior thinking. That is why God said, “our eyes should be on the alert against spiritual danger,” for the worst obituary is spiritual obituary. Spiritual obituary.
50. Be very careful the way you listen to voice of strangers, the crowd. Their opinions, their suggestions have been proven to run contrary to the will of God.
51. No child of God has ever followed the crowd without doing himself the greatest hurt, without causing sorrows and pains that will be difficult to erase.
52. If you do not want to pierce yourself with many sorrows, fix your eyes on He that has called you to glory and virtue.Let Him be your example in all things. If Christ is not your example, you are totally lost.
53. A MISTAKE CAN BE PARDONED WHERE THERE IS NO MASTER PIECE, BUT ONCE A MASTERPIECE IS PRESENTED, TO ADMIT A MISTAKE WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT. IT IS A WILLFUL ACT, WILLFUL DISOBEDIENCE.
54. Have you seen that any disobedience from now is what? Willful disobedience.
55. Some might have reasons why they are saying no to Saint Paul. There is a Saint Paul in your day or shall I say greater than Saint Paul is in your midst. Greater than Moses is in your midst.
56. They were told about the Cloud in the days of Saint Paul, but they never saw the Cloud. They heard about the resurrected Jesus, but they never saw Him. They were told about the great signs and wonders, but they never saw one.
57. But in your day, you are dwelling with the fullness of the Deity. When He came down in our midst, He came down with all His attributes and displayed the totality of His splendor, for that reason we have no excuse to give.
58. Then if you hate your life, you can remove your eyes from the cloud. Then if you hate your life, God is not forcing us, He said what? If you hate your life, you can now remove your eyes from the cloud.Fix it wherever you want to fix it, if you love your life, you glue your eyes to the Cloud.
59. He is your all and all. He is your baptism. He is even your holiness, your sanctification and your perfection because in Him, you are presented to God.In Him, we are presented to God.
60. HEAR MY VOICE O HEAVEN HEAR MY VOICE O EARTH, Vol. 3, page 82, verse 37-42. Who is a wise man? He is one that feareth God; honoureth God and avoideth evil. That is a wise man. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
61. But where is the fear of God in you which is the beginning of wisdom? You think you are doing God harm? ‘Now, you know that you sinners are destined for the day of destruction,’ you will be destroyed in the furnace so that you do not begin to think it is what the Book of Revelation painted. Look at it.
62. It has been documented 5682 years ago. ‘Do not even hope to live,’ do not hope to live. One that does not honour the word of God can never taste life; he can never see good days on earth.
63. ‘You will depart and die. There is no ransom for you,’ there is no ransom; nothing could be used to purchase your life again. ‘for you are destined for the great Judgment Day,’ finish. You have been earmarked for that day.
64. Why? Because evil doing is imbibed there in your heart and you just move on with it like that.
65. Evil doing is imbibed there in the person’s heart and the person moves on like that thinking that nothing is happening. “After all, God did not strike me then, let us continue,” or “God did not see me,” God is watching you closely.
66. Because evil doing is imbibed there in your heart and you just move on with it like that. It is just like we are hearing this word now. Instead of that individual to have a rethink about his life, he just goes away like that. You just throw what you heard away.
67. Brethren, what is the person expecting if not judgment and destruction from the Almighty God?
68. Lastly, BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH, page 86 verse 60. A word is enough for the wise. That is the last paragraph; a word is enough for the wise. If this Message touched you, put them into practice and you will not regret it. Amen.
69. Brethren on this note, I say thank you and remain blessed.
This is why every opportunity God gives us to live on earth is to sanitize our lives, to better our lives. If there is any mistake I made yesterday but could not correct it, I can correct it today. That we are living on is not for enjoyment or to mess up ourselves or harden up in iniquity. We are living on to purify ourselves more, because as you grow, so wisdom and understanding come into you. Then you repackage yourself and know how to possess your vessel onto honour. Thus, it is very, very important as children of God and as it has become clear to us that the Faith we are in, is not the Faith we will start saying let us re-examine our Faith; Re-examine your Faith is not in this Faith. What you should be re-examining is your life. What I should be re-examining is my life to know whether my life is in line with the Message.
EXAMINE YOUR LIFE IN THE LIGHT OF THE TRUTH PREACHED 24TH MARCH, 2015;PG. 70:4-6

CONCLUSION
[BY THE SON OF MAN]
Remember the topic is still on; EVALUATE YOURSELF, VOLUME 2. Scrutinize; investigate yourself, to see whether you will escape the judgment of God that is already on in the world and also in the bride. Because the time allotted to the bride, they refused to repent.
2. For that reason, judgment of the world overlapped into the judgment of the Bride, and God said it is going to be continuous. You do not know how it is going to come to you tomorrow.
3. IF YOU HARDEN YOUR HEART AGAINST THIS MESSAGE, YOU ARE INVITING THE WRATH, YOU ARE INVITING THE FULL WEIGHT OF THE WRATH OF GOD UPON YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY.
4. But in this family that is called by the name of God, by His enabling power we do everything to help ourselves, to help others to see reasons why they should make a U-turn.
5. So, to all of us that have heard what God said, let us tremble at His word. Let us do the right thing by making sure we get rid of everything that is wrong in our lives, in our minds.
6. Let us not only sanitize the environment, but our hearts, our body with sanitizer.
7. LET US ALSO SANITIZE OUR HEARTS WITH THE WORD OF GOD, SO THAT OUR HEARTS WILL BE PURE. FOR GOD WILL NOT DESTROY A MAN WITH A PURE HEART.
8. That is the much we will take for today, trusting God that, if there be next Sunday, we shall also gather here to listen to Him. But from now till next Sunday, as we have formed it as our habit here, every day in this family belongs to God.
9. Every day in this family belongs to God. Our lives belong to God. Our going out and our coming in; the food we are eating is not our own, it is God that is providing.
10. So the life He has given to us is the life to enable to us worship Him, not to use the life in any other vocation other serving His interest. So we give Him the glory for everything, as we bow down and pray.
PRAYER
| O |
ur dear heavenly Father, our hearts are filled with joy. Even if our whole bodies be mouths, it is not enough to praise You. We thank You on the behalf of the Message we have heard, on the behalf of the ministers you have used to minister to our souls.
2. We equally thank You immensely for preparing this Word, even in print form, that we will not perish. Father we are very grateful to You.
3. As You have enriched us with knowledge, with wisdom from on high, enrich us with understanding as well. Do not allow us O God, to push Your words we have heard aside, but may we utilize them to purify our hearts, purify our life, so that we will not come to your condemnation.
4. As we see your judgement, Father, going round the whole globe, You promised that we shall be watching as spectators. And you are mindful of Your promise, we are believing You that You will do all You have said. Help us to abide in Your presence now and even till eternity.
5. Our entire brethren scattered round the whole world, as many as are privileged O Lord to hook up with this family, hook up with this Message and utilize it O God the way you have directed. Grant that this Message will become O God a hedge among them that are sanctified by the truth.
6. Even the errant people among us, Father, if they stretch their hands O God, and receive the engrafted word in their hearts, help that the Word will do the greater work in their lives.
7. But as many as have hardened their hearts, and have decided to work hypocritically for reasons best known to them, may they all be destroyed.
8. We will continue to give You the praise, and honor as we commit the rest of our day’s activities into Your hand. We pray that You pilot our remaining affairs in the way and manner that will give Your name glory and praise.
9. Father, we bow down and say thank You Lord. Do not create any room for the devil to buffet us. Build a strong hedge around this premises and around the premises of all our children, even in distant lands.
10. Make it impossible for diseases, pestilences, troubles and hardship to ever penetrate. Insulate them O God against Your judgment. May they be spectators, watching from the ground stands that in the end we give glory to Your name.
11. Father we say thank You Lord, and we believe you will save all your elects worldwide. No one will be a victim except those that have refused to change their hearts, change their attitudes.
12. In this family, save every soul. We say thank You Lord for hearing our prayers, through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen!
