BLESSED IS HE WHO DOES NOT STUMBLE AT THE WORD OF GOD Preached During the Family Fellowship On Friday 16th April, 2021 By PASTOR THOMAS EZE Approved & Authorized By The Son Of Man
PRAYER
Blessed be Your Most Holy Name, O LORD SON OF MAN, our God. Our mouths are filled with praises to You LORD for your care and for your mercy.
2. You are more than worthy to be worshipped, to receive praises and to be honoured. We thank You for guiding and protecting us since morning to this hour.
3. We have gathered in Your presence as we have agreed with You LORD, to gather every Friday. We thank You Father for Your love and care which You have been showering upon us.
4. We thank You LORD for sustaining the joy of our salvation in our hearts, for everything will perish but Your Word remaineth till eternity. And that is why anybody that lacks the Word will remain hungry till eternity.
5. We thank You Father for satisfying us with your word. We thank you for opening our spiritual eyes to behold this Wondrous Grace the world has missed, but You revealed Yourself to us.
6. We never merited it in any form or shape, but You decided to; You wanted to. You chose us before the world began. We say may Your Most Holy Name be highly glorified till eternity in the Mighty Name of Peter the Christ, Amen.
7. Father, we say O LORD, as You have started with us, may You continue with us till the end of this Fellowship tonight. Always dwell with us. All the Ministers in every family called by Your Name round the globe, Father may you veil yourself in them and let your people hear Your Voice.
8. Meet us at the point of our needs. May you take absolute control so that all of us will benefit from You O LORD our God.
9. We pray also that after this Fellowship, we will rejoice that you have touched us O LORD where we need correction and you want us to live, physically and spiritually also.
10. We pray O LORD that you destroy all efforts of the enemy to disturb our fellowship today; we pray may you destroy and crush them into ashes in the mighty name of Peter the Christ, Amen.
11. Thank you great Jehovah for this and more we pray in the mighty name of Peter the Christ. Amen.
God has given us victory. If you have no faith now, have faith in the Living Tabernacle that God has ordained His Shepherd that will guard His Ark. The Ark of God is the Word of God. ……. He is here; I owe no man any apology for saying the truth. I know I am dying for the Truth. Why must I be afraid? I better not. I know, one day, this place must be closed, we will scatter, every man to his home, every woman to her village. Then we will know whether you are godly or not. Godliness is not in the Church. Godliness is in your home. It is in your yard. It is in your business. It is in your market and it is in your everything. You come here to receive training and then you go outside to practice it. You see why you must worship God by revelation, that no man, no woman, no preacher will preach out your conviction, because you are certain. IF HE IS NOT HERE, I WOULD NOT BE HERE. THIS IS THE TRUTH. AMEN.

GOD WANTS US TO BELIEVE HIM WITH ALL OUR HEART
We thank God for keeping us alive till this day. Let us look into the scriptures once again. The Bible has been helping us to know the truth and when the truth is revealed, we have nothing to do with the Bible again. We were told by the Almighty that the bible is our school master.
2. The Bible guided us to the truth and the truth is Christ and Christ is a human being, Christ is a man. That is why THE SON OF MAN is the Christ of our own day for in him the deity is dwelling fully in completeness.
3. The totality of the God Head is dwelling in THE SON OF MAN. That is why every word that proceeds out of his mouth is according to the truth and must surely fulfill.
4. I want us to look into the Bible. I am taking my topic from Matthew 11:6. This is the problem that those that served God in time past were having and it is still repeating in our own generation. This is the problem majority of you are having today. Greater problem majority of us are having today.
5. Greater blessing awaits that individual who does not misunderstand the word of God. Anybody who does not get angry or stumble at God’s indictment or chastisement is a true seed of God. We are ordinary clay in God’s hands, and He is the Potter.
6. Just like a potter can break a cup he molded into pieces and use it to remold another cup with a different shape, the former cup has no strength to ask the potter why did you crush me? I want us to understand something here, that greater blessing awaits that individual who does not stumble at the word of God.
7. Matthew 11:6 And blessed (happy, fortunate and to be envied) is he who takes no offense at Me and finds no cause for stumbling in or through Me and is not hindered from seeing the Truth [AMP]
8. Nothing will make him or her be hindered from or to stumble at the Word of God. Nothing will hinder him/her from obeying the Word of God A – Z. If it is a woman, the husband will not hinder her. If it is a man, the wife will not hinder him from putting the word of God to practice A – Z with all his mind.
9. You see, blessed, happy to be envied, fortunate is that individual man or woman who does not stumble at the word of God. And when we are saying God we are referring to THE SON OF MAN for He is the creator of heaven and earth and everything there is. Anybody that does not quake, does not tremble when God is correcting him or her or indicting him for his error is a serpent seed, seed of devil.
10. There are many like that, God will be talking and indicting them of their evil character they will just wave it aside and continue with what they are doing thinking that nothing will happen. God said that you should pray that he will not hand you over to reprobate spirit.
11. If God gives you over to reprobate spirit, it means that He (God) has rejected you and all your daily manifestations will be evil. Will the individual remain in our midst? The answer is yes. He will be there to fulfill all the negative prophecies but a seed of God will say God forbid. God please do not allow me to fulfill this negative prophecy.
12. How happy are those who have no doubt about me. [GNB]
13. How happy are those who have no doubt about Christ. No instruction will ever make him/her to stumble at God’s word. Always accepting the Word of God with joy.
14. Do not look at your brother or sister to know whether they are doing it or not, it is not your business. Your business should be yourself. My business should be myself and My God.
15. Blessed is he/she who sees right from day one, the Word of God that has been stumbling many. That is the reason why the world was destroyed in Noah’s day. They stumbled at the Word of God called Noah because Noah was the God of that age.
16. They stumbled at his word, Noah preached the Word for 120 years but they could not believe in the Word always saying “God forbid!” Who can believe this? Yet, there were people rejoicing at the Word. They were not stumbled by the Word.
17. Today is our time! All of us here in this family called by God does God’s Word stumble us? If His Words does not stumble us, why are we lagging behind in one way or the other. Why does God chastise and rebuke us at our short comings with the level of teachings [He]God has given us, for we ought to be perfect like him in all ramifications in every aspect of life.
18. ‘Then give him this message, “Blessed are those who don’t doubt me’”. [LB]
19. God is telling to us, happy is that individual who does not have any doubt in God. God brought grace to us so that He can save us by grace but many stumble at the grace of God. He is still following us with grace till today.
20. If God should punish us according to level of our iniquities nobody will be alive to worship God today. God told us that this grace will not last forever. All our time of ignorance has passed, we have known Christ, known his doctrines, known his attributes, what He loves and what He hates, His likes and dislikes, we have known all so were without excuse.
21. John 6:51-66 48-51Yes, I am the bread of life! When your fathers in the wilderness ate bread from the skies, they all died. But the bread from heaven gives eternal life to everyone who eats it. I am that living bread that came down out of heaven. Anyone eating this bread shall live forever; this bread is my flesh given to redeem humanity.
22. Note, Jesus was talking to his disciples in his own day about the Jews they claimed to be sons and daughters of Abraham but the deeds of Abraham they denied. Abraham was a friend of God but these people that claimed to proceed from Abraham hated God in Human form in the person of Jesus the Christ.
23. They stumbled at his word, they never believed him. We have the bread of our own day in the person of Apostle Peter Odoemena (blessed be to his holy name) in human form. He is the Bread of Life, when we eat it, we will never get hungry again.
24. There is no other way God propagated to save mankind if not for through His Word. Believe in His Word, believe in Him who God sent in your own day and you are saved.
25. 52Then the Jews began arguing with each other about what he meant?…..
26. You see, because they stumbled at God’s statement, they stumbled at his Word; they began arguing about what he had said. From time to time, we all manifest it.
27. THE MOMENT THE WORD OF GOD DOES NOT SINK WELL WITH YOUR HEART, YOU BEGIN TO MURMUR; YOU BEGIN TO COMPLAIN BECAUSE IT DOES NOT SINK WELL WITH YOU.
28. You did not recognize the Personality talking to you. Once I recognize the Personality talking to me, I will do whatever He asks me to do without looking sideways.
29. That shows that His Word is not a provocation to me. God does not want this character to continue manifesting in our lives from today.
30. God wants us to believe Him with all our heart. Believe without asking questions. God told us that faith is a zombified faith. Once you add your own sense, the Word of God must surely provoke you; you must stumble at His Word.
31. You cannot reason the Word of God and get it right. The Word of God does not have any alternative way of obeying it, truth has no substitute.
32. Blessed is he, blessed is she, happy to be envied is that man or woman who does not stumble at God’s word. God told us that everything has finished, we should not give all our time to pursuit of material things to the neglect of our soul.
33. The Word of God is sensitive. The Word of God is God. God is highly sensitive. Once we show “I don’t care” attitude to the things of the spirit He will leave but if you are serious with Him, He must be serious with you helping you to obey Him.
34. No seed of God obeys God by his/her power or might, it is God helping him/her to obey him because the Word of God does not provoke him/her, it gives him joy.
35. When you see a seed of God putting God’s Word into practice, it falls in line with God’s teaching because he is doing it with joy.
36. But when you see a seed of the devil trying to put God’s word into practice, it does not fall in line with God’s teaching because he is struggling with the spirit, he is struggling with the advice given to him for his own good.
37. Many come to God to seek for advice and when God finally gives them advice, they go ahead neglecting it and doing their heart’s desire because God’s advice does not sink well with them.
38. By doing this he/she is grieving the Holy Spirit. If you grieve the Holy Spirit in you that will mark you good on the last day, evil spirit will mark you.
39. Once the Word of God goes out of God’s mouth, it must fulfill that purpose for which cause the Word went forth even if it is one person, then the rest will be condemned.
40. 52Then the Jews began arguing with each other about what he meant. “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” they asked.
41. You see. The fear of God has left many. That is why the Holy Teaching we received from Almighty God is no longer effective in our lives.
42. When you come to the families, you see carnality, with the husband behaving the way he wants, and wife behaving the way she wants.
43. These are people waiting for translation. Who will translate somebody that does not have the fear of God.
44. AT ANY MOMENT WHEN THE WORD OF GOD CEASES TO BE A SOURCE OF PROVOCATION TO US, WE ARE A BLESSED PEOPLE. YOU WILL BE ENVIED BY OTHERS AROUND YOU.
45. When they ask you what you eat, you tell them that you eat the Word; you are at home with the Word; you are at rest with the Word of God, for without you, the Word of God is incomplete.
46. So we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. Take side with the truth for we are truth ourselves. Our duty is to follow God with faith.
47. Verse 53 “So Jesus said it again, “With all the earnestness I possess I tell you this: Unless you eat the flesh of the Messiah and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you.
48. But anyone who does eat my flesh and drink my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him at the last day.
49. For my flesh is the true food, and my blood the true drink. Everyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood is in me, and I in him. I live by the power of the living father who sent me and in the same way those who partake of me shall live because of me.
50. I am the true Bread from heaven;… Christ is the bread of life which when we eat it, as we are eating it now, will live forever.
51. Verse 58 I am the true Bread from heaven and anyone who eats this Bread shall live forever and not die as your fathers did–though they ate bread from heaven. (He preached this sermon in the synagogue in Capernaum).”
… However, as long as I am here, I still believe I am your Consolation, because I am a Perfect Guide. Yes! I am not giving you instruction from behind. I am leading in front so that if there is any pit, I will fall in first. I signed My life in. So I am involved. You have every cause to glorify God. If by now, nobody from anywhere, even from the moon, has succeeded in defeating you, I mean, disarming you, let it be known to you that you have won your battle.

THE WORD OF GOD IS OUR GUIDE
The reason why we are alive and refreshed today is the Word of God; The Word of THE SON OF MAN; The Teachings of THE SON OF MAN. The Word of God that we believe and put into practice is our Guide, our Salvation, our Redemption. It is everything to us.
2. Verse 60 Even his disciples said, “This is very hard to understand… Who said it was very hard to understand? The disciples. Are we not Disciples of Christ today? We are. At times, when we hear the Word of God, we begin to say, “This is a hard statement. Who can believe this?”
3. But what God demands from us whenever we hear His Word is to say Amen. He is our LORD. He created us and gave us the breath of life. He makes us to wake up every morning by his mercy and love.
4. He thought that His disciples already believed in Him to the core, but they also stumbled at God’s Word. They were provoked at His Word, and they said, “Who can believe this? Who can believe this doctrine? Who can believe this instructions?”
5. Verse 60 “Even his disciples said. “This is very hard to understand. Who can tell what he means?” Jesus knew within himself that his disciples were complaining and said to them,…
6. You see! Jesus Christ knew that his disciples were complaining and murmuring. Why is God talking about Onitsha till now? This is the reason. We are always murmuring and complaining.
7. Why are we complaining? Why does the Word of God stumble us? He decided to save us and made us to understand that we were his children before the world began. He became a human being and also made all of us to be human beings.
8. This is the problem God is having with Onitsha household. We stumble at his Word. BLESSED IS HE/SHE WHO THE WORD OF GOD DOES NOT STUMBLE.
9. Verse 61 Jesus knew within himself that his disciples were complaining and said to them, “Does this offend you? Then what will you think if you see me, the messiah, return to heaven again?
10. THE SON OF MAN is not only teaching us, but He is also living the life of His Messages. I am saying this out of experience, before He started living the life even with his family. Then, what is the stumbling block there?
11. Onitsha household is the most privileged household because God resides here with us. Other people outside here are having his influence, but we are having dealings practically with Him.
12. Then, why can we not pattern our lives after Him and His Family? I will be patterning after Him. My wife pattering after His wife. And my children pattering after His children.
13. God’s intention towards us are thoughts of good and not of evil. The devil wants us to be destroyed by disobeying God’s Word. When the devil deceives you by making you think that God is deceiving us, that is the moment you are destroyed. You have now stumbled at God’s Word.
14. Verse 63 Only the Holy Spirit gives eternal life?… What? Only the Holy Spirit gives eternal life.
15. AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE WORD OF GOD WHICH WE HAVE RECEIVED AND WILL CONTINUE TO RECEIVE TILL ETERNITY. ONLY BELIEVING AND PRACTICING THE WORD OF GOD GIVES ETERNAL LIFE. THE EVIDENCE THAT I BELIEVE IS WHEN I PUT WHAT I HAVE HEART INTO PRACTICE.
16. Verse 63 Only the Holy Spirit gives eternal life. Those born only once, with physical birth, will never receive this gift. But now I have told you how to get this true spiritual life.
17. But some of you don’t believe me.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning who didn’t believe and knew the one who would betray him).
18. And he remarked, “That is what I meant when I said that no one can come to me unless the father attracts him to me.”
19. At this point many of his disciples turned away and deserted him. At this point where are now, God said that nobody is with Him; that Onitsha household is zero. Everybody has left God, and are only after material things. Everybody is now selfish.
20. But God surely knows those that are His own, for the Word of God standeth sure in the life of he that believes.
21. Jeremiah 8:4-7 (Living Bible) Once again give them this message from the LORD… God was telling Jeremiah, Give My people this message from Me (their LORD).
22. God has given us everything we need to be totally or complete children of God; To reason like God; to think like God; and to do everything like Him.
23. What made Him God, He has given it to us, but the zeal to study the Word of God; to do the will of God is not there. We have the knowledge of who God is; the knowledge about God, but the zeal to practice what we have received is not there.
24. IT IS BETTER THAT WE DO NOT KNOW THE TRUTH, RATHER THAN PERISHING AFTER KNOWING THE TRUTH.
25. Apostle Peter said that whosoever that has knowledge of all the truth and refuses to put them into practice is like a dog going back to his vomit. Nothing can be done to make it clean again.
26. Verse 4 Once again give them this message from the LORD: When a person falls, he jumps up again; when he is on the wrong road and discovers his mistake, he goes back to the fork where he made the wrong turn. BUT THESE PEOPLE KEEP ON ALONG THEIR EVIL PATH, EVEN THOUGH I WARN THEM. …
27. Look! God is saying that other people sin. And when they discover they are on the wrong path, they repent and get converted. But my people keep on sinning and sinning.
28. They keep on stumbling at the Word of God on a daily basis. The Word of God is very hard and difficult for them to obey. Then what makes you a child of God.
29. You call yourself a child of God when the things of God offend you; which means you do not have God’s attribute and nature.
30. A SEED OF GOD IS THE SAME THING WITH GOD. A SEED OF GOD HAS NO DIFFICULTY IN UNDERSTANDING GOD AND DOING WHAT HE SAYS. THE WORD OF GOD DOES NOT STUMBLE A SEED OF GOD.
31. HE CAN NEVER STUMBLE AT THE WORD OF GOD BECAUSE WHAT HE DESIRES TO GET FROM GOD, IS WHAT HE GETS. HE WANTS TO HEAR FROM GOD ALL THE TIME.
32. Just like David. He always wants to be in the presence of God and that was why he said, “I am glad when they say, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.””
33. THE HOUSE OF GOD IS NOT CEMENT AND BLOCK. THE HOUSE OF GOD IS IN HUMAN BEINGS.
34. And that is why the Hindu religion says that the least place man can find God is in a human being.
35. If we are part of what God is doing in our midst, where is the impact in our lives?
36. “But these people keep on along their evil path, even though I warn them. I listen to their conversation and what to do I hear? Is anyone sorry for sin?…
37. Look at that! When Brethren meet each other in their work place, in the market, in the school, when they talk on phone, God hears everything we say.
38. Everybody is saying that the teaching of Christ are difficult. This is because if it is not difficult to the individual, he would not be complaining and murmuring.
39. Nobody is sorry for his or her sins anymore. Even when God is hammering on it, he does not care. What he says in his hearts is that God should keep on talking. It shows that, that is what we are saying.
40. But if you have the fear of God in your heart, before God will finish what He is saying, you feel sorry for your actions and change immediately.
41. The next minute your actions, your behaviour will tell God that you have repented, and that you have changed.
42. We have a message tittle CHANGE YOUR HEART AND MIND. Do not allow the Word of God to stumble you in any form or shape. The Word of God can come to you as a child through your parents. Do you accept it and put it into practice?
43. When you are told not to have any friend, for your friend will kill you and not your enemy, do you obey it?
44. IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A FRIEND, MAKE FRIENDS WITH THE WORD OF GOD AND WITH ANY MAN OR WOMAN WHERE YOU SEE THE WORD OF GOD.
45. THE FEAR OF GOD IS TO HATE EVIL. TO LOVE GOD IS TO HATE EVIL. THE EVIDENCE THAT YOU LOVE ME IS TO HATE ANY EVIL YOU SEE IN ME, REBUKE THAT EVIL.
46. You can now say, “Get behind me Satan” because I am devil at that point. Jesus told Peter, “Get behind me Satan” when he wanted to counter the will of God for him.
47. The disciples of Jesus also deserted him because they had carnal or physical interpretation of what he said. And he asked them, “Does my word stumble you too? Does my word offend you too?”
48. This is what God is asking us today; all families and all individuals. Since you cannot say, “AT THY WORD O LORD” in this flesh, is it in Paradise that you will now say it? Never never!
49. And remember, God said that the last thing He will do is to sponsor a coup that will overthrow Him. A hypocrite is one that stumbles at the Word of God. Instead of rejoicing in the Word, he stumbles at the word.
50. The scripture says that when the Gentiles heard the word, they rejoiced because the word gave them joy. EVERY TRUE SEED OF GOD DERIVES JOY FORM THE WORD OF GOD.
51. Look at these people in the days of Jeremiah. They were not ready to turn away from their sins.
52. Does anyone say, “What terrible thing I have done?” No, all are rushing pell-mell down the path of sin as swiftly as a horse rushing to the battle.
53. The stork knows the time of her migration as does the turtledove, the crane and the swallow. They all return at God’s appointed time each year; but not my people! They don’t accept the laws of God.
54. They do not accept the laws of God. Remember that we are no longer in the laws of Moses, but in the laws of THE SON OF MAN.
“35Sin is unbelief and always heavy. It leaves a man or a woman in a confused state. Once sin enters your heart which is unbelief, you will be limping between two opinions, you do not know whether you are right or wrong, you will be querying many things and you will be thinking that the former is better than the latter because you are no longer sure of what you are doing. Doubt has set in, faith has vanished.
WHY ARE YOU SITTING DOWN WHILE CHRIST IS STILL STANDING? Volume 1 preached on SUNDAY 7TH JULY, 2019 at The Household of God, Onitsha. Page 51 verse 35,

STUMBLING AT THE WORD OF GOD
Jeremiah 8:14-15 Living Bible. Then the people will say, ‘Why should we wait here and die? Come, let us go to walled cities and perish there.
2. You see! They stumbled at the Word of God given to them. If we do not stumble or get offended at the Word of God, nothing will stop eternity [Paradise] with our God. Do not query the Word of God.
3. ONCE YOU STUMBLE AT THE WORD OF GOD, YOU WILL START MAKING CAUSTIC REMARKS WHICH ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO COME OUT FROM YOUR MOUTH.
4. Many people now say, “Come let us go and live our life the way we want. After all, everybody now worships God in their houses.
5. Come, let us go to the walled cities and perish there. For the LORD our God has decreed doom and given us a cup of poison to drink because of all our sins.
6. You see the interpretation they gave to God’s Word? God never said that, but they gave it their own interpretation. That is why God normally tells us, “I wish you what you wish yourself.”
7. IF YOU WANT AND DETERMINES TO SPEND YOUR ETERNITY WITH CHRIST, IT SHALL BE SO UNTO YOU. YOU WILL NOW BEGIN TO OBEY AND PRACTICE THE WORD OF GOD.
8. You cannot stumble at His Word again. Instead, you become happy because it is not easy to know who God is; God speaking to you face to face, telling you things He wants you to do and what not to do, guiding you in your work place, in school, while sleeping.
9. Wherever the children of God are, He is always there protecting them.
10. Verse 15 We expected peace, but no peace came; we looked for health, but there was only terror.
11. How can peace come in unbelief? No unbeliever can ever have peace. Human beings know exactly what they are doing. They know that they have offended God. There was no peace in their life again.
12. Why did they disobey God’s Word? It is because they gave it the wrong interpretation. And that is why we remain in terror. When we want health, we see sickness. When we want peace, we see terror. We will now start asking whether God is still alive; or whether God is still with us.
13. ANYBODY THAT IS FIGHTING AGAINST THE TRUTH, THE TRUTH WILL CRUSH HIM/HER LIKE POWDER.
14. Jeremiah 8:18-21 My grief is beyond healing; my heart is broken. … The man of God, Jeremiah lamenting, “Why have my people decided to perish.” God never wanted you to perish.
15. This is how it weakens the Almighty God in our midst that majority of us have chosen to perish; to go to hell. They are struggling their way to go to hell.
16. God told us that a man struggles his way to paradise. None in them is easy. You must struggle your way to either hell or heaven.
17. My grief is beyond healing, my heart is broken. Listen to the weeping of my people all across the land. “Where is the LORD?” they asked. “Has God deserted us?”
18. WHEN YOU LEAVE GOD, GOD WILL LEAVE YOU. ONCE YOU LEAVE THE WORD OF GOD, YOU HAVE LEFT GOD. AND GOD WILL LEAVE YOU.
19. ONCE YOU LEAVE THE WORD OF GOD YOU HAVE LEFT GOD. AND GOD WILL REMAIN WHERE HE IS. GOD REMAINS AT ONE PLACE. IF YOU COME TO HIM HE WILL ACCEPT YOU.
20. He told us that anybody that comes to Him, He will in no wise cast away. But when you leave God, God still remains where He is. And when you meet disaster, you run back to God, if there will still be chance for you to come back.
21. “Oh, why have they angered me with their carved idols and strange evil rites? the LORD replies.
22. God is asking, “Why we should anger Him by going our way; every man going his own way; every woman going her own way, not knowing that we are heading to our doom.
23. Many do not believe that God sees their behaviour and characters in their various homes.
24. There are too many people that do not take this Friday worship seriously. Some just pray for few minutes and go their way.
25. Anytime you visit the Almighty God, He is always reading the Message. Whether morning, afternoon or night, He is never tired of reading the Messages, not minding the fact that all came out from Him.
26. He is always studying to help His Family and help the entire Bride. He is always trying; suffering to keep us in the Word so that the devil will not deceive any of us.
27. The devil is not a spirit, the devil can be either you or me. Once I keep on obeying the doctrines and teachings from God, I am holy, I am righteous but the moment I start disobeying God’s words, God’s teaching I have become devil at the moment. So, any spirit you spirit you allow to be in control of you at any point in time determines what you want God to call you.
28. “The harvest is finished, the summer is over and we are not saved.
29. Look at it, God is about to wrap up everything, but majority of us are not yet ready, why? We have passed the law and moved over to grace of God, we now want to go into paradise by our works which is impossible.
30. The only way we can succeed and enter eternity with God is by trusting and obeying, allowing the Word of God to take preeminence in our lives, in our families, everywhere we find ourselves. The only parameter we can use to checkmate ourselves as children of God is the Word of God.
31. “21I weep for the hurt of my people; I stand amazed, silent, dumb with grief.
32. This is the hour we ought to be sober, and encourage one another so that the Almighty God will intervene and have mercy on all of us and save us at last.
33. When our characters all change for the better, the fear of all is made evident in the life of fathers, mothers, children and even infants we will see that God will be so much pleased with us.
34. God has given us everything patterning to life and Godliness, why are we still misbehaving? God wishes the best for all of us but we are wishing ourselves doom.
35. We are not supposed to stumble at the Word of God in any form or shape because we know where we are going to. We know who is leading us.
36. Everything about God’s attributes has been made evident before our eyes. God’s prophecies have all fulfilled, we are only waiting for one and that is translation of this mortal body into immortality. And God has been hammering on this, telling us that many have missed it already.
37. Majority have missed it already, we better run back to God. As I thought on my ways, I ran back to God. Let this family make a decision today, that we will put all the Words we have heard from God into practice. I have made my decision, you make yours.
38. “I weep for the hurt of my people, I stand amazed, silent, dumb with grief.”
39. Micah 2:6-10 6The people preach at me and say, “Don’t preach at us. Don’t preach about all that. God is not going to disgrace us”. 7Do you think the people of Israel are under a curse? Has the Lord lost his patience? Would he really do such things? Doesn’t he speak kindly to those who do right?
40. 8The Lord replies, “You attack my people like enemies. Men return from battle thinking they are safe at home, but there you are, waiting to steal the coats off their backs.
41. 9You drive the women of my people out of the homes they love, and you have robbed their children of my blessings forever. 10Get up and go, there is no safety here anymore. Your sins have doomed this place to destruction.” [GNB]
42. Look at, the prophet Micah was talking to the children of God telling them that the wrath of God has come upon them. There is no fear of God again in their hearts, wishing one another evil.
43. Envy and jealousy that is what is being manifested in different households today. Anybody that hates the word of God, hates himself or herself. Anybody that hates a child of God, hates him/herself and God can never be happy with you.
44. Instead of obeying the word of God, doing all that God asked us to do in order to be severed from the wrath of God that is coming upon mankind we are busy adding iniquity upon iniquity.
45. God said it in one of our messages and it is also recorded in the book of Corinthians that eyes have not seen, ears have not heard what God has prepared for those that love him, the same way eyes have not seen and ears have not heard what God has prepared for the children of disobedience, those that have neglected the word of God and behaved the way they want.
46. Acts 7:57-58 Then they mobbed him, putting their hands over their ears, and drowning….
47. You see, here Stephen was called to testify on his revelation about the Lord Jesus and his preaching. As he was talking to the people of Israel about who the Lord Jesus they killed truly was, they all closed their ears with their hands shouting, telling him to stop talking.
48. Saul ordered that he should be dragged outside and stoned to death. They stumbled at the Word of God because they did not have the Spirit of Truth.
49. Anybody that does not have the Spirit of Truth must stumble at the Word of God and once you stumble at the Word of God, you cannot obey it again.
50. The benefits, the blessings that follow obedience will not come to that person again because you have stumbled at the Word already.
51. 57Then they mobbed him, putting their hands over their ears, and drowning out his voice in their shouts, 58and dragged him out of the city to stone him. The official witnesses-the executioners-took off their coats and laid them at the feet of a young man named Paul. [LB]
52. Blessings shall follow us all the days of our lives if we do not stumble at the Word of God. And that Word of God is THE SON OF MAN. He is The Word made flesh in our own day and His Words are final till eternity.
53. If He says you are free, you are free. If He says you are perfect, you are perfect. If He says you are righteous, you are righteous.
54. If we decide to obey God and glorify his name through our actions and thoughts, He will help us because He said that the cup you measure unto God is the same cup He will measure unto you. If you believe the Word of God, the Word of God will dwell in you.
55. If I believe the Word of God, He will dwell in me and dwelling in me means leading me in doing everything according to His will. The moment you keep believing the Word of God; I keep believing the Word of God, God’s abundant blessings will be ours.
56. Human beings always think that whatever good thing they are doing is for the benefit of their fellow man. Nothing weakens God more than the fact that when he is wishing us good, we wish ourselves bad. How can you wish yourselves bad?
GOD IS SAYING YOU SHOULD COME BEFORE HIM TODAY, JUST AS YOU ARE, TAKE THAT DECISION. TAKE THAT DECISION TO FOLLOW HIM AND NEVER DRAW BACK. FOLLOW HIM WITHOUT LOOKING BACK, HE WILL RECEIVE YOU, HE WILL WELCOME YOU, HE WILL PARDON YOU, HE WILL CLEANSE YOU, HE WILL WASH YOUR SINS AWAY, HE WILL RELIEVE YOU OF THAT BURDEN BECAUSE HE HAS PROMISED TO SAVE HIS OWN, AND I BELIEVE THAT PROMISE. I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT AS FOR ME, I BELIEVE IT

GOD WILL SURELY DELIVER US
The Bible said “If you know the value of gold preserve it”. It is also a message we have here. This eternal race is more than gold, more than silver, even more than diamond. Eternal life cannot be purchased with money or any other thing.
2. Jeremiah 43: 1 – 4 When Jeremiah had finished giving this message from God to all the people….”
3. Remember that all these prophets are equally God in their dispensations. Prophet William Braham said that we call them Prophets but they are God in their different dispensations.
4. 1When Jeremiah had finished giving this message from God to all the people, 2,3Azariah (Son of Hoshaiah) and Johanna (son of Kareah) and all the other proud men said to Jeremiah, “You lie, The Lord our God hasn’t told you to tell us not to go to Egypt!…..”
5. You see, they were calling God in their own day a liar. You may not come before THE SON OF MAN and tell him that he is a liar but our utterances, our conversations at our various homes, in different places says the same thing. That God is a liar, we cannot be destroyed.
6. “God is the God of mercy, He will surely deliver us. God never told you to come and tell us to stop behaving the way we want. We must behave the way we like. After all, I am in my house, you are in your house. Go to your own house and behave the way you like. You want to tell me that the family of the Son of man have the fear of God in them, are you there with them?”
7. These are the words of proud people, people that have already stumbled at the Word of God. The only words coming from them are always negative words, negative thoughts, negative statements, manifesting negative characters thinking that God’s eyes do not go to and fro watching every activity of men.
8. It is this same God that will reward everybody according to his or her works. If God cannot save you, nothing else can save you. The people of Israel never believed that Jeremiah is God to them.
9. The same thing is happening in our own day today. Too many people in our midst do not believe THE SON OF MAN to be their God, their Lord and Saviour, Creator and Maker. If we do not believe in Him, we must stumble at His Word at all times.
10. Baruch (son of Neriah) has plotted against us and told you to say this so that we will stay here and be killed by the Babylonians or carried off to Babylon as slaves.” 4So Johanan and all the guerrilla leaders and all the people refused to obey the Lord and stay in Judah.[LB]
11. You see! They refused to obey who? The Lord. No human being wishes him/herself good. We always wish ourselves evil and after we will turn round and blame our misfortune on God, “you didn’t save us.”
12. But they have heard the Word of God just the way we hear the Word of God every minute of the day.
13. The Almighty God in our midst is always helping us to be saved in fullness but we are saying No! By the way we live our lives, by the way we walk and by the way we interact.
14. Let us not stumble at the Word of God. God has stored too many food in due season for us, so we have no excuses for misbehaving.
15. John 8:52-59 They said to him, “Now we know for sure that you have a demon! Abraham died, and the Prophets died, yet you say that whoever obeys your teachings will never die……”
16. What is the Word of God? Any Word or instruction that goes out of the mouth of the Almighty God in our midst and you accept it and obey. The true children of God do not stumble at God’s word.
17. But when the Word of God comes to me as an individual or comes to us collectively and it makes us angry. That is a clear sign that we have stumbled at the Word of God. Have I known him as God? Yes. Does His Words give me joy? No.
18. If the Word of God does not give me joy, then His words makes me angry. I have stumbled at the Word. There is no way I will get offended at the Word of God and be a partaker of the blessings that accompany obedience because I did not obey.
19. There is no Word of God that I will obey and say ‘Had I known’. The only time I will say “Had I known” is when I do not do what he tells me to do or when I refuse to do what he tells me to do. That is the only place I will regret and say “Had I known”. And “had I known” has never saved anybody since the world began.
20. Adam and Eve said “Had I known” but it never saved them from the wrath of God.
21. In Noah’s day, he preached the Gospel for 120 years, but ours has not even reached 30years and many are already grumbling and complaining.
22. As far as God is still in this flesh, we should relax our minds, doing all the things He said we should do. Look at this Scripture.
23. The Lord Jesus in His own day was a Rock of offense to the children of the devil, but they were claiming Abraham to be their father. Abraham obeyed God in everything.
24. God told him in the dream to leave his homeland and follow Him to a land that He will show him; a land flowing with milk and honey.
25. Abraham did not negotiate the Word.He took his whole household and embarked on the journey. When they got there, great famine was on the land which made him to flee with his wife to Egypt.
26. Egypt was a city God cursed. No true child of God was supposed to go there, but see what the evil one used to attract them, and to bring them to Egypt. FOOD!
27. That is what the devil is doing to us today. He always uses flashy things to set his trap.
28. THE DEVIL HAS USED THE TELEPHONE HANDSET TO TAKE THE WORLD TO CAPTIVITY. THERE IS NO TYPE OF EVIL THAT CANNOT BE EXECUTED WITH THE USE OF THE TELEPHONE HANDSET.
29. If you are being rebuked about your evil character, and it is a provocation to you, it is a sure sign that you never proceeded from God. If I am the one involved, it is a sure sign I never proceeded from God.
30. But if the Word of God is pointing out some bad characters in me, and I am receiving it with joy and then change my character for good, it goes to show that I proceeded from God.
31. WHEN YOUR PARENTS ARE TALKING TO YOU, GOD IS TALKING TO YOU. THEY ARE TRYING TO DRIVE OUT THE EVIL SPIRITS IN YOU.
32. “They said to him, now we know for sure that you have a demon! Abraham died, and the prophets died, yet you say that whoever obeys your teachings will never die.”
33. You see, they could not understand the Word of God because they did not have the spirit of God which is the true token.
34. They do hear the Word of God without understanding. Seeing they will see but will not perceive. This is what is happening in the world today.
35. So you see, they were blind to the things of God in their day, and that was why they could tell Jesus the Christ in their day that he was possessed by a demon.
36. “Our father Abraham died; you do not claim to be greater than Abraham, do you? And the prophets also died, Who do you think you are?”
37. You see the question they were asking God, “Who do you think you are?” We can ask God the same question in our hearts today. We are having dealings with God spiritually.
38. You might be sitting down here, but your spirit is not here. After hearing the Word of God, you still go out and continue with your old evil lifestyle.
39. WHAT GOD IS LOOKING AT NOW IS THE STATE OF YOUR HEART AT THE MOMENT. You might have been a disobedient child before, but now you are obedient.
40. GOD IS GOING TO JUDGE YOU WITH YOUR PRESENT CONDITION. The same way, you might have been an obedient child before, but now you changed to a disobedient child. God is going to judge you as a disobedient child.
41. “Jesus answered, ‘If I were to honour myself, that honour would be worth nothing. The One who honours me is my Father–the very One you say is your God.”
42. No true seed of God honours himself, it is God that honors us.
43. “You have never known him, but I know him. If I were to say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know him and I obey his words.”
44. Each and everyone of us here knows God, but you can deny knowing Him with your heart. If my life is not according to the teachings God has given us, do I know him? No!
45. GOD HAS REVEALED HIS COMMISSION TO US. AND GOD’S COMMISSION SHOULD BE THE COMMISSION OF EVERY TRUE SEED OF GOD.
46. THE SON OF MAN came to give us full and complete salvation and take us into Paradise with him.
47. Your father Abraham rejoiced that he was to see the time of my coming; he saw it and was glad.
48. They said to him, “You are not even fifty years old–and you have seen Abraham?”
49. “I am telling you the truth”, Jesus replied. “Before Abraham was, I am.”
50. You see! The word of God offended these people. God wants us to obey all his teachings. And that is the only way we can please Him.
51. Whatever life He wants you and I to live is final. No negotiation. Immediately God is saying it, we are obeying it.
52. Remember that in every family, what God looks out for is anybody that obeys his words. That is how it is written in Acts 10:35.Amp
53. In every family; in every Local Assembly; in every country, anybody that honoureth and obeyeth the Word is the person God will mark good. In the midst of twelve, He might take only one; one that obeys the Word.
54. You cannot say that you are a seed of God, but your lifestyle marks you out.
55. “I am telling you the truth”, Jesus replied them. “Before Abraham was born, ‘I Am’.” Then they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and left the temple.”
56. I am reading from the Message WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; preached on 7th March 1999; page 8 verses 9-16.
57. Acts of the apostles 28: 28-31 ‘Be it known therefore until you that salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles and that they will hear it.’
58. We are the Gentiles. The salvation of God was brought to us the Gentiles and that we must hear it.
59. ‘And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves’.
60. Look at that! When they heard this, the Jews departed. The Jews were the children of God; the children of Abraham. They should have been happy with what God said, but instead, it provoked them to anger and they departed.
61. If when the Word of God is being preached, you do not feel comfortable in your heart, and you are saying they should dismiss immediately, it goes to show that you have departed from the truth just like the Jews did.
62. “Note what they did when they departed, instead of believing what they heard, the Jews departed and went about reasoning concerning everything they heard….”
63. You see! They went about reasoning about everything they heard.
64. THERE MUST BE A SEPARATING LINE BETWEEN THE CHILDREN OF GOD AND CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL. AND THE SEPARATING LINE IS CHARACTER.
65. IF I AM FOR CHRIST AND I PATTERN AFTER HIS TEACHINGS, MY LIFE WILL NEVER GIVE GLORY TO THE DEVIL. MY LIFE WILL ALWAYS DOVETAIL WITH CHRIST. I WILL BE AN AMBASSADOR OF CHRIST WHEREVER I FIND MYSELF.
I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF. FOR IF A MAN SITS DOWN TO REASON THE WORD OF GOD, HE WILL SEE REASONS WHY HE MUST NOT BELIEVE. THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN REASON THE WORD OF GOD AND BECOME A BELIEVER.
Watch Out for those Dangerous Dogs Preached March 1997 Page 9 verse 12

REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF
God is giving us last minute deliverance. Anybody that the Word of God does not deliver from all these small small evil spirits that make us to disobey God; anybody that is not delivered at this hour is doomed.
2. The word of God sanctifies our hearts. Whatever we see happening physically, had already taken place spiritually. If the Word of God is in me because I have accepted it with Joy, it will inspire my actions.
3. My good character will always bring praise and glory to my God, and blessing to me. The cup I measure unto God is the same cup he will measure unto me.
4. A good number of us here are guilty of this. I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF. What? REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF.
5. IF THE WORD OF GOD REALLY GIVES YOU JOY, YOU WILL BE OBEYING THE WORD OF GOD WITHOUT KNOWING IT. THAT IS HOW GOD KNOWS HIS ELECT.
6. A SEED OF GOD OBEYS THE WORD OF GOD UNKNOWINGLY. EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU WILL BE DECENT AND IN ORDER BECAUSE GOD DOES HIS THINGS DECENTLY AND IN ORDER.
7. I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF, FOR IF A MAN SITS DOWN TO REASON THE WORD OF GOD, HE MUST SEE REASONS WHY HE SHOULD NOT BELIEVE. THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN REASON THE WORD OF GOD AND BECOME A BELIEVER.
8. There are lots of loopholes here and it will take a believer to say Amen to the Word. There are things here you can even doubt. You will say “Ah ah how can this be true? How can Almighty God dwell in a human being?”
9. That is why people say, “No! A human being cannot do what is written in the Bible”, for after seeing what they have heard in the Bible, they reasoned it.
10. And they came to a conclusion that it is impossible for a human being to obey it, simply because they could not believe. Once they could not believe, it could not be possible to them.”
11. To an unbeliever, everything is impossible, but to a believer everything is possible. To God, everything is possible. To a true seed of God, everything is possible.
12. No commandment from God is grievous. No commandment from God is a burden.
13. And that was why He told us ‘TAKE MY OWN YOKE’. God took away our own burdens and showed us that whenever we obey the Word of God, everything will be going smoothly for us.
14. Our faith in God will help us to overcome any hurdle or any mountain that comes our way. Nobody worshipped God without passing through many trials and temptations, but with faith and patience, we overcome. That is why, to a true seed of God, nothing is impossible to do.
15. It was faith that led Moses and the children of Israel through the Red Sea. Before you come into this Most Holy Faith, God knows your beginning and ending.
16. He knows those that will fall and those that will rise. He knows those that will stop halfway and those that will reach the end.
17. And it is not by our own doing. It is God doing everything in us. So if I get to the end, I know that it is the grace of God; the love of God and not of our own making.
18. You must take a decision, be determined and say, “Come what may, where God tells me to stand is where I will stand. Where he says I should go, I will go. Where he says I should not go, I will not go.”
19. That is why people say, “No! A human being cannot do what is written in the Bible. For after seeing what they have heard in the Bible, they reasoned it.
20. They came to a conclusion that it is impossible for a human being to obey it simply because they could not believe. Once they could not believe, it could not be possible to them.
21. When you believe, all things become possible but when you do not believe it becomes impossible to practice what you heard.
22. Let us not condemn ourselves before His presence, that we have heard the Good News, the glad tidings, [and] we echoed amen to all we heard, but if we are lost in the end, that will be very very disastrous.
23. After echoing “Amen!”, we still continue with what we have been doing; And that is the reason why God is still shouting till today that every family is full of vomit, starting from the Fathers to the least in the family.
24. We do not accept the Word of God with Joy. And that is why we cannot obey. But when we hear the Word of God and accept it with Joy, we will keep on changing for the better. You will become treasure in the eyes of God.
25. WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; page 13 verses 22-25. I have told you that we have rolled into a period where you do not expect me to be shouting at you or to be thundering or smoking.
26. Yes! the hour we are in now is not where THE SON OF MAN will be shouting “Repent or you perish!” No! We have passed that stage.
27. God has said, “Let the wicked ones continue in their wickedness. And let the obedient ones continue obeying. The Judgment is here.
28. God is now on the judgment seat, judging all the wicked actions of man; marking his own so that He will not destroy them with the wicked. That is where we are now.
29. I have told you that we have rolled into a period where you do not expect me to be shouting at you or to be thundering or smoking. No!
30. It is a moment of quietness, where everybody is expected you put on a sober appearance and certain instructions might be coming to you casually, play-play play-play and you think God is not behind it. Before you know it, you become an unbeliever in the sight of God.
31. I do not have time for jesting. Neither do I have time to play with any of you. Whatever goes out of My mouth, I mean it with every amount of seriousness.
32. At a time you think I am playing with you, that is when I tell you My mind concerning you. In a play-play way, everything that is on my mind concerning you, you will hear all. You think I am crazy, I am not crazy.
33. You will not know it until one day when I will revisit all I have told you in a play-play way. You will say, “Daddy, Ah ah! I never knew you were serious with this matter.” When you do not expect me to be serious, I am serious.”
34. This is the time for sober reflection. It is finished. We are only putting ourselves in remembrance of those truths Christ has given to us for our own good; for our eternal life.
35. Any life we are living now is the life or character that will take us into Paradise or hinder us from entering Paradise. It is either it takes you out of Paradise and you perish with the world or it brings you into Paradise.
36. DISOBEDIENCE TO GOD’S WORD WILL TAKE YOU OUT OF PARADISE, WHILE OBEDIENCE TO GOD’S WORD WILL BRING YOU INTO PARADISE.
37. God said that this a time for quietness; a time for sober reflection. Before you talk, you thing about it. Before you carry out any action, you think about it. That was why God gave us the message BE DILIGENT TO PROTECT YOUR MINDSET.
38. Indeed, God has given us everything pertaining to life and Godliness. Anybody with a wrong mindset, reasons the Word of God. He stumbles at the Word of God. The Word of God provokes that person.
39. God is saying that our spiritual life is zero. God’s nature is permanent. If you are born into christ, everything you will be doing will be according to God’s Word.
40. The devil will always attack you. The devil will always want to fight out the spirit of God in you. It is now left for you to yield to the dictates of the devil, or to the dictates of the Holy Spirit.
41. God has given us the power to overcome the devil; the power to overcome every temptation; and to overcome every trial.
42. 1st Peter 2:8 (LB) And the scriptures also say, “He is the Stone that some will stumble over, and the Rock that will make them fall.” They will stumble because they will not listen to God’s words nor obey it, and so this punishment must follow–that they will fall.
43. The Word of God is the Stone that people will stumble over and the Rock where many will fall, and it will crush them because the Word of God is heavier than the Rock.
44. You cannot be obeying the Word of God and disobeying at the same time. It is impossible. The Word of God is a very mighty Rock, and crushes any disobedient person into pieces.
45. The person will stumble because he refused to listen to the Word of God, nor obey it. A very big punishment will follow those people that are disobedient to God’s word.
46. 1st Peter 2:8 (GNB) And another scripture says, “This is the Stone that will make people stumble, the Rock that will make them fall.” They stumbled because they did not believe in the Word; such was God’s will for them.
47. They got provoked at the word of God because they never proceeded from God.
48. 1st Peter 2:8(AMP) And, a stone that will cause stumbling and a Rock that will give [men] offense; they stumble because they disobey and disbelieve [God’s] word, as those [who reject him] were destined [appointed] to do.
49. God is referring to each and every one of us in this family.
50. WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; page 21 verses 39-50 I KNOW WHO I HAVE CHOSEN, I KNOW AS MANY AS HAVE BELIEVED THE MESSAGE, AND I KNOW AS MANY AS DO NOT BELIEVE.
51. God knows those that have the desire to obey His Words. He equally knows those that do not.
52. BUT THE MOST INTERESTING THING IS THAT AS MANY AS DO NOT BELIEVE KNOW VERY WELL THAT I KNOW THEM.
53. THEY KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT THEY DO NOT BELIEVE. AS MANY AS ARE SITTING DOWN HERE, CAME HERE, ARE HERE FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER. YOUR PURPOSE FOR COMING HERE MIGHT BE DIFFERENT FROM MY OWN.
54. THAT IS WHY, WHEN WE COME HERE TO WORSHIP GOD, FEEL FREE. DO NOT CONSIDER ANYBODY BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT BROUGHT HIM HERE.
55. We are worshipping God individually. I cannot wait for my wife. She cannot wait for me. I should be seeing only myself and the Word of God. You should be seeing only yourself and the Word of God. That’s all.
56. I do not know whether the person sitting beside me just came to fulfill all righteousness, “If I do not come now, they will find out that I donot believe in what they are saying.”
57. Whatever you decide, God knows it. Whatever you are thinking in your heart, God knows it. And you also know it. Anybody that has decided to worship God in spirit and in truth, it is evident in his or her life.
58. Do not consider anybody because you do not know what brought him here. And he will conduct himself in line with what brought him here. Are you hearing what I am saying?
59. THOUGH WE CALL OURSELVES CHILDREN OF GOD BECAUSE WE SEE OURSELVES SITTING DOWN HERE, PLEASE LET IT BE KNOWN TO YOU THAT NOT ALL THAT CLAIM TO BE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE CHILDREN OF GOD. CHILDREN OF GOD ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE ARE DOERS OF THE WORD AND NOT HEARERS.
60. So, inside the church, we have hearers of the Word and doers of the Word. HEARERS OF THE WORD; I call them the wisest people in the church because they are wise in their own conceit.
61. Are you getting what I am saying? HEARERS IN THE CHURCH. you will notice them by their action; claiming they are wise, but they do not know they are foolish.
62. They think they know everything. They think they know more than every other person.
63. Hearers are only noise makers. They are not wise, but to them, they claim they are wiser than any human being. They can only hear the Word of God, but can never put it into practice.
64. Now that we are in our various homes, what every individual have been claiming to believe all these years has been made manifest.
65. God knows how to reveal the truth in a man; and also the falsehood in a man. The hypocrisy or hatred in a man, God knows how to bring them out.
66. They think they know more than every other person. When you echo one Word in the Bible, they have already shouted Amen. I know them as hearers. I did not say you should not shout Amen, I equally shout Amen.
67. HEARERS OF THE WORD. They have what I call earthly wisdom and earthly wisdom is full of strife; full of envy, full of quarrelling, full of hatred, full of division, every kind of evil. That is earthly wisdom, full of emulation.
68. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT I AM SAYING. THESE PEOPLE ARE IN THE CHURCH. AND THEY ARE IN THE MAJORITY.
LET US BE VERY, VERY CAREFUL BRETHREN. GOD HELPING US, WE MUST ACHIEVE ONE THING TODAY. SO, IF WE THINK THAT GOD IS ACCUSING US FALSELY, THAT GOD IS WICKED TO US, TURN TO THE BOOK OF JOB CHAPTER 22 FROM VERSE 2 THROUGH 5. I WANT IT IN LIVING BIBLE. SINCE WE THINK THAT WE HAVE BEEN RIGHT FOR WHICH CAUSE WE HAVE BEEN GIVING EXCUSES AND GOD IS WRONG, JOB 22:2-5. “IS MERE MAN OF ANY WORTH TO GOD? EVEN THE WISEST IS OF VALUE ONLY TO HIMSELF!. IS IT ANY PLEASURE TO THE ALMIGHTY IF YOU ARE RIGHTEOUS? WOULD IT BE ANY GAIN TO HIM IF YOU WERE PERFECT? IS IT BECAUSE YOU ARE GOOD THAT HE IS PUNISHING YOU? NOT AT ALL! IT IS BECAUSE OF YOUR WICKEDNESS! YOUR SIN ARE ENDLESS (LB)

GOD IS NOT WICKED
Hearers of the Word are those people that get offended at the Word of God. They can only hear the Word of God, but can never manifest it in their daily characters.
2. Very much pronounced among our ministers. Ministers in charge of this church take note, I say, take note. I dwell a little on this matter. I say I know them and they know very well that I know them but they are wasting their time.
3. God knows them. And they know very well that God knows them.
4. I equally told our Pastor Columbus, “Be very careful. Many of you are wasting your time. You keep on following Me, calling Me SON OF MAN [and] dancing with Me. In the end you will be disappointed.”
5. My face will not change. The same countenance. You call me a wicked man in the end. I am not wicked, but you are wicked.
6. God is not wicked but we are wicked to ourselves. We can never be wicked to God. Anybody that is wicked is wicked to himself or to herself.
7. I say, you are wicked because you subjected Me to torture by causing Me to be talking and talking for years when you are not paying me, wasting my life to make sure you are saved.
8. Can you see? This is judgment in the sense that the revealed Christ in our Age, Who is THE SON OF MAN; we do not pay Him, but he is doing everything in His powers to make sure that all is well with us; To make sure that we are partakers of this eternal life which He has come to give mankind.
9. So you see! Anybody that does not obey the teachings of Christ for his own good has already killed himself or herself.
10. But in the end, you harden your heart and say ‘Over my dead body’. If there is anyone that has love I am the one because if I am as wicked as you are I would have closed my mouth long long time ago and then restricted myself to my family.
11. But I cannot be disobedient to heavenly vision neither have I withheld anything God revealed to me for the church. So many of you are wicked. Very wicked.
12. WATCH OUT FOR DANGEROUS DOGS; page 29 from verse 1-11. That takes Me further. Do you know that there is this Message titled REWARD? I circulated it to all the churches. Many of you are coming to take your rewards.
13. Very very soon, God is going to reward the righteous. If you are among the righteous, your reward is in Paradise. If I am among the righteous, my reward is in Paradise. But to the wicked, theirs is destruction.
14. Many of you are coming to take your reward, very very good. I say, “Very very good.” But any seed a man soweth, that he must reap. So, God will not reward you from another man’s labour.
15. I am saying, when God will reward you, what will be your reward? If your obedience does not show that you are obeying God, it then means that you are not obeying Him. There must be a clear difference between Light and darkness.
16. What do you think you are remembered for in the church? Nobody is idle in the church. If God should bring the book of record and open your record in the church, what do you think will be your record in the church?
17. What is your ministry in the church? Every Message from God is God’s attribute; God’s life style which I must manifest M. U. S. T. It is a MUST that we must manifest God’s nature A-Z in order to prove that we are from God, and not merely by saying it with our mouth.
18. What is your Ministry in the church? To what event have you fulfilled your Ministry because the Bible says, “Take heed to your ministry and fulfill it.”
19. Have you seen how God is lamenting about us the Ministers. And majority of us are not ready to rise up again.
20. Take heed to your Ministry and fulfill it. Take heed to your Ministry which you received in the lord and then fulfill it. Every woman here has a ministry.
21. Yes! Every woman has her own Ministry to fulfill, every man has his own Ministry to fulfill.
22. The best and the fastest way to preach the gospel truth is through Character; my manifestation and your manifestation everywhere.
23. It is your character that will make people to say that indeed, this person is different. Your character will be different from the character of your fellow spinsters. Your character will be different from the character of your fellow bachelors.
24. But because we have not believed the truth with all our heart, mind and soul, that is why we are still misbehaving. Instead of bringing praise to God, we are bringing disgrace to Him.
25. Every woman here has a ministry. Every man here has a ministry. On that glorious morning when God will reward the Saints, when he comes to sisters’ camp Sister Phoebe will courageously come to take her reward. Susana, Rhoda and a thousand and one of them; married and unmarried.
26. They will all line up courageously and boldly because they know they have been part of the Ministry. But when you come, what will be your reward?
27. You have been a part of the Ministry. In what way? Yet you are expecting a reward. In what way? That is where many will get disappointed. I say that is where many will get disappointed because any seed a man soweth, that he must reap.
28. What does it mean? You reap where another man planted? What is your responsibility in this Ministry that you are a part of?
29. Sister Dorcas had a testimony. Did you get the message? Sister Phoebe had a testimony. Susana had a testimony. Rhoda had a testimony. Mary Magdalene had a testimony.
30. Many of the widows had testimonies. A lot of married women had testimonies that they were part and parcel of the ministry.
31. So, on that day when they are coming to take their reward, they are coming boldly. I do not think that you will line up behind them. Maybe you are expecting the reward that will be, “Get ye behind Me, for I do not know you.”
32. Any seed a man soweth, that he must reap. The Lord very soon is coming to reward us according to our labours in the vineyard. If you know you are expecting a reward here, show by raising your hand. I am expecting a reward.
33. The Psalmist said that we all will be rewarded according to our deeds and all our labours have reward attached to them, [for] both men and women here. What will you be remembered for?
34. WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; page 40 verse 8 only In every age, God has been served as individual. Yes, God is worshipped as an individual. The way I worship God is between me and God. The way you worship God is between you and God. If we all worship God rightly, He will give us the same reward.
35. In every age, God has been served as individuals. My revelation concerning Christ might differ from that of my wife. That cannot make me to compromise. That of my wife might be different from mine also, but God did not expect it to be so.
36. All of us must have the same revelation to worship God in spirit and in truth. Good testimonies will be following me everywhere. And good testimonies will also be following you everywhere.
37. That is what God needs from this family. People that will accept the Word of God with Joy. It would not be a provocation to us. We will accept it with joy and put it into practice.
38. If I am obeying, you will also be obeying, and God will be happy with us; and we will also be happy with our God. We would not look at any other family. We will only focus on what God said we should do, and do it immediately.
39. WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; Page 61 verse 52 – 54. God will save you on the basis of your sincerity. Be sincere to yourself. All I am trying to say is that God is looking for a child of God in Onitsha church. One that will gladly follow Him regardless of how people are looking at him.
40. Do not wait for anybody when it comes to putting the Word of God into practice. God must save somebody in Onitsha. God must save somebody in this family. You see! As you hear the Word of God, put it into practice. That is what God wants.
41. One that will sincerely follow him regardless of how people are looking at him or what people are saying concerning him. That is the person God is looking out for.
42. You have your mentors and your guides you are looking at, and you are patterning after them, men and women. Nobody is considering A MAN that is set before them, Christ, the Author and Finisher of our Faith. And the Bible says we ought to as personal debt, not collective debt.
43. So you must pay your own. I must pay my own. It is a MUST. The price I will pay, the price you will pay is pertaining after our God, THE SON OF MAN. That is the debt we are owing. He is our Guide. He is our example. We pattern after Him, for He is the Christ of our day.
44. So I must pay my own, you must pay your own, it is a must. If you do not want to pay your own, it is a sure sign that you are not abiding in Him. If I do not want to pay, it is a sure sign that I do not want to abide in Him. But as long as I want to abide in Him, whether I like it or not, I must do it no more, no less.
45. Finally, before we pray, WATCH OUT FOR THOSE DANGEROUS DOGS; page 108 verse 100- 116.
46. But everybody is engaged in his own, young men I am talking to you. Go to the Message titled, REWARD. Get your Ministry.
47. Let it be known to you and then make sure you fulfill it. Make sure you fulfill it. If you do not fulfill your ministry makes sure you don’t blame me in the end.
48. Any seed a man soweth, that he must reap. If you never deposited any money in Union bank, will you go there with a cheque? So, it is where you invested that you will withdraw. Let there be one thing.
49. Let there be something you will be remembered for, even if it is hospitality, meeting the needs of the Saints, giving them water to drink, giving them water to bath.
50. Let God remember you for one thing even if it is amending their clothes like Dorcas was doing. Let God remember you for one thing everybody here.
51. Why am I sounding this way? We have come to the end of the road. We are about to be rewarded according to our works. He said, “Behold I come quickly and My reward is with Me to reward every man as his works shall be.”
52. So, if there is anybody saying we will not receive a reward, that person is a liar. Surely we are going to get rewards but what is going to be your reward? I say what will be your reward?
53. Some of you are even compelled to do yourselves services by revelation. With humility, serve one another, that is no longer our gospel. Everybody is selfish.
54. Post a Brother to a Brother’s house to do a service, he will not do it as the work of God. He will do it just casually as if he is not expecting a reward from God.
55. God is going to measure the type of love that is in our midst very soon. God is going to measure love, weigh it and then reward all, men and women alike.
56. It is because of our dangerous habits that many of us have decided to abhor some of you. If a brother or sister decides and says, “Nobody will come to my house again or live with me”, it is because of your dangerous habits. If you are children of God, real children of God, I think your sister would cherish you and your brother will cherish you.
57. Hear me very well, I believe with all my heart that we are a family. That thing that will make my sister to abhor me, I say that thing that is in me that will make my sister to avoid me or to say instead of me to live with her in the house, I will prefer to live with a mad person, the thing has tampered with our record whether we like it or not.
58. For the Bible says it is a pleasant thing for Brethen to live together in harmony, in love. but why can’t we dwell together in harmony, in love?’
59. The Bible said it and the Almighty God in our midst confirmed it. It is a thing of joy for Brethren to live together in harmony and in love.
60. Wherever there is Love, there must be peace there also. The same spirit of God will be in the Father, mother and children. Everyone of us must strive to do those things that will please God.
61. For the Bible says, it is a pleasant thing for brethren to dwell together in harmony, in love. But why can’t we dwell together in Love and yet we are preaching love and the headstone.
62. And that headstone said, “Show love to one another. By so doing, people will know you are my disciples indeed.”
63. Show love to one another. We should be our brother’s keeper; our sister’s keeper. People around us will be amazed at the type of love we share among ourselves.
64. If I love myself and I do not love my brother, love is not perfect yet. If I hate my brother or my sister, I am a murderer and no murderer will inherit the Kingdom of God.
65. But what is making me to hate you? But what is making me to hate you? I am saying that there are wicked dogs among us. These wicked dogs, another name I will use for them or call them is fault finders. I say they are fault finders.
66. They do not go to their brothers or sisters to have fellowship at peace. They go there to find faults. Their eyes flickering from window to pillar; from pillar to toilet, from toilet to corridor, from corridor to bathroom, all trying to find faults.
67. If I go to my brother’s house and notice that that place is not tidy enough to my taste, two things are there; [1] I will set an example or [2] call my brother’s attention to it. All in love because that family is a part of my family.
68. But if I see it and go out and say, “Ah ah! Every day by day we are preaching cleanliness for the children of God, I went to brother’s house and it was like a pig’s house.
69. God will ask you, “What did you do when you found out that your brother’s house was like a pig’s house? Did you help? Can’t you help and tidy it up or show your brother what he should have done or point his attention to it reminding him of our doctrine?”
70. You see! The reason why we cannot live together? Fault finding leads to gossiping. I say, “Fault finding leads to gossiping and gossiping has a partner. A sure sign that you are harboring something.”
71. So God has told us that we are blessed people, if the Word of God gives us joy and we put what we have heard into practice. Cursed is he who the Word of God provokes instead of giving him joy.
72. And because he is already provoked at the Word of God, he can never obey the Word. And the blessing that follow that obedience to God will never follow him.
73. So we give God the glory, for giving us the grace to have fellowship with him tonight. The Word of God has already sanctified our hearts. All we have to do is to put all we have heard into practice.
74. Let us pray
PRAYER
Our hearts are filled with joy for all the good things you have done in all our lives. And we believe you will keep doing them till eternity.
2. Receive all the glory and honour, our LORD Son of Man. You have taught us things that we will do and it will attract your blessings to us; and things we will do and it will attract your punishment and curse on us.
3. Thank you Lord for blessings our souls today, and our souls will remain blessed through Peter the Christ our LORD, Amen.
4. Help us O LORD that your Words which we have hear will no longer provoke us O Lord, but give us joy no matter the way it comes; whether through rebuke or any form.
5. The type of love you are showering upon us is the type of love that exists between a mother and her children. The devil is governing the whole world, but you alone, the Almighty God is governing the Bride.
6. We belong to you and you alone. You have put us in remembrance of your word tonight, may we never forget them through Peter the Christ our Lord, Amen.
7. Protect us this night O Lord so that we will sleep and wake up in sound health. As we patiently wait for that faithful day O Lord, may you uphold us till the end so that we will not deviate from the righteous path.
8. Any plans of the enemies to make us go contrary to the teachings you have given us so that we will provoke you to wrath, we bring all of them to none effect in the mighty name of Peter the Christ, Amen.
9. In every trials and temptations that come our way, Lord make us victorious and overcomers. Help us O LORD to fulfill your righteous demands till eternity in the mighty name of Peter the Christ, Amen.
10. Receive all the glory, receive all the praise, for this and more we pray in the mighty name of Peter the Christ, Amen.
