PREACHED ON 30TH JUNE, 2019. AT THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD, ONITSHA BY APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN Almighty Allah
If there is anything you want to do and it does not agree with the word, it is because there is no truth in that thing. If your action does not agree with the revealed word of god to you, Christ is not in your action, Christ is not in your reasoning and Christ is not in your plan. The word of god in you lifts up the standard in your heart and that act becomes your principle of life. But where the word of god is not in your heart, hear me very well, you will live a life without a standard. A life without standard is a life without principle. You are prone to attack from within and without. You are not insulated from harm by day or by night. You are running the greatest risk for your life will never be secured.

LET THE WORD OF GOD DWELL IN YOU RICHLY
I know you are happy now. But you only made a noise. I could not hear praises. I only heard a great noise. There was no atom of spirituality in what you were doing. I just saw a display of youthful energy.
2. So, you had better rethink. Do not dissipate your energy in this kind of worship. If you do not know how to praise God, I will teach you. And that is, if I have not been teaching. The Cloud is here.
3. Read the Book of Colossians chapter 3 verse 16 in Living Bible or King James
4. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly IN ALL WISDOM;…IF THE WORD OF GOD IS DWELLING IN YOU RICHLY, IT WILL REFLECT IN YOUR PRAISES.
5. IN THE SAME WAY, THE WORD OF GOD WHICH IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD SHOULD DWELL IN YOU ABUNDANTLY, HELPING YOU TO PRAY.
6. Often times, you may not know how to pray and what to ask for, but the spirit will now take over, presenting your case to God as it should.
7. In the same way, the spirit will lead in your praises because God inhabits in the praises of his saints. God dwells in the praises of His saints. God sings, Jesus as God sang a hymn and then prayed with the disciples and then preached the Word. [Mark 14:26, Matthew 26:30]
8. The Psalmist taught us how to sing praises. Read that place. Let the word of God dwell in you richly.
9. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, … And in spiritual songs.
10. …singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. What?
11. Singing with praise in your heart to your Lord. KJV
12. Let the word [spoken by] Christ (the Messiah) have its home [in your hearts and minds]… Have what?
13. …ITS HOME IN YOUR HEART… Its abode; its dwelling place in your heart and in your mind
14. …and dwell in you in [all its] richness, as you teach and admonish and train one another in all insight and intelligence and wisdom [in spiritual things, and as you sing] psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, making melody to God with [His] grace in your hearts. AMP
15. Remember what Christ taught, and let his words enrich your lives and make you wise; teach them to each other and sing them out in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing to the Lord with thankful hearts. LB
16. You see! When you come here to praise God, meditate very well. Sing something that will minister grace. Sing spiritually. Do not sing carnally. When you sing carnally, you make this place a block rosary centre.
17. When you are singing in the spirit, someone somewhere will be drawn to the song, but you would not know. To sing in the spirit makes impact in the hearts of the believers. In psalms, in spiritual songs, in hymns. We have too many hymns.
18. Remember, not all songs are spiritual. Not all songs are spiritual. If you want to do physical exercise here, I am not against it, but let it not be today.
19. Find a day, and then when you finish your work, you can erect this pulpit and break it while beating it. Jump and then sing in such a way that adults like us will keep quiet, for we cannot join you.
Who is in doubt that the Bridal Faith is the Congregation of God’s people? Has the Lord not confirmed it? That is why the Cloud became our canopy. It is our refuge. It is our defense. It is our salvation because it is nothing but God Himself. Anybody that is running away from the Cloud, where do you think that he is heading to? He is heading to eternal destruction because he is fleeing from the presence of the Lord. You see why I brag so much? This is My Authority where I stand and command you to get out if I wish. This is why I do not beg any flesh because I know, whether you like it or not, every flesh must come to Me; every tongue must confess that I am He.

IN THE END, WE SHALL SPEAK ONE LANGUAGE [1]
I saw a breaking news from Israel. I know many saw it also. A Rabbi in Israel posted it and it says, “In the end, the whole world that will be saved by Christ will speak one Language. And that language will be HEBREW.”
2. He said, “Everyone will study Hebrew, and with one language they will collectively worship Jehovah.”
3. That goes to show that language variations and differentiations have caused great problems.
4. And on that day when salvation shall be made complete, you will know that Scripture foretold the truth that there would not be any Jew. No gentile. No barbarian. No Greek. No Nigerian. All shall be one. One God, one language, one nation.
5. Remember that as many as are Christ’s are numbered in the common wealth of Israel. True or false? You are not an Israelite because you are born with the Jews.
6. So you are spiritual Israelites, for you obey God, not in the flesh, but in the spirit. You do not observe the rules of the flesh. You observe the rules of the spirit.
7. And at the end, the same Messiah who is dwelling with you, will arrive there. When He must have finished with you, He will arrive there.
8. What is the uniting point when all the enemies of God must have been subdued? Righteousness will reign. Christ will be the overall Ruler and Head of the entire world. You will never hear Nigeria, America, this and that.
9. The entire world will be one as it was in the beginning. Remember there was no gentile and there was no Jew. In the days of Noah, Noah ran a united one world, that was why to destroy that one world was very easy.
10. God found that one world guilty of unbelief. Only one man was found to be righteous, and that was Noah. God used Noah and his family to judge and condemn the entire world.
11. Those that survived came up with an idea borne out of fear, to erect a tower, peradventure there will be another flood. They decided to do that, and they were having one language.
12. For that was the new world. There was no other place any human being could walk out. So that small world was compressed into a small building, The tower of Babel. That is the second world.
13. The whole human race was accommodated in that one big structure where there was no division of any sort, for they were speaking the same language and minding the same thing.
14. The Bible said they were so fused in their act, even in their motive that it would be impossible to stop them from achieving it. [Genesis 11:5 – 6]
15. See how strong that unity was. And God said he would not allow them to remain like that because if they should remain like that, the world would not be replenished with human beings. He decided to scatter them, created barrier using language differences. And from there the human beings multiplied again all over the earth. [Genesis 11:7 – 9]
16. From that day till now, we are still the same world with many languages. The same world with many nations, the same world with many cultural barriers, traditional barriers yet the same world.
17. The Almighty God owns the world. Why are we having too many earthquakes? It is because of the disobedience to the will of God. Some are going to the left, some to the right, some at the center.
18. Now, the Rabbi said, “In the end, when God must have eradicated all evil men and women from the surface of the earth, the redeemed of the earth shall be fused together as one nation and that will be the nation of God. They will speak one language and not two. And that language must be Hebrew.
19. Why must it be Hebrew and not Greek? Why will it not be Igbo, not Yoruba, not English language, but Hebrew?
20. I believe it, not because the man posted it. I believe it because the seventh generation prophet Enoch also foretold it.
21. He said, “In the end, the redeemed, the Elect shall speak one language and their character will be one.” He called it life of the Elect or Elect life.
22. It is not an elect’s life to be sleeping in the beer parlour until the person is beheaded there. What we are witnessing among us does not depict elect life. If this is what you call elect life, I better take My family and go away.
23. I told the Elders in my house that from now, I will be moving whole families away from the Faith. Holistically! A to Z! This is because if a man is found in evil and it is traced that the wife restrained him not, the family must leave us.
24. Let Me know those I am harbouring. I can never harbour somebody I cannot account for his life. Anybody who is not worthy of my confidence in this Faith, should begin now to go away.
25. It is better you go away than to receive a horrible letter from Me written by My hand because it endureth to all eternity, and I cannot cancel anything from it.
26. I am putting Myself together and I believe you are equally putting yourselves together. Go to the book of Zephaniah chapter 3. Let us read it in the Living Bible to see what God has promised us, who are the real Israeli’s, who serve God, not by the law, but by the spirit of the law, for the letter killeth.
27. Look at the promise of God there. We will finish it if it is possible. Zephaniah chapter 3 from verse 1, that is the end-time prophet. He saw the end. I have not forgotten where I stopped in my Teaching. I am coming back with it.
28. And I said I must make another announcement before I will continue. So open your ears, lift up your eyes and see whether you can recognize the elect one.
29. Zephaniah 3 from verse 1. Living Bible.1Woe to filthy, sinful Jerusalem, city of violence and crime. 2In her pride she won’t listen even to the voice of God. No one can tell her anything; she refuses all correction.
30. She refuses all corrections. Jerusalem is known for that. The City of violence. The city of stubborn people.
31. But the house of God, God’s own true Jerusalem, heavenly Jerusalem is the city of truth. Violent people can never find a place there. Stubborn people have no place there.
32. So when you are answering Jerusalem, think properly. Maybe you are borrowing a cue from the physical Jerusalem that has no hope of salvation from God for now.
33. Even if they are as many as sand at the ocean shore, only a remnant shall be saved. Lift up your eyes. See whether you can recognize the elect one.
34. 1Woe to filthy, sinful Jerusalem, city of violence and crime. 2In her pride she won’t listen even to the voice of God. No one can tell her anything; she refuses all correction. She does not trust the Lord nor seek for God.3Her leaders are like roaring lions hunting for their victims—out for everything that they can get. Her judges are like ravenous wolves at evening time, who by dawn have left no trace of their prey.4Her “prophets” are liars seeking their own gain; her priests defile the Temple by their disobedience to God’s laws.5But the Lord is there within the city,…
35. Yet, they were not afraid of all those things they were doing. The Lord never kept quiet in Jerusalem. The people continued holding their heads high, with their necks very stiff.
36. 5But the Lord is there within the city, and he does no wrong. Day by day his justice is more evident, but no one heeds—the wicked know no shame.
37. The wicked know no shame. Who is the wicked? The disobedient one. He is never ashamed of his deeds.
38. 6“I have cut off many nations, laying them waste to their farthest borders; I have left their streets in silent ruin and their cities deserted without a single survivor to remember what happened.
39. 7I thought, ‘Surely they will listen to me now—surely they will heed my warnings, so that I’ll not need to strike again.’ But no; however much I punish them, they continue all their evil ways from dawn to dusk and dusk to dawn.”
40. 8But the Lord says, “Be patient; the time is coming soon…
41. Be patient, the time is coming soon when I will gather all the nations of the earth, including Nigeria, for there is no nation that has not been privileged to hear the voice of God.
42. 8But the Lord says, “Be patient; the time is coming soon when I will stand up and accuse these evil nations. For it is my decision to gather together the kingdoms of the earth and pour out my fiercest anger and wrath upon them.
43. It is what?For it is my decision to gather all the nations of the earth and pour out my fiercest anger, fury, wrath and indignation. Who will escape?
44. All the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.9“At that time I will change the speech of my returning people to pure Hebrew …
45. At that time I will do what?
46. …I will change the speech of my returning people to pure Hebrew SO THAT ALL CAN WORSHIP THE LORD TOGETHER.
47. There is something in Hebrew. I told you that long ago, and I keep on repeating it. We will know who is deceiving who when we get to the end. Remember it is only in returning and waiting shall you be saved.
48. And all that will return to the Lord and wait on His revealed Word of promise, whether they be Americans or Russians or whether they are coming from the east or west, north or south, they will be one.
49. God will change their languages in a twinkling of an eye. I will speak, a Russian will hear Me and a Malaysian will hear Me. The world will come back to status quo ante[as it was in the beginning].
However, He has now decided that you that received the promise will receive the fulfillment because I am still here. But before now, it has not been so. Remember that we are benefitting from all that was promised Abraham. Abraham never benefitted…. I AM LEADING YOU IN LOVE. I WANT YOU TO WORK WITH ME IN LOVE. And when you work with one another in love, leadership is made easy. From Love, all of us will enter into “immortality”

IN THE END, WE SHALL SPEAK ONE LANGUAGE [2]
If you go to Genesis chapter 11 verse 1, the whole world was one with one language. Can somebody read it? AND THE WHOLE EARTH WAS OF ONE LANGUAGE, AND OF ONE SPEECH. Amen! You see the beginning. As it was in the beginning so shall it be in the end.
2. The whole earth was what? AND THE WHOLE EARTH WAS OF ONE LANGUAGE, AND OF ONE SPEECH. Not two speeches.
3. Restoration is incomplete; salvation is incomplete until we come to this point. As we took off, that is where God is waiting for us.
4. As for the whole earth, God has taken a decision to gather, to pour out His fury, His anger, His wrath, His indignation and wipe off all the wicked men.
5. Then the survivors who will return to the Lord, shall be gathered together as one nation and their language shall be one. What will be the language? Hebrew. Why? God is a Hebrew.
6. He is gathering them to Himself, and they will be speaking the language of God. Using that language, the entire redeemed of the earth will worship God together in one language as it was in the beginning.
7. When we get there, you will know that this is our destination point. And all these will take place where? In the Garden of Eden.
8. Nobody will misunderstand his brother again. It is only there and then that you will see what I call perfect worship. PERFECT WORSHIP.
9. 9“At that time I will change the speech of my returning people to pure Hebrew so that all can worship the Lord together. 10My scattered people who live in the Sudan, beyond the rivers of Ethiopia,…
10. Those who live far beyond the rivers of what? …Ethiopia,… Ethiopia is in Africa o. Those who live far beyond, including Nigeria.
11. 10My scattered people who live in the Sudan, beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, will come with their offerings, asking me to be their God again.
12. They will come with what? …their offerings, asking me to be their God again. 11And then you will no longer need to be ashamed of yourselves, for you will no longer be rebels against me.
13. You will no longer be rebels against Me. That is the redeemed. Rebellion has been overthrown and crushed. Unbelief!Overthrown and crushed. Only in the righteous.
14. I will remove all your proud and arrogant people from among you;…I will do what? …remove all your proud and arrogant people from among you;…What?
15. I will remove all your proud and arrogant people from among you;there will be no pride or haughtiness on my holy mountain.
16. There will be no what? …pride or haughtiness… On what? …on my holy mountain.
17. WHO IS THE ONE THAT IS QUALIFIED TO BE WITH GOD ON HIS HOLY MOUNTAIN? WHO IS THE ONE THAT IS ADEQUATE TO BE WITH GOD ON HIS HOLY MOUNTAIN? WHO WILL DWELL WITH HIM ON HIS HOLY MOUNTAIN? THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN MADE PURE BY THE WORD OF GOD.
18. 12Those who are left will be the poor and the humble, and they will trust in the name of the Lord.13They will not be sinners, full of lies and deceit.
19. They will live quietly, in peace, and lie down in safety,…Amen.…and no one will make them afraid.”14Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
20. 15For the Lord will remove his hand of judgment and disperse the armies of your enemy. And the Lord himself, the King of Israel, will live among you! At last your troubles will be over—you need fear no more.
21. 16On that day the announcement to Jerusalem will be, “Cheer up, don’t be afraid. 17-18For the Lord your God has arrived to live among you…
22. CHEER UP! DO NOT BE AFRAID, FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS ARRIVED TO LIVE AMONG YOU. ARRIVE FROM WHERE? FROM WHEREVER HE MIGHT BE HIDING.
23. I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WILL NEVER ENTER THERE WITHOUT THEM. WE ARE GOING IN AT THE SAME TIME. AND THERE IS NO OTHER PERSON OR MESSAGE EXCEPT THIS ONE.
24. When you have believed what they believed, and they have believed what you believe, are you not all having one speech and one language? We shall all be speaking the same thing, minding the same thing.
25. There will not be variations, even in our judgments. The way I see things will be the way you see things. Then, we will have the mind of God. It is only there and then that our worship will be made acceptable unto him.
26. Do you think it is going to be a miracle that will happen there? The miracle is taking place now. If you are a believer here, you cannot be an unbeliever there. Whatever you are now is what you will be.
27. So, your journey starts here, either to eternal hellfire or to eternal life in Paradise with God. Remember! There, you will know who THE SON OF MAN fully is, for you will eat and drink with him.
28. You will lie down with him, get up with him in the morning and praise God together. He will not be in heaven and you will be in hell.
29. All of us will be in the same gathering, having the same experience, eating the same food, singing the same song, worshipping the same God, in the same language.
30. So, Son of Man is not exempted. After all he is the one that has been sent to come and teach and to bring you home.
31. 16On that day the announcement to Jerusalem will be, “Cheer up, don’t be afraid. 17-18For the Lord your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty Saviour… He is a Mighty Saviour
32. He will give you victory. He will rejoice over you with great gladness; he will love you and not accuse you.” Is that a joyous choir I hear? No, it is the Lord himself exulting over you in happy song.
33. It is The Lord Himself exalting himself over you with happy songs. So, God can sing song. He sings. There also, He will be singing.
34. Whatever you are, that is what you are going to be there, if you happen to be numbered among the redeemed of the earth, among the survivors of the wrath, fury and the indignation of God that is going to be poured upon all mankind.
35. Enoch saw it that way, that people in faraway countries came, who never believed THE SON OF MAN. And when the wrath came, they said, “Give us a little moment of respite and we will worship you.”
36. They began to sing praises, pouring encomiums on Him, calling Him King of kings and everything, acknowledging that they were facing the wrath of God because they did not believe in Him, and that now, they have believed.
37. It said, “He pressured them out of His sight, “Get away from my sight. When I was talking to you, were you not paying deaf ears? Now calamity has come, why running to Me”” [THE ETHIOPIC BOOK OF ENOCH; Chapter 62 verse 8 – 12]
38. It is documented in the book of Romans, “Whosoever that calls upon His name shall be saved on that day.” [Romans 10:13 Also Joel 2:32 and Acts 2:21]
39. How can you call upon the Name of the Man whom you do not believe, and whom you have not even accepted as God? Then trouble has come, and you now run to Him as God.
40. Deacon Sunday Ugoji, you heard this statement yesterday and I shared testimonies which you know. You know them. You know they are true testimonies, making comparisons between believing and unbelieving people. Good!
41. So that is the much I want to share here. AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING, THAT IS HOW IT WILL BE IN THE END. ONE GOD, ONE WORLD, ONE LANGUAGE.
42. THE CENTER OF WORSHIP WILL REMAIN JERUSALEM. TO GOD BE THE GLORY. WHAT WILL BE THE LANGUAGE? HEBREW.
43. YOU DO NOT NEED TO STUDY OR LEARN IT. ANY DAY THE SON OF MAN SPEAKS HEBREW, ALL OF YOU WILL SPEAK HEBREW.
44. FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST, IN THAT TWINKLING OF AN EYE, YOU WILL BE TOTALLY TRANSFORMED, AND EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU TOTALLY TRANSFORMED, INCLUDING YOUR LANGUAGE.
45. And then the heathens who are destined to perdition can no longer understand you.
46. Then what about the heathens who will be in our midst that time? They will be thinking we are speaking in tongues. Hallelujah.
47. That is why I have told you that you do not need to panic. You must know everything pertaining to the end as we approach the end, so that when it comes to your corner, you will know that you have benefited from it.
48. Nobody will blame Brother or Sister on that day, “This is the man that made me not to go in. This is the man that hindered me” No! No! No! You are the one that will hinder yourself. You are the one that will also help yourself.
49. This is the hour. Now the light is still shining, make use of this light. If you do not make use of it and darkness comes, truly speaking, you must grope in the dark.
50. On this note I say thank you all. Let me use this opportunity to say hearty,hearty congratulations to our children that served the nation under the Youth Service Scheme.
51. They passed out last week, with no evil reports whatsoever. We say hearty, hearty congratulations to all of you, both those that are here and those that are not here.
52. There are too many families that lost their own members. But from the beginning till now, we have been receiving our own children just the same way they served. It is the Lord’s doing and we give Him the whole glory. Amen.
THE SON OF MAN IS NOT EVEN INTERESTED IN YOUR HUMAN PLAN, BUT WHEN YOUR HUMAN PLAN PUTS YOU INTO TROUBLE, DO NOT COME TO HIM. THERE IS NOTHING YOU ARE PLANNING WHICH I, THE SON OF MAN, APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA DO NOT KNOW. THERE IS NOTHING YOU HAVE DONE WHICH I DO NOT KNOW AND THE WAY YOU HAVE DONE IT. THAT I HAVE ALLOWED YOU TIME IS BECAUSE I HAVE DECIDED TO DO SO.
BE DILIGENT TO PROTECT YOUR MINDSET (EXPLAINED); preached on 18th March, 2012 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 108 vs. 37 – 38

THIS FAITH IS “THE SON OF MAN”
Before I go back to My seat, I wish to stress it that it is unfortunate, inspite of all the announcements, that the brother who is collecting money for the burial, from what he told Me this morning, his purse is still empty.
2. From all the Local Assemblies, he told Me he has only collected sixty-four thousand naira [₦64,000.00]. I do not need to talk again there.
3. We buried Sister Eunice Abu in Kaduna last week Tuesday. And the testimony is very, very edifying. The testimony is very much edifying.
4. This is because on the day of the burial, there was a very sad development in Esen Kaduna state. The Fulani herdsmen attacked Esen community killing and burning down houses. The DPO deployed the task force made up of Army and police to go and quell the riot.
5. Unfortunately, they lost one ASP [Assistant Superintendent of Police] in the hands of the Fulani herdsmen. So the security was no longer there.
6. Because our Brethren were carrying the corpse from National Hospital, Asokoro, Abuja to Esen, they received a phone call from Brethren at Esen, telling them to halt at Akwanga.
7. They were there for some time in Kaduna state. Akwanga is another dangerous spot also. And they were going without any police security or escort. God was the one escorting.
8. After sometime, they got the information that the road was a little safe. They called the DPO, the same man who gave them security when they buried late Papa Abu.
9. They pleaded with him to send his officers and men for their rescue. The DPO told them clearly that their lives were in their hands, and that he was not sending any.
10. He told them that he lost a superior officer in the clash that same morning and that they should arrange for the local vigilante. There was no way that could be possible.
11. So, they reasoned together among themselves and prayed. They called My line over and over, but it was out of reach.
12. Finally, they bound themselves together trusting God who told them to go and also gave them the preacher, for they had selected one who would preach, but the Pastor asked Me of My choice.
13. I gave him My own choice to be Pastor Abel of Zonkwa instead of Bishop David. They accepted him because I know who Pastor Abel is. He is my friend.
14. I know how he crossed river Kaduna. I know how he lost his two sons in less than ten minutes. His two sons got drowned in his presence in the same river Kaduna.
15. He was there watching them, and his faith never shook till today. Rather events made his faith stronger than ever.
16. If it were some people, they would have blasphemed God because of their own mistake, for he was the one to be blamed. He accepted the blame.
17. So, they eventually got to Esen without any security. The entire community was tensed up with fear. The agitating sides were threatening hell. The traditional ruler also came, but there was nothing they could do.
18. Brethren took off with their Fellowship, praising God in their own way and trusting God to keep their lives. Brethren, God is with us. I am not exaggerating because they will come here and testify.
19. They called Me immediately from there and I told them to cheer up that God is in control. There was no rain on the land, no dew. They went into praises.
20. Pastor Abel mounted the pulpit using Hausa language. He also used pidgin English, and then corrected all the mistakes of Apostle Kelechi who remained talking until people started walking away from them.
21. He was not discerning whether they were paying attention or not. I got offended when I watched that video. Immediately he came down from the pulpit, they just interned the corpse and then went away.
22. For he remained in the pulpit for almost two hours talking to people who were not paying attention and even preaching mystery.
23. But Pastor Abel corrected everything this time using Hausa language and Pidgin English. Then it got to a point being an ex-Muslim and present Muslim.
24. I will tell you what I mean. He [Pastor Abel] belonged to the Polytheist section of the Muslims. He belonged to the Shiite Muslims before he embraced this Faith. And our Faith belongs to Sunni Muslim. We are Monotheist. We believe in one Allah, not three, not four and not five. One God.
25. So, he opened the Holy Quran, being a Muslim scholar. He started reading the Quran and then brought out Islamic connection to THE SON OF MAN.
26. He brought out the Bible. He was reading the Bible; he was reading the Quran, and he was reading the Message. There was jubilation everywhere. The people started shouting, Yaayi! Gaskiya! (meaning; exactly, Pure Truth). Yaayi! Gaskiya!
27. Then, he united everybody to one Allah. Look at the Lord’s doing. Little did they know that the Muslims in Esen are Sunni Muslims and not Shiites? It was when he was rounding off that the traditional ruler spoke in their language.
28. They never knew that the people that made up the crowd who were jubilating [were wearing Caftan and their caps]were the dreaded herdsmen, having their arms inside the caftan and followed them from the place they entered that route.
29. All of them sat down, and they danced together. When they were singing praises in Hausa, they joined. When they listened and listened, and the traditional ruler finished, their leader came up, introduced himself and his group and said in pidgin English, “You see all those bikes that are there? They belong to our men.”
30. He pulled the caftan, and all of them were using small axe, dagger and every kind of weapon with beads they tied round their waist. They said that they came for destruction, but what they saw marvelled them.
31. They are coming down. If not for my trip, they would have been here.
32. Both the opposing side and the agitating side, all of them now became one by the Message. They were shouting [in pidgin English]“These people are correct people. They are the correct one. They are the correct one. They are the correct one.” They joined hands in sharing the food.
33. They said they were waiting to see whether there will be anything vigilante or police or army. Then after the whole thing, Brethren wanted to dismantle the canopies. They said no. They used their hands and dismantled everything.
34. That is not all. These people volunteered to give escort to those that were going back to Abuja, Kaduna and other places with motorcycles.
35. They said [in pidgin English], “Do not fear. We will take you to Akwanga. All of us!” They went in front, while some stood behind, and the Brethren in the middle. They guarded the vehicles up to Akwanga and wished them well.
36. Brethren, when Pastor Mike was giving Me this testimony, I had a lot of Brethren there. They heard it from the phone. I chilled.
37. No sooner he dropped the phone than Bro Abu called from Esen with the same testimony. In the evening hours, Pastor Abel called again. All the same testimony.
38. Bro Friday, the Permanent Secretary equally called. He said, “Daddy, great and marvellous things took place. The omnipotence of God was seen, felt and enjoyed.”
39. Bro Abu said that the D.P.O. later called him to know what happened. He [Abu] said, “My God gave me His angels to protect me and my people, and to give us escort.”
40. Brethren we have come to the end of all things. See how God is uniting his people, disarming the enemies and turning their hearts to our favour. People that came to destroy were now the people helping us.
41. The same thing we witnessed at Mbaise. At Mbaise, I do not need to share the testimony. It will take people that went with Me to share that testimony. I was astonished at what I saw. Up till now, it is a wonder.
42. My wife said she marvelled. I have never seen the type of victory God gave us over the whole community, from the least to the greatest. And the testimony is there. Even when we were leaving, everybody was appreciating our presence and the presence of our Brethren. People continued to talk about our Brethren.
43. You see why I am against anybody who is causing the name of this Faith to be blasphemed. The name of this Faith is THE SON OF MAN. Do you know that in my community that I have no other name than THE SON OF MAN?
44. Elder Loveday was there with Deacon Sam. I was busy somewhere and the announcer was calling Me.
45. They rushed down to get Me, “Sir, we are rushing down. The announcer was calling THE SON OF MAN to come and receive the corpse of his uncle’s wife, and that He is the one they will give it to” And this is the truth because I own that corpse.
46. Among all the elders in that kindred, that corpse is My direct responsibility. The surviving son could not touch that corpse. It was handed over to Me according to the rule because the late husband was my late father’s senior brother from the same womb.
47. So, I happen to be the oldest from that womb also. According to the rule the casket was handed over to Me. I then handed it over to the eldest man in the kindred who opened it.
48. So we had a nice time and when I read the Book of Enoch, he said, “In His right time, His name shall be raised to The Son of Man.” [Ethiopic Book of Enoch 70:1]
49. If you go to My hometown now, only a pocket of individuals call Me “Sunday”. The rest address Me as THE SON OF MAN.
50. What am I saying? The Name of this Faith is THE SON OF MAN because God has transferred you from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of his dear Son [Colossians 1:13] where you now have the privilege to call him Abba Father [Romans 8:15].
51. Who is that privileged Son? He that was there with the Father, The Ancient of Days, The Head of the Spirits even when the world was without form; until somebody was directed to go and behold THAT SON OF MAN.
52. Because he [Enoch] was curious to know about that Man, He [the angel] said “He is that Son that was promised. Look at him there.” [Ethiopic Book of Enoch 46:2 – 3]
53. I give God the praise who has helped Me to gather the whole Elect together worldwide. And I have given them their names. They know their names. If you do not know your name, strive until you know your name. Thank you.
54. I invite Evangelist Ben Okezue to the pulpit. Do you know your name? The scripture said that every family in heaven and on earth that belongs to God should be named after what? Christ, the Word of God. [Colossians 3:14 – 15 NIV, AMP]
55. And the Bride is clothed from head to toe with what? The Word of God. And the name is what? The Elect Lady. The Word of God. If that Church is the Elect Lady, The Son of Man is the Elect One.
56. Look up and behold! See whether you can recognize the Elect One. If the Elect Lady is the Bride, where is the Bridegroom?
