NO SECOND CHANCE Vol 1 PREACHED ON SUNDAY, 26TH JULY 2020 AT THE BRIDAL LODGE, NSUGBE BY EVANGELIST CHUKWUBUIKEM ODOEMENA MODERATED BY APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN
…. Whosoever that abides in the Lord, the same will live forever with Him. There, you get abundant life, abundant happiness, abundant joy, abundant pleasure, all these things are sufficient in Christ. Thus, let Christ be your sufficiency. Christ is my sufficiency. He is sufficient to me. If Christ is not sufficient for you, you have a problem you cannot solve. If you do not know
what to do, come to God. You do not know whether to go left or right, come to God. For without Him you have no helper.
Let Christ Be Your Sufficiency preached 23rd October, 2011; page 12:9-10

THE LAST-MINUTE GRACE FROM GOD
You are blessed Brethren. Brethren, it is indeed a privilege to worship God. Look at the magnitude of love which we are enjoying. A privilege! A rare opportunity. If we abuse this opportunity, there is NO SECOND CHANCE again.
2. In an examination in a school, if you fail the course, you carry it over to the next year or to the next level. You will re-write it. But in this God’s examination, it is either you pass or you fail. NO SECOND CHANCE. No carry over, no rewriting. If you pass, you have passed. If you fail, you have failed.
3. What God is giving to us now is the last minute grace. The last minute love is what is projecting now in the Bride of Christ. In every family in this Faith, the last grace is what is projecting today.
4. SOM: For nothing is left.
5. Nothing again is left in God’s program if not the wrapping up of all things. Nothing is left again.
6. SOM: Except the destruction of the world.
7. Yes Sir! And it is very sad to know that there are some people [there are some families] on whom the hand of God has rested for destruction, and they know it not.
8. Some know it, but they do not want to do anything about it. They feel comfortable.
9. SOM: They say, “He is God, let Him do as He wishes.” And God will do as He wishes.
10. 17“What was it he said to you?” Eli asked. “Do not hide it from me. May God deal with you, be it ever so severely, if you hide from me anything he told you.”
11. 18So Samuel told him everything, hiding nothing from him. THEN ELI SAID, “HE IS THE LORD; LET HIM DO WHAT IS GOOD IN HIS EYES.” [1 Samuel 3:18 NIV]
12. And this is the period of time where we should ponder over the Word of God twenty-four hours of the day, seeing that this is a period of diverse temptations.
13. God said that these days, it is very hard for an Elect to hold on to his confession in Christ for twenty-four hours.
14. Many things can delude you. Many things can take you out of Christ. In twenty-four hours, it is very hard for you to hold on to the profession of your Faith without wavering.
15. The devil is fighting his last battle. Where? In the Elect. There are people he (devil) has already taken as his own, there is no need fighting them.
16. The people he is fighting now to take are the Elect of God, whom God has chosen, and who are still alive here on earth, both physically and spiritually. They are still alive.
17. They are the ones he is fighting tooth and nail to capture. Because to him, it is going to be his biggest achievement. To the world, he knows they are his.
18. 19We know that we are children of God, and that THE WHOLE WORLD IS UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE EVIL ONE. [1 John 5:19 NIV]
19. But to that Elect of God, who will stray away and will not come back again, to the devil, it is his greatest achievement.
20. SOM: Supreme achievement of the devil. It is recorded, whenever he has trapped a seed of God [a daughter of God or a son of God]. Did you get the Message? Amen.
21. It is like a nonentity on the street that seduces the daughter of the King of their community. To him, it is his supreme achievement.
22. When the heathens raped the daughter of Jacob, a man of God, they regarded it as their supreme achievement. Is it not true? Good!
23. So, at any point in time you see yourself straying away, just know that you are giving the devil the glory. You are no longer giving God the glory. It is the devil that is now taking that glory that he has succeeded in capturing a seed of God.
24. Then after seeing all these things, you will be the biggest fool to roll into that error again. This hour calls for taking the Word of God as our utmost delight. That is what the hour calls for.
25. Taking this Word which we are hearing as our utmost delight, because when you do not delight in it, the devil will use anything at all to tempt you away. The devil can even use the things you see or the things you hear to tempt your soul away.
26. There was a time the Almighty God was talking to us, saying that a time is coming when the dead will be better than the living. Brethren, that time is now. There are many Brethren who we know.
27. Look at Brother Casmir, for instance. He died in Christ. His record has closed. He is waiting for the resurrection morning. But we that are alive on this earth, do we know what tomorrow holds for us? His own record has closed.
28. SOM: On a good note.
29. It is the same with many Brethren that died. Take for instance, Bishop Moses that died. All of them had their records closed on a good note.
30. SOM: Brethren like Goddy Ikwechebelu, Ferdinand Uzoma and the rest.
31. But we that are alive here on earth right now, still living, how are we sure our own is going to end on a good note?
32. Where they are now, there is nothing like iniquity. There is no transgression. The devil cannot take captive of their soul again. But we that are here, we are prone to everything in this world.
33. They are now better than us that are living. They are even better than Ministers that have backslidden during this COVID-19 period.
34. That is why, even if you go to their graves and tell them to come back, they will not accept because if you bring them back, do you know whether they will be found in iniquity the next day? That is a perfect question.
35. So, we have come to that point where those that died in Christ are now better than those that are alive.
36. This is because, to them now, their own battle of Faith has ended. They are now waiting for their reward on the resurrection morning.
37. But we that are here, we are still striving. Every day we are striving. We are fighting the devil. So, have you seen why we should make the Word of God our utmost delight.
38. SOM: The title of this Message we are hearing now is NO SECOND CHANCE. NO SECOND CHANCE!
39. Let us go to the Message, GOD IS WORSHIPPED BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS, preached on 21st July, 2013 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Apostle Peter Odoemena, THE SON OF MAN; Page 66 verse 6.
40. We depend on the Word of God. If you hate the Word of God, you hate your life. Blessed is that man, that woman who has used the Word of God as the absolute, who took delight only in doing that which will please God, pondering over it both day and night?
41. God said what? Blessed is that man, that woman, that youth, that child, that family that has used the Word of God as their absolute, and who takes delight only in doing that which will please God, pondering over it day and night. Amen.
42. Blessed is that individual, blessed is that family, blessed is that youth, blessed is that boy, that girl that ponders over the Word of God. Who by day or by night, he is striving to please God.
43. 1BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather.
44. 2But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. [Psalms]
45. Brethren, have we seen what the Word of God told us here? Blessed are we for even hearing this Word today. But we are going to be condemned if, after hearing, we do not put it into practice. We still abuse this grace of God.
46. God told us that we should live every day of our lives here on earth as if it is the last day we have. If you go to bed and you do not wake up in the morning, your own file has been closed.
47. What your life is at that present moment is what it will be when you resurrect from the dead. NO SECOND CHANCE. No going back again. No remedy.
48. Let us go to the Message, GOD CAN DO ANYTHING [FAITH EXPLAINED] VOL 2. Preached on 6th September, 2015 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Apostle Peter Odoemena, THE SON OF MAN; Page 16 verse 1.
49. I am going to dwell on this Message strictly for long. If you have been doubting, arguing over the matter which we have been discussing from the time you came here to this hour, this is My reply to you.
50. If there be any question agitating your mind as to why you should exercise your faith in Him and Him alone, this is My reply to you.
51. If you have been talking in your groups, in your families about Him, about His family, this is My reply for you.
52. If there be anything you are querying concerning Him, His family, His children, His work, everything, this is My reply to you.
53. Job 44:1-5. Then Job replied to God:… Job replied to God, not to any man. 2“I know that you can do anything….
54. I know you God Almighty can do anything. God can do anything. God can do anything, whether good or bad. God can do anything.
55. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS AS A REVELATION, THAT HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD, THAT HE CAN DO ANYTHING, WHETHER GOOD TO BAD, YOUR LIFE IS IN JEOPARDY.
Meaning of ALMIGHTY
56. Oxford languages:
HAVING COMPLETE POWER; OMNIPOTENT
57. Cambridge dictionary:
(OF GOD) HAVING THE POWER TO DO EVERYTHING.
58. Merriam-Webster dictionary:
[1] HAVING ABSOLUTE POWER OVER ALL. [2] RELATIVELY UNLIMITED IN POWER.
59. www.dictionary.com:
[1] HAVING UNLIMITED POWER; OMNIPOTENT, AS GOD. [2] HAVING VERY GREAT POWER, INFLUENCE ETC. [3] EXTREME, TERRIBLE.
60. Collins dictionary:
ALL-POWERFUL; OMNIPOTENT.
61. If you do not have this revelation that God can do anything, your life is in jeopardy. That is why God said that He cannot guarantee the Salvation of any Elect that is found in unbelief.
62. He can do anything, He can go to the deepest hell and save you. But we heard it that when you blaspheme His name [Elect or non-Elect] God must destroy you. No going back. That God can save Me; Yes! God can do it, but that is when I obey His Word.
63. When you live your life anyhow, and you expect God to save you, then that means that God can save the rest of the world, which is not so.
64. GOD CAN DO ANYTHING [FAITH EXPLAINED] VOL 2; Page 19:11. 2“I know that you can do anything and that no one can stop you. And nobody can do what? Stop you. No being created by God can stop Him.
65. Your brilliance is useless nonsense. Your plea is nonsense, unless He has not made up His mind to accomplish it.
66. Once He has made up His mind, [and] a line is drawn on His decision, He must accomplish it. Nobody can stop Him.
67. Do you know God to that point? All you have been studying, hearing, reading since morning, it will create faith in you to see God from this perception.
68. Although He is a Man and He has always been a Man for if He had not been a Man, forget about salvation. Your own generation is not an exemption.
69. If God is not a man, how can man relate with Him? Every Messenger of God in every age has always been God-man. As God to save, and as man to make the enemies of God doubt Him, despise Him and reject Him. Yet, in Him is the Almighty hidden. I repeat: Yet, in Him is the Almighty hidden.…THE SON OF MAN [BLAME YOURSELF AND NOT GOD; Preached on 30th September 2007; Pg. 5.
70. Our own generation is not an exemption. If God could destroy even the first son of Noah, our own time is not an exception.
71. If Peter of all Peters could get lost, even after the master departed, our own generation will never be an exception for all those that disbelieved God.
72. Check the Israelites. These people were really strong. God said in 40 years, they sinned against God 10 times. That means they sinned against God, once in 4 years. Have we performed better than them? A pertinent question.
73. Yet, God later did what? Destroyed them that still did not believe in Him. Have we performed better than them? But look at the magnitude of grace we are enjoying.
74. God said this is the hour whereby people tend to get lost after abusing this grace from God. This is because, right now, God is not begging any human being to come and dwell in Paradise with Him.
75. Even if only one person goes to Paradise, God is satisfied. We are the ones striving to get this eternal life, not God striving to get it.
76. So, it is our own vocation to do what? Comply to what God is doing for us because if we do not comply with it, if we do not accept it, it will be to our own peril.
77. That is why THE SON OF MAN said, “Your obedience is to your own good. And your disobedience is to your own peril.” You are not doing it to Him or either to God. No way!
78. God is trying to stretch out His arms of love and favour to us and to co-opt us into His eternal life. That is what He is doing. He is showing us the greatest love.
79. That is what God is showing us in our dispensation. The greatest love is what we are enjoying in God. If you do not know, know it now. Extravagant love and grace is what we are enjoying.
80. Check the billions of people in the world, but God decided to manifest Himself in human form, to us that are here. We owe God a lot.
… In the fellowship, everybody is an angel but, in the home, the true colour of everybody is made manifest. Now, everybody is at home and God is now dealing with families, individuals in that family. You cannot hide from God now. So all these people that are in their homes practicing unbelief, God has already marked them. All of them that are mocking God, God has marked them.

YOUR UNBELIEF CAN NEVER HINDER GOD FROM DOING
HIS WILL
GOD CAN DO ANYTHING [FAITH EXPLAINED] VOL 2; Page 30:1-3. Now, how many are in this faith actually? How many have actually weighed THE SON OF MAN to be the One that ruleth over the affairs of men?
2. How many have been talking randomly and unguardedly because they are seeing Him as they are seeing themselves? A mere man!
3. 16No longer, then, do we judge anyone by human standards. Even if at one time we judge Christ according to human standards, we no longer do so. [2 Corinthians 5:16 GNB]
4. Son of Man put your ear on the wall and hear what your people are saying concerning you.
5. They are becoming what? A sad news. Becoming burdens to the Lord and God labeled all of them “a sad news”. And they are the people God will cast away. NO SECOND CHANCE. God will cast them away.
6. How many have been talking randomly and unguardedly because they are seeing Him as they are seeing themselves, “Mere man, claiming what He is not”, because He is not walking according to the imaginations of your heart and He is not fulfilling your personal desires.
7. GOD IS NOT HERE TO FULFIL ANY MAN’S DESIRES. HE NEVER CAME TO FULFIL YOUR DESIRE. HE CAME TO DO HIS WILL, WHETHER HIS WILL AGREES WITH YOUR DESIRE OR NOT.
8. Amen! Amen!
9. I repeat. How many have been talking randomly and unguardedly because they are seeing Him as they are seeing themselves, “Mere man, claiming what He is not”, because He is not walking according to the imaginations of your heart and He is not fulfilling your personal desires.
10. GOD IS NOT HERE TO FULFIL ANY MAN’S DESIRES. HE NEVER CAME TO FULFIL YOUR DESIRE. HE CAME TO DO HIS WILL, WHETHER HIS WILL AGREES WITH YOUR DESIRE OR NOT.
11. This is where people miss God in all the ages. This has been the bane of man who is always thinking that God will come according to your own imaginations or that God will save you anyhow. That is a lie!
12. God will do that thing which is pleasing in His own eyes. Remember, if you go into judgement with God, which lawyer will be your advocate? Who will advocate for you? Definitely, nobody!
13. SO, IF YOU SEE GOD DOING HIS WILL, YOUR DUTY IS TO ACCEPT HIM. YOUR DUTY IS TO PUT YOUR TRUST AND CONFIDENCE IN HIM. SUPPORT HIM WHEN HE IS DOING THAT THING.
14. But when you claim that you know better than God, that is when you meet your destruction. When you claim you know better than Him, that is when you meet your destruction. That was what killed Peter as recorded in the Bible.
15. According to the Scriptures, Peter was the oldest. He was the oldest of all the disciples. When their Master Jesus will come, he [Peter] will tell him, “You are still a very young boy. Do you know that I am an elderly man?”
16. [Look at Peter], making such a reference to a man of how many years! A man of more than 30 years. This was because he [Peter] was by far older than him [Jesus].
17. 22But Peter took him aside to remonstrate with him. “Heaven forbid, sir,” he said. “This is not going to happen to you! [Matthew 16:22 LB]
18. 22Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “God forbid it, Lord!” he said. “That must never happen to you!” [Matthew 16:22 GNB]
19. And that was why the master told him, “Get behind me Satan.”
20. SOM: I am tired of you. You have become a very dangerous trap to me. You are always whispering your suggestion to Me. You have become a temptation. Stop whispering to Me, for I do not want it anymore.”
21. GOD CAN DO ANYTHING [FAITH EXPLAINED] VOL 2; Page 39 verse 25. Is this a Godly calm or an uneasy calm? For this calmness is astonishing. This was how I took off this morning. This was the calmness when I spoke. Is that how we are going to dismiss? Let Me believe that the Word is gradually distilling into your hearts.
22. Let Me believe that you are gradually placing yourself with the Word and you are weighing yourself and you can see your weight at a glance that you are actually weighing nothing. The mirror.
23. If by this hour, right now, we are still weighing zero in the balance of God, when are we going to weigh something then? We are not even weighing one or two percent, but zero.
24. That God is going to spew us away from His mouth. If by now, there are so many individuals, notably ancient Ministers, that are still backslidden, [and their wives,] and their different families, when are they going to rise?
25. Is it now that we are already in the conclusion? God said that we are already in conclusion. What is left for us to write is “The End.”
26. Is this now the period when they will now strive to come back to God? How many years will it take them?
27. THIS IS BECAUSE IF YOU CHECK THE NUMBER OF YEARS WHICH YOU DEPARTED FROM GOD, IT WILL COST YOU THAT NUMBER OF YEARS TO COME BACK TO GOD.
28. YOU CANNOT JUST LEAVE GOD IN FIVE YEARS AND EXPECT TO COME BACK IN TWO MONTHS. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE. YOU MUST PASS THROUGH SO MANY THINGS. YOU HAVE TO FORFEIT SO MANY THINGS.
29. ALL THE THINGS WHICH YOU GAINED FROM SATAN, YOU MUST SPEW ALL OF THEM OUT AND IT IS NOT A ONE-DAY ACTIVITY. IT TAKES A PERIOD OF TIME.
30. SOM: GOD SAID, “THE LEVEL YOU ATTAINED IN EVIL DETERMINES THE LEVEL OF RESTITUTION YOU WILL MAKE. AND THAT DETERMINES YOUR LEVEL OF JUDGMENT.”
31. IT IS NOT A ONE DAY’S ACTIVITY. I WAS GIVING AN INSTANCE AND I SAID THAT IT IS BETTER YOU DIE OBEYING GOD THAN TO BE ALIVE DISBELIEVING GOD AND OBEYING THE DEVIL.
32. I will use an instance, which is that of our late Deacon John Abbah. I was talking to our Brothers one day, and I reminded them of the comment God made.
33. God said that he [John] was obeying God when he died because God gave him an instruction, “Go and pay your wife’s bride price.”
34. And he [John] said that he was going to work to get the money to use and pay the bride price.” Even Brethren testified to it to be truth. God said he died obeying the Word of God.
35. What do you think his condition will be on the resurrection morning? Is it not resurrection to eternal life? He died obeying God.
36. Then, what if you now die when you are disobeying God and disbelieving God? You are still telling God, “Do you know who I am?” as if you can fight God if a fight is staged for you and Him.
37. You can now begin to appreciate God’s love that 99.9% of people in this Faith are not with God. Which means only 0.01%. Less than 1%.
38. I know that you can do anything. I know you can do anything because you are the Ever Living, you are the Sovereign God.
39. SOVEREIGN means He that can do anything without anybody challenging Him.
40. That is what it takes to be sovereign, and that no one can stop Him. Not even challenging, no one can stop Him.
41. Even your opposition cannot stop God. Your unbelief cannot stop Him. That is why the Scriptures said that your unbelief can never hinder God from doing His will.
42. Our unbelief can never hinder God from doing His will.
43. SOM: And when He is doing it, He does not want to know whether He is favouring you or not, for whatever God does, favours only His children. But all that do not belong to Him, they feel dis-favoured. Is it not true?
44. Look at what He did in Psalm 105 in Egypt. It favoured the Elect, but it did not favour the non-Elect. Is it not true?
45. WHEN THE MESSAGE OF GOD GOES FORTH, IT IS A SAD NEWS TO THE NON-ELECT, BUT A GOOD NEWS TO EVERY ELECT.
46. Whatever God does is a Good News to the Elect, but to the non-Elect, those that operating in the region of the lost, it is a provocation. A provocation, “This man has come again. He has started talking about this same thing again.”
47. SOM: Because they are operating in the region of the lost.
48. It then becomes a provocation. Inside them, they are boiling. It is better they even speak it out with their mouths than for them to be boiling inside because the thought of your heart rings bell in the throne of God more than the words that your speak.
49. SOM: It is truth. Inner voice!
50. Yes! In the former times, Israelites were rebelling with their mouths. They will talk, talk, talk and talk. And then, provoke the prophet to anger.
51. But in our own day, our own is now happening within: Inside the heart. On the outside, the person will look angelic, but inside, devil with legions of demon operating.
52. In their mind, they will be saying, “They have started again on this same matter. They would not allow somebody to have rest.” It is a provocation
53. But to the Elect, they will see it as a direct Message from God to them. That is the real Elect. They will see it as a direct Message from God to them.
54. Even your opposition cannot stop Him. Your unbelief cannot stop Him. That is why the Scripture says that our unbelief can never hinder God from doing His will. Once He has willed it in His heart, your unbelief cannot hinder it.
55. SOM: Whether you believe it or not, you will see it with your own eyes by the time is has overwhelmed you, for an Igbo adage says that the stubborn person obeys and submits within his burial mat.
56. Your unbelief cannot stop it. Your unbelief, my unbelief can never stop God from doing His will. Your rebellion cannot stop it.
57. Have you known God to this point that, no matter your demonstration, you can never stop God from doing what He wants to do?
58. A pertinent question.
59. Have you known God to this point that, no matter your demonstration, you can never stop God from doing what He wants to do?
60. When was this Message preached? It was preached on 6th September, 2015. Amen.
61. Have you known God to this point that, no matter your demonstration, you can never stop God from doing what He wants to do?
62. SOM: No matter your angry resentment, hateful resentment, your indignation, you cannot stop God. Once He has willed something, He has willed it.
63. It must be the way He has willed it, and not the way you want or the way you were desiring. No, no, no! And this is where many are perishing.
64. Have you known God to this point that, no matter your demonstration, you can never stop God from doing what He wants to do?
65. Even if you call Him a deceiver, it can never stop God from doing that which He has purposed to do.
66. And God said from now, He will start deceiving people.
67. SOM: And He has shown us Scriptures where God will permit you to carry out all your evil acts, telling the perpetrator[s] that the acts do not mean anything. And you think you are getting saved after doing them. Is it not a horrible condition?
68. A horrible condition! But when the Elect will come, He will stop them. The non-Elect will come, He will approve of everything. He will say, “Go! All is well. Go! All is well.”
69. GOD WATCHES OVER HIS WORD TO BRING IT TO PASS; Preached on 1st November, 2014 at THE SON OF MAN’s Family Altar, Nsugbe [Anambra State]. This Message went forth precisely a month after we packed in here.
70. Page 44 verse 14. Once you are a seed of God and you are straying away, He [God] must go after you. He will never stop until He brings you back.
71. But if you are not a seed of God and you wander away, the Lord will even help you to continue to move until you vanish from His sight.
72. SOM: Hallelujah! Is it not in the Holy Quran? Allah will guide such people; such obstinate, powerful unbelievers with unrepentant hearts; Allah will guide them into error. Keep on guiding them until they are destroyed in hell fire.
73. 14“And verily We shall cause you to abide in the land, and succeed them. This for such as fear the Time when they shall stand before My tribunal,- such as fear the punishment denounced.” 15But they sought victory and decision [there and then], AND FRUSTRATION WAS THE LOT OF EVERY POWERFUL OBSTINATE TRANSGRESSOR. 16IN FRONT OF SUCH A ONE IS HELL, AND HE IS GIVEN, FOR DRINK, BOILING FETID WATER. [Surah 14:14 – 16]
74. This Message was preached exactly one month after we packed in here. 2014 Message.
75. Once you are a seed of God and you are straying away, He must go after you. He will never stop until He brings you back.
76. But if you are not a seed of God, and you wander away, the Lord will even help you to continue to move until you vanish from His sight. Thus, let us learn a lesson here.
77. God said, “Let us learn a lesson here.” If you read the Message, UPSET THE FAITH OF THE SON OF MAN AND END IT IN THE GRAVE, this quote is also there.
78. In that message, so many Ministers were mentioned, but it is very sad to note that they have not even repented from what they were called for in the Message.
79. Have you known God to this point that no matter your demonstration, you can never stop God from doing what He wants to do? Even if you call Him a deceiver, it can never stop God from doing that which He has purposed to do.
80. Your feeling of being skeptical can never stop God from doing His will. Your weeping [is] rubbish. Crawl on the floor with your knees, you are wasting your time. The only thing He requires from your hand is truth from the inward heart.
81. The only thing God requires from our hand is truth from the inward heart. Truth from the inward heart. Truth from a sincere heart, not truth from a cunning heart.
82. You will just come together and say, “Yes, I know. I know it is the truth”, and that is where you will stop. God does not look at that heart.
83. Even if you tear your cloth, roll on the ground, and you are not saying the naked truth in your heart, God will never never listen to you. His will must be done in your life.
84. Check Ahab. He not only tore his cloth and poured ashes on himself, he also tore his heart. And God said, “I have seen the heart of My servant Ahab.”
85. God was looking at his heart, not his body, and then said that, since he [Ahab] has repented, these things will not come to pass when he is alive.
86. SOM: There is nothing impossible for God to do, for with God all things are possible. They may be evil to you, but that is His delight. They may not be good to you. That is His delight.
87. He does as He has purposed. And no man directs His ways. He does everything after the counsel of His own will.
88. GOD CAN DO ANYTHING. Page 51:2. Place yourself on a plumb line from the foundation Message down to the one you heard, and you will begin to see what stemmed the exit of many.
89. And then find out whether you are merely sitting down here, hanging on or you are in the number that is saved within the 0.01%. Within the less than 1%.
90. It has always been My prayer, “Holy Father, King of Glory, The Creator of the whole universe, if you are saving one person, let Me be the one. If you are saying two, let Me be there. If you are saving three, let Me be there.
91. Concerning this matter, it does not recognize who your wife is; who your husband is, or who your child. They are immaterial.
92. I want to read a backup quote from the Message, GOD IS WORHSIPPED BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS, preached on 21st July, 2013.
93. Page 37 verse 45. Sure! Have you not been hearing from Me that Rapture will strike surprises? Have I not told you that big names in the Church can hardly make it?
94. They will be basking on their past glory: “We were there from the very official beginning. We saw this and that.” But that is not the ticket.
…The moment a man’s conscience is dead, the man is dead. No child of God disobeys God and feels happy. Once you are a seed of God and discover yourself in disobedience, you must remain restless. Your heart will be fainting until you make it right. That is a sign that you are a seed of God. 21However, once you are on the wrong side and your heart is saying that it does not matter, to begin with, you are a foreigner in the family of God, for no child offends his father and feels happy.
FIND OUT THE PURPOSE YOU ARE FULFILLING IN THIS MINISTRY VOLUME 1, preached 3rd November, 2013; 61 verse 20 – 21.

GOD TAKES RECORD OF INIQUITY
GOD IS WORSHIPPED BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS, preached 21st July, 2013. Page 37 verse 45. …”We were there from the very official beginning. We saw this and that”, but that is not the ticket.
2. Somebody who is privileged to be admitted even now, now, now may have no difficulty crossing the Gate. However, he that was with us from the very official beginning will have problems.
3. It has come to pass. You heard it from My mouth this morning, concerning our departed Brother, Casmir. I said to the Elders yesterday while we were discussing, that he came in from his former church, The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival where he wasted his years.
4. When he embraced this Truth, he came with all his heart, with intent to learn the truth. He submitted his life to the Word of God, and the Word of God purified him.
5. With the zeal, he was the one spearheading and encouraging others to come in. With that zeal, he saw a place where they will be gathering, in a Brother’s house.
6. With that zeal, he compelled Pastor Moses that they must have a place so that all of them will be receiving the Word of God at the same time.
7. He [Casmir] pushed him. All of them came for approval of the place where they got. With that new zeal in him, he fell down from a cliff, but he did not die. He never had any injury. He went back and continued in that work, proving the Power of God.
8. In that same zeal, he fell sick for he is a victim of hypertension and diabetes. I never heard it. They told Me about it just a day before, and the following day, they announced his death.
9. I said, “No, God saw the trouble that was coming.” There is a great problem that is coming upon the earth anytime from now. Anybody that is not fully grounded and rooted cannot bear it.
10. And anybody God does not want to lose who is having bodily defect right now, the Lord will parcel him home so that he will not fall victim of unbelief as a result of the trouble.
11. God is gradually taking the Saints away, knowing that when the trouble will come, they will be victims. He does not want them to be victims.
12. And the world is thinking they are dead, they are not dead. They are taken by the Almighty, preserved. They will be the first fruits of the resurrection from the dead.
13. They will be partakers of the first resurrection. Second death will never have power over them. In short through his evangelism, he brought people into Christ more than any other old Minister. Amen.
14. How can the old Ministers convince people to come when they have not even helped their families to know God? Am I making sense?
15. Song: Come, that you may know God. Come, that you may know God; come, that you may know God and His power, and His glory.
16. 46Somebody who is privileged to be admitted even now, now, now may have no difficulty crossing the Gate. We are the 5.04.48 of the cross, the pillar of the Cross. No difficulty. Amen.
17. 46Somebody who is privileged to be admitted even now, now, now may have no difficulty crossing the Gate. However, he that was with us from the very official beginning will have problems.
18. Verse 48. 48Do not ever say, “God judge me.” Who can enter into judgment with God and go away free? If you go away free, it then means you have defeated God. Tell Me what you will say.
19. 49Who would be your advocate? I mean, your lawyer that will ‘lawyer’ it out with Almighty God and win? For you to be discharged and acquitted in the hands of God, it is grace. It is because of what Christ that is revealed in your day has accomplished for you otherwise, no way. I say, no way.
20. The question was asked, “What must I do that I may fulfill the perfect will of God? That I may do the works of God perfectly well?”
21. He said, “You have only but one thing to do: believe in Him Whom He has sent.” And believing means trusting in Him, confiding in Him, depending on Him, relying on Him, doubting nothing.
22. 50Even you as an individual, you know that without intervention, no way. Who will say that he does not know himself? Who will say that he does not know what he is thinking even right now?
23. 51Don’t you know what is going on in you? Do you not know what you have committed? Do you not know what you are about to do? How can you stand in judgment with God? Tell Me! Glory be to God!
24. GOD CAN DO ANYTHING, preached 6th September, 2015. Page 52 verse 5. 5CONCERNING THIS MATTER, IT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHO YOUR WIFE IS, WHO YOUR HUSBAND IS, YOUR CHILD, THEY ARE IMMATERIAL.
25. No Second Chance is the Message we are hearing, that is the title; that is the topic.
26. EVERY BEING IS STANDING IN THIS FAITH AS AN ENTITY. YOUR FATHER CAN NEVER COME NEAR, YOUR MOTHER CANNOT COME NEAR.
27. Have you seen why everybody should have his/her own spiritual experience with God. That of your parents cannot save you. You must have your own spiritual experience with Christ.
28. The righteousness of Noah did not cover his first son. The righteousness of David did not bring Absalom back to life. Even the children of Prophet Samuel, his righteousness did not make them become priests after him.
29. What can you say about the house of Eli? So, that is why we must worship God in spirit and in truth as individuals. That of Moses did not cover the children, but check the son of Aaron.
30. When God kill Aaron, the son, Eleazar took up the robe immediately. God was the One that handed it over. God handed it over to him because he was in right standing with God.
31. And God warned him never to weep because God killed Aaron before his son, Eleazar; on top of the mountain. All the Israelis saw what happened.
32. He derobed him, handed the robe over to his first son, Eleazar and told him to continue in the stead of the father. But look at the incident; the sin Aaron committed, sin of idolatry that deceived many.
33. They ran to Moses because they asked “Who are on the Lord’s side?” Many years elapsed, the people journeyed for another twenty years.
34. Standing where they could see Canaan, the Promised Land, one morning God said, “Aaron, can you please come up? I have something to discuss with you. While coming, bring your son Eleazar. Make haste, I am in a haste.”
35. Aaron was rushing, first son running, thinking that God will use him to replace Moses; thinking that God will crown you for having joined hands in leading the people thus far.
36. But when he got there, God in His humble way, looked at him, gazed at his face; only one question: “Aaron, can you please, in a nutshell, tell Me why you deemed it fit to turn the face of My people away from Me to something you moulded with the ornaments you collected from them, claiming that they should worship it; that that is the god that brought them out of the land of Egypt?”
37. Something Aaron had forgotten for many many years and was thinking that all was well. The Bible said, “Aaron bent his head low without uttering a word.”
38. And the Lord said to Eleazar, “Keep a little distance away from your father. Aaron, can I have the 5.11.03? Undress yourself, give Me the robe.”
39. The Bible said, “Aaron went naked on top of the mountain.” The whole Israelis in the camp gazed at the mountain where the Lord made Aaron to stand naked.
40. The Lord collected the garment of priesthood of Aaron and handed it over to his son, Eleazar. He said, “Eleazar, your father will not go down from the mountain for his carcass will be devoured by fowls of the air on this mountain from now.
41. Let Me not see you weep or cry or your case will be more grievous than that of your father. Go and continue as a priest in the stead of your father.”
42. The boy dressed himself, walked down. Aaron slumped down on the mountain, died there. The Bible said, “Fowls of the air devoured the corpse.”
43. Aaron was not dead, the Lord never carried the corpse. Just like dogs ate the body of Jezebel. Any lesson to learn? God takes record of iniquity, and it is not the day you commit the crime that God will judge it.
44. But any day God remembers it, He will bring it to you. You must account for all your misdeeds before the Lord. When God said that every idle word that goes out of your mouth, you must account for it.
45. What can you say about every wrong character which you did to the hurt of the Lord? You see why, before He introduced this worship, you must know the type of God we are worshipping. The Cloud is already here.
46. Have you seen that Eleazar was standing on his own personal conviction? That was why he did not cry. That was why God selected him; because if he was not walking in line with his father Aaron as someone that will take over from Aaron, the robe would have moved away from the family of Aaron and entered into another family.
47. Because if you check from the Bible, you will see that Aaron was the first priest after Melchizedek. Aaron was the first priest after Melchizedek. And the son knew the position which the father was occupying, striving to enter that position also.
48. It was when Eleazar died, there was no other to take that priestly office, that it moved to the tribe of Levi. The Levites became another chosen set of priests and the Levites continued until the Kings took over.
49. 6EVERY BEING IS STANDING IN THIS FAITH AS AN ENTITY. YOUR FATHER CAN NEVER COME NEAR, YOUR MOTHER CANNOT COME NEAR. YOU ARE THE ONE AND THE ONE ALONE.
50. 7LOOK AT JOB, WHO WILL BEHAVE LIKE JOB EVEN THIS HOUR? WHO WILL ACT LIKE JOB, WITH EVERY SINCERITY OF HEART? WHO CAN RECOGNIZE THE EXTENT HE HAS WANDERED AWAY ROM CHRIST AND STILL HANGING ON HERE? FOR THE SAME WAY WE WORSHIP HIM TOGETHER BUT NOT FOR SALVATION.
51. We can worship God together but not for salvation. Especially now that we are in our homes. Some may be there for formality lest their neighbours will accuse them for staying at home or not worshipping.
52. Some will even be disturbing their husbands and wives saying, “Nnaa, 5.15.27” allow somebody to rest
53. 7LOOK AT JOB, WHO WILL BEHAVE LIKE JOB EVEN THIS HOUR? WHO WILL ACT LIKE JOB, WITH EVERY SINCERITY OF HEART? WHO CAN RECOGNIZE THE EXTENT HE HAS WANDERED AWAY FROM CHRIST AND STILL HANGING ON HERE? FOR THE SAME WAY WE WORSHIP HIM TOGETHER BUT NOT FOR SALVATION.
54. So there are so many people that have wandered away from Christ even presently now who are still hanging on. They know they are not in Christ but they are just hanging on.
55. And one thing to know those people: their impact can never be felt anywhere. Both among the Ministers, in their families, individuals, in everything, their impact can never be felt. Nobody recognizes even their existence.
56. FOR SALVATION, YOU STAND AS AN INDIVIDUAL. FELLOWSHIP MEANS TOGETHER FOR ONE FEAST, FOR FRIENDSHIP. SALVATION PLACES YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL. Salvation places you and I as individuals.
57. THAT WAS WHY GOD FIRST OF ALL CUT OFF EVERYTHING JOB POSSESSED INCLUDING HIS CHILDREN AND PLACED JOB ALONE.
58. Have you seen why God cut off everything Job had and placed him alone; for the salvation of his soul.
59. Every occasion for pride, for boast, for he was extremely rich in his own day. Whatever that will not help us as elect of God to run this race from beginning till the end, the Lord will disarm us of it. Amen
Every true seed of God is sustained by the Word of God. He is not sustained by his feelings. He is not sustained by his mind or conscience. He is not sustained by his philosophy or ideology. Every true seed of God is sustained by the Word of God. Find out what has been sustaining you all this while. If what has been sustaining you is not the Word of God, you are sustained by the devil. Devil is falsely sustaining you in error.

A MAN STRUGGLES HIS WAY INTO HEAVEN OR HELL
GOD CAN DO ANYTHING, preached 6th September, 2015. Page 60 verse 27. 27YOU ARE AN UNBELIEVER NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT BELIEVING THE SON OF MAN BUT BECAUSE YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE SCRIPTURES, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE PROPHETS, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE APOSTLES THAT WERE BEFORE HIM. HOW CAN YOU THEN BELIEVE HIM? FOR ALL THE APOSTLES THAT WERE BEFORE HIM WERE LOOKING UP TO HIM.
2. We heard it this morning, “I am not the first Son of Man. I am the last.” So, there are so many people that have appeared answering Son of Man.
3. Noah was a Son of Man, David was a Son of Man, Daniel was a Son of Man, name them. They are many. But He happens to be the last.
4. So, if you are not believing in Him, it means that you have never believed in any Son of Man that has ever appeared. That means that you have not even believed that the age of Noah was destroyed, because if you do not believe that the Son of Man is Son of Man, you will not even believe that God destroyed the age of Noah.
5. 27YOU ARE AN UNBELIEVER NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT BELIEVING THE SON OF MAN BUT BECAUSE YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE SCRIPTURES, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE PROPHETS, YOU NEVER BELIEVED THE APOSTLES THAT WERE BEFORE HIM. HOW CAN YOU THEN BELIEVE HIM? FOR ALL THE APOSTLES THAT WERE BEFORE HIM WERE LOOKING UP TO HIM.
6. The Lord said through the mouth of the Son of Man in one of the messages we heard long ago, “For anybody to perish in this Faith, to backslide, to be a castaway, he must have lost sight of all the messages.
7. That is number one; he is disconnected from the head. Number two, he has neglected all the dreams God not only showed to people concerning him, but the Lord God also showed to him directly which he never narrated to anybody.
8. He kept those dreams to himself. He must have completely set aside the Voice of God that has been roaring on him, pointing out his evils. He must have judged all doctrines, all evangelical messages, all warnings from man and from God.”
9. He said, “It is not easy to go to hell.” A man struggles his way into hell by resisting the Truth that has been evidently set out before him, God confirming it to be true in many ways. He hardens his heart.
10. The same way, it is not easy to go to heaven. You must fight your way, struggle your way into heaven by denying falsehood, denying lies and error. Is it not true?
11. You must deny the truth before you accept the falsehood, deny falsehood, you accept the truth. And not even one is easy. It is not easy to accept the truth; it is not also easy to accept a lie when you know the truth.
12. If you know the truth, even if somebody is trying to force you to accept that lie, you will put on resistance. But where you do not know truth but you know error, you know lies, to force you to believe the truth is a fight and a fact, unless you have a believing heart, a discerning heart to believe the truth.
13. That is why, a true seed of God has no difficulty identifying with God by believing Him. But the rest will have it as their greatest difficulty. Is it not true?
14. Why is it not a difficult thing to a child of God? The Spirit of Christ is in him, helping him to obey God. For God is constantly at work in every seed of God, helping that seed of God to submit himself, submit his activities, submit his life all in obedience to the Truth from God. And if it is not from God, he does not pay attention. But watch, once God speaks, to him, it is final. Amen.
15. Have you seen that it has been a struggle for one to go to hell? But to go to Paradise, you have to shake off so many things from your body, deny yourself what your body wants and give it what it needs.
16. And what is that thing it needs? Truth, the Word of God. What does your body want? Corruption. Your body wants the things of the world because it came from this world.
17. But your spirit which is from God needs the Word of God; water it like a plant. That is what your soul needs. That is why, even if a man dies, the body is what gets rotten in the ground but the soul is still alive, the spirit is still alive.
18. If it is the spirit of the devil that controlled you, what is your eternal destiny? If it is the Spirit of God, that means the person must have a part in God.
19. So, have we seen that whatever we are doing now, whatever we are doing now, we are not doing it because of our outward body. No. It is inward.
20. Even the character which we are talking about is from inward. It comes out from the inward. You cannot just act something because your body wants to act it.
21. There is something propelling you to act that thing, and that thing is coming out of your spirit. Your soul is where that character is emanating from, not from your body.
22. The body has no power, it is the spirit that gives the body power to do anything. So, first of all, your spirit has to reject this Message for your body to reject it.
23. Your soul has to reject it for your body to reject it. Your spirit has to accept the Message and live by it so that your body will now adapt to it, adjust to it.
24. It is just like the masquerade and the mask. The person wearing the mask has to wear it first; he must accept the mask first before he will start acting as a masquerade.
25. If he rejects it, nobody will call him a masquerade; you will see him walking about the streets. So, what is happening within is what tells; and that nature of Christ which God wants us to attain is from within, then it will now reflect outside.
26. FOR ALL THE APOSTLES THAT WERE BEFORE HIM WERE LOOKING UP TO HIM.
27. 28THE WHOLE SEVEN CANDLESTICKS WERE LOOKING UP TO HE THAT WAS WALKING IN THE MIDST OF THE SEVEN CANDLESTICKS. HE THAT LIGHTED UP THE CANDLES, THAT HAS THE POWER TO REMOVE THE CANDLE FROM ANY DISPENSATION THAT DID NOT WALK UPRIGHTLY.
28. That is the same God we are worshipping today, and He is here even present.
29. Page 65 verse 38. 38I told My children in My family altar that, “Before God, I have no child. What I have are mere demonstrations.”
30. What? I told My children in My family altar saying, “Before God, I have no child. What I have are mere demonstrations.”
31. They are handed over to Me for mere demonstrations. Like we have demonstration class.
32. 39GOD ALLOWED THEM TO COME TO ME TO ENABLE ME RAISE A GODLY FAMILY SO THAT THE WORLD WILL HAVE AN ICON. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! So that the world will have what? An icon.
33. WHAT A GODLY FAMILY IS AND NOT MERE READING DOCUMENTS, SCRIPTS THAT WERE COMPILED AS A COMPENDIUM LABELLED THE HOLY BIBLE.
34. Hallelujah! Read it again. When was this Message handled? 6th September, 2015.
35. 38I told My children in My family altar that, “before God, I have no child. What I have are mere demonstrations.” They are handed over to Me for mere demonstrations. Like we have demonstration class.
36. 39GOD ALLOWED THEM TO COME TO ME TO ENABLE ME RAISE A GODLY FAMILY SO THAT THE WORLD WILL HAVE AN ICON: WHAT A GODLY FAMILY IS AND NOT MERE READING DOCUMENTS, SCRIPTS THAT WERE COMPILED AS A COMPENDIUM LABELLED THE HOLY BIBLE.
37. 40YES, THE BIBLE IS A COMPENDIUM. KEEP ON READING IT. THE MORE YOU READ, THE MORE WILD YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE. NOBODY HAS EVER SUCCEEDED IN CHECKING THE EXCESSES OF THE CHILDREN USING SCRIPTURES.
38. 41THAT IS WHY, REFERENCE, EVERY GENTLEMAN RUNS THE WORST FAMILIES. THAT WHICH THE BIBLE CANNOT ACCOMPLISH IN YOUR LIVES IS WHAT CHRIST CAN DO.
39. Amen! Holding the Bible and stumbling into hell. Holding the Bible and perishing, holding the Bible and raising the worst family. Amen. But when you hold unto Christ, you will raise Christ; your family will be Christ’s family, your children Christs.
40. 41THAT IS WHY, REFERENCE, EVERY GENTLEMAN RUNS THE WORST FAMILIES. THAT WHICH THE BIBLE CANNOT ACCOMPLISH IN YOUR LIVES IS WHAT CHRIST CAN DO.
41. 42THERE IS A GREAT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHRIST AND THE BIBLE. I AM THE CHRIST, I AM THE LIVING WORD, I AM STANDING. THE EASIEST WAY TO LIVE A LIFE IS BY EXAMPLE. THAT IS WHY I AIM AT RAISING AN ICON IN EVERY ASPECT.
42. That is why I aim at raising an icon in every aspect. That is why I aim at raising an icon in every aspect. Why not say, “Praise the Lord?”
43. Song: Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord. Hallelujah, hallelujah, Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, O sing o sing o, Praise the Lord.
44. Amen! Today is a memorable day, a day we consecrated and dedicated this new pulpit to the service of the Lord; and we can see the manifestation. We are seeing the vindication, we are seeing the confirmation.
45. THE EASIEST WAY TO LIVE A LIFE IS BY EXAMPLE. THAT IS WHY I AIM AT RAISING AN ICON IN EVERY ASPECT.
46. God is trying to raise an icon in every aspect. Is He going to use objects to raise the icon? No, it is individuals. We are the people that God wants to use to raise icons to correct the mistakes of the past.
47. Everybody in this Faith, God is trying to use them to raise an icon but they are the ones thwarting the purpose of God, to their own peril and to their own destruction; for God to bend to them which is not possible.
48. Since you have rejected God to use you as an icon, the devil will now use you as an icon. So, you have to choose one – God using you as an icon or the devil using you as an icon.
49. “If you want to see what the devil looks like, go to this family.” How does it sound? That in this Bridal Faith, it can be said that if you want to know what the family of Satan looks like, go to this family, and the family will be called. And you will be proud, being the head of the family, it is very very bad. Satan-controlled family.
50. Page 70 verse 49. 49THE GREATEST DESTROYER OF THE FOOLISH IS IGNORANCE. IGNORANCE, LACK OF UNDERSTANDING DESTROYS THE FOOLISH. WHILE A WISE MAN WILL BEHAVE LIKE JOB SAYING, “GOD, HELP ME, TEACH ME TO UNDERSTAND WHEREIN I HAVE ERRED. A MAN OF HUMBLE SPIRIT GOD CAN NEVER OVERLOOK. HELP ME BY TEACHING ME, HELPING ME TO UNDERSTAND WHEREIN I HAVE ERRED.”
51. This is what we should be asking God for now. “God, show me that place where I have erred, help me to change that area.” But one that is on his way to destruction will be saying, “God, anything You want to do, do it.”
52. And God said that if you harden your heart and blaspheme God, God will harden his heart and destroy you because that is what you sowed and you are now reaping it in due season.
53. When a criminal; remember he was not born a criminal, when a young person, man or woman, male or female, anybody can be a criminal. Is it not true?
54. Have you not been seeing them on the streets, female armed robbers? Is there any criminality women do not indulge in now? They are in every act of criminality, is it not true?
55. When somebody hardens his heart to practice criminality, defying the law of the nation, the law also will harden it’s heart and then judge the person and sentence the person accordingly.
56. If it requires killing, he will die. If it requires life imprisonment, he will go. If it requires hanging, hang him to the stake. He will be hanged because he knew that there are laws against those things.
57. Then, he defied the law and went into them because his heart was strong. With the same strong heart, you will bear what will happen to you.
58. That is why the Lord asked silly people that are trying to brag with evil; “Will your heart endure? Will your heart be strong? Will your heart be strong in the day when I remember your iniquity and visit you with My judgment?” Go ahead, we are following.
59. Page 82 verse 10. 10“I KNOW YOU CAN DO ANYTHING.” THE SCRIPTURES SAID THAT, “GOD DOES WHAT IS PLEASING IN HIS SIGHT.”
60. 11HE DOES NOT DO THAT WHICH IS PLEASING TO YOU. HE DOES THAT WHICH IS PLEASING IN HIS EYES AND EVERY ACTION OF GOD IS RIGHTEOUS IN HIS SIGHT. FOR THE LORD CANNOT COMMIT INIQUITY.
61. 12EVERY ACTION OF GOD IS RIGHT IN HIS SIGHT. IT CAN BE DEVILISH IN YOUR EYES, BUT IT IS RIGHTEOUS IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. FOR THE ALMIGHTY CAN NEVER GO WRONG. THE ALMIGHTY CAN NEVER COMMIT INIQUITY. BUT IT IS INIQUITY IF YOU BEGIN TO ATTRIBUTE SIN TO HIM. Pure Truth!
62. 13DO YOU KNOW WHAT CONSTITUTES INIQUITY? WHAT CONSTITUTES SIN? IT IS BECAUSE IT DOES NOT SINK WELL WITH YOU. FOR THAT, YOU LABEL IT INIQUITY AGAINST GOD, LABEL IT AS INJUSTICE AGAINST GOD. SO IT HAPPENED TO JEREMIAH.
63. 14Jeremiah started querying why righteous people were dying in penury, in poverty, real abject poverty. He was asking God questions. And the Lord replied him. When the Lord spoke, Jeremiah knelt down and said, “I repent, I am sorry that I could make such a reckless utterance.”
64. 15What of Jonah who expected God to kill all his enemies? To his dismay and disappointment, God said, “I have pardoned them seeing they have changed their hearts.”
65. 16Jonah flared up, “I know you, always changing your mind. Now, you have put me into trouble. Jeopardizing my future.” The three Js.
66. 17The Lord paused, looked at Jonah and said, “Stand under that Oak Tree and hear Me talk.”
67. 18Just one statement, Jonah said, “I close my lips, I cover my face in shame. I am lying flat on my belly. I am sorry that I could open my mouth.”
68. 19TELL ME WHO HAS EVER REACTED THE WAY YOU REACTED WITHIN AND WITHOUT BY YOUR WORDS, BY YOUR ACTIONS, BY YOUR THOUGHTS, TELL ME WHO HAS EVER GONE THAT WAY WITHOUT REGRETTING IT? WHO HAS EVER SUCCEEDED IN FAULTING GOD? BRING OUT ONE EXAMPLE AND PRESENT IT BEFORE ME.
69. 20WHO HAS EVER SUCCEEDED IN FAULTING GOD AND ADDUCING PLAUSIBLE EVIDENCE THAT CONVICTED GOD?
70. 21JOB SAW BECAUSE OF HARDSHIP, INSTEAD OF PRAYING THAT GOD SHOULD REVEAL TO HIM THAT IT IS GOD SUBJECTING HIM TO THAT. FOR THERE MUST BE EXALTATION AFTER TRIALS.
71. The three Js – Jeremiah, Jonah and Job, God highlighting three of them in this Message. We heard it also in all our Messages.
72. Page 88 verse 25. 25LET ME TELL YOU. WHEN GOD IS ALL OUT TO SAVE YOU, HE LEAVES NO STONE UNTURNED. HE CAN GO THE WAY NO HUMAN BEING CAN IMAGINE.
73. 26I told My children the other day that, “You are not My children, you are the children of God. I am only the caretaker. You are the children of the Most High God, I am only your caretaker, your overseer.
74. 27My duty is to nurture you to limelight where you can now take off. What? My duty is to nurture you to limelight where you can now take off.
75. Has He done that? My last born is the one handling the Message. He is the last one in the family. Family of seven, he is the last. And he is handling the Message by revelation, for he is handling what his life is reflecting. Eeh?
76. What else are we saying? What else do we say? If God is with us, who can be against us? Who can say that God is a liar?
77. 27My duty is to nurture you to limelight where you can now take off. You have your own troubles, you cannot trouble Me. If you trouble Me, two things are there. It is either I leave the scene or you leave the scene. What? It is either I leave the scene or you leave the scene. What? It is either I leave the scene or you leave the scene. The choice is yours.
78. 28Two of us cannot stay here at the same time to bear the trouble, never.” And they know I mean it. I have that power to lay down My life, I have the power to take it.
