SPARE TYRE VOL 1

SPARE TYRE VOL 1 OF 2 Preached ON Sunday 16^th April 2023 AT The voice of god studio Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe Anambra State, Nigeria BY Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN

Transcribed by Deacon David Mbah Students’ Fellowship, MOUAU, Abia State

I WAS [ready to be] inquired of by those who asked not; I was [ready to be] found by those who sought Me not. I said, Here I am, here I am [says I AM] to a nation [Israel] that has not called on My name. ²I have spread out My hands all the day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts—

Isaiah 65:1-2

Amplified version

I believe with all my heart that I know those I have chosen, and those I have chosen, they know that they have been chosen by Me. You did not choose Me for one day, I chose you. Even if you were asked to choose Me, you would have rejected Me. Many of you were even running away from Me. I was hunting you from place to place, even using hardship to make you stop somewhere. Even using sickness to make you stop somewhere, for if you fail to stop, you will fly away beyond my reach. Hence, you have to stop somewhere, while you will be running around it, I will meet you there.

THE SON OF MAN

GOD HAS COUNTED ME WORTHY, PUTTING ME INTO THIS MINISTRY; Preached on Sunday 13^th August, 2000 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 109 vs. 6 – 7

INTRODUCTION

PRAYER

To You O LORD of Hosts, the Glory of His people, the only One and True God, the pride of the Saints, the Alpha and the Omega, the Hope of our rejoicing, the only God that liveth and reigneth forever and ever; You are the God that created the heavens and the earth, even the fullness thereof.
We have come to You [O God] just as we are, as the workmanship of Your hands, created, fashioned and designed by You unto good works. We have come as wretched as we are, mortal, sinful flesh that drink iniquity as we drink water daily.
We come [O God] with our hearts broken because of our gross misconducts. We come O God with contrite spirits, shattered O God by our willful neglect to your godly instructions, for which cause O King of Glory, our lives are not giving us what we really want to be, for which cause a good number of us are falling short of their standards.
We come today O God, baring our hearts naked. I stand here as the intercessor for Your people. I make [O God] intercessions for Myself, like other high Priests first presented their sacrifices of sin, first for themselves and their families, and then for the Congregation of Your people.
So, I stand here this day reminding You O God of the sacrifice You placed on the cross of Calvary on a once and for all basis. When You placed that sacrifice there, You said, “It is finished”. The price to be paid for sin is finished. And LORD, there is nothing left.
There, You nailed on the cross all the lists of the laws we could not keep, making it impossible for the enemy [the devil] to accuse us of sin as a result of our inability to observe those stringent laws of Moses.
There You set all of them aside and opened a new Way, full of grace, full of truth and full of life for us [O God] from where we now come to Your Throne of Grace.
Upon that new Way O God, I make My supplication for Myself and My people here this day. Always keep Your eyes and affection on the cross where the penalty for their sins [Father] was paid once and for all.
That blood that was shed there, was shed for the remission of the sins of many that will acknowledge the remission and who will acknowledge the pardon.
We have come here because we accepted it. We have come because we believe that it really happened. We believe O God, that You paid the price we could not pay, for if we were left to pay that price, there would not be any hope of eternal life for any of us.
I come [O God] presenting Your chosen ones whom You chose for Yourself before the world began for salvation and not for destruction. Consider them [O God] once again this day from under that precious blood that is still flowing from that Fountain, from Emmanuel’s side [O God], which washes us whiter than snow.
Father, remember Your Word of promise that as Moses lifted up the brazen serpent in the wilderness for Your people there, that as many as will exercise their faith by looking up [O God] to that serpent, crying [O God], “Holy” unto You, will receive Pardon for their sins and will receive healing for their bodies and for their souls.
You said, “So shall the son of man be lifted up”. And if any will look up to Him, [LORD] that the person must be completely absolved, pardoned and set free from all the iniquities, sins and trespasses which he or she could not have been set free, if the person were to live his or her life under the laws of Moses.
Father, we have believed in that atoning sacrifice that maketh an eternal propitiation for the iniquities of Your people. Therein we stand and exercise our freedom today. Therein we stand and declare ourselves [Father] righteous in your sight because You resurrected from the dead. The grave never held You captive.
By Your resurrection, we stood justified. We are completely justified throughout the eternity of eternities having accepted the need [O God] in that sacrifice which You made on a once-and-for-all basis.
Even when we never came into existence here as human beings, You placed there an advance payment, knowing that we must err. And there is no other way to bring us back to You if not through that blood.
By that shedding of the blood, Father You said, “Remission of sin is made possible”, for where there is no shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin. The blood had already been shed. The blood that was sprinkled upon our hearts this day. We acknowledge all to be true and faithful.
By faith [Father], we approach You this day, and not by works, for by the works of the flesh, no human being can approach You, for the flesh is full of iniquity. The flesh is a burdensome stone to all.
Father, if there be anything challenging, it is the flesh that is challenging the spirit. You know how grievous it could be. For that reason O God, You went to the cross only to condemn sin in the flesh so that the spirit might be justified. And therein we stand this day.
Being justified in the spirit, we now have access to You. The LORD Jesus Christ was justified in the spirit, and received unto Glory. Never was He justified in the flesh, for the flesh profiteth nothing. No human being has ever been justified by the deeds of the flesh, for by the deeds of the flesh, You said it is impossible to please You. So nobody has ever pleased You by the deeds [the works] of the flesh, for they are vanities of all vanities.
And no one has ever obtained your righteousness [O God] by basking on the flesh and its works. Even if [O God] we obey the stringent laws to the letter without a single fault, we still stand condemned, for the Scriptures said, “Christ will never save us.” Of what use is the law then. Of what use is the strict obedience to those rules and regulations that could not offer us liberty in Christ.
Father, we therefore plead with you to listen to our pleas as we make our cases. I am standing here on the behalf of your children, not only here in this studio, but the whole world and in all the four corners of the earth.
No matter [O God] their religious group, they belong to You. If there be any variations, that could be by language, by colours of the skin, but spiritually [O God], they are having their faith fixed on You.
No matter the language they use in their worship; no matter what they call you, it is according to their own language. You do not send a Prophet except in the language of the people from where the Prophet is drawn.
I am here in the Igbo extraction in Nigeria. For that reason O God, necessity is laid on Me to speak to them in Igbo. So it has been since the world began. You have given us a language that can be understood by all. And that is why we speak the English language as a foreign language.
I therefore plead with You, wherever they may be all over the whole world hearing Me this morning, that their sins that have been atoned for will remain there [Father] atoned. Let nothing ever rake up any of their fault against any of them.
Justify them once and for all by their belief in the One Whom Thou hath sent, bearing your name in this Age, vindicated, confirmed and approved by You to be true. One that has been standing by Your right-hand side since the creation of the world. One in Whom dwelleth the Shekinah Glory; in Whom dwelleth the fullness of the Godhead. One chosen amidst all.
Father divine, as many [O God] as have by revelation discovered Him, and they have run to Him for escape, let all of them be secured.
As many as have heard His Voice even from distant countries, and have believed in Him, they have seen His photographs and they have communicated with Him in one way or the other, Father, unite all of them to the Godhead so that You will make it easy [Father] even for the son of man to lift them all whenever He is leaving the scene, for You said that whenever He is lifted up, He will draw souls to Himself. And that will stand, for that is Your counsel. Nothing can cancel it.
I therefore come Father divine, with all My heart, pleading on the behalf of every Elect of God, those upon whom You never imputed sin since the world began, and nobody can impute any sin on them. Their sins were covered before they came into the world. You had already adjudged them right in Your sight before sending them.
Do not, for any reason, forsake them. Remember Your promise. Even if the entire world shall stand deceived, the Elect will never be deceived. Stand behind them and stand behind Your promises. Fulfill Your oath, for in You, Your promises are yea and Amen.
We are looking for that glorious day when You will clothe this mortal body with immortality, and that will be the fullness and the completeness of our salvation in You; the only one purpose for which we have embraced You. This is because You first of all, loved us and we are loving You in return, so that in the end, we shall dwell with You eternally.
Do not [Father] deny us of this wonderful privilege. You have called us Your people and that is what we are. Otherwise, You would not have manifested Your divine attributes in our midst. The supernatural characteristics of the Deity are all prevalent among us.
Father, we know You are not making a fair show. After all, of all the congregations here on earth in our day, we are the fewest in number. We are nothing when compared [O God] to others. In terms of people that are worth something, Father, we are worthless.
There is no big name among us. There is not even one we can say, “Look at what he was, and look at what he is today”, for we were [O God] regarded as nonentities and sycophants, foolish and rejected things of the world.
You decided on Your own volition to gather us together and make us your own people. Help us to recognize what we are, and then walk towards satisfying [O God, Father] even Your heart desires, for which cause You brought us together, knowing that in the end, we shall return to You again.
We bow low before You, thanking You, believing O God, that all is well with us and You, for the Psalmist said that nothing gives him joy than when he wakes up every morning and notices that there is nothing standing between God and himself, and that all is well between two of you.
So, we are rejoicing that by this supplication; by this [O God] intercessory prayers [Father divine], there is nothing left again to the charge of any of us, even those that are yet unborn.
Having O God confessed our iniquities and our infidelities before You, we now bring before You our personal requests.
Among us are some who are sick. Father, send out Your Word, and let them be healed. You said that by Your strength, we are healed. Wherever they may be today, the first day of the week, I stretch forth My hands to the four corners of the earth, and I claim the lives of all of them. May they live and not die, to the Glory of your Most Holy Name.
The same way, I stretch forth My hand to the four corners of the earth, while recovering your people, Father, I remember pregnant women. I remember infants. Father, deliver them from their pregnancy pains. Cause them to deliver safely. Cause the children to grow up in the fear and admonition of the Almighty God.
To the entire parents [O God], including our youths, I hand over to Your care. Father, oversee their activities. One thing I request of Thee is to create Your fear in them so that they can stand rightly and worship You in the beauty of Your Holiness at all times.
To the son of man, the Man on your right-hand side, My prayer is that You keep on strengthening Him as You promised, so that He will help us to worship You rightly.
Supply the needs of Your children worldwide according to Your riches in glory. Let there be no distinction at all. You have been favouring the whole human race since the world began. Whether they will acknowledge it or not, remain favouring them without any demarcation.
Father, that is why we bow low everyday and reverence You. We worship You. We adore You because of Who You are. The only magnanimous God that provides and supplies the needs of all His creatures, including the lilies in the forest, the animals in the air and the fishes in the ocean. Not even one is exempted.
Although we pay you back with evil, yet You are still exercising Your long-suffering over us, not intending that any of us should perish, but that we should turn over a new leaf, turn to You and be saved.
This day O God, let it mark a turning point in the lives of many, especially many that have already strayed away. Recover them. Those that are on the brink of falling away, bring them back to the Fold and then steady them very well.
Those that are still standing let their roots get deeper and deeper into the knowledge and revelation of the truth of the hour.
To those that are desiring to come in, Father, weigh their hearts. If they are injurious, may they remain where they are. If they mean evil, may they remain where they are. But if they are godly with good hearts, open the gate and bring them in.
LORD, we say THANK YOU!
Humiliate the devil before our eyes. Father, let him be defeated before our eyes. And help us to join hands with You to humiliate the devil by rejecting all his suggestions, by rejecting all he is planning for us, by rejecting his teachings and his seductive spirits. May we say no to all.
I pray You build a strong hedge around Your own globally so that the devil will have no room [Father] to sneak into their lives anymore; to creep into their families and into their businesses to cause havoc. Do not permit that to happen anymore.
Put smiles on the faces of Your children in this time of adversity and in this time of austerity and real hardship. In this time of insecurity, secure the lives of all that put their trust and confidence in You.
To Your Name O LORD, we give all the praise. To Your Name, we give the glory. To Your Name, we give the honour, for hearing and answering our prayers.
Help us to worship You rightly this day. Not only here, but globally, for Your Name’s sake O LORD, I pray. Amen.

I am the Stone that is rejected by the builders which they must come after, whether they like it or not. The Bible has already disappointed the world. I told some of My friends who belong to the Deeper Life group saying, “Let Me tell you, this Bible you are holding, this Jesus, if these two things do not disappoint you, know that I am not HE. Know that I do not know who the Bible was referring to and whom Jesus stood for.”

THE SON OF MAN

JESUS IN RELATION TO THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD (CONTROVERSIAL TRUTH) VOL. 2; Preached on Sunday 14^th September 2003 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 37 vs. 43 – 44

THE MOMENT YOU OBEY, YOUR

HEART STANDS PURIFIED

You can be seated.
SONG: [As I looked on the cross and I behold My Saviour there, and I heard a Voice saying it is finished, and I cried and cried O LORD, “Forgive me my sins”. Then I heard a great Voice saying, “It is finished. Go home and sin no more.”]
Turn with Me to Hebrews Chapter 9 verses 27 through 28. Be very fast if you want Me to exhort you a little. The Book of Hebrews Chapter 9 verses 27 through 28 only.
Amplified version. ²⁷And just as it is appointed for [all] men once to die, and after that the [certain] judgment, ²⁸Even so it is that Christ, having been offered to take upon Himself and bear as a burden the sins of many once and once for all, will appear a second time, not to carry any burden of sin…
Not to do what? Not to deal with sin again, for that had been taken care of. And then, he is now dealing with Faith, which he has introduced, for the law came from Moses which brought about death on the cross of Calvary, but grace and truth came from the LORD Jesus Christ.
²⁸Even so it is that Christ, having been offered to take upon Himself and bear as a burden the sins of many once and once for all, will appear a second time, not to carry any burden of sin nor to deal with sin, but to bring to full salvation those who are [eagerly, constantly, and patiently] waiting for and expecting Him.
Remember the price of sin was not paid for the world, but for “MANY”. Who are the MANY? Whosoever that will acknowledge Him, that will acknowledge the sacrifice of sin. Whosoever. He did not pay the price for the world.
When He made the solemn prayer before He departed from the land of the Jews, there was no way He prayed for the world. He said, “Father, I am not praying for the world. I am praying for my own that you unite them in love, for I have manifested myself to them. I have given them Thy word. And they have believed that Thou hath sent me.
Sanctify them by Your Word, for Thy Word is truth.” So, anybody who cannot be sanctified by the Word of God, does not belong to God. If the Word of God does not have power in you to reform and refine you and make you to look like the Word, for the Word is the Name of God, and the Word is God.
In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. That Word was God. In the Book of Revelation, He had a Name written, “THE WORD OF GOD. THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS.”
So, when you are disobeying, you are not disobeying any man. You are disobeying God. And you are giving Him valid reasons to discount you from the number.
Anybody who is willing can have access to the salvation of God. You can be numbered among the many, for which cause he died.
Saint Paul said, “I am labouring day and night among You, pleading and persuading you to believe. Peradventure, from among you, I will save some”, for he was the Saviour of the Gentiles that time. The Angel Messenger of the first Church Age. Was he preaching to save everybody? No! To save SOME.
Reference: 1 Corinthians 9:22. ²²To the weak (wanting in discernment) I have become weak (wanting in discernment) that I might win the weak and overscrupulous. I have [in short] become all things to all men, that I might by all means (at all costs and in any and every way) save some [by winning them to faith in Jesus Christ]. AMP
When the LORD came and revealed Himself among us, he said he gathered us. UNTO US GOD FIRST APPEARED TO CHOSE FOR HIMSELF A PEOPLE THAT WILL BE HIS OWN, not all.
When the LORD Jesus spoke to them according to the Book of John, He said, “You are cleansed, but not all.” You are holy. You are sanctified. You are cleansed by the Words which I have spoken to you, but not all.
Who is this person that is starving in the midst of plenty? Who is this person that cannot go through the Gate where others passed through? Who is this person who cannot be sanctified and purified by the same Word that sanctified and purified others? You can decipher that yourself.
By their fruits, He said, “Ye shall know them”. By their manifestations You will know them, for their manifestation is always the interpretation of everything. You can claim whatever you want to claim, but your manifestation does the real interpretation. True or false? Anybody can claim to be a child of God.
SONG: [All are carrying the Bible about, claiming and proclaiming that they are sons and daughters of God, but God knows all that are His.
All are in one denomination or the other, claiming and proclaiming that they are sons and daughters of God, but God knows all that are His.]
In the Great House of God, there are not only ornaments of gold and silver. There are some of wood and some of clay. Some of honour. Some of dishonour.
Whosoever the purifieth himself, the same shall be made a vessel of honour, meet for the Master’s use. Whosoever that purifieth himself. You purify yourself and I purify myself by obeying the truth.
Saint Paul said, “You are now purified by your obedience to the truth”.
So, if your heart is not yet purified, it is because you have not obeyed. The moment you obey, your heart stands purified. There is nothing that will be brought to the charge against you, for you are living the life of obedience. So, that’s all!
Christ first obeyed the Father and became the Author of eternal salvation to those who will obey.
Watch! THE SON OF MAN can never come to you with your sins anymore. Sin has been taken care of, but He is here working on those who have been eagerly and patiently waiting for that salvation.
PAYMENT FOR SIN IS NOT SALVATION. IT IS WHEN THE SIN IS ATONED FOR THAT YOU CAN NOW SEE THE FACE OF GOD AND BEGIN TO HEAR AND UNDERSTAND HIM. THE RIGHT SPIRIT WILL NOW COME IN AND FILL THE PLACE THAT WAS OCCUPIED BY SIN.
THEN, THE SPIRIT OF GOD WILL NOW BEGIN TO HAVE CONTROL OVER THE INDIVIDUAL. ONLY THERE AND THEN WILL YOUR LIFE BEGIN TO BE CONTROLLED, NOT BY YOUR WORLDLY PASSIONS, BUT BY THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THEN, NO MORE REBUKE. NO INDICTMENT. FOR WHERE THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST RULES, THERE IS LIBERTY. THERE IS EXPRESSION OF THOUGHT, HEALING LIKE THAT.
That was why I was indicting you, Lucky, yesterday. I said that you are making yourself a stranger in my house. And I will begin to treat you like a stranger because that is what you are telling Me you are.
The house belongs to you. You have been here with us. You are at liberty with everybody. Moreso, we are males. Assuming we are in the army, we are all wearing the same uniform, ranks notwithstanding. A soldier is a soldier, receiving the same training.
You are not restricted from anywhere, even my bedroom and so on. Nobody here is restricted in anywhere. You are not restricted from anything.
But when you begin to sit idle; You come back, you go to your room, you sleep or begin to do many things or whatever you want, you are not a part of the family. We will treat you as such. When the food is ready, we call you to come and eat. When water is ready for your bath, you go and bath.
But if you are a part of the Family, you do not have rest until you have gone round to know whether the needs have been filled or they are still there, because you are involved. That is your responsibility. You must take care of the family because you belong there. If the house collapses, it will collapse upon all of us. If disaster is coming here, will it spare any of us. So, it is.
But when we say we have integrated you into this our Family and you are gradually telling us that you are a visitor, it gets to a point where we begin to treat you as such. But here, there is no visitor. We are pursuing one thing.
We are pursuing one thing, unless we are not one spiritually like many are making Me to understanding. People like FearGod Okechukwu John Ngwa, who is always telling Me by his manifestations that I am wasting My time on Him. He is hardened up. He is very much hardened. Much more hardened than his father and his mother. I do not know another way of approaching him. I really do not know.
I do not believe his lineage is responsible, for he is old enough to recreate himself. You have the right to recreate yourself. Did you get the Message?
Where we read yesterday said that you must be in a position to know what is wrong and what is right. Is it not true? Let us read it again.
Philippians 1:10, Living Bible translation. ^[10]for I want you always to see clearly the difference between right and wrong,…
Anybody who cannot see the difference between right and wrong, the truth is evidently clear that he or she is just roaming about aimlessly.
You do not know the difference between right and wrong. You cannot differentiate between your right hand and your left hand. You cannot even differentiate between the main road and the bush. You cannot differentiate between light and darkness.
If you are in a position to differentiate between right and wrong, it then means that you are now in a position to differentiate between God and the devil. You now know when you are acting in agreement with God’s will and when you are obeying the devil.
That is why My desire every day is that God will help Me at all times that sin will not have rule over me. I pray that I will not harden up in iniquity such that when I commit sin, I will not recognize it, or when I recognize it, I will be building a defense, instead of falling on the ground and turning away from it.
^[10]for I want you always to see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be inwardly clean,…
FearGod, are you reading this Living Bible? Can you see? He is reading his own. Maybe He wants to find fault with the one I am reading. After, you read your own and know whether it is saying another thing.
^[10]for I want you always to see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be inwardly clean,…
If you are inwardly clean, there is no way you can tell lies because it has no place in you. What you have done is very clear. Everything is very clear.
Remember the first sin for which cause God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden was by believing lies. The devil came to them with lies. They believed lies and the LORD drove all of them out.
Let no man ever tell you that you can lie to God and get away with it. You can never lie to God aNd get away with it. Take note of what I am saying.
Ananias lied before God under grace that bringeth salvation. Did he get away? The wife Saphira came and lied before God. Did she escape?

I am posted here for a purpose. You are the purpose for which cause I am here. I am here to get you reconciled with God. That is why I came with the message of reconciliation, opening your eyes that you may know the truth. If you like, get offended. No apologies for speaking the truth. I know the way. I know where I am going. I know what I am doing. I am making no mistake. ……. Any God that does not exist physically does not exist. He is imaginary. If God is a spirit, then we, wearing His image, will also remain spirits. Because we are human beings, God also became a human being. Where do we look for Him? In the midst of human beings. Who will believe our report?

THE SON OF MAN

BRIDAL WATCH (NO PLACE TO HIDE) VOL. 6; Preached on Sunday 24^th April, 2016 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 78 vs. 35 – 36 & Pg. 128 vs. 79 – 80

ERROR HAS NO DEFENSE

The Bible said that the devil is the father of all liars, for he was a liar from the very beginning of the world and abode not in the truth. He never for one day lived the life of the truth, for the brain, instead of changing the mind, the brain was circumventing and bringing out things he will use as defense for error.

Error has no defense. There is no good way of doing a wrong thing. So, let the devil never fool any of you into thinking that there is a good way of doing a wrong thing or that there is an approved time or approved condition for wrong doing. It does not exist.
Even those who did wrong under pressure, and gave it as a reason, “The people mounted pressure on me. They were threatening me. For that reason, I obeyed them”, did God set them free?
There is no reasonable excuse before God. It is better to speak the truth than to begin to coin out or device a defense against evil. Better speak the truth in love. Whether you like it or not, it means nothing. You have freed your conscience.
Do you know that lying is the root of every evil in a man? The first sin a man commits without going to school is telling lies. Nobody goes to school to learn how to tell lies. Nobody is taught how to tell lies.
That is why I want you to know that man, from the beginning is ladened with sin. He was conceived in sin, shaped in sin and was born into the world full of sin. He opened his eyes and embraced sin. Sin became a part of him, for which cause a Saviour was sent.
This time, to complete the redemption plan of God, THE SON OF MAN is sent. One that is born like unto any of you, drawn from among you, speaking your language and having everything in common with you, traversing and passing through all other experiences you are passing through. So he is not exempted. This is so that he might be your Succourer if you are in that horrible condition, seeing that He had already experienced it.
Reference: IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH: THE GRAIL MESSAGE Volume 2 by Abd-Ru-Shin; Chapter 50: THE SON OF MAN. Whereas the Son of God was born directly into His earthly Mission, the Son of Man had to traverse a far wider sphere before He could enter upon the beginning of His actual Mission.
As a condition for the fulfilment of His task, which in comparison to that of the Son of God was more terrestrial, the Son of Man, coming as He did from the highest Heights, also had to descend into the deepest depths; not only in the beyond but also here on earth, so that He might personally “experience” all the misery and suffering man is heir to.
Only then will He be in the position, when His Hour comes, to intervene effectively in their shortcomings and help to bring about changes! For this reason, He could not merely stand beside the experiences of mankind, but had to stand in the midst of them through His own personal experiences. He even had to stand in and suffer under the bitter side of life.
Again it was only for the sake of men that He had to serve His time of apprenticeship in this way! But it is just on account of this that people will try to reproach Him in order to make His task more difficult as they had done previously with Christ, because the human spirit with all its limitations can never understand such high guidance, being only able to judge by externals!
If you cannot share My experience with Me, you do not belong to Me. If your experiences are not mine, you are off the track. You are off the track. Believe what I am saying to be true and faithful, worthy of all acceptation—global acceptance. I am not here to fool anybody.
Philippians 1:10, Living Bible translation. ^[10]for I want you always to see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be inwardly clean, no one being able to criticize you from now until our Lord returns. Fine!
See his own encouraging words. Is it now that somebody will be encouraging you that your hearts should be filled with iniquity and ladened with evil thoughts so that you begin to fool people around you into believing that you are godly when you are ungodly?
Hear Me very well. God has separated the two. Charisma is not Character. Charisma is not Character. The two Cs are different from each other. If you do not have the Spirit of truth, there is no way you can know the difference between Charisma and Character.
Meaning of CHARISMA: Merriam-webster dictionary. [1] “A personal magic of leadership, arousing special popular loyalty or enthusiasm for a public figure [such as a political leader]” [2] A special magnetic charm or appeal.
Synonyms of CHARISMA: Allure, appeal [attractiveness], captivation, enchantment, fascination, glamour, magic, seductiveness, witchery.
Meaning of CHARACTER: Merriam-webster dictionary. [1a] One of the attributes or features that make up or distinguish an individual. [b] ¹a feature used to separate distinguishable things into categories. ²The aggregate of distinctive characteristics of a breed, strain or type. [c] The complex of mental and ethical traits marking and often individualizing a person, group or nation. [d] Main or essential nature especially as strongly marked and serving to distinguish. [2] Person. Individual. [3] Moral excellence and firmness. [4] Reputation [5] Position, capacity [6] Reference [8] Character applies to the aggregate moral qualities by which a person is judged apart from intelligence, competence, or special talent [9] Character applies to a peculiar or distinctive quality of a thing or a class.
Synonyms of character: Icon, Sign, Symbol
Comparison of the two Cs: CHARISMA VS CHARACTER by Stuart Mackenzie; Maynard leigh Associates, 18^th May 2021. “The main difference between the two is that while charisma deals with the external magnetism, character focuses on the inner qualities which make up an individual and draws others to those qualities.”
If you want to see the attributes of charisma, look at politicians when they are soliciting the votes of the electorate. Listen to their sweet words. See their false humility. All of them will be easily entreated and approachable. They will be shaking people’s hands as they walk on the streets, looking friendly to all.
It is there and then that you see them giving generous gifts to everybody. They are bribing the people’s consciences. You think that they are with the people. Wait until they ascend to that point. They become thin gods that can never be approached by the electorate.
What they put on while campaigning is what we call charisma, not character. Their real characters manifest whenever they are on that throne. Then, you see their characters. Their true selves will manifest. Amen.
So, what I am seeing in many for a long time now, has remained charisma. Their real characters come out from time to time, revealing them for what they really are. Who does that?
Hebrews 4:12-13, Amplified version. Who brings out our real characters? That is the mirror.
¹²For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and [also] sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.
¹³And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, naked and defenseless… And what? Defenseless.
All things are naked, open, exposed to God, and they are defenseless. Why then defend something you know that is defenseless? The devil will try to give you reasons for defense.
William Branham the prophet made it clear in his Message saying, “Every man has a defense for his atrocities. Every man has a defense for his evil character, but has God accepted any?”
No matter how you present them to be very plausible, believable and convincing, has God accepted it. Have you convinced God that you are no longer wrong in all your defense?
Defending illegality means adding salt to injury. You make matters worse because, by that, it became evidently clear that it was a deliberate act that was committed and hidden. Commit and hide—evidence of willful sin.
The Bible said, “If you say you are holy; you are righteous and you have done this and that, HAS GOD BEEN CONVINCED?” Have you convinced God of your self-assumed holiness and right-standing? Have you convinced God? Is God convinced?
Hebrews 4:12-14, Amplified version. ¹²For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and [also] sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.
¹³And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, naked and defenseless to the eyes of Him with Whom we have to do. Amen!
All things are open, naked and defenseless in the eyes of God Whom we are having dealings with.
That is why oftentimes, you say you can deceive man, but can you deceive God? You can deceive man, thinking that you have won your case, but have you deceived God? Can a man deceive God?
Every attempt you are making to circumvent the truth will lead you to deeper hell. This is the spirit that is killing everybody in Ngwa, even their Pastor Geoffery Ohiaogu, who is so crafty and subtle that he thinks that he has the greatest intelligence in Abia State civil service. And today, look at where it is landing him.
I apprehended another case like that few days ago amidst the Elders. I said, “How our people have refused to learn from others.” Even if the heathens are doing it, why should it be traced among us?
When you want to join any system, do you not know the rules and regulations governing that system? If the retiring age is said to be 60 years of age or 35 years of service, whichever that comes first, and you signed in, it is binding on you.
Then before you enlist in that service, you first of all, examine your age. From your age, if you are recruited, you know how many years you are going to serve. That is why the service is not for you.
It was there before you came. It will be there while you go. You started one day, and you are leaving another day. That seat you are occupying, somebody occupied it before. So, nobody should use it as his own retirement residence. No! It is not an old age residence that will accommodate you and your grandchildren.
Of course, government is cementing that evil. If they want to sanitize the civil service, they know what to do, for too many people that are there are over-aged people that have outlived their usefulness in the service.
Now, they have come so low as to making regulations that teachers will be dying in their offices. They will be dying while teaching.
We were clamouring that they should reduce the retiring age to 55. Now, they have increased it to 65, creating no room for the teaming graduates to be employed, for those who are there will remain there until their legs will be shaking. Some will become blind that they can no longer read out what is written in the textbooks while youngsters are roaming the streets.
This is another way of paying back the electorate they used in the elections by elongating their stay in the service, for they bribed the various school systems.
All that helped in the rigging of the elections were school dons. Some of them were professors, while some were vice chancellors who helped in the rigging of the election. Classroom teachers were returning officers and supervisors.
A good number of them became ad-hoc staff, while some were full staff and at the same time, staff of their state governments. People occupying both federal and state government appointments at the same time as if they do not know the legal implications.

Brethren, The Resurrected Body is in the Bride. Who will speak and it will come to pass? God! Remember, that is the One Still Small Voice speaking in the midst of many voices, but His own is distinct, hidden in simplicity somewhere in the wilderness. A Voice away from all! The Message of the Son of Man can be summarized in a statement titled, “Heaven made possible.” Do you know that He was born under the law? And lived under the law? Do you know that? But having a Ministry to liberate as many as were in bondage to those laws.

THE SON OF MAN

BE MINDFUL OF THE WORDS THAT WERE SPOKEN AGAINST YOU; preached on Sunday 8^th January 2012 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 26 vs. 19 – 20

THE SIMPLICITY OF GOD CAN NEVER OVERLAP HIS LORDSHIP OVER ALL FLESH

Let us be careful. We cannot do what the heathens are doing and escape the punishment meant for it. The Bible said, “If you be a Jew,…” Hear Me very well. If you know you are a Jew, but you refuse to obey the Torah, and a Gentile obeys the Torah. That Gentile will be considered saved, but the Jew who disobeyed the Torah will be condemned.

So, you are not a Jew because you are born in Israel or in any part of the Jewish land. You are an Israeli if you are found in obedience to God.
If a Gentile obeys, would God not confer the right of citizenship to him? And then deny the right of citizenship to an Israeli—a Jew who refused to obey.
SO, THE SALVATION OF GOD IS STRICTLY TIED TO OBEDIENCE TO HIS WORD. As long as you are not ready to obey, you are giving God good good reasons; admissible reasons to remove you from his salvation plan every day.
You cannot tell Me that you do not know what is right and what is wrong. You must know the truth before you tell lies. He that does not know the truth does not tell lies. What is truth? What is a lie? A lie is nothing but truth perverted.
Does the person who does not know the truth tell lies? You knew the truth before ever you start telling lies. You know what you have done. What you do not know is that which will befall you. We know what we have done, but what will happen to us is beyond our imaginations. How God will look at it is beyond our imaginations.
So, let us be very careful the way we think, the way we talk and the way we act, for all of them must be brought to focus. All!
Yesterday, I reminded the Elders that I am not a Messenger to any Church Age. I am not a Messenger to any Church Age. There is no 8^th Messenger.
And of all the 7 Messengers, only one received just a slight supernatural vindication of a Prophet. The rest never saw anything. There was nothing called the Glory—the Shekinah. Nothing!
Only the forerunner received a portion of the spirit. And he told them about the One that will come after him, Whose Stool he was laying the foundation. He is no other Person but the Deity Himself—the Elohim.
He is not going to be a Messenger of any Church Age. Rather He has been the One, the Ancient of days, coming with a Message straight from the Bible.
With the Ancient Message, He will bring back the Ancient Pillar of Cloud, for it takes the Ancient Message; Ancient teachings and doctrines to bring back the Ancient Cloud.
When the Ancient Cloud revealed Himself few years ago to the Jews there—the Jews, they exclaimed, even the Palestinians who were there, including the soldiers and everybody. It was carried in the dailies. They shouted, “The Cloud has returned to Israel.”
The Pillar of Cloud has returned to Israel and Israel shouted for joy, for that day, the Pillar of Cloud gave them the victory, and they labelled it, “OPERATION PILLAR OF CLOUD”, which means that God Himself gave them that victory as He has always been doing. He showcased Himself. They thought that he has already returned to stay. No! He went back.
Now, Israel knew that they have been living all these years without the Pillar of Cloud. Their enemies knew that the Pillar of Cloud that departed from Israel long long time ago visited them.
Do you welcome one that has not come back from a journey? Israel knew. Their enemies knew too that He that shielded Israel has left Israel long long time ago.
Hence, from all the corners of the land, they were fighting wars. They were killed randomly, but that day, Israel never lost a soldier. But the LORD discomfited the Palestinians, scattered them and they went on their heels, for all their missiles were obstructed by the Cloud. All their shootings were blocked by the Cloud.
They lifted their eyes and they saw how the Cloud barricaded and created a demarcation between the boundaries of Israel and the Palestinians.
What is more? They could not even behold the people they were shooting, for the Cloud formed a dew, blocking everything. They screamed that the Cloud has returned to Israel.
So they knew when the Cloud left Israel. Israel also acknowledged, “The Cloud has returned to us”, but they never knew that He came to visit them. To show them that he was on His way back, He went back from where He left, for He is coming to see them.
Israel will receive Him from afar, “Behold! Your God cometh from afar”. He is coming from the Gentiles, for He migrated to the Gentiles. When He is through or whenever He shall be through with the Gentiles, He will come back and bring the two sticks together.
[The LORD spoke directly to someone in the Fellowship] You are a devil in human form. Do you know what I see? I see Satan standing, and not ordinary man. Your father never spoke to you. Only amazing grace is sustaining you here this morning.
Israel knew that the Pillar of Cloud had left them. Their enemies also knew that the Pillar of Cloud had left them. He is no longer in their midst. They know where He is.
But now they have seen the Cloud. They are rejoicing in hope. That is why you watch Israel in the websites. Oftentimes, they come first.
Because I have over-delayed, they are now angry. Some are tired of going to the websites, “When is He coming to sojourn with us? We have seen Him. We have seen Him.”
Are you surprised that a retired police officer went to Israel on pilgrimage to Jerusalem? You saw the woman. A highly placed woman went to Jerusalem on pilgrimage.
While having interactions with fellow pilgrims, they discovered that she came from Nigeria, and they began to enquire from her, “Why are you here? What are you coming to do in Israel? This is Jerusalem. Do you want to see Bethlehem or Calvary? What have you come to do? Why are you here? What you are looking for is in your country, and we are thinking of coming over there. Have you not heard about Him? Have you not seen Him? The Person you are looking for is in your country. And we are jealous of Nigeria.”
Remember the prophecy which said that this nation that was known for corruption, in the end, must be known for righteousness. One will hold the hand of his neighbour and say, “Let us go to Him for God is in Nigeria.”
Reference: Pa S. G. Elton – A missionary and a legend of Nigeria’s Pentecostal Revival [1986] “Nigeria and Nigerians will be known for corruption worldwide. But the tide will turn and Nigeria will be known for righteousness worldwide. MANY SHALL TAKE HOLD OF HIM THAT IS A NIGERIAN SAYING, “WE WILL GO WITH YOU, FOR WE HAVE HEARD THAT GOD IS WITH YOU.””
Look at when the prophecy went forth, before many of you were born. God hidden in one of the despised places in Africa—in one of the jungles that is greatly despised. Yet, that is the Chief Cornerstone.
I do not know, but let Me say this. What does it profit a man or a woman; what does it profit a youth to gain the whole world and lose his or her soul? You lose your soul in hell where you will be in eternal torment.
People out there may not know what we are saying, and may not take you serious, because you think you are having a normal experience. No!
Your encounter with God is a supernatural encounter, for among the whole people here on earth, you are the only group of people that have been privileged to see the Elohim in human form in the supernatural estate to be photographed and showcased round the whole world.
And all who are acquainted with his characteristic features, using all ancient manuscripts adjudged the manifestations to be true. And you think God is displaying them in vain.
To others, God is just an imagination. To every other group, they imagine what God will look like. But watch what manifested. They are nothing but what the Scriptures say you must watch out for. Others preached but you received the visitation live.
So, to us in this glorious Faith, God is real. To the rest, God is abstract. If God is real, it must affect our lives positively.
Anybody who is misbehaving when God has revealed Himself, is misbehaving because he has not acknowledged the Deity. He does not know that he is standing before somebody who has the right to stop his breathe and to stop his boast. Whatever you are planning or whatever you are thinking, He has the right to stop it there.
Get Proverbs Chapter 16 from verse 1. We read it yesterday. Get it from your Living Bible there. He has the right to stop your breathe, to stop your plans and to take you to the world beyond.
And that is the Personality Who is standing every day, chatting and eating with you, telling you, “Feel My hand. Feel My body. I have flesh and blood.” You think that simplicity has overlapped his Lordship over you? Is it not blindness? THE SIMPLICITY OF GOD CAN NEVER OVERLAP GOD’S LORDSHIP OVER ALL FLESH.
But to those who do not belong to God, His simplicity is foolishness to them. It makes Him equal with them.
[The LORD still talking to someone in the Fellowship] I knew that this young man never came to serve God from the beginning. He came for something else. Very soon, you will know why he came. I will now help him to achieve it publicly.
Proverbs 16:1-3, Living Bible. ^[1]We can make our plans, but the final outcome is in God’s hands. The final outcome of all our plans is in God’s hands.
^[2]We can always “prove” that we are right,… We can always prove to everybody that we are right. Right in our own estimations. By our thinking, we think we are right.
We can always tell people, “I do not know what I have done o! My hands are clean o! My heart is clean o!” Is it not in your own eyes that it is so? God must prove it.
^[2]We can always “prove” that we are right, but is the Lord convinced? ^[3]Commit your work to the Lord, then it will succeed.
Proverbs 16:1-3, Message Bible. ¹Mortal men make elaborate plans, but God has the last word. Mortal men make what? Elaborate plans, but God has the final say. The final Authority is God. If God does not authorize it, you are wasting your time. An Igbo adage says that one who runs ahead of his God, dies while running.
²Humans are satisfied with whatever looks good;… Human beings are satisfied with whatever looks good in their own estimation. In their estimation, they see nothing wrong. Does it matter?
…God probes for what is good. ³Put God in charge of your work, then what you’ve planned will take place.
Proverbs 16:1-2, Amplified version. ¹THE PLANS of the mind and orderly thinking belong to man, but from the Lord comes the [wise] answer of the tongue. ²All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, [Pure!] but the Lord weighs the spirits (the thoughts and intents of the heart).
So, lean not on your own understanding. If you want to succeed, learn of Me. Learn of God.
I am using the Bible to create more faith in you that those who were there long ago spoke about this same thing. No contradiction whatsoever.
But if you had anchored your Faith and volition on THE SON OF MAN, I would have set the Bible aside long long time ago, and then you continue with the spoken Word.
But I have noticed in you that you do not have the love of God in your heart. That the written Word means nothing to you and the Spoken Word is useless nonsense.
If the fear of God is not created in you through the written Word, the Spoken Word cannot instill the fear of God in you, for you will not see the difference between you and the person God is using to talk to you. You raise yourself as equals. You do not know that there is a difference between A and B. Why? You have not discovered the difference between God and devil. You have not discovered the difference between falsehood and truth [true living and right living].
True and right living! You cannot separate between true and right from wrong living [evil living]. All of them will clog together. They mean the same thing to you. Amen!
