NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE DOING, LEARN OF ME. IF YOU HAVE NOT LEARNT OF ME, DO NOT EVER BOAST; DO NOT BRAG. IF YOU ARE BOASTING OUTSIDE CHRIST, YOUR BOASTING IS USELESS NONSENSE, MAN OR WOMAN ALIKE. LET HIM THAT GLORY, GLORY
IN THAT HE KNOWS THE LORD, HE HAS LEARNT OF THE LORD. HOW CAN YOU BE A PART OF THE LORD WHEN YOU HAVE NOT LEARNT OF HIM? LEARN OF ME; LEARN OF MY QUALITIES.

WE MUST PATTERN AFTER OUR ICON
Remain Blessed my brethren. I thank the Almighty God who has granted us His Love and Mercy to be partakers of what He is doing in our own day. To Him be the whole Honor and Glory as I share with you this little exhortation which I title: WHY IT MUST BE THIS GREAT FAMILY OF THE SON OF MAN –APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA.
2. Though the whole world will deny Him, there must be one righteous Man whose righteousness will envelop His family – His family, if they have the revelation of who He is and any other person that may have the same revelation, they will be accommodated in His righteousness.
3. It is an indisputable fact that whenever Almighty God wants to take flesh, He takes it through the course of Nature using the womb of a woman as the incubator which metamorphosis into the birth of a full-fledged human being. A supernatural Human being.
4. This is what God’s Elects in this generation have been enjoying. The Greatest Treasure mankind has ever come face to face with.
5. Let us go to the Scriptures to see why it must be this precious family. Galatians 3:16(LB): “Now, God gave some promises to Abraham and his Child. And notice that it doesn’t say the promises were to his children, as it would if all his sons—all the Jews—were being spoken of, but to his Child—and that, of course, means Christ.”
6. If God’s promise is to Abraham and His child which of course is Christ. Then the question we must ask ourselves is; do we have Christ with us today? If the answer is yes, the next question is who is Christ?
7. Let us use the Scriptures in answering this question. JOHN 1:1-3 (AMP) … ”In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself. He was present originally with God. All things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him was not even one thing made that has come into being.”
8. Colossians 1:16 (LB) – “Christ himself is the Creator who made everything in heaven and earth, the things we can see and the things we can’t; the spirit world with its kings and kingdoms, its rulers and authorities; all were made by Christ for his own use and glory.”
9. Now, it is scripturally clear that Christ is the Almighty Himself made flesh and dwells here on Earth with us, fulfilling His word –Emmanuel, God with us. Zephaniah 3:17 (LB) – “For the Lord your God has arrived to live among you. He is a Mighty Saviour. He will give you victory.”
10. “He has come out from His dwelling place” He is now dwelling in our midst as a human being like us. So, stop looking up and down. We are now living with God.
11. Now, the next question is this; Who is this personality that is being talked about? Let us go to the message: CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH-Preached on Wednesday 12thJune,2019 by the LORD HIMSELF at the Bridal Lodge Nsugbe; Pg. 49:52 – 54 … “Who is this personality that is being talked about? I am the one being spoken about. Do you understand what we are saying?
12. Who are the people to whom this message is directed? You are the people. All of you that are sitting down on these seats, from my wife down to all of you.
13. I want to hit the nail on the head. Look and see that the personality we are talking about is this person [THE SON OF MAN] sitting here with you and remains the same person that is holding it and revealing it to you. Are you not a blessed people?”
14. Yes, we are truly, a blessed people, for it pleased God that He opened our eyes after bringing us in to know who the Son Of Man is, discussing with him, and walking close to him. It is really a great privilege.
15. PG 50:56 – 65. “What is the reason you have chosen to walk with the Son of Man, to be with Him and to be with His family? If it is not for what God is revealing now, if it is not for you to escape eternal destruction and eternal punishment, you should know that of all men, you are the most miserable.
16. If I should be asked to mention the person that is most favoured of all human beings, I will say that my wife is the most favoured. She was the one who prayed when she did not know the personality of God that God should make it possible for her to know who He [God] is.
17. Her whole plea was for God to help her know whom the personality called God is, so that she can worship Him. She was making this prayer for herself as a spinster. She did not pray for husband. All she asked for was that God should give her a husband that will help her to be practically acquainted with God.
18. She never prayed for the one that will come and buy her a car, build a house for her and then she will keep giving birth until the whole house is filled with children.
19. God looked into her heart and knew that her prayer was a request that was rare for a spinster to make, for the thing that blinds young girls are different. God now singled her out and kept her where she will get married as one that has another Spirit.
20. At the end of the day, God who has been hiding Himself since all the ages. He is the God that hideth Himself, an expert in concealing Himself [Isaiah 45:15]; He hid Himself from her.
21. The same Almighty God came her way in the form of a human being and hid Himself completely in everything. If He wants to talk to her He drops few words and closes His mouth.
22. The first instruction I dropped for her was when we were already living together and I told her, “Look at me. Do not ever take me the way you take other human beings. I am not an ordinary human being like that. Any day I talk to you and you turn and look at me with disregard, that day you will have trouble. If care is not taken, you may die”.
23. She is here you can ask her. Little by little, I kept on revealing things to her. Things were happening, both the good ones and the bad ones. It became like a school to her and she was learning.
24. I then placed the word of God before her. I kept on training her and she grew beyond those that started before her, even the Pastors. She was growing with me on every passing day”.
25. The Son of Man has raised loyal and obedient children because He has a faithful wife who never joked with His word for one day. She never disputed or argued with Him for one minute. She readily accepted commands, responsibilities with joy even without pre-notice.
26. If she had ever joked with the Master’s word, disputed or argued with Him; She would have influenced the children to do same, but glory be to God for the manifestation today is the interpretation.
27. We must pattern after this great family of God amidst criticism, cruel misunderstanding and we should never veer off the track. We should remain in habitual fellowship with Him our God and strive daily to conduct our affairs not according to our will but according to His will for He remains our Masterpiece.
28. Let us trace further this great personality. For it was said in the scripture that Melchizedek placed a blessing upon mighty Abraham the first and most honoured of all God’s chosen people.
29. Hebrews 7:7(LB) – And, as everyone knows, a person who has the power to bless is always greater than the person He blesses. SO, WHO WAS THIS MELCHIZEDEK THAT BLESSED ABRAHAM?
30. Let us go now to the message: THE REVELATION OF THE NAME OF GOD IN ALL THE AGES [THE BACKGROUND] – Preached on the 4th November, 2012 by the Almighty Himself.
31. Page 102:4-6. …“This is God’s own perfect will and He did it before many witnesses and He is confirming it every day. That surely, now we know that the Son of Man and the father are one for in Him is the father revealed.
32. He was absolutely a Man by the Name of Melchizedek who was the King of Jerusalem not a priest but a King without a father, without a mother, without the beginning of days or Ending of days, The Son of God, who is this?
33. This was Jehovah, this was Almighty God Himself; It could be no other. You see, He is the real Son of Man, the Jehovah, God Himself for this is Melchizedek.”
34. So, we see that we have Melchizedek in our midst whom we must pattern after, our Icon. It is not just milling around Him, not cooking food for Him, not sleeping with Him, drinking and eating with Him, but doing everything as He commands us.
35. We must be habitually acquainted with Him even to the point of having constant fellowship with Him. When we say we have found grace, unmerited favour in His sight, that goes to show that we know what others do not know. That is a clear fact that we should behave better.
36. Let us take this Godly wish and Godly advice from the Scripture for we are living in a very delicate Hour and it calls for caution.
Colossians 2:2-4 [LB] “This is what I have asked of God for you that you will be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love, and that you will have the rich experience of knowing Christ, with real certainty and clear understanding. For God’s secret plan, now at last made known, is Christ Himself. In Him lie hidden all the mighty, untapped treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I am saying this because I am afraid that someone may fool you with smooth talk.”
37. The Comforter, the Spirit of truth who the world does not know is the Son of Man and He has taken us to all the truth. He is the greatest treasure to us and He has transferred Godly wisdom and knowledge to us, that cannot and can never be gotten from any other source. So, do not allow anybody to fool you with smooth talk.
38. Let us go back to the Message: THE REVELATION OF THE NAME OF GOD IN ALL THE AGES [THE BACKGROUND] Preached on 14th November, 2012. Page 31:41-42 … “Now, look at where I am striking. He looked at Peter straight in his eyes and turned to the rest of His Apostles and said, Peter upon this Rock I will build “MY” personal pronoun. Not our Church, not their church.
39. Who was speaking? Christ. Through who? Through Jesus. The father that was dwelling in Jesus was making the pronouncement concerning His own church. He knew that there will be many churches.”
40. PAGE 35:53-54 … “There are too many churches in the World today but look at where we are feasting with Him. If you refuse to come into this most holy faith you will not see anything concerning His attributes.
41. All we are saying will be sounding like stories to you. Even some times when you hear, you will doubt. However, as many of us that were born in this faith, you are born in the church; we are born in the church, we are not added, no we were born.
42. If you were not born to a family, you are a stranger to that family. For you to be a bonafide member of that family, you must be born into the family. Thus, we were born into this family. We are no longer strangers or foreigners; We are fellow citizens and share the same inheritance, benefits with the common wealth of Israel.”
43. Ephesians 2:19-20 [LB] – “Now you are no longer strangers to God and foreigners to heaven, but you are members of God’s very own family, citizens of God’s country, and you belong in God’s Household with every other Christian [i.e., Child of God].
What a foundation you stand on now: The Apostles and Prophets; and the cornerstone of the building is Jesus Christ Himself” [THE RESURRECTED BODY]
44. Now not tomorrow, every elect is not a stranger and foreigner but member of God’s very own family, citizens of God’s country, and you belong in [not to] God’s household.
45. You and I are standing on a solid foundation, Christ, The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed Be His Most Holy Name]. That is the salvation name for this our own day and age.
46. There is no other name given among men in this day where by any human being can be saved except the name – Peter Christ; Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed Be His Most Holy Name].
47. THE NAME OF GOD IS REVEALED TO HIS PEOPLE IN ALL THE AGES [THE INTRODUCTION] Preached 27th October, 2012, By the Lord Himself. PAGE 106:36-37. …. “If He did not promise to reveal His name you might be wondering what is happening.
48. Thus, God revealing His Name to His own people, whose people we are. God coming down live, from that day this thing happened here and are still happening, to every seed of God that is here in this faith, it became clearer that all these years that it has been God and God Himself talking to us.
49. Yet, we were calling Him Brother Odoemena [Blessed be His Holy Name]. If we had known this all this while, we would not have misbehaved our selves. Yet in spite of this, some are still misbehaving. Some are still opening their mouth even wider.”
50. PAGE 111:51-52 … “Now at last, we have come to recognize that it is God and God that is speaking to us, we are having dealings with God. If there is no other message you will go home with, go with ISAIAH 52:6. Whatever is that revealed Name of God to you, write it down. But let it be known to you by revelation that the Name of God in every Age is revealed to the people of God and the people of God must Have God in person for their Teacher.
51. They must come to a point where they are having that fellowship with God – The Father and with The Son.” Let us read that Scripture: – ISAIAH 52:6 [LB] – “Therefore, I will reveal my Name to my people and they shall know the power in that name. then at last, they will recognize that it is I; yes, I who speak to them.” That is, in time to come which is now, “You will acknowledge that I am God and that I have spoken to you”.
52. Let us continue in the Message: THE NAME OF GOD IS REVEALED TO HIS PEOPLE IN ALL THE AGE [THE INTRODUCTION]. PAGE 113:58-59 – “Without that Name the father will not Hear your prayers. Without that Name, nothing moves. It remains stand still.
53. I want it to be a Revelation that will sink down in the ears of all and Sundry, including infants. Stop cheating yourselves, do not be in the water and soap will be entering your eyes.
54. PAGE 121:1-4 “THE SALVATION LINK FOR YOUR AGE HAS BEEN REVEALED, PAGE 33:10-17 – ‘I show you something you know. I put you in remembrance. Now you have seen Him revealed, the veil has been rent into two before your eyes.
55. You have seen the Father; you have seen APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA. Has it become a revelation that APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA is the name of God?
56. In every age, there is a revealed Name of God. This is your own age; you must accept the things that are meant for your own day.
57. When the voice said, “I have placed Him before you as My Own Angel, My Name is upon Him”. Did He mention the Name? He kept it secret. In addition, He did not want to come out and begin to announce it, He started by giving you teachings so that at the End you will Name Him.
58. At the End, you are the one that will identify Him. Once you identify Him, you will identify His Name. God cannot exist without a Name”.
59. If the Son of Man does not know who He is and His mission on earth, will He be speaking this way?
60. CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH, PAGE 59:5-8 “But you to Whom He has revealed Himself, there are testimonies following this revelation of how God is vindicating everything, and that He was prophesied longtime ago to appear here on earth in this last days. Even before the Bible was written or compiled, the Prophesies had gone forth about Him and His mission.
61. Before your eyes, these things are coming to pass and you and I are in this End time generation when all these things are fulfilling as the Prophet Enoch saw and Prophesied.
62. What will be your condition? What answer are you going to give, if tomorrow, you are not saved? Will you say that God hates you? If God hates you, will He bring you into His family? If He hates you, will He reveal this truth to you?
63. You are the one that hates yourself, for you have filled your heart with useless things. You will get that which is important to you. If you know that thing which is more important for you, come all out and pursue it.”
64. PAGE 61:13 “Somebody cannot be outside and say Hi. But what about you that have the privilege of coming inside, having seen Him and also testified about Him?”
65. PAGE 63:19-20 “So, if you are among the people among whom He said He will reveal Himself, and you become blind spiritually and physically, even to the Extent of not knowing the personality in your midst, you do not know He that is speaking to you and you do not know the personality before whom you are showcasing your stupidity, you are accumulating Judgment for yourself.
66. One that is afar off is better than you are. One that does not know the Son of Man is better than that person who, after knowing whom The Son of Man is, ate and drank with Him, but you still go ahead living the way you want. You are piling Judgment upon Judgment for yourself every day.”
67. We must have this at the back of our mind as elects of God, we have no other family from now till eternity than the family where The Son of Man is superintending.
68. Let us go to the message: BE CAREFUL THAT YOUR DAILY CHARACTER DOES NOT COUNTER THE TRUTH YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT. Preached on Sunday 29th November, 2020 by The Word Himself at the Bridal Lodge, PAGE 56:14-15. ”I am the Head of The Family of God World Wide, and the Husband Man. I am the Good Shepherd. You are My Flock.
69. So, you have to understand it. That is why you cannot avoid THE SON OF MAN and smell Heaven or Paradise. There is no way you can detach from THE SON OF MAN through willful disobedience to His teachings and smell Paradise. Detaching means eternal separation from God.”
70. PAGE 57:17-26 “This message is not for everybody. It is for this family and for every other Elect. An Elect is one that is chosen for salvation and not for destruction.
71. That is why the Bible said that God never chose us to obtain His wrath but to obtain His Salvation through Christ our Lord.
72. For God hath not appointed us to wrath but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ [1st Thessalonians 5:9 KJV]
73. This message is for this family. Not for everybody because this family must produce the first fruit. M.U.S.T. must!
74. WHY MUST IT BE THIS FAMILY? This is the family of the first born. This is the church of the first Born. Is it not true? The first born among many brethren.
75. First fruit must be harvested from the family, the kingdom, thechurch of the first born among many brethren. Brethren will come quite alright, but the first must come from the first born.
76. As long as God liveth and I live, this is the first family.
77. This is what? The first family. Why? It is the family of the first born. Unto you God first appeared; God took off. Whoever that is the person bearing Gods Name in this generation took off from here. True or false?
78. You have to have this at the back of your mind. So, when you say “I am dwelling with God in His family”, you say it by divine revelation that God has a Home, a dwelling place.
79. And He is not dwelling alone for He is called Ella Elohim. One that dwells with His Entire Family. And then you happen to be a part of that Entire family, dwelling with Him in His own Home; In His own residence, sharing everything in common with Him.”
80. PAGE 62:33-35 “As long as God liveth and I live, this is the first family. First fruit must come from this family! Amen.
81. We have to accept this statement by faith, because when you believe in this statement, it shall be unto you according to your Faith. You May be that first fruit. I may be that first fruit. Anybody can be that first fruit. In other words, there can never be anything IMMORTALITY without you. You know you are in the Number because you are doing the will of your father who is always in direct touch.”
82. PAGE 68:52-54 “So, what am I saying? God is a human being. 100% Human being, 100% God. Once you are practically and personally acquainted with Him, that is the number one step to beginning to learn from Him and understudying Him.
83. If you want to live in Peace with Him. If you want to be His favourite; if you want to be numbered among those He will be cherishing, you have to understudy Him to know His dislikes and His likes.
84. Then, if you are wise and intelligent, you will drop all His dislikes and face His likes. And also imbibe them and let them also become your own likes. Let your life; your choice and those of the president harmonize. Will there be problem again?”
85. Greater than the president is here. Let your choice and those of the Lord – the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings harmonize, and there will be no problem again.
YOUR GOODNESS; YOUR RIGHTEOUS DEEDS MUST BE GENERATED BY THE FEAR OF GOD. OTHERWISE, IT IS UNACCEPTABLE IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. IT BECOMES SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS. IF THE FEAR OF GOD CANNOT COMPEL YOU TO DO RIGHT AND TO AVOID EVIL, IT THEN GOES TO SHOW THAT YOU ARE SERPENT SEED. YOU SEE WHY WHOEVER THAT IS LIVING THE LIFE OF DISOBEDIENCE IS DIRECTLY CHALLENGING GOD’S AUTHORITY, FOR IF THE FEAR OF GOD IS IN YOU, YOU ARE AFRAID THAT GOD WILL PUNISH YOU.

STRIVE TO IMPROVE YOUR RECORD BEFORE GOD
Page 72:62-66 “From the time Adam was created till today, God knows the Names of all that did that which pleased Him. That is why God said in the Bible, “I know you. I know your dwelling places. I call you by your names. And you are Mine” can you imagine? Anybody that is not His, can He call him by his Name? Never!!!
2. “But I know your dwelling place, your going out and your coming in, And your rage against me [ISAIAH 37:28 NKJV]
My sheep hear My voice and I know them, and they follow Me [JOHN 10:27 KJV]
3. God is having nothing to do with people that do not obey Him, but those that serve His interest are His delight. They will live with Him as long as He Lives. Amen!
4. Why? They do those things that please Him. But on the contrary, you are wasting time.”
5. If you have paid heed to all our Lord is saying, why not stop and think, then do as follows: STRIVE TO IMPROVE YOUR RECORD BEFORE GOD – THE SON OF MAN – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BLESSED BE HIS MOST HOLY NAME]. Improve your record from bad to good, from good to better, and from better to best.
6. Natural things type spiritual. A serious-minded student, strives to improve his or her scores [GP]. He or she is never satisfied with whatever scores [GP] he or she had in the past. So is also a serious-minded athlete or sport person. He or she is always striving for a better timing and to set a New National or World Record.
7. So, it is with every true seed of God. He or she will never be satisfied with his or her past record before God. He or she is always striving to make his or her record before God better continually until it gets to the best for the Bible said, Noah, Abraham, Zachariah and Elizabeth, all walked with God and were found perfect in God’s sight.
8. I want us all to carefully go through this message as we learn a lot from the Great Rabbi; He taught us in the message: THE SECRET OF SURVIVAL LIES IN CHRIST. PAGE 31:6-23
9. “If you do not know what you were before, there is no way you will know when change has occurred in your life. This is where we are having our greatest problems. People are just sitting down in the church carrying on with their daily, old, shameless ways of living. They are just carrying on.
10. What he knows is that he is going to church. He reads every sermon Book to himself, follows in the singing and dancing and every other thing, but there is no teaching that will be so striking as to transform his life.
11. When the Gospel is not reforming your life, it is condemning your life. This is what you must know. At any point in time when the word of God goes forth, if it is not reforming your life for the better, it is condemning your life because when you hear, you listen and you refuse to obey, you stand condemned.
12. But when you hear, you listen, you understand and obey, definitely, you have reformed your life. Your life can never be the same again.
13. That is the reason why I always want you to understand that; there is no other God’s power of transformation other than hearing and obeying His Word. The transformation power of God lies in His Word if you obey.
14. One who is an armed robber and hears that God condemns armed robbery and also believes that it is truth, from that day, will he be involved in armed robbery again? No. His life has changed. If he was a fraudster, will he still go ahead with his fraudulent activities?
15. That is why God said in the Book of Prophet Isaiah, “Seek the Lord while you can find Him. Call on him now while He is near. Let the people turn from their wicked deeds.
Let them banish from their minds the very thought of doing wrong! Let them turn to the Lord that He may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for He will abundantly pardon!”
He [God] will wash you and make you New again. [ISAIAH 55:6-7 LB].
16. That is the condition; let the wicked forsake his ways and unrighteous thoughts.
17. What makes you unrighteous? There is no other thing if not the thoughts of your heart. That is the reason why your life can never be right.
18. Anyone who claims to forget things every now and then has something he or she is thinking in his or her heart. There is something such a fellow thinks, is more important which is occupying his or her mind.
19. After all, you do not require anybody to tell you when you are naked and when you are dressed. Nobody commands you to go and put on your cloth. You know when you are supposed to wear your clothe.
20. That sense which makes you take your bath, brush your teeth, that sense with which you dress yourself up, that is what God requires from everybody.
21. That sense you have, no matter how small you think it is, that is what will tell you that, this is morning, this is afternoon and this is night. That sense will tell you to go to bed or to wake up.
22. Once these things are functioning in you, you have no excuse to give. Once these things are functioning in you, you cannot say you do not know what is good and what is bad. You cannot say you do not understand what the Lord is saying.
23. Your duty is this: These things that God is saying, do you actually take it that you are the one God is talking to? Am I taking it because I am the one God is talking to? Or do I see it as a mere story, so that after listening to the fairy tales, we go our way? Or do I think there is a set of people whom these things are meant for? It is coming to you and I why is it coming to us? It is for our own good.
24. When we hear that the thought of God towards us are thoughts of good, peace and progress and not of evil, to give us an expected end. How does He make His thoughts manifest in us? It is through His word.
25. If you do not hear the spoken word from God, you can never know what God is thinking concerning you. It is through the spoken word from God that you know the mind of God concerning you.
26. PAGE 39:26-29 “If you want to show somebody the right path, show it to him when he has not started the journey. It is not done when the person has already missed the way that you now start teaching the fellow. That is our problem today.
27. Our parents are teaching us when we had already strayed away. Unrighteous life has become our habit, our culture. Carelessness, stupidity has dominated our whole lives for years. To flush us becomes a difficult thing.
28. If a hard message comes, you will fear and begin to behave like a normal fellow. When the message seemed to be relaxed a little, you would go back to your old ways again.
29. That goes to show that that person has not understood what we are saying. He thinks that there is something God is gaining from his righteousness. Your righteousness is for your own good. Your unrighteousness is for your damnation. Amen.
30. PAGE 48:11 “This life is a very mighty ocean. You must develop courage, strong heart and will power for you to swim across it. Otherwise; you must get drowned by the ocean of life.”
31. Life is a very mighty ocean that you need to develop courage, strong heart and will power to swim across it, let it be known to you that the Holy Spirit said that the world is a strong wind, and it is blowing every day.
32. PAGE 49:13 “If you do not develop tap root in Christ, definitely, the wind of life will carry you. You will join others. You will be influenced by others.”
33. PAGE 59:35 “This is purely how this life is. You must pay for your carelessness in one way or the other. That is why we say, “Labour today and enjoy tomorrow. Pay now and then you play later.” But if you are playing now, you are going to pay for that playing because you played at the wrong time.”
34. Always have it behind your mind that the problem of the foolish virgins remained carelessness which is what they paid for and will pay for.
35. PAGE 62:1 “If you are wise, you will know that whatever you do now is waiting for you in the future. Whatever you are doing today will determine what your tomorrow will be.”
36. So, what are you doing today to improve your record before The Almighty God – The Son of Man?
37. PAGE 85:1-2 “Why I am saying all these things is for you to understand what we are saying. The secret of your survival, physically, spiritually, materially lies in developing the fear of God which will always restrain you from evil habits.
38. Nothing hinders progress more than evil habits. Evil thoughts produces evil character. Do you know it is a crime against yourself if your brain refuses to function properly so as to give you the desired success? It is a crime against yourself.”
39. PAGE 89:9-12 “There is no way you can walk in a path God is against and retain God’s favour. God is with you while you are with Him. If you forsake God, He must surely forsake you.
40. Thus, if you do not want God to forsake you, walk with God. Abide in Christ, obey His instructions. Walk towards winning God’s approval at all times.
41. Walk towards becoming objects of His pleasure and tomorrow will be brighter than today.
42. You can regret everything you have done in life, but you can never regret serving God. Nobody has ever regretted serving God in Spirit and in Truth! Amen.”
43. Do not allow what we are talking about to slip away from your mind. Always have it behind your mind that when you are striving to improve your record before God – The Son of Man, His enemy and our enemy is at the same time fighting seriously to spoil your record and my record. Let us go back to get furtherinstructions from our Lord and Great Rabbi in the message: BE CAREFUL THAT YOUR DAILY CHARACTER DOES NOT COUNTER THE TRUTH YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT. PAGE 75”
44. “As long as God liveth and I live, this is the first family. You have to acknowledge it. First fruit must come from this family! M.U.S.T. whether the devil likes it or not. I say, whether the devil likes it or not.
45. And this is what the devil is wrestling against. The devil is fighting tooth and nail. He will fight these individuals that inhabits this family dwelling with THE SON OF MAN,
46. He must fight with them, day and night to make sure that they do not become a part of the first fruits that will be harvested.
47. The moment you receive the promises of God, the devil will be set loose to go after you. Do you not know what I am saying?”
48. PAGE 77:10-11 “I am saying that the devil is only following somebody who is possessing the gift of God.
49. The same way, thieves follow somebody who has something they can steal. Is it a lie Brethren?”
50. PAGE 80:19-21 “Know it of a surety that the devil can never operate against you without using you, because you must, first of all, succumb before he will work.
51. The most powerful instrument the devil will use to fight you is you, for when you resist, he will flee, but when you become gullible; when you say “you are highly welcome”, he will begin his operation.
52. When God is in operation, the devil is also in operation. If you yield more to the devil’s side, you will have what we call operational error. Operational error leads to many costly mistakes we regret at the end.”
53. PAGE 85:33-35 “One single mistake nullifies every other good thing you are heading to. So, if you must guide against error, guide against operational error. The idea might be good, but the application wrong. Once the application is wrong, it nullifies the whole idea.
54. That is why God said “When you are correcting somebody, and there is no Love in your heart and in your correction, you that are correcting becomes guilty and the person you are correcting becomes justified, for you were not correcting with Love. All corrections must be done in Love”.
55. Why? The idea is not to kill, but to correct, to put the person back in the right channel. But where Love does not project, the whole idea is completely defeated, no matter how sensible it will be.”
56. PAGE 90 :47-53 “What the devil is fighting is nothing but the gift of God in you; the promises God had already showered on you; what is ahead of you, if you will get to the End.
57. So, he will always try to do everything to divert you. That is why the devil is known for one thing. He plays diversionary roles, so that you will forget your target and forget what you are pursuing.
58. And once your attention is diverted, he will make you to counter what you have taught and what you have believed. You will be countering all.
59. You will be confessing it with your mouth, but using your manifestation to counter it. Who then will believe? for you are the one that has dis-believed yourself because whoever that lives a life contrary to the truth he receives and tells others about it has already dis-believed himself. True or false.
60. If I believe in myself, I will be the number one person to practice what I preach because I believe in myself. I will become the living message everybody will copy from.
61. First fruit. Note it. How I wish that at the end of today, you will go home, go to your beds and then say like I used to say, “I must be numbered among the first fruit. I must be numbered among the first fruits.”
62. So that no matter the way the devil will come and insinuate rubbish, I will give it no attention. If it is money, take! If it is pride, take! Whatever the thing might be, I will make the sacrifice. I will pay the price which others paid, provided that, at the end, I will get my target. Satan, go behind me. Amen.”
63. In closing, let us go to the message: – CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH. PAGE 101:58 “What is the essence of warning? WARNING GOES BEFORE JUDGMENT. The very purpose of warning is to help the hearer to escape from an impending disaster. Anyone who dies in a disaster after being warned ahead of time, died of stubbornness.”
64. This is where I will stop with you for now, but there is a lot more about the Great Family of God, for no human being can survive and be saved outside this family.
65. What is that thing we must understand? God is of a purer eye than to behold iniquity.
66. On this note, I say Remain Blessed in Him Eternally. Amen!
