WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PARADISE EXPLAINED Preached ON Sunday, 12th January 2025 AT THE VOICE OF GOD STUDIO Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe Anambra State, Nigeria BY Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN

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

    Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

    John 10:26-28, KJV

    The king who can destroy Beliar and the demonic powers and restore Paradise is Himself the king of Paradise. The King of primordial time has also become the King of the end time. Here we get a glimpse of the fact that at one time, the role of King of Paradise belonged to the Son of Man. The land beyond, which He represents, is the Paradise that is now lost, to which no earthly man can come. In that Paradise the Son of Man was thought of (at least at one period and in certain circles) as ruling. It is a common feature in late Jewish eschatology that in the end time Paradise, which has now been carried away to an unknown place in the other world, will return to men. The Son of Man, who was at one time thought of as the King of primordial time, will also be the King of the end time in Paradise; and traces of this thought recur in apocalyptic.

    HE THAT COMETH: The Messianic Concept in the Old Testament and Later Judaism by Professor Sigmund Mowickel, first published in 1956 by Abigdon Press

    I have finished My work in the Bride. I am only getting ready to hand you over. The Kingdom does not belong to me; I am surrendering the Kingdom to my Father any moment from now. That day, you will know that I AM HE. Believe it if you can……

    Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

    1. They were doing that, running to and fro before He appeared. When He appeared as the Great Master with the Word of eternal life and they proved Him to be true, faithful, worthy, they accepted Him.
    2. They were convinced and sure about it that He was the only One that has the Word of eternal life in their day.
    3. For that reason, when they were compelled to leave Him, and were even forced out, they refused saying, “To Whom do we go, seeing that You alone has that Word of eternal life we are looking for? We are not following because of milk and honey. We are not following You because of material help like many others.”
    4. This is because immediately He opened the Word of eternal life, millions left. Let us go to Saint John’s Gospel and see whether it is true.
    5. We want to hear from the Master’s Voice. We are not hearing from Paul nor Peter nor James and John. These were witnesses of what happened in their own day.
    6. You are witnesses of what is happening in your own day. True or false? How can you be a witness of what happened in the Acts of the Apostles. Can you? It is a story. Were you there? In the Pentecost, were you there?
    7. Even in Amazu Oil, many of you were not there. You are our children. You heard our reports of what transpired between us and God, and you believed.
    8. Even Jesus said, “Blessed are those who will hear from afar off and they will believe because they trusted those who gave them that report.” Not all of them were privileged to be in the wilderness or in Egypt.
    9. But those that survived in Cannan said, “We heard. Ourfathers told us. How God dealt with them right from Egypt to the wilderness.” And then, they testified of the one that happened when they were crossing River Jordan.They were there with their parents. It was not a story.
    10. From the day you enlisted in this Faith, do you not have any thing that convinced you that you made no mistake? You are your own witness. You are your own Judge.
    11. Do not allow something you know you have proved to be true, which you believed because you know it is true and you have experimented it– Do not allow it to be your condemnation because of people that are condemned spiritually long ago who are still in our midst reading Bible for you.
    12. I was never sent to come and read Bible. I was sent to come and fulfill Bible. I am the fulfilment of all. Everything documented in the Bibecentred around One Who will be revealed.
    13. Saint Paul, preached and preached and said that they should wait when Christ shall be revealed. Saint Peter, the same thing. They prepared the people for revelation of Jesus Christ.
    14. REFERENCE: [1] 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9, KJV. 7and to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
    15. [2] 1 Peter 4:12-13, KJV. 12Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
    16. [3] 1 Peter 5:1, KJV. 1The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
    17. All of them, even Adam, was promised to stay where God said he should stay in the Cave of Treasures, until the day of the revelation of Christ which will happen to mark the end of the world.Only then will he have the hope of coming out from the graveand be a partaker of eternal life.
    18. Nobody has ever stepped into Paradise till this very hour I am here.When the LORD Jesus Christ came, people were thinking that Elijah went to heaven and that Enoch went to heaven.Who told you so?
    19. When he came, what did he say? He said, “Nobody is in heaven except He that came down from heaven.” But those people featured in their days and went away. But simply because they vanished, you could not say where they were, you concluded they went to heaven.
    20. The same way you can conclude that those who resurrected from their graves on the day Christ was still hanging on the cross.
    21. Immediately He shouted, “Eloi, Eloi, lamaSabachthani”, graves opened and over 5000 people were seen that resurrected that day. They trekked to Jerusalem. Eyes saw them. Did they go to heaven? That means, Jesus was in the grave when they went to heaven. Maybe they got to heaven before the Master. Who showed them the way?
    22. Reference: Matthew 27:51-53, KJV. 51And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
    23. They are still with you here. Nobody went anywhere. They are here. David is still here, who holds the Key, though the Key is now in the hands of somebody you know.
    24. David is not My Father and will never be My Father. I say, David will never be My Father. He is notMy Father. I existed before David was born. I was here before Abraham was born.
    25. If you know the oldest man that lived here on earth, I was there before that person came into existence. I am the pre-existing One. I pre-existed before anything that was formed or created came into existence. I pre-existed.
    26. Have I not been telling you this all this time? Have I minced words? Have I not documented all these things and posted to the whole world?
    27. REFERENCE:[1] CHANGE YOUR HEART AND MIND; Preached on Friday 31st October 1997 at the Household of God Abuja; Pg. 3. I AM THE OLDEST MAN ON EARTH. I have reincarnated several times. I REMAIN THE ONLY BEING THAT CAN TELL YOU HOW OLD THE WORLD IS. Believe it if you can……
    28. [2] BEWITCHED; preached on Wednesday 21st March 2007 at the Household of God, Nasarawa; Pg. 69 vs. 70.I AM THE OLDEST MAN ON EARTH – Forget about My stature. That is why I brag too much. I brag too much because I am the oldest Man that is living on earth. A LIVING LEGEND. Believe it if you can……
    29. [3]ACTION TIME PART 2 (TRAINING OF CHILDREN) CAMP MEETING; preached on Tuesday, 30th December, 1997 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 40 vs. 33 … Listen to Me very well. If you are in this Movement with Me, I AM THE OLDEST MAN IN THIS CHURCH. I AM THE OLDEST MAN IN THIS CONGREGATION. I am telling you pure truth.
    30. [4] GOD HAS A HIDING PLACE VOL. 2; Preached on Sunday 28th April 2013 at the Household of God Onitsha; Pg. 56 vs. 51 I AM THE OLDEST MAN IN THE WORLD. The marriage ceremony of his daughter is over. His in-laws have all gone. he is not cultivating. He is not clearing the bush. What is he doing at home? He can fool you, but he cannot fool the Son of Man. I am older than Him and My Dad died at the right age of ninety-five. I ministered to him until he died.
    31. I ask for refutal by posting it to the whole world that is educated, enlightened andlearned. There is no Age as educated as this Age. Is there any other Age you compare to this Age in terms of academic education, enlightenment and travelling?
    32. We now travel round the whole world.We use rockets. We use astronauts. We use aeroplanes. We use ships.
    33. Do you not know that it is in your own day that you now have electronically propelled ships? Some are solar-propelled. You do not need to use fuel any more. And it speeds more than motor cars.
    34. If your goods are loaded in Malaysia, within three weeks, the ship will get to you here in Nigeria. While traveling from Lagos to London in those days took one year, for you will spend one year on the highseas.
    35. The ship will be anchoring from seaport to seaport, consuming fuel.Sometimes, the fuel gets exhausted and efforts will be made to refuel the ship. Then, you will spend one full year on the high sea.
    36. But today, that same distance is covered by an aeroplane within five hours. If the journey is through land using motor car, it may take about 30 hours.
    37. These days, it takes only three weeks for a ship that was loaded in London to arrive at the Lagos seaport because it is solar-propelled.It does not need your fuel. It has a lot of accumulators.
    38. So, what am I saying? I posted all these things throughout the whole world. What was My aim? I was asking for a refutal. I want somebody to refute and say no.And then, come up with the correct version.
    39. Instead of coming up with refutal you see people coming out and backing it up, raking ancient manuscript that existed before you were born to back up this truth, which means, I AM THE ANCIENT OF DAYS.
    40. I raked up ancient Gospel and the Ancient God confirmed it immediately with the Ancient Cloud.
    41. Let Me tell you. All of you are in danger of being called to question. Since you have read and you have believed for you have witnessed it– You have investigated even using your android handsets that the Cloud is never seen anywhere throughout the whole world among human beings except among the people of the Most High God.
    42. Reference: THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS Volume 3 [The Inscrutable Ways of The Lord] verse 288 & 316.Moses still cherished three other wishes: that the Shekinah might dwell with Israel; that the Shekinah might not dwell with other nations; …[288] … God therefore said to Moses: “As truly as thou livest, I will let My Shekinah dwell among them, so that all may know that I have forgiven Israel. …[316]
    43. So, God is still keeping with that Covenant He made that you will never see this Cloud around a people who do not belong to the Elohim.
    44. And wherever you see that Elohim, look for a Man there. Look for a Man, for that is God’s visitation to His people at all times. There must be a Man that the shekinah will reveal.
    45. If the Shekinah never revealed Joshua, do you think that the people would have subscribed to His leadership? The Shekinah left Moses and then revealed Joshua. Moses bowed down before Joshua. Moses who was the Master became a servant. Everybody was astonished.
    46. Reference:The Legends of The Jews Volume 3 [Moses Prays for Death] verse 944.Moses then took a scroll, wrote upon it the Ineffable Name, and the book of the song, and betook himself to Joshua’s tent to deliver it to him.
    47. When he arrived at Joshua’s tent, Joshua was seated, and Moses remained standing before him in a bowed attitude without being noticed by Joshua. For God brought this to pass in order that Moses, on account of this disrespectful treatment, might himself wish for death.
    48. For when Moses had prayed to God to let him live, were it only as a private citizen, God granted his prayer, saying to him, “If thou hast no objection to subordinating thyself to Joshua, then mayest thou live,” and in accordance with this agreement, Moses had betaken himself to hear Joshua’s discourse.
    49. The people who had gathered as usual before Moses’ tent to hear from him the word of God, failed to find him there, and hearing that he had gone to Joshua, went there likewise, where they found Moses standing and Joshua seated.
    50. What art thou thinking of,” they called out to Joshua, “that thou art seated, while thy teacher Moses stands before thee in a bowed attitude and with folded hands?
    51. In their anger and indignation against Joshua, they would instantly have slain him, had not a cloud descended and interposed itself between the people and Joshua.
    52. When Joshua noticed that Moses stood before him, he instantly arose, and cried in tears: “O my father and teacher Moses, that like a father didst rear me from my youth, and that didst instruct me in wisdom, why dost thou do such a thing as will bring upon me Divine punishment?”
    53. The people now besought Moses as usual to instruct them in the Torah, but he replied, “I have no permission to do so.” They did not, however, cease importuning him, until a voice sounded from heaven and said, “Learn from Joshua.”
    54. The people now consentedto acknowledge Joshua as their teacher, and seated themselves before him to hear his discourse. Joshua now began his discourse with Moses sitting at his right, and Aaron’s sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, at this left.
    55. But hardly had Joshua begun his lecture with the words, “Praised be God that taketh delight in the pious and their teachings,” when the treasures of wisdom vanished from Moses and passed over into Joshua’s possession, so that Moses was not even able to follow his disciple Joshua’s discourse.
    56. When Joshua had finished his lecture, Israel requested Moses to review with them what Joshua had taught, but he said, “I know not how to reply to your request!” He began to expound Joshua’s lecture to them, but could not, for he had not understood it. He now said to God: “Lord of the world! Until now I wished for life, but now I long to die. Rather a hundred deaths, than one jealousy.” [944]
    57. Those that thought that Joshua was impersonating became ashamed of themselves.What did they do? They bound their hearts together and took an oath saying, “As we were with Moses, so shall we be with you. If any man should rebel against your Word, he shall be stoned to death instantly there.”
    58. God, knowing the awful implication, immediately withdrew Moses, placed him in the Cave of Shelters, in his own tomb.You can never see us two standing here. There can never be two Messiahs here.
    59. So, all of you should be very very careful. The devil is changing his styles. The devil is anointing your Ministers falsely now. He has weakened them spiritually because of what they are thinking in their hearts.
    60. Let Me tell you. The devil can never operate against you until he has weakened your spiritual strength. The moment the devil succeeds in weakening you spiritually, you become a victim.
    61. INTERLUDE [Someone knocked at the Gate]: Who might be this person knocking? If the person is someone that is not in this Faith, tell him that he will not see My face until the end of this month.How I wish that the person is an intelligent fellow instead of the fool that does not speak what can be comprehended, who is always mumbling like a pig. “One who is not in this Faith”. That is My emphasis.Who is that person? This is for you to see. This is for you to see. Is it not the time in which we find ourselves? What is he looking for? Contacts. He must be somebody that knows Me.A member of Jehovah’s witness. He is from Mbaise. I have discussed with him at length. He brought out his magazine and told Me that he willlike us to have a meeting. On the day we had the meeting, he confessed to Me that he believes My Message, but Jehovah’s witness will not permit him to subscribe. I then asked him a question. Is it because Jehovah’s witness will not permit you, but you believe My Message? The woman you came with even believed My Message, but you are not subscribing to the truth because Jehovah’s witness said no to the Message.
    62. Can you now see that ProtusUzorma will condemn you? He then said that he knows that it will be difficult for Assemblies of God to believe this revelation, but he will not deny the revelation because of the position of Assemblies of God. He stuck to his gun. Assemblies of God pushed him out. And he was very happy.
    63. Excommunicate me because of the truth and I will live a happier life than living in bondage. This is because when you hear and know the truth youcannot declare publicly due to fear, you are in bondage. Is it a lie?
    64. Your conscience is equally in bondage because the truth that befell you is greater than your carnality. It will then make you to sit on truth that is evidently set before your eyes.
    65. Sometimes, you keep quiet, especially when it comes to quarrelling and raising voices, you will keep quiet and suppress your feelings. It will become worse.
    66. I know what is happening among all of you. It is not only among those that are here. Men are dying in silence. Women are dying in silence. Children are dying in silence becausethe force that is acting on them is greater than them.
    67. To us who are married, there is one spirit the devil has introduced, “I do not want my family to scatter.” IF TRUTH WILL SCATTER MY FAMILY, KNOW THAT MY FAMILY BELONGS TO THE DEVIL.
    68. For the LORD Jesus said, “I have not come to bring about peace in the homes. I have come to bring enmity. I have come to bring division.”
    69. A man will be at variance with the wife. So it is with the mother in-law, daughter in-law, father, sons, children and so on.
    70. Who will be at variance? The unbelievers. The unbeliever is an abomination to the believer. For there to be peace, the two must agree, for the two can never walk in harmony except they agree. What is the point of your agreement?
    71. You may agree with your wife in unbelief because you do not want your family to scatter, “Let me do it so that peace will reign. Let me do it and see if there will be peace in this house.”You are a compromiser. You are a sinner.
    72. But what did God say about the wife who is a naked unbeliever? If you are tired of bearing with her unbelief, put her away. You arenot under obligation. She is not under obligation. She can remarry. You can remarry. Is it not Scripture?No sin is committed.Believers must marry people that believe what they believe so that when you say amen, your wife will say amen.
    73. REFERENCE: 1 Corinthians 7:15, KJV. But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
    74. There is nothing that will make you to sit down and be counting offence.What I believe is the same thing My wife believes. We are standing on one platform. She can lick My sputum and I can lick hers.
    75. Nobody will accuse the other of bad breath. If I have bad breath, she also has bad breath. Whatever is the cause of My bad breath is the same cause of her own bad breathe. That is Faith.
    76. Can the two walk together except they agree? The Bible said no.There is nothing that should yoke a believer with an unbeliever.
    77. REFERENCE: 2 Corinthians 6:14-16. 14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
    78. 15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
    79. But we have too many external considerations we give, and which do not have any spiritual value. Brethren, think about what I have said when you get home today.Most of the considerations and allowances we are making for each other do not, in any way, help our spiritual growth. They do not, in any way.
    80. But when you realize that you have your own thumbprint, and that you are going to meet God face to face as an individual, you will not hold anybody called your child, talk less of mother or wife. These people are too far away from where you are.
    81. Where I am standing, every human being is far away from Me. I am standing alone with God. So you ought to stand alone with God.Your children must learn to stand alone.

    The Deity is no longer in Heaven but in the midst of the Bride…..And anybody outside the Kingdom of God (Bridal Faith) cannot see the hidden things of God. Even things that are not meant for human beings to know will be made known to you. we are part of the Elohim. Without us, the Elohim is incomplete. Believe it if you can…

    THE SON OF MAN

    JESUS IN RELATION TO THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD (CONTROVERSIAL TRUTH) VOL. 1; Preached on Sunday 14th September 2003 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 3

    2

    The soul that sinneth, IT SHALL DIE

    1. A family that visited Me here yesterday, I spoke to them – All of them. And their eyes of understanding opened. The noise-making stoppedabruptly, for they were not giving their children firmtraining.
    2. What they thought training to be is allowing them unnecessary liberty without limits. Then they will become self-destroyers. And look at where that liberty is leading many.
    3. We have to be very fair and firm. F-A-I-R and F-I-R-M. Be fair and firm. You can be polite and firm. I say, you can be polite and firm. Be polite and remain firm. Do not be polite and begin to dangle or begin to manifest instability. It is unfair. Very very unfair.
    4. If you know the truth, and you refuse to abide in that truth and stand for that truth, you have put your soul in bondage. You will become more restive than you will be when you speak the truth. What I am telling you is pure truth.
    5. If you know the truth, but refuse to speak the truth to avoid being hated andso that peace will reign, I am telling you that the level of restiveness that will be in you will be more than what it would have been, if you had spoken the truth.
    6. It is better that you speak [out] the truth and have your rest than suppressing your feelings to support the evil one and giving support to something you know that does not contain the truth.This is where the highest calamity that befalls everybody.
    7. The devil is weakening many of you spiritually, beginning with your Ministers in truncating their vision and setting their minds away from the Reality. I can see many of them pursuing shadows right now.
    8. Nobody is borrowing a cue from Me. I do not know what has befallen me that removed me from the presence of God.
    9. Watch Me from the day I initiated the work of this glorious house which is God’s own eternal home on earth, which I know many do not believe because they have their eyes fixed on their own heaven which is imaginary, and which they created in the sky that has no place in God’s prophecies and in God’s plans. They do not know the meaning of heaven.
    10. When He who is a part of that Heaven is talking about Heaven, something in them is still querying Him. What is querying them? What is agitating your minds.
    11. That thing does not exist. It is falsehood inherited from your religion and not from the truth from Christ. It is not from the truth from Christ.
    12. If you know where Heaven is, go alone. You do not need to think of who will guide you because you know the way and you have truth. Go now! Why do you need Me? You have the qualifications. You can go.
    13. If I leave you where you are now, I bet you, you are all perishing. Nobody steps into Paradise if that person does not hold the helm of My Garment. You must have access to the helm of My Garment. Only then will you know where Paradise is.
    14. It is believed that when somebody vanishes, he has gone to Heaven, but is it true? I want to even tell you that the devil has produced magic wands which people can use and then disappear.When they disappear, do they not reappear?
    15. When the person is in a car and accident occurs, the person will vanish. Before your eyes, you will still see the person where he reappeared. The personwill land again.Some fall into the river, while some will reappear and will be crushed by an oncoming vehicle.
    16. This is because you have vanished, but you do not know where you will reappear. Do you think the person vanishes and lands in his house? No!
    17. Where he vanished is very close to where he will reappear. The site of the incident where that person disappeared or vanished is not too far away from where he will reappear. This is because it is man-made.This is an impersonation of the original.
    18. Evenwhen Philip vanished after baptizing the Ethiopian eunuch, did he go to Heaven? Where did he reappear? Did you not see him? He reappeared in his family in the midst of the brethren.
    19. When Peter vanished, where did he appear? In the house of Rhoda amidst brethren. Why did he not continue vanishing into Heaven?
    20. How we ought to have a re-think.What is agitating your mind is unbelief. Unbelief!
    21. He that created this world said that He never created it in vain. He created it to be inhabited by men. Human beings will inhabit this world with God as their leader. He will not lead them without being their Governor. He will be Governor over there. Do you not know that the kingdom of this world is automatically the Kingdom of God and His dear children, but presently now, the devilis in control. Ishe [the devil] the owner?
    22. If I vanish now and you do not see Me again, your belief is that I have gone to Heaven. But whileyou think I am in Heaven, somebody may see Me at Umudioka. No other person but Me.That is where I travelled to. I may sojourn there for some time, after which they will be looking for Me. I will be declared missing.
    23. Once somebody is missing, he has no grave. It is believed that he has gone to Heaven. Where is the Heaven? Imaginary! Maybe in the sky. If the sky is the heaven, all the birds of the air will be living there. Did you get the Message?
    24. Have you seen any bird that is hanging in the air, living there in the air? It must perch somewhere. No matter the height it is flying, it must perch somewhere.
    25. If there is Heaven in the sky, astronauts would have entered that Heaven because they have gone beyond human imagination and photographed everything in a vacuum.
    26. How can you dwell where there is no light? How can you dwell where there is no air? Who makes a journey using aeroplane without being nourished in the aeroplane with air bag – oxygen bag.
    27. Without oxygen, everybody will suffocate in the aeroplane. It is not air-conditioner, but oxygen bags everywhere. Find out from people that travel in the air. I have done much of that.
    28. Once you get to a certain height, you are cut off. No oxygen again. That is why every aeroplane is oxygen-powered. Then, you enjoy your flight.
    29. Look at one funny thing about it. Do you know that the window will remain open while it is zooming on the ground. When it is about to take off, all the windows will be locked at the same time. The pilot presses a button and all of them will close.
    30. There is no single hole where air can enter aeroplane. No pore space even as small as a pinhole is found. Once air gains access into the aeroplane, it must drop to the ground, one way because with the velocity of the aeroplane, the opening will shatter it in the air.
    31. So, every aeroplane is air-tight. You survive there because it is oxygen-powered and air-conditioned. You will be discussing and even eating comfortably, not knowing that you are in hell fire. It is when you disembark or if you open one of the windows, you will then know that you were in hell fire.
    32. When it is switched off or anything goes wrong with the engine and the oxygen sac closes, all the passengers on board must suffocate.
    33. So, believe what I am telling you.They are all practical. Is there anything spiritual in what I am saying? Why is it so? They are all human mechanical devices to aid mankind in travelling. Not even one is formulated by the Almighty God.Is there any of those devices that was manufactured by the Almighty God? They are mechanical devices.
    34. Do I liken them to God’s own means of travelling? When God wants to travel, does He require any of those devices? Be very careful all of you. Be very careful all of you hearing My Voice, especially your Ministers.
    35. I taught you the contents of the Bible. And in the Great Sermon, I told you clearly that every relevant portion that is relevant for your eternal life, I carried all over for a guide – for a guide, lest you begin to think that I never read this Book, but in all, it does not contain eternal life, which is the main purpose why we are serving God.
    36. Those who think we are serving God because of bread and butter or material help, when it ceased, what happened? They left. Those that needed eternal life, did they go away?
    37. REFERENCES: John 6:66-69. KJV. 66From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
    38. They were ready to pass through all the troubles, and they really saw hell. Who were witnesses of His arrest, His torture and His crucifixion. Who were witnesses? Were they not those that were desiring eternal life?
    39. Those who came for food and whatever, did they endure anything?Did they witness anything bloody?You see why there is a demarcation between a believer and an ordinary worshipper.
    40. A believer is not a worshipper. A worshipper is not a believer. A believer is not a worshipper. A worshipper is not a believer.
    41. All that went to the idol – to the shrine, are they believers of that shrine?
    42. A believer is one that receives instructions and obeys instructions because of the Source of the instructions.
    43. But the rest will go to the shrine, eat, drink and go away, and make a hell of noise.
    44. Is it not the reason why God said that many will depart from Him that day, for they worshipped in vain? In vain do they worship Me, keeping and observing man-made rules as if they are obeying Me.Is it not written in your Bible?
    45. Reference:Matthew 15:7-9, KJV.Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
    46. In vain do they worship Me, teaching people to observe, and they themselves observing rules and regulations made by human beings to regulate their activities, and they think they are worshipping God. They do not know that God is worshipped in spirit and in truth.
    47. There are people you call pagans who worship God more than you. They do that which is pleasing to God every day. They are mindful of their relationship with God more than those that go to church.
    48. People do not go to church to worship God again. They go to church and find out many many ways they will use to circumvent the will of God. Do you understand what we are saying?
    49. That is the slave that is running after the master not to learn but to pry into the secrets of his master so as to know the way of duping his master, for he already knows the master’s limitations. He will now device a means to follow him.
    50. About such people, saint Paul warned His followers to be very careful about them. They have not come to worship God, but to spy into the secrets of our liberty in Christ with the intent to lead us back to our old association. What I am telling you is the truth.
    51. You can never leave the Faith without going back to where your heart is. In the flesh, you are with the Word of God, but in the spirit, you are where you were. You are still where you were. You only changed the dress.Changing of one’s dress, does it mean a change of character?
    52. That you learnt Yoruba language and speaks fluently, are you a Yoruba? No!This is for you to understand what God is saying.
    53. The little time I have to spend in your midst is for you to ask Me any question that may be agitating your mind. That is why I am in your midst.
    54. Read that message that is there while you go on in pursuit of that which you are pursuing. The reason why I am here today among human beings with the little time I have is this. If you know that question that is perplexing and agitating your mind, your heart and your life, ask Me. Do not say, “I will ask Pastor.” Your Pastor has not answered his own question.
    55. I am here. I am still here on earth. Every human being living today has access to Me. I am not a hidden figure. There is no part of the world where the son of man is not known. There is no country where I am not known.
    56. Anybody that has anything agitating his or her mind concerning this issue of eternal life, you have no other place to clear it except with the son of man.
    57. Some will get direct answer like I gave it to Chibuzo yesterday. Though he did not ask. I gave him the direct answer, for I told him plainly, “Chibuzo Agbom does not belong to the son of man.The son of man does not belong to him.”
    58. Up till today, he belongs to Agbom and everything Agbom. And if I cannot recognize him, how dare you think that I can recognize his wife? Often times, I do not even know whether his wife exists at all, unless the Pastor can say.
    59. I cannot remember the last time I saw her even in the Fellowship of the children of God. I cannot remember. She has never featured in anything prominent among us.
    60. [Pastor Chizoba and Deacon Chibuko responded immediately, “That is truth sir!”]Pardon! You are saying it is true. So My observation is right? There are too many others like that.
    61. I prefer Sister Rose Ekwe there in Ebonyi State to her. Why? She calls from time to time. If she does not call Me, she will call the Elders.
    62. [Pastor Chizoba elaborated, “She is even volunteering to come.”]
    63. Even last week, you were there. I halted her. I asked her, “Why are you coming?” And she said, “Just to see You, hear You and then see Brethren.” That’s all. I said, “No! You have been hearing My Voice. It is in the tape. My photographs are everywhere.”
    64. So it is with any other person. You must have good reason for Me to permit you to travel long distance to this place. Why are you travelling long distance to meet with God Who is there with you?
    65. God is not far from the righteous, but He is very far away from the wicked. Who is the wicked? The unbeliever – the willful disobedient person in the midst of God’s people. Willful disobedient persons.
    66. There are some disobedience that are willful. Commissioned disobedience, and not disobedience by omission. There are some willful omissions.
    67. Willful commission means that which you openly, brazenly and knowingly commit and which is very clear to you.
    68. What are you coming to tell Me about evil even when you know that you are doing it against yourself? You are doing it against yourself.
    69. That I am shouting is not that you are acting against Me. I am shouting because I am seeing you perishing. My shouting means bringing you back from where you are heading to – from destruction to the living way. That is the essence of shouting.
    70. Does an elder sit back comfortably and watch a little child rush unadvisedlyunto the highway without shouting, lest an oncoming vehicle crushes the child to death?
    71. Brethren, that is the same way I am shouting. A child that rushes into the highway and is crushed by an oncoming vehicle, is it the elder that is standing by the one who was crushed?
    72. The elder does not want the child to die. So, he shouts in alarm and speedily rushes to hold the child and restrain him from being crushed by a vehicle. Yet, the person being saved this way is still rejoicing that he is crossing the main road.That is what all of you are doing.
    73. You think that it is a light thing to trespass. Well, go and have a re-think. You are not trespassing against Me. You are trespassing against yourself and against your fellow human beings.
    74. So, if you are answerable, you are answerable before Me on why you could do such things after knowing the truth.That is what your trespass is all about. If you were not taught, it would have been a different thing. But still in your ignorance, you cannot be justified.
    75. Is “I am ignorant”an excuse? The Bible said, “Evenif a soul sinneth, even when it listeth it not, yet is that soul guilty before God” for ignorance is no excuse.
    76. Go through that Message. Let us see we will have a little consolation.

    I told you the Source of the Message. The Source was clearly introduced using sufficient time to come out fully from the cocoon. If you are shaking your head, you are shaking your head into the Kingdom of hell, because He can never handle it with respect of persons. Neither is He going to lower the standard.

    MY GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF LIVING REMAINS MY MESSAGE (1)

    1. I want you to pay strict attention to this small piece of paper. It is a piece of paper and not a lengthy Message, but if you handle it spiritually, you may stay with that Message even till the next one week without exhausting it.
    2. See whether it is going to touch you. See whether this Message is coming directly to you and arresting you because of who you are. Otherwise, at the end of the day, you are still empty.
    3. Am I unknown? Am I unknown? The truth is Yes! As unknown, yet I am known everywhere. Am I in the hiding? The answer is Yes! I am in the hiding. Yet, I have revealed Myself to the whole world.
    4. Why am I in the hiding? Why have I chosen to be in the hiding? Is it because I do not know the truth? why have I avoided all rich men, prominent men, the clergy? I mean the clergy. Why have I avoided all of them and appeared in the midst of the ignorant – the babes?
    5. If you cannot answer it, you are not in the Faith of Christ. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. The answer is, “THIS IS MY NATURE. I have chosen to be like this.”
    6. There is no situation I found Myself that ever changed Me one bit. I have never attempted impersonating anything. After all, I knew not all these things when I came. I manifested them. Before knowing about all these things, I had already manifested all. True or false?
    7. Did I manifest all these things to you because I went to school to learn it? Who taught Me then? Who is that particular deity you will ascribe to be responsible for all these things, using Me as a representative?
    8. Are you shocked why He, first of all, showed you who He is? Before showing the remaining attributes, He invited you to come and see He that has been having dealing with you all these years to banish unbelief.
    9. What surrounded Him!Was is not the identification of Christ in all the Ages?Since the world began, has it not beenthe sign? Who has ever impersonated it till now? Was it not after this that you began to see others. Finally, he showed you the Original Body.
    10. Who knows about these things outside this Gate? They know about Jesus. They know about the cross. They can talk about the blood of Jesusthey do not see, but is still flowing.Where is it flowing?
    11. They talk about the crucified Jesus, but how does He look like? Where is He? He! In Heaven. On the right-hand side of God, interceding for us.
    12. But Christ as son of man, He acts. He also intercedes. We see Him. We look at Him. We know that is where the action is. We watch His way of doing things so as to pattern after Him. Brethren, this is where we are.
    13. You do not need to come and lie down in My house before you begin to pattern after Me.All you need to do is to believe all I have taught you all these years, put them into practice and you will discover that you are reproducing the son of man’s character unknowingly.
    14. MY GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF LIVING REMAINS MY MESSAGE. so, I live out– I act out My Message, for I do not even reason before acting. It is My nature.
    15. This is why that Message said that He has revealed the truth and everything, even His invisible qualities. Have you not seen the invisible qualities?
    16. You are the most privileged people that lived here on earth who used their physical eyes to see things no human being could see and live. He used the pinhole camera to film it so that you can see and live.
    17. The blind man said that there is nothing like what one had seen with his own eyes. Then what is the testimony of the one who can see. He has said that he does not know what he saw.
    18. That challenging statement that what kills you is that after hearing, within a short while, you forget all, goes to show that you are heading to destruction, for the Bible warned you never to be a forgetful hearer, deceiving yourself.
    19. The power of God is never made manifest in hearing only, but in acting.
    20. What we are saying is that the Decider has come, and that is why you have the boldness to stand in the midst of “Be you who”, andthen declare that you are with the Almighty God.
    21. In THE TESTAMENT OF JOB, when the thing became too much, other kings from nearby countries came to him and they tarried with him for some time. They were making some investigations and enquiries to know whether this could really be the Job they knew.
    22. They asked too many questions, and Job answered rightly. Yet, they were not satisfied, until one of them started speaking unguidedly, speaking too many things because the devil had already possessed him.
    23. It took this Pillar of Cloud to come down. It was when the Pillar of Cloud came down and then showed them who was right.
    24. All of them bowed down, and the LORD told them what they will go and buy to appease God, present all to Job Who they were blaspheming. And to enable him pray for their forgiveness, for only on that account could they be forgiven. Otherwise, they were perishing.
    25. Can you imagine the man you called a sinner is now the possessor of your life?
    26. God said that in every generation where there is no Saviour, the people in that generation must perish. Then when you watch this Saviour, He has been the same Man.
    27. When you read the Scriptures, the LORD Jesus Christ said that His food has been to do the Father’s will and to finish it.
    28. That is why, after that Ministry, Abdrushin made us to understand that because He did not finish it, He decided to come back again as the son of man as the continuation and consummation of the Ministry.
    29. And then, how do we know that He is the same Man? It is through these supernatural vindications.
    30. Who among you caused these people to accept money for the work they have done and which they say is free? He will force them, “Collect this money from Me.” Even when they resist, He will force it on them.
    31. Wait a little. You have your phones. Let somebody use the phone. We can talk if we wish to talk. Find out what AI [Artificial Intelligence] holds, thinks, suggestsor what it knows 2025 for.
    32. If you see it, you save it.Check the different versions of AI. If you see, you read and read to our hearing. Did you hear Me? Do it quickly.
    33. THE YEAR 2025 by Artificial Intelligence [AI]: [A] Spiritual significance [1] BALANCE AND HARMONY – The square year emphasizes on balance and harmony and symbolize a means for spiritual equilibrium.
    34. Did I mention equilibrium while talking to you? [Pastor Chizoba answers, “Yes sir!”]
    35. This could involve finding balance material and spiritualor harmonizing one’s inner world. …
    36. Is there any other argument? Did I not tell you? 360. It is not a spherical concept, but a square.
    37. [2] COMPLETIONAND RENEWAL –… What? COMPLETION AND RENEWAL –… What?COMPLETION AND RENEWAL – … The number 2025 can be seen as a symbol of completion [2025 a new beginning i.e 2025]
    38. This might represent a spiritual opportunity to release old patterns, habits or energies… To do what? to release old patterns, habits or energies and embark on a fresh start.
    39. That is AI [Artificial Intelligence], but we are holding Divine Intelligence without them letting out that artificial. Artificial means after their own thinking, imaginations and beliefs, but there is a Divine Intelligence.
    40. And that Divine Intelligence is He that governs the Cosmos – He that governs the Cosmos. The Supreme Intelligence that controls the affairs of men, that controls the whole universe. That is theOne you are having dealings with.But look at the interpretation of AI first.
    41. [3] GLOBAL SPIRITUAL AWAKENING –… Is it too far from the truth? Global Spiritual Awakening. Awake thou that sleepeth for the night is far spent, for your salvation is nearest to you now than when you first believed in THE SON OF MAN, the revealed Christ of your day.
    42. If events are made clear by prophecies, can you not use events around the whole world, around you, and around your community as a human being to predict the hour you are in.
    43. Few days ago, I gave you a Message, “You could predict accurately all the signs in the weather and they will come to pass. Why is it that you cannot predict accurately the hour you are in and what it calls for?
    44. If here, without consultation with flesh and blood, we are having “Resurrection revival”, and without consultation with flesh and blood, Israel launched “Resurrection War”–Resurrection Revival here and Resurrection War there, can you not go home and pray, knowing that it is all over?”
    45. Both the Jews and the Gentiles that form the real Flock of God, the complete Flock, where is the great Shepherd? He has only but one thing left – RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD, which means putting an end to death. Putting an end to he that is responsible for causing death.
    46. Do you know that death never existed in the beginning?Death came as a result of transgression. Death became a punishment for transgression.
    47. [3] GLOBAL SPIRITUAL AWAKENING – Some believe that 2025 will mark a significant milestone in humanity’s spiritual evolution which will involve a global awakening to higher state of consciousness, increases emphasis and a deeper connection to the Divine…
    48. Is it far from the truth?
    49. …SPIRITUAL awakeningAND GROWTH.
    50. (1) higher consciousness: 2025 is believed to mark a significant milestone in humanity’s spiritual evolution. This could involve a global awakening to higher state of consciousness, increased emphasis and a deeper connection to the Divine.
    51. (2) PERSONAL GROWTH: The energies of 2025 might catalyze personal growth, self-awareness and spiritual exploration. Individuals may feel compelled to examine their values, belief and life’s path.
    52. spiritual practices: as people seek greater meaning and connection, spiritual practice like meditation, yoga and energy healingmay become more popular. Sure!!!

    MY GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF LIVING REMAINS MY MESSAGE (2)

    1. THE YEAR 2025 by Artificial Intelligence [AI]: [B]The spiritual significance of 2025 can be explored through numerology, astrology and the general symbolism of the era. Here is an interpretation.
    2. NUMEROLOGICAL MEANING: In numerology, the spiritual meaning of 2025 can be broken down as follows:
    3. [1] Digit breakdown:“2” represents harmony, balance, cooperation and partnership. It encourages unity and connection.
    4. “0” symbolizes potentials, divine energy and the beginning spiritual journeys. It often amplifies the energies of other numbers.
    5. “5” represents freedom, change, adaptability and adventure. It encourages personal growth and exploration.
    6. [2] SUM OF DIGITS: Adding 2 + 0 + 2 + 5 = 9. The number nine is associated with spiritual completion, humanitarianism, wisdom and universal love. It signifies the end of a cycle and the preparation for a new one.
    7. Spiritual Message: 2025 could be seenas a year of transformation, urging people to find balance,“2” Explore new opportunities, “5” and embrace their higher purpose.
    8. “9” Ideological influence: Astrologically significant planetary movement and alignment in 2025 could shape spiritual scenes. Saturn and Neptune will be in part of Aries within the year, symbolizing a cushion of disciplineand spirituality potentially encouraging bold actions towards dreams and ideals.
    9. Eclipses in the Aries-Libra axis might bring changes in relationships and personal identities, promoting spiritual growth.
    10. Scenes of Spiritual Growth: (1) Ending and New beginning: With the presence of “9”, 2025might represent a year where people collectively reflect onwhat no longer serves them and move towards higher spiritual alignment.
    11. (2) Global Unity and Cooperation: the double “2” in 2025 emphasizes collaborations, free and collective spiritual growth.
    12. (3) Adaptation and Growth: The energies of “5” suggests that personal and global changes will encourage resilience and adaptability.
    13. In essence, 2025 may signify a period of transformation in our discoveries and global unity, urging individuals to embrace their higher purpose and worktogether for a better future.
    14. [C]Prophecies regarding 2025 suggests a clamorous year with predictions of potential disasters such as asteroids impacts and the possibility of World War III. World War III, which is Armageddon.
    15. Nostradamus and other prophetic figures have indicated significant global unrest including wars and economic challengesalongside spiritual and societal transformations.
    16. [1] ASTEROIDS IMPACT: Some interpretations of Nostradamus writings suggest that 2025 could witness catastrophic events including asteroid strikes that may lead to widespread destructions.
    17. [2] GLOBAL CONFLICTS: there are predictions of escalating tensions that could result to a major conflict potentially referred to as World War III affecting multiple nations and regions.
    18. Is it in the making? Is it in the making?For which cause I recoiled from your family altars and everything to make sure I organize it in such a way that the Elect will not be disturbed so much, but you must be disturbed to a certain level.
    19. I say, you must be disturbed to a certain level.By disturbance, I mean that you must be discomforted to a certain level. And for that reason, a provision had already been made for you.
    20. To avoid being disturbed beyond measure, The LORD God will cut the period short in righteousness. It may not be in 2025. 2025 may be the beginning of the end of this world.
    21. Remember when I told you that move has already been initiated to mark the end of the world. I told you to write down that date that marks the beginning of the end of the world.
    22. reference: Loose the colt Volume 2, preached by the son of man on Sunday 8th June 2014 at the Household of God Onitsha, Pg. 25 vs 15-19. 15Pope Francis is seeking to rekindle dream of peace by bringing the Israeli and the Palestinian President together thisweekend for a unique common prayer for peace in the Vatican gardens.
    23. 16It will be the first time such a meeting had ever taken place at the Vatican and marks the first time in over a year that the Israeli President Shimon Peres and Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas have met…
    24. 17Remember I told you that the visit Pope Francis paid to the Middle-East marks the beginning of the end of the world. From that day till now, you are eye witnesses of developments globally, especially fixing your eyes on Israel.
    25. 18When something that has never happened since the history of the world starts happening, you do not need a Prophet to tell you that the prophecies are fulfilling every day. 19The meeting today is a fulfilment of over one thousand prophecies, both written and unwritten.
    26. 31 vs. 37-38. 37Let me say it. This is the re-awakening of Communism, where the Lord promised He will lump the world and then destroy them in one second. He MUST bring the whole world to one side.
    27. 38God alone and His people will be on another side. The demarcating line is becoming clearer every day. I told you that the Pope’s movement to the Middle East marks exactly the beginning of the end of the world.
    28. From that day, have you not been seeing escalations of hardship, of wars, natural disasters and [I mean] every kind of evil devastating the whole earth. Are they not in the increase?
    29. Remember I told you that in no distant time, nobody will hear about Boko Haram again. You will not hear about ISIS. You will not hear about IPOB. Nobody will even do kidnapping because the money is useless.
    30. I told you that all these things will stop. And what will replace it will put every Tom, Dick and Harry on the run. If you kidnap, where will you keep the captive?
    31. You need money, but where will the money come from?Where will the person get the money? If he gives you the money. Where will you keep it? In short, you are in danger.
    32. Everybody must be on the run, for what is coming upon mankind is beyond your comprehension. You cannot imagine it. Science does not have the solution to it.
    33. In spite of their noise about global meltdown, climatic change, have they achieved anything? Is the global warming not ravaging still? Is climatic change not ravaging still?
    34. Let Me tell you. That God said that water [flood] must be in the desert, have we not seen flooding in the desert? Have we not seen trees growing in the desert?
    35. But look at the irony. The land where trees were growing have become deserts, while deserts have become arable land. Have you not seen it?
    36. From that day River Euphrates dried up, and that great dragon was pulled out, photographed and showcased to the whole world, the whole nations of the world clapped hands that the Elohim tabernacled in Willam Branham. Even if there is no other prophecy, that one is enough.
    37. What are you suffering from? Legions upon legions of demons that were let loose throughout the whole world to operate against you in diverse forms.
    38. That is why you cannot predict what your life is all about, unless you are buried in Christ. If you are not buried in Christ, already you are a victim.
    39. Sit down where you are now, I bet you, while the Message is going on, over one thousand ideas will be flooding into your mind, countering the Message. The moment we leave here, you will not remember even a quote of what you heard.
    40. So you are a believer while the Message is going on. Once it stops, you are an unbeliever. You begin to wonder what is happening to you. There is something asking for you. Why is it greeting you. It is because you are yet to be buried with Christ through baptism. You have not been immersed in Christ.
    41. Let Me use one instant example – Pastor Thomas and his family. I made them saviours to the people they were going to see, to their in-laws and to many others who might be showing interest.
    42. When I made them saviours, I never made it compulsory for anybody. I said, “If any volunteers to believe in you and then believing that you will protect that person from that thing there allow him to take one and use it as I instructed.”
    43. By the time he finished addressing the family, he never knew that his in-laws who were afraid of what was happening were confused because they did not know where to go to. They saw themselves as people that were perishing.
    44. Immediately, they dived and said, “Ah ah! What are you talking? Give Me my own first!”. The head of the family was the number one that dived.
    45. He addressed them on how to use that thing. He, his wife and children, they did as commanded. I watched the testimony yesterday.
    46. Many were wondering, “What type of handkerchief is this which this woman is not dropping? She does not use it to clean herface. Wherever she is going, she is holding it. She salutes people without allowing them to touch it.” Even if they touch that one, there was one within.
    47. If the most senior who knows what was happening was notused by God to know that something was wrong, he became the target. And immediately the thing hit the hand, the hand collapsed. Then he shook the thing up.
    48. And then he will prove that what he was holding has power enough. Everybody started dancing. But the people they were afraid of now recoiled and became afraid of Pastor Thomas and all that were with him and on his side.
    49. They became beggars to the point that it was Sister Thomas that was feeding all of them– Everybody including the woman, the sons and the one that came from abroad with his money. All ofthem folded their arms.
    50. It is just like what happened at Ama-achara, Enugu-Ezike. You were all there when we came prowling everywhere, opened the rice and opened everything we were eating. We opened the wine and even went to the man direct and shook his hands. He removed the hand and I gripped him straightaway.
    51. All of them were watching. They thought I will fall down. The man acted and acted and acted and said, “You are strong. You are strong. You are strong.”
    52. Everybody became afraid. You hired somebody to come and push me down and to disgrace Me, and the man ended up saying, “You are strong.” He must have finished everything because I made a proclamation. All the people that were afraid [natives], they came eating and drinking from us.
    53. The video man said that this is the first that has happened in their community. The Divisional Police Officer said, “The Almighty has come. No man of God has ever come to Enugu-Ezike and went away free without being carried away. They must humiliate that person by pushing him down.”
    54. They must do something to scatter them. Oftentimes, they will use bees. A swarm of bees will come stinging everybody.
    55. And they brought the highest from the neighbouring community. They brought that one who happened to be the highest. The highest proved he was the highest.
    56. They gave him a seat away from everybody. Immediately he arrived, Ifeoma the goddess, the sister to late Bishop Ifeanyi started jubilating. The youth gathered to see what will happen.
    57. They had already started acting. All we fielded in the pulpit to lead in praises, they paralyzed all. They could not sing. They were rather singing about the morning, even when it was almost 2pm. They did not know what to say again.
    58. I became everything, and then pounced on their gods. I caged the whole gods of that land and made it clear to them that the two personalities they were boasting of get their strength from Me. I mentioned the two names. Everybody chilled.
    59. At the end of the day, they started scrambling for our food. This is because when you get to a place where you know they are tough, get tougher. I saw it before the time, and I prepared Myself to go with them. Let the heavens fall. And the heavens did not fall.
    60. The young man is alive till now. The hand is not paralyzed. They have returned everything to Me, which I drankbefore Pastor Thomas and gave him the remnant.
    61. I then gave him a command,“Return the handkerchiefs. Go and use them. Wash them and use them as daily handkerchiefs. I have taken everything out of it. So you cannot use it as a miracle handkerchief again.”
    62. As a man, in recognition of what took place, he gave Me a gift – a bottle of Bazooka drink and some native kolanuts and said, “Give Him. Tell Him I will come. I am very grateful.”

    Neglect the Voice of the Son of Man, you must land yourself in trouble; And at the end, you must come back to the same Voice. The highest favour God will show us, He said, “Is to remind us of His Voice we have not obeyed.”

    1. You do not know what is happening around you. Many forces are acting on you. And they cannot begin to act until you listen to something that contradicts your faith.
    2. The moment somebody begins to talk to you contrary to yourFaith, and you give ear, after a while, you will be tired. You will be limping between two opinions, whether to follow or not to follow.
    3. Before you know it, you will be saying, “It is true”, and from that time it becomes “It is true” to you, you are already in the region of the lost. You are totallylost. The person has gotten what he or she wants from you.
    4. You are now in agreement. You are concurring. From that day, watch your life. You will never believe your life again. Your spiritual life will be in confusion. Your physical life, in confusion. You will always live in fear and great dread because you know that God is not on your side again.
    5. And what you will do to get reconciled and restored to God, the devil will put unnecessary fear in you.
    6. I gave a testimony before the two Elders this morning of somebody who harboured something that was tormenting her and is very grievous. But at a certain stage, she said, “No! I better open up than to die in silence.”
    7. And from that day, I believe she has heaved a sigh of relief. Even if God will destroy her, she will be happy to be destroyed by God. But will He destroy her? Will He destroy the son? Rather, He will save the two. He will save the two, and that is, if they want to be saved. He will save them.
    8. I am sure of that. I am sure of that because he that confessed unimaginable things revealed unimaginable things.
    9. First, recognize the supremacy of the Almighty God.Recognize His mercy and compassion, long suffering and forgiveness. What else do you need?
    10. The Faith that gives somebody eternal life is not a faith that is like the size of this building. Faith that moves mountain is not a colossus faith. It is a faith like the size of a mustard seed. A mustard seed!
    11. If I have not developed faith that is the size of a mustard seed, why am I following Him?The truth is that I have many other reasons why I am following, and not because of that Faith that gives Me eternal life. It is not because of that faith that changes human life when they believe.
    12. Many do not want that one that will change their life for the better, but they want the promises that will better their lots on earth, after which they will perish.
    13. You want to better your lots? Fine! I have the remedy. There is nothing in this life nor in the hereafter that has been proved to have the remedy. Is He not the Provider? He provides both for good and for bad.
    14. REFERENCES: [1] The Holy Qur’an, Surah 9:55-56, Hilali-Khan Translation.55So let not their wealth or their children amaze you (O Muhammad); in reality Allah’s Plan is to punish them with these things in the life of this world, and that their souls shall depart (die) while they are disbelievers. 56They swear by Allah that they are truly of you while they are not of you, but they are a people (hypocrites) who are afraid (that you may kill them).
    15. [2] Surah 14:47, Hilali-Khan Translation.47So think not that Allah will fail to keep His Promise to His Messengers. Certainly, Allah is All-Mighty, — All-Able of Retribution.
    16. Continuation of the Artificial Intelligence interpretation of the year 2025.
    17. [3] SPIRITUAL AWAKENING: Amidst the chaos, there are indications of a potential spiritual awakening where individuals may seek deeper meaning and connection to their Faith. … What? We are talking about 2025 o.
    18. [4] ECONOMIC CHALLENGES: Economic instability is anticipatedwith predictions of financial crises that will impact global markets and individual livelihood.
    19. [5] ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN: Natural Disasters – increased frequencies and intensity of natural disasters such as earthquakes and flood are foreseen, possibly linked to climate changes and environmental neglect.
    20. [6] RESOURCE SCARCITY: The year may also bring challenges related to resource scarcity leading to conflicts over water, food and energy supplies.
    21. [7] TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT, INNOVATION AND CHANGE: Despite the challenges, 2025 may also be a year of significant technological advancement with innovations that could transform industries and daily lives.
    22. [8] DIGITAL TRANSFORMTION: The on-going digital transformation may accelerate, impacting how people communicate, work and interact with the world aroundthem. These predictions reflects a mix of potential challenges and opportunities, emphasizing the need for resilience and adaptabilityin the face of uncertainties.
    23. Thank you! That is the much we want to take from AI. AI means Artificial Intelligence – Man-made.
    24. The son of man is not against AI, but He is against anybody who uses AI as an absolute. AI is not meant to interpret the mind of God. Nobody knows the mind of God except He that is in the mind of God.
    25. He that is in the bosom of the Father knows the mind of the Father.The son of man is divinely oriented. He holds Divine Intelligence. I hope you are hearing Me.
    26. There is no way Divine Intelligence will not clash with Artificial Intelligence. A divinely oriented human being must clash with a naturally minded fellow being. True or false?
    27. I am pointing all of you to divinely oriented information – divinely oriented truth. Divine in the sense that it emanates from the Deity, from Yahweh, from ADONAI Himself Who has the final say.
    28. AI only made predictions. AI never said, “Thus saith the LORD.” Are you hearing Me? In everything AI, if you go to another chapter, you will hear another version. Ask him about what the son of man has said about the year 2025, he will show you many things that contradicts all those predictions.
    29. Israel is not working with AI. Israel is at war, warring and working with the son of man, the Cloud Man, the Main Man. I never pointed anybody to anything outside the Cloud.
    30. Follow the Cloud. Do not follow the crowd. The crowd is AI. The Cloud is DI. I say, the crowd is AI. The Cloud is DI. C-L-O-U-D is DI. C-R-O-W-D is AI.
    31. It is AI that opposes truth. That is technology. That is science. That is why you are warned to be careful about the opposition of science so called. Do not relate AI to Divinity. Do not relate AI to Divinity.
    32. If I mention your name now, in connection to the Bride of Christ Ministry Worldwide, AI will speculate automatically that you are a very important figure. If you are a woman, AI will begin to highlight what a godly woman you look like.
    33. On reading it or hearing it, you might be rejoicing thinking that he is talking about you when you have not even known your right from your left. AI generalizes. Even Pastors that have never found their feet, he will praise them, but in another version. He will begin to tell you what they have researched about that person which runs contrary to everything.
    34. There was one research they made the other day. We were all there. He researched and mentioned a name.We all looked at that person and looked at ourselves. We know the truth there. Why? They quoted the page of the sermon book.
    35. When they want to make correct reference, they will give you the Message. They will give the source of the information. And that is the accurate source of the information. Whatever you have read there has no backing.
    36. So, do not ever go by AI. Pay heed, keep your ears open to the Words that will proceed from the lips of Christ revealed in your day. That is the final stage.
    37. I have not spoken concerning the Square Year. I have been mentioning that Square Year. I have been giving you some pointers. I have been telling you to be very careful, for it is a very precarious year. It is a very delicate year.
    38. This year is going to disappoint many. This year 2025 will disappoint many people’s expectations. I do not care who you are.
    39. Remember, whatever statement that goes out of My mouth is a global statement. I do not make a tribal statement unless I am led to speak to that tribe. But for now, I am still global.
    40. When I want to narrow Myself down to Israel, everybody will know. If I want to narrow Myself down to your own family or to you as an individual, I do not generalize it. I will make it plain to you so that you know who you are and what awaits you.
    41. Be very sure of one thing. God can never point accusing finger on somebody in vain. If God is constantly mentioning your name, pointing at you, and you think He hates you, tomorrow you will notice that you hated yourself. You hated yourself.
    42. And that is why He enjoined you to pay heed to the Word of His corrections.
    43. A child that is being shouted upon to come back from playing on the highwayso as to avoid dying prematurely, and that child hardens his or her heart and remains playing on the highway, if that child is crushed by an on-coming vehicle, who killed that child? He or she committed suicide.
    44. Anybody who stumbles into hell from this Faith after seeing, hearing and getting acquainted with Me, Apostle Peter Odoemena, the son of man revealed in your own day with all His divine attributes, and you see yourself in hell, you committed suicide. you committed suicide.
    45. But there is something you ought to know about eternal life which is hidden away from you. True or false?If you think I have hidden something from you, tell Me what that thing is, which you are thinking, and I will tell you that it does not exist or you have a forgetful spirit.
    46. WHO WILL BE WITH GOD IN PARADISE? WHO IS THAT PERSON THAT IS NUMBERED AMONG THE LITTLE Flock?
    47. The LORD Jesus said, “It is the Father’s good pleasure to give them His Kingdom.” Who among you is numbered among that little Flock, not only because you are here before Me?No matter where you are globally you are in front. I say, you are in front. Amen

    Do you now believe?

    1. Who will dwell with God in paradise? Was preached on Sunday 19th July 2020 at the Household of God Akwa Ibom by Bishop Joe Ukpong.
    2. If I did not approve of that little Message – short exhortation, I would never allow it to be printed. I would not have uploaded it throughout the whole world.
    3. Chapter one: TRIUMPHANT ENTRY INTO Paradise. …
    4. Pastor Chizoba: What we are talking about cuts across science. It cuts across religion. It cuts across culture and tradition. It cuts across everything. We are talking about Divinity.
    5. Concerning this Paradise we are talking about, remember that Sigmund Mowinckel embarked on a research about it. At the end of the day, they discovered that there is a King of this Paradise. And the King of Paradise is no other person but the son of man.
    6. And if a place is dedicated for the Queen, where is the King?
    7. With the way we are talking of the end of the world, translation, rapture and all those things, there is no group on earth that does not believe in this, even science.
    8. I came across a script where they were saying that science was predicting that one day, the world must come to an end. How? They said that the sun will live for about five billion years, and after that time, it will become so hot that it will melt the surface of the earth.
    9. This is because the ozone layer must have melted way. Has the ozone layer not been melted away?
    10. And then they are saying that they are hoping that will happen, they must have developed an avenue through which people will be transited from this planet earth to another heavenly body so that they will dwell there because, for now, it is only this planet earth that supports human life.
    11. Do you believe that? Apart from this earth, there is no other planet that supports life. Otherwise, there would not be scarcity of food. You will be growing your plants and everything in that planet. Apart from the earth, there is no other planet that supports life. Take note of it.
    12. So when we are talking about Divine intelligence and Artificial Intelligence, let it be known to all that every day, artificial Intelligence is running contrary to God’s own divine purpose.
    13. Remember that Artificial Intelligence was introduced in this 21st century, and 21st century spans from the year 2000 and is going to end in the year 2100. And then, they are projecting that by the 22nd century, this Artificial Intelligence will now grow above every other intelligence, even human intelligence, which means that it will render human beings redundant and useless.
    14. But God is emphasizing on dependence on Divine Intelligence – the Wisdom of God.
    15. 5That is why they never murmured, they never complained. It is when you are thinking that He came to do things according to your own will that you murmur.
    16. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu: It is just like He [God] has spoken of this year 2025. And then, He is gradually revealing what is likely to unfold. So, if we are now thinking something else contrary to those things He is revealing to us, that is when we are going to be stuck with this disappointment, for He said that this year will disappoint too many people’s expectations when you expect something contrary to what God has said.
    17. 13 [18]We are talking about the TRIUMPHANT ENTRY INTO PARADISE. Jesus had a triumphant entry into Jerusalem. the Son of Man is talking about triumphant entry into Paradise.
    18. Are they the same thing? Are the two the same.
    19. 13 [18]We are talking about the TRIUMPHANT ENTRY INTO PARADISE. Jesus had a triumphant entry into Jerusalem;…
    20. That is the place where He was arrested, judged, crucified and buried. Before their eyes, He resurrected and then migrated to a place they could not come over because there was enmity between them and that place.
    21. What was that place? Where He has another sheep that was not of that original one in Israel. He must bring them. Whatever the promise, they I must bring together with you here. And you will be one Flock under one Shepherd.
    22. For that reason, He went there in search of the lost Sheep of Israel, and He found them. When He found them, He sojourned with them, using them to provoke the original stock to jealousy which He is doing even now.
    23. At His own convenient time, He revealed Himself to them. If He is living somewhere in the sky, after revealing Himself to them, they declared that war “Operation Pillar of Cloud”. He vanished and the weather cleared. The war resumed in earnest till today.
    24. Is He still hanging there? Have you ever received any photograph or report that He is still hanging there? When He vanished, where did He go to? He returned to His home. He returned to His home.
    25. You think they do not know where He is? If they do not know where He is, why did they order a woman who went for pilgrimage asking her, “You being a Nigerian coming to Israel, what do you want to see? Calvary or what? No nononono! You have made a mistake. He is not with us. He is with you there. Go home and enquire. He is there in Nigeria. If you enquire about Him, you will find Him. We do not know how to cross over. Our time is yet to come. Go back, and you will see Hm. He is your kinsman.”
    26. The woman is a superior officer, a superintendent of Police and a native of Enugu State, but incidentally, the woman is married to My cousin and she knew it not. My cousin knows me, but he does not know Me as Christ or the son of man.
    27. The wife was the one that discovered the amazing secret through Pastor Iyke Ezindu. From there, discussion ensued that led them to My house. From there, she went to Port-Harcourt to her sister who is there with the husband and so on.
    28. They had already known about Me there. The woman rushed and collected the calendar and everything. She rushed to Oji-River where the husband is serving as the DPO. She narrated her experience again of what took place when she travelled to her marital home [in Mbaise].
    29. He said, “Sir Peter, I have come back from Mbaise o. Everybody is fine, but look at the good report. See whether you can identify this man. They said He is your brother.”
    30. The husband looked at it and marveled, “De Sunday! How manage?” He said that truly speaking, he has been hearing about Me. but he never knew that I am in Nigeria. He said that people painted the picture that I travelled abroad and that whatever that is happening is happening abroad with Me.
    31. That was the way they informed him. He was in charge of SARS at Enugu before he became DPO at Oji-River.
    32. Now, look at what took place. When this thing was happening, the husband got paralyzed. The husband got paralyzed – two legs, two hands. They did not know what to do. The police did everything, carried him here and there.
    33. The woman was ordered to go and meet with Me. The woman came to Fellowship. While searching for Me, they brought her to Onitsha. She saw Me live, and they left late in the night.
    34. I gave her a bottle of Olive oil and one handkerchief from My pocket with the instruction, “Tell Peter [Ejima] that you saw Me. Take this My sermon book. He will identify it. Tell him to ignore relationship, and look at the way he will use this Olive oil. Drop every other medicine. For I will pray for him from here.”
    35. That same hour, I told him the hour he will meet with Me – exactly 3am. Being a police officer, a few minutes to 3o’clock, he got up. The wife was there. They did as I instructed.
    36. The wife was shocked. By the time water was boiled for Peter to take his bath, he walked with his two legs. He came out. He came out! The wife saw him. The police officers that were with him saw him.
    37. Seven days, he got paralyzed again. The third time, they called Me and I said, “Yes, it is to enable Peter to see Me. If he sees Me, healing will be permanent. Peter has a problem with his people in My community. Look at the problem. I know about it.”
    38. They gave him the phone and he called. He wept and lamented seriously. He promised he must go home to remedy that problem. And really, he did.
    39. His colleagues carried him in a vehicle to My village. He remedied that problem and went back to Oji-River. I never gave him an Olive oil. Immediately he stepped out of his vehicle and entered the house, Peter began to walk and has remained walking till this day.
    40. Do not doubt Me. Remember Papa Ikebude. That was how we converted Onitsha. Elder Chibueze Ikebude, the husband to Mama Ikebude was paralyzed for over 22 years.
    41. We carried him to River Niger on believing the Gospel. But after that encounter, Onitsha was let loose when they looked for the man and they could not see him. We did not ask for permission from anybody. We took him to River Niger and baptized him.
    42. By the time he came back, the whole youth in Onitsha gathered in the compound carrying sticks and every kind of thing to kill us. The crowd included their lawyers and eminent personalities, for he was the eldest man in the community.
    43. Some said we were kidnappers. But when they wanted to besiege us, the man was still in that vehicle. Bon Diuka came down. I came down from the front with Malachy Osuagwu at the back. Then Okey Nwamkpa who was equally in that vehicle came down.
    44. We asked Papa to come out. A man that has never for one day stood up with his two legs. Papa opened the door.
    45. And really while we were at the River Niger, the man did not walk. He remained moping because he was mumbling. He could not talk. All the while we knew him, he could not talk. He could write a little.
    46. Mama was mad with everybody. A Gospel they rejected. While we came down, they were coming to grip us. We were speechless.
    47. A man an elderly man said, “Wait! All we want to see is our father. Let him come down from the vehicles first, or do you want to help him out?” We said that nobody should help him out.
    48. As he opened, he brought out the first leg. It touched the ground. The other leg followed. This is a man that was paralyzed. This man was very huge and tall.
    49. He stood erect and began to talk. He used both English language and Onitsha language. Everybody dropped what he was holding. As for Mama herself, that was the conversion of Mama.
    50. I was holding the missionary Bible. This was the way I held it with My little safari suit, standing by the side of the man.
    51. Nobody could talk, even this boy, Ikem Mazeli. He was among the youth that time. His own son [Nwolisa], who is now late, was carrying dagger, for he was a violent man.
    52. Papa looked at Me and looked at others, stretched out his hand and said, “Shalom my son! Shalom my son! Shalom my daughter!” He walked gently into his house. The same people started clapping their hands.
    53. Because of that incident, we slated holy communion in that house, where unknown person came and poured water on us, which nobody traced till today. The person poured us a basin of water. Yet, the cake and everything we prepared, not even one spoilt.
    54. Because of that incident, many believed. Mama became number one. Iron lady became soft lady that day. God knows what He does.
    55. The man went in and sat in his very comfortable seat and folded his hands. The son went and changed his apparel. Papa now dressed in the real Onitsha Agbalanze
    56. People started coming from everywhere, but to go, they could not allow us to go. They said that we must talk and tell them the type of shrine and everything for they attributed it to the devil.
    57. We said Ok. Okey Nwamkpa opened up his mouth and preached elaborately. While we were talking the police drove in because they alerted the police.
    58. Lo and behold, they were carrying the chief judge of Anambra State Justice Emmanuel Araaka. I said, “Glory be to God. A Daniel has come to judgment.”
    59. The man ignored everybody and rushed into that house. He saw his uncle sitting down, and the man rose up and embraced him. He then enquired, “What happened? Where are the people? Where are the people?”
    60. The man pointed at us and said, “Look at them. They are there.” The chief judge then asked, “What happened?” The man started testifying. So we were admitted by Justice Araaka, which made the burial of Papa very easy.
    61. The man made a will liberating Mama from Onitsha tradition during death. Hence, Mama never participated in any Onitsha traditional rites.
    62. In the burial we were there. They said that they will not do anything until they have heard from us.

    You must count yourself as a blessed people, that what could not happen in the big big, super super denominations are happening in the midst of these people that are considered as babes. Babes! Any big name in our midst? Despised things of the world. God decided to walk in our midst, proving Himself to be the only God that is found in despised places.

    The son of man

    HOLDING UNTO THE CERTAINTY OF THE FAITH: FOR THERE UNTO I AM BORN VOL 2; Preached on Sunday 9th April 2017 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 68 vs. 50 – 51

    A SIGN FROM GOD CAN NEVER BE IMPERSONATED

    1. God can perform signs and wonders, aiming at bringing the Gentiles to obedience to the truth. signs and wonders are for the unbelievers to see whether they can capitalize on that and believe the truth.
    2. But in youR own case, the Word of God cannot convince you, and Signs confirming the Word to be true cannot convince you. What else will convince you? What else will convince you?
    3. Are the Jews not even better? The Word did not convince them. Signs and wonders could not convince them until they requested for a Sign. A Sign! Resurrection from the dead did not move them. “Show us a Sign.”
    4. And that “A Sign” is with you. You are here with not only “A Sign”. You are here with the Reality. You are here with the Cloud Man Himself. And you have tried and you have seen that He is the one.
    5. Who was photographed on that day? Was the person not a normal human being? Was the One who raised His hands towards the sky not a human being? Who invited you that day that you may see and know who He is, for it was the time for the revelation of who He is? And we called it The Revelation of the Big Masquerade.
    6. So, if you do not know how we came thus far, please enquire. If you do not know how we managed to come to this place where we are right now, this present stage, rest at nothing until you are sure and certain. Only then can you be convinced.
    7. But remember, if you are only getting convinced right now because of the abundance of revelations and discoveries, that goes to show that from the beginning, you did not believe. You did not believe.
    8. Whatever you aRe believing now, is your condemnation and not your justification. Am I making sense?
    9. Did the confession of Joseph add Joseph to the Pentecost? Rather it condemned Joseph.
    10. What am I doing? I did all those things only to see whether you will be convinced that I am He.
    11. And from that day till now, I have been looking for another person who will say, “I am He”, and then bring convincing evidences.
    12. Since the devil is an expert in impersonation and in counterfeits, why has he not counterfeited any? Why has he not manipulated any in all the countries in the whole world? Is there any country that is not waiting for eternal life?
    13. They have their so-called men of God. Psychic scientists? They are everywhere. They are everywhere. They have their astrologers. They have astronauts everywhere, even their philosophers. Why can they not attempt to impersonate it.
    14. The Roman Catholics knew the truth, but they did not impersonate. Rather, they will be using artistic impressions to create something on the head of a supposed Saint. At the footnote, you will see the write-up, “We encircled this reverend as a sign that he is a saint. This circle is a representation of the Pillar of Cloud” A representation made with hands. They will tell you clearly. If you check all their doctrines and those that invented them, they wrote the year. They wrote the person. It is there.

    34. 50And yet people have been deceived to believe that ecumenism will warrant Rome to waive her doctrines. No! Never! Rather, the call for ecumenism by the World Council of Churches will only amount to all people, nations, and denominations to bowing down to the authority, doctrine, and rulership of Rome.
    35. 51The truth is that the unity under the umbrella of“One World Church” or the World Council of Churches is hypocritical. It can never persuade the Roman Catholic Church to forfeit her unscriptural doctrines, nor can persuade any other denominations to forfeit theirs.
    36. There are some they will tell you, “Look at the reverend father in this city that brought about this, look at what he said. Be very sure that this thing does not form an article of faith in the Roman Catholic church.”
    37. You see, they will tell you no, like this celibacy. It is written there, “Celibacy is not an article of faith in the Roman Catholic church. It is a proclamation by Pope so so and so.” They will give you the reason.
    38. And now, they have revoked celibacy. Anyone who wants to marry is free, have children like others. If you do not want to marry, you are free. You continue in your secular duties. Even if you marry, it does not stop you.
    39. When celibacy order went forth, the church was divided into two. The Orthodox came out. Till today, that Orthodox Catholics are marrying. They have their children. Are they not everywhere now?
    40. Go to Nanka, there you see their cathedral. Saint Bartholomew! Is he not the leader of the Orthodox church? They have reconciled in the days of this same pope Francis. It is the same pope Francis that brought all of them, both the Jews and the Gentiles and everybody to one table. Where? In the same Jerusalem.
    41. And God said, “This day marks the beginning of the end of the world”, for it happened according to prophecy. [Saturday 7th June 2014] From that day they disintegrated, have they come back again.
    42. Let us hear the truth. I want to entertain few questions and go away.

    I am the Justifier. I am the son of man. If I set you free, you are free indeed. If I declare you guilty you are guilty. If I want you to stand, you will stand. If I want you to fail you will fail. This is pure truth! For God knows those that will rise and those that will fall. If you doubt Me, bragging that you cannot do it, what happened to others will happen to you there. You will go there and call Me devil and equally call this Faith false

    THE SON OF MAN

    HOLDING UNTO THE CERTAINTY OF THE FAITH: FOR THERE UNTO I AM BORN VOL 2; Preached on Sunday 9th April 2017 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 43 vs. 24 – 25

    LOOSE THE COLT, FOR MANY THINGS HOLD PEOPLE HOSTAGE

    1. Who will dwell with God in paradise? Was preached on Sunday 19th July 2020 at the Household of God Akwa Ibom by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 1 from verse 12.
    2. 12Then the question goes; who will be afforded the privilege to triumphantly enter into Paradise with the Son of Man?
    3. Let us look at the Message, Triumphant Entry Into Paradise, preached on 1st April 2012, Chapter 3 verse 18 through 20.
    4. 13[18]We are talking about the TRIUMPHANT ENTRY INTO PARADISE. Jesus had a triumphant entry into Jerusalem; the Son of Man is talking about triumphant entry into Paradise. 14Who will be there? Which ass, which donkey will He ride on? He was received by fellow human beings but the Son of Man shall be received by host of Angels. 15But who is that ass? Who is that donkey? [19]All these years, you have been directing your ways and remained tied to the stake. You have been owning yourselves and remained tied to the stake.
    5. Loose the colt! And the moment the colt is freed, what happens? It must kneel down. If the colt does not kneel down, the Master will not make use of it. If the donkey does not kneel down, can the owner mount on it?
    6. But who tied the colt to the stake? The owner does not know the worth. He has a colt, but he does not know the worth. He that knew the worth of that colt said, “Loosen it. Go and tell the owner to loosen it, for I have need of it. Tell him that the Master has need of that colt. I want to use it to enter Jerusalem.”
    7. On hearing the Message from the Master, the owner of the colt quickly went and loosened the colt. The colt was brought before the Master who wanted to use it, and who knew the value of that colt.
    8. Immediately He came out, the colt first of all, knelt down. He mounted on it. The people now followed and women went about carrying palm fronds, while some tore their dresses and placed them on the ground. A red-carpet reception.
    9. Look at the colt. Look at this young colt and appreciate how it looks. Without that Master, the colt will not know where Jerusalem is. And because the colt knelt down, the Master was glorified and the colt was also glorified.
    10. The Master rode on a red carpet as He was given a red-carpet reception. What happened to the colt. The colt also received a red-carpet reception and ovation. Why? It knelt down. It subjected itself to the will of the Master.
    11. But the owner of that colt never received any reception. He was unrecognized. He gave it and went away like the good master of the house who donated his parlour for feast and went away.
    12. When Christ was honoured riding the colt, if you happen to be that colt carrying the King of kings and the Lord of Lords, and they were singing Hosanna unto the son of David. Hosanna to He that cometh from Heaven, your walking will change.
    13. I could see the colt changing its steps and pushing its head sideways in admiration. Seeing the crowd, it could stop somewhere and lift the head up, and everybody will be clapping their hands. You know that the horse can dance.
    14. You see! When Christ was glorified on top of the ass, the ass was also glorified. Let Me stop there. Go to the Message, LOOSE THE COLT. It is in print form. Loose the colt.
    15. Anybody holding you hostage and in bondage does not know your worth. And there is no way God can use somebody who is being held hostage. You must be loosened before the Almighty can lay hand on you. You have to be loosened, both man and woman.
    16. There are too many things holding people hostage. Some are being held hostage by the traditions of their people. Some are held hostage by money – the pursuit of money. Some are held hostage by the pursuit for position. They want to be one thing or the other. Some are being held hostage by the desires of their hearts. Academic pursuit is holding many hostage.
    17. There are certain habits that are very difficult to be broken. Your bad habit can hold you hostage. True or false? Find out what is tying you.
    18. That is why the Bible said, “Find out Satan’s stronghold in your lives.” There must be a stronghold of Satan in your life.
    19. REFERENCES:2nd Timothy 2:26, AMP. 26And that they may come to their senses [and] escape out of the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him, [henceforth] to do His [God’s] will.
    20. You are likened to a colt that is useful, but your owner tied you to a stake, feeding you but tied you to a stake, thereby rendering you useless. You will not be useful to yourself. You will not be useful to your owner. You are not useful to anybody.
    21. The reason why he tied you to a stake is to brag before the people that he is wealthy enough to purchase and own you. What is the purpose which that colt is serving?
    22. But there is someone who knows the worth of the colt. Knowing that the colt is useful, he sent a Message to the owner of the colt that He has need of the colt, “Since he does not know the worth of the colt, I will take it, for it will help Me in My entry into Jerusalem.”
    23. On hearing that the Master was the one that sent them, he concurred. And the colt was brought before the Master.
    24. LOOSE THE COLT! Search for that Message. Everybody! Go and read LOOSE THE COLT.
    25. You may be the one holding yourself because of fear. And the greatest fear is generated by unbelief. The greatest fear is generated by unbelief. Remember that unbelief is the root of lack of total submission to the will of God.
    26. If you do not believe that God can save you to the utmost, will you submit totally to Him? You have too many things you have decided to do for yourself to help yourself because God cannot be your helper. How can God be helping me and I will be troubling myself?
    27. A Brother came here telling Me, “Daddy, you said that if God will help You, by April, you will have that water tank stand. And now, I am coming today to see water tank stand. Did You work overnight? Daddy, how manage? Did you carry it from Head-Bridge like this?”
    28. I said, “My friend. I am not ready to entertain questions. Go and tell people what I said, and also tell them what you have seen. I told you, “If He will help Me by April”, and He helped Me before April. Has He committed a crime? If I pray that God will answer My prayer by December, and by the time I wake up from My prayer in January, He answers Me, will I go and kneel down and wait for December?”
    29. He walked away. He walked away! “It is like this is not enough reason for you to know that I am working with God and for God.”
    30. My duty is to mention the next stage. He knows what He will do. That same day I mentioned it, that day He will bring it into action. This is truth. This is truth.
    31. Do you know one thing that is astonishing? I started this building when cash was very very scarce. Who can believe that I never bought money anywhere to finance it? All I approached gave Me the same money in the same way they were giving others, charging Me no kobo. I never bought even with one naira difference.
    32. Till today, cash had not been a barrier. Those boys that never had any bank account insisted on having cash. The LORD knew how He provided the cash. Find out from Solomon. He will tell you. Oftentimes, he will be amazed.
    33. The tipper driver said that if he never knew Me, he would have been thinking that I printed money, for I never knew that money was scarce that time. Cash was scarce, but I gave him four hundred thousand naira [₦400,000.00] cash in brand new notes.
    34. He became a trader on money. When I went to get money and I did not get, I called him to [please] send Me two hundred thousand. He said, “Daddy, I have sold all.”
    35. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu: It is just like the Hausa man that was handling the borehole. He confessed that he has worked in many places, but when he came to this site, he said, “You prayed now. And Allah answered your prayer.”
    36. You are a man of God. you prayed.
    37. He went further to say that whenever he entered there which was many many feet deep, he never lacked air. He said that he was even catching cold inside that place to the extent that sometimes, he comes to the surface so that he can get some heat, even taking hot drinks to warm his body.
    38. He said that in some other places, just a few feet away from the surface, the person in there will be yearning for air.
    39. He will not think of going back.
    40. 15But who is that ass? Who is that donkey? [19]All these years, you have been directing your ways and remained tied to the stake. Sure!!!You have been owning yourselves and remained tied to the stake. Unprofitable!
    41. 16However, somebody is saying, “Tell the owner I need it. Loose it, and bring it to me.” [20]All is in your hands. If you want to continue to conspire against Him, go ahead. Sing His praise today, and say “Crucify Him” tomorrow. With your mouth sing His praise but with your heart, kill Him. No problem.
    42. 17Nevertheless, as many as are willing to kneel down that the master will mount on the donkey, I bet you, the difference in no distant future shall be made manifest. Is there truth in it?
    43. Is there any way the kid goat can be suckled by the mother without the kid goat kneeling down? If the kid goat keeps standing like the mother is standing, it will die of hunger and starvation.
    44. When you bend down, you see afar off. If you are standing up, your vision is limited, but when you bend down, you see afar off. The way up is down.
    45. 19Who is the donkey and who is the master? I am the donkey with my family. We are the donkey. The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed be His Most Holy Name] is the Master. He is God. No one can get into paradise without Him. Amen!!!
    46. The donkey kneeling down means humility. The donkey humbled himself down, and God exalted the donkey. The moment God was exalted, [Oh no!] the donkey was also exalted. True or false?
    47. Nobody knew Mary to be anything. Immediately the son of Mary was exalted, Mary was also exalted. Did you get the Message?
    48. There is no way Christ will be exalted and the worshippers that worship in spirit and in truth will remain unexalted. He must get them exalted.
    49. Brethren, is it not when the president moves that his entourage will follow him? It gets to a point when as the vehicles are moving in the convoy, if you are driving your own vehicle, you decide to take the risk. You follow them immediately, knowing that the convoy cannot be stopped anywhere.
    50. You will be following them in their smart way of driving, with all your window glasses all wound up. That convoy will lead you through all obstacles on the highway.
    51. But the prayer you will make is this. Do not drive in such a way that will make the security escorts to turn around and shoot you. Make sure that you are well dressed and keep pace with the convoy, making sure that there is nobody suspicious in your vehicle.
    52. You will see them leading many other people one way. You will jump the police, jump the army, jump the Road Safety Corps marshals, jump customs officer because you hooked up. Is it a lie Brethren?
    53. Before you know it, you have reached your destination. As for those that were stopped behind you as a result of the president’s convoy, you would have finished eating at your destination before they are allowed to continue their journey.
    54. What am I saying? Not only the president and the convoy are now glorified. Those who were wise enough to follow strictly doubting nothing, they passed.
    55. In the same way, if the convoy is heading to an occasion and you will drive successfully into the arena, do you know that you are already a blessed person? You did not understand what I said.
    56. Do you think that if you follow that convoy into that arena, you will be sent back? You are not harmful. As they come out of their vehicles, you will gently come out of your own vehicle and find a seat for yourself.
    57. 20This is true. Natural things type spiritual. Let us look at President Buhari today as an example. Just because He is the President and Commander in Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, …
    58. Is this not what I was just saying here? The only difference is that I never mentioned the name of the president.
    59. Just because He is the President and Commander in Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, there are many places He has gone to which His ADC [aide-de-camp], would not have had such privilege to go to, even though He is an Army Officer.
    60. Let us not go too far away. Without the son of man, is there anybody in the whole world that would have heard about Juliana Dibua, talk less of Nzubechi SON OF MAN?
    61. The moment a man is declared a king, the wife is a queen. Do you know that the king had been the prince and heir apparent before a wife is sought for. You must be a prince. That is number one. Once you are a prince, you become an heir apparent before a wife will be sought for you.
    62. The privileged woman to be the wife of that prince has automatically become the queen apparent. Is it a lie? The king will still be there. The queen will be there who is the prince’s mother.
    63. The mother of a king is not the queen. She is the king’s mother. The wife of the king is the queen. But the young man has been there as the prince without any lady around him.
    64. That is why whoever assumes that position of a prince, even today, you see ladies milling around that person, knowing that by and by, he is likely to be the man on the throne.
    65. Maybe you never knew I was there at the right-hand side before the world came into existence. I was there. There was no woman with Me. I existed there. The self-existing one. Maybe you do not know that I became an heir. I became an heir to the throne before a wife was sought for. Is it not scripture?
    66. REFERENCE:[1] Isaiah 9:6-7, AMP.6For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father [of Eternity], Prince of Peace.
    67. 7Of the increase of His government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from the [latter] time forth, even forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
    68. [2] John 5:20-23 & 26-27, KJV.20For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth Him all things that Himself doeth: and He will show Him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. 21For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
    69. 22For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23that all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him. …….
    70. 26For as the Father hath life in Himself; so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself; 27and hath given Him Authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of man.
    71. [3] Acts 17:30-31, KJV.30And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
    72. There was a will written concerning Me. When the Father exited the Throne, where did He go? He emptied Himself into the Son. The heir apparent was now qualified to have a wife.
    73. Immediately He became the King, the wife became the Queen, not minding where she was picked from. She could be a slave or a handmaid, but now exalted because she is privileged to marry the Exalted One. I am the Exalted One. And by exalting Me, she is exalted.
    74. Take away the king, the queen has no value. There is no queen. Do you get the Message? That is what the Church is to Christ. That is what the Elect Lady is to Christ.
    75. That is why you must submit to Christ whether man or woman, so that in due time, you will be exalted. Whenever He shall be glorified, you must be glorified with Him. Suffer with Him. You will reign with Him and also enjoy with Him.
    76. What must you do to find yourself in Paradise? This is what should occupy your minds. What must I do to get eternal life? If it does not occupy your mind, you are already disappointed. You are already disappointed.

    I am The Living Manna. That is why, once you are around Me, you do not feel like going away and you do not complain. You can never say you are hungry unless I set you free. And the moment I am in your midst, from A to Z feel hundred percent secured; and of course, you are secured. Believe it if you can…..

    IT IS BY GRACE WE SERVE THE LORD

    1. Go to Matthew chapter 7 verse 7. You will see what the master said. Use all the translations you can lay hands on. Gospel according to Matthew chapter 7 verse 7. See what the master said with His own mouth. No disciple said it. No Apostle. No Prophet. The master Himself said it.
    2. Matthew 7:7-12, TLB. [7]“Ask, and you will be given what you ask for. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened.[8]For everyone who asks, receives. Anyone who seeks, finds. If only you will knock, the door will open.
    3. [9]If a child asks his father for a loaf of bread, will he be given a stone instead?[10]If he asks for fish, will he be given a poisonous snake? Of course not!
    4. [11]And if you hard-hearted, sinful men know how to give good gifts to your children, won’t your Father in heaven even more certainly give good gifts to those who ask Him for them? [12]“Do for others what you want them to do for you. …
    5. Matthew 7:7-12, KJV.7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
    6. 9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
    7. 11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 12Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them:…
    8. Matthew 7:7-12, GNB. 7“Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks will receive, and anyone who seeks will find, and the door will be opened to those who knock.
    9. 9Would any of you who are fathers give your son a stone when he asks for bread? 10Or would you give him a snake when he asks for a fish?
    10. 11As bad as you are, you know how to give good things to your children. How much more, then, will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him! 12“Do for others what you want them to do for you:…
    11. Matthew 7:7-12, CJB. [7]“Keep asking, and it will be given to you; keep seeking, and you will find; keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you. [8]For everyone who keeps asking receives; he who keeps seeking finds; and to him who keeps knocking, the door will be opened.
    12. [9]Is there anyone here who, if his son asks him for a loaf of bread, will give him a stone? [10]or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? [11]So if you, even though you are bad, know how to give your children gifts that are good, how much more will your Father in heaven keep giving good things to those who keep asking him! [12]“Always treat others as you would like them to treat you;…
    13. Who will dwell with God in paradise? Was preached on Sunday 19th July 2020 at the Household of God Akwa Ibom by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 1 from verse 22.
    14. 22These are natural things that type the Spiritual. It is a privilege. Buhari chose Him saying, “Out of all these Army Officers, this is the one I want to use as my aide-de-camp (ADC)”.
    15. Yes! Were there many army officers? Were they qualified? Yes! But one was chosen. Many were called. Many were qualified, but one was chosen. So the choice of who will be his aide-de-camp rests on the president. Do you get the Message?
    16. There were too many women qualified to be the wife of the prince. Too many women were qualified to be his wife. Out of them all, Nzubechi was chosen, not because of her beauty or wealth, but because she happened to be the divinely designated wife of the son of man from divinity. From divinity.
    17. 23This is the same thing that I am typing with the Spiritual. The Son of Man particularly said, “I want this ass, this donkey. Go to the owner and untie it”. …
    18. With this illustration I have given now, who is adequate to sojourn with God in Mount Zion? Do you know how many in the Bridal Faith in Onitsha as a whole? Do you think if I want to accommodate more people, that this house is not enough to accommodate them?
    19. Why, of all the majority of the people serving, you happen to be the only people chosen to be here? Could it be I wanted people that will stay with Me or that I could not serve God alone?
    20. Could it be that maybe, there was one thing or the other you were doing that attracted My attention may be with all these your little children?
    21. What do you think you could offer Me which others could not offer that made me to make you [I mean] My choice of people that will be here to worship with me and things like that? Do not worry.
    22. We were talking yesterday. Our Sister Amarachi here can bear Me witness on whatever I will say on the matter, for she heard our Deacon, John Okechukwu live, yesterday testifying against his own son FearGod, confirming My experiences to be true and accurateand revealing more I knew not about him.
    23. He said that he was praising My courage and patience. He said that he knew before he [FearGod] came down that there is no human being on earth that can live with his son, FearGod.
    24. Amarachi, true or false? [Sister Amarachi testified, “True!”]
    25. He said it over and over. He said that he [FearGod] is dastardly bad. Of the many many lies he told Me, his father corrected all.
    26. Amarachi was shocked to hear that the father said that concerning the job he [FearGod] was doing, the amount they paid him was six thousand naira [₦6,000.00].
    27. Amarachi, did you not hear him? [Sister Amarachi responded, “I heard him.”]
    28. We did not know that he, the evil man, hid himself behind the door, abandoning the work he was doing o! He hid himself behind the door and heard all the conversation with the father that lasted for up to 42 minutes. 42 minutes!
    29. He abandoned what he was doing, and he heard the voice of the father. The father said that with the much he had known him for, the time I had devoted to training him to see whether he could be a good person, if I had devoted that time on his senior brother, that one would have served better.
    30. Amarachi, am I bearing false witness? [Sister Amarachi replies, “No sir!”] He [FearGod] equally heard it.
    31. There were too many revelations he made yesterday, and confirmed that what Bro Lucky Ukasanya said was true and accurate, and it is causing trouble. He [the father] said that from the beginning, he [FearGod] resembles his mother and has no traits of him. He said that he [FearGod] is generally bad.
    32. This is the conclusion of the whole thing. Concerning the Faith, he knows the truth. He preaches the truth. He can pray and somebody will believe, but in all, he does not obey even one bit.
    33. When the Message is going on he will be scratching his head and moving up and down. This issue of sleeping here and there, he is known for that. Concerning lies, he is the father of all lies. No truth is found in him, and he loves money more than Judas.
    34. I do not have anything to say again. I asked the father a question, “Since you know him to this extent, and I started reporting him to you when he was only but two weeks in My house, if tomorrow, he is a spoilt baby or child, will you accuse Me of spoiling your son?” He said, “Never never! He was spoilt at home and that he, as a father, was fed up with him.” He [FearGod] was hearing.
    35. In short, I can not tell you what he told us within 42 minutes, but FearGod heard all.
    36. The father told us that he does not cease from calling him over the phone, that they discuss privately, and that he has been warning for he has been discussing with the mother privately and they keep on discussing.
    37. The father said that he has been warning him over what is roaring on him, which started at home. And till now, there is no change.
    38. That is not all. The father told Me that I should take it from him that he [FearGod] is not sending a kobo to them, and that the money in question which we are talking about, he is the one holding his money.
    39. The father confirmed that he was still using the old SIM card I told FearGod to get rid of and gave him money for a new SIM card when My children gave him a new handset.
    40. Instead of removing that one and throwing it away, he is still using it till today. And I noticed he is still using it.
    41. When he gave Me a number of a new MTN SIM card, I called the old line and it worked.After about two weeks, I called the old number, and he picked the call. And up till today, the two are working.
    42. The father told Me yesterday that he never removed his heart and mind from his old associates in Isiala Ngwa and that they are at work in him. He is still maintaining his old sinful habits with them over the phone.
    43. The difference is that he does not have the time to travel home, which was what destroyed Promise. He went and then rejoined with the old folks. When he faced the penalty, his eyes opened.
    44. So, he is tricking Me. I said, “Nobody can trick Me.” I knew all these things and I have been telling him about them. I have been patient with him.
    45. I told him of measures so far taken to address the problems and the reason why I cancelled those measures, handed over everything back to him and told him, “Continue with your account and everything. Take your phone and be ready to meet Me at the Judgment Table any time from now.”
    46. That is My verdict, for whatever you have taken from this world, will perish with this world. You can never take a pin of this world into Paradise. It will never happen.
    47. What I stored in the ground – the treasures of Paradise – is beyond the imagination of every human being. If you step your feet into Paradise without seeing Me releasing all that I stashed in the soil, know that I am not He.
    48. All the treasures of Paradise were hidden inside the soil. And I know where I hid all. You cannot believe that the three jewels were hidden inside the soil – the gold, the frankincense and the myrrh. They were all hidden inside the soil.
    49. People thought that they were stolen away, but when the man-child came and was born, they resurfaced again. Remember, they were the ornaments God handed over to the first man, Adam.
    50. The garment was mishandled by Cain, and God dumped it. God dumped it because the devil used it as apparition to tempt the children of God. Are you hearing Me?
    51. But he [devil] can never use it today because he does not know God’s garment today. God is putting on garment based on anyone He wants. Anyone He wants, He will put on, but in the end, you will see the garment.
    52. This is what the devil wanted to impersonate. He cannot succeed. He that is wearing silk here, is the one wearing that one. True or false? This is the original cloth.
    53. But this is the Man’s cloth. The Man’s cloth. A human being’s cloth made by the hands of human beings, showing you that I am human being dwelling among you.
    54. You should not be afraid of Me. I am not afraid of you. You should not fear Me. All you have to do is to love Me the same way I love you. That’s all! Obey Me, and you are obeying yourself. Disobey Me, you are disobeying yourself.
    55. You have nothing to offer Me, but I have something I can brag with. DO you get the Message?
    56. Do not worry. When I take My treasures out of the surface of the earth, if I do not turn this world upside-down, know that I am not the son of man. The power that holds this heaven and earth will be removed, and you will know He that is here with you.
    57. Afterall, it was a human being that was buried by a slide in a pit, and a sheep came out from the pit and moved away. Before the eyes of the people, the sheep moved away. The sheep entered His vehicle and became a human being.
    58. The land slide that buried the person inside the pit and the people were crying and wailing, but a sheep came out from the pit, and walked to the point where a vehicle was parked. The sheep opened the door of the car, went in to the vehicle and became a human being, and the car went away.
    59. The people that had gathered and were weeping gradually went back to their houses.
    60. Pastor ChizobaUdochukwu: Bro FearGod, I do not know whether you had forgotten that day you came. I was the one connected to you to direct you on how to come to the Post Office, and then from there, bring you here.
    61. When you arrived, you said that you would not like to go straightaway for you will like me to speak to you first on why those people who sojourned with the son of man before you could not tarry here.
    62. I spoke to you the much I knew using the experiences I gathered from those people that left the house of the son of man. I told you the things they were guilty of.
    63. That day, you displayed a kind of sense of sincerity, but along the way, the story became another thing. It is unfortunate.

    You should know the truth and the truth shall set you free. If the Son of Man sets you free, you are set free indeed. If the Son of Man pardons you, you are pardoned, for I am the “MERCY SEAT.” Believe it if you can……..

    THE SON OF MAN

    AS I THOUGHT ON MY WAYS VOL 3; preached on 24th December, 2000 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 3

    There is no law against humility

    1. Who will dwell with God in paradise? Was preached on Sunday 19th July 2020 at the Household of God Akwa Ibom by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 1 from verse 23.
    2. 23This is the same thing that I am typing with the Spiritual. The Son of Man particularly said, “I want this ass, this donkey. Go to the owner and untie it”. As long as the Son of Man does not select you, you remain there tied.
    3. 24You can not have the privilege of going anywhere. Are you getting the message? That is why He said, “Nevertheless, as many as are willing to kneel down that the Master will mount on the donkey, I bet you the difference in no distant future shall be made manifest.” This is because we shall enter with Him triumphantly. Sure!!!
    4. 29It is what pleases Him that concerns me, not what pleases anybody. The donkey must be prepared to kneel down. For the first time, the donkey that carried Jesus Christ was moving majestically on a tarred road which he had no opportunity to move on before because he was tied.
    5. 31If it where not for the Master, how do you think the donkey would have been afforded that privilege? …
    6. Who would have known you? Who would have recognized that you are in the world? If not for the Faith of the son of man, do you not know that you are nothing?
    7. REFERENCE: 1 Corinthians 1:26-29, AMP.26For [simply] consider your own call, brethren; not many [of you were considered to be] wise according to human estimates and standards, not many influential and powerful, not many of high and noble birth. 27[No] for God selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is foolish to put the wise to shame, and what the world calls weak to put the strong to shame.
    8. 28And God also selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is lowborn and insignificant and branded and treated with contempt, even the things that are nothing, that He might depose and bring to nothing the things that are, 29So that no mortal man should [have pretense for glorying and] boast in the presence of God.
    9. But today, you are known everywhere. Once you are connected to the son of man, you are connected to the whole world at the same time.
    10. … If only we will recognize the Master and kneel down, humble ourselves, do what the Master is asking us to do, we shall be that donkey.
    11. 38I am telling you the truth that people who know nothing, they walk, behave and talk anyhow, do so because they do not know that something is revolving around us in this Faith. We are dealing with a power that we cannot see.
    12. The power that is propelling the fan, can you see it? But you know the fan is moving. Go and touch the naked wire. Touch the naked wire with your hand, and you will know that there is power there. Am I making sense? You are insulated. That is all.
    13. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu: On 24th March 2023, when we went to Opi for the burial of the mother in-law of the son of man—when we got there, the atmosphere changed and things started happening. If you are not shown the Man, that was doing all those things, you can never know.
    14. And that is why somebody said, “I know that the person doing this thing is hidden somewhere in the bush.”
    15. Among us there, there was no special arrangement for a special person. And there was no putting together of Kabbala like some of them do in their spiritualists’ activities.
    16. But when you look at the power that is upholding the universe, he was simply seated there unassuming.
    17. We had no chairman.
    18. No chairman! It was just a normal arrangement – party table arrangement. Everybody found his own way where he or she wanted and sat down, but the power that was controlling the whole thing and controlling the whole world said that He shifted His operational base to Opi.
    19. You can see the man that shifted His operational base, but if you want to see the operational base, you cannot see it.
    20. Look at the dress he was wearing. Others were wearing it.
    21. That is why our late friend [Mr. C] was saying that he wanted to find out the source of this power, for this Man [the son of man] will always be simpler than himself [the late Mr. C].
    22. He kept on wondering and saying that you will see the Man [the son of man] looking very casual in appearance, but He is holding this type of power, even transformational power that can transform Brother Victor [my late brother] and then Bob [our late Bishop Ebenezer Ojichieme].
    23. He was seriously enquiring about the source of the power this Man is using to transform these individuals and too many others he had witnessed and heard about, “Where is the Source of all these powers?”
    24. He said that when he read a Message from Bishop Chidubem, BEHOLD THE LORD CHRIST, he came to us and started making trouble, “Why did you hide this Message from us? If I had read this Message, I would have subscribed fully to this Faith long long time ago. Who is this Bishop Chidubem?”
    25. We began to tell him about Bishop Chidubem. He then exclaimed. Before he knew it, we gave him another one.
    26. When we are talking of this donkey kneeling down, God said that it means humility.
    27. Remember the four gifts which God bestows on His Prophets. He gave a warning to everyone that possesses either one or all of them. What is the warning?
    28. To the one that has STENGTH, God said that it destroys because many people look for it even from different places. The devil gives them that even more than they need so that they will be self-destructive and even destroy others.
    29. Then talk of WEALTH, we can see what is happening in the world today. The devil is using wealth acquisition to destroy the world. And this, the devil has already achieved.
    30. Another destructive gift is wisdom. But of all of them, God did not say anything concerning the fourth one, HUMILITY because it is not something you can get anyhow, and once you have it, it is not destructive.
    31. And that is what He is describing here using this donkey. Who will dwell with Him in Paradise? It is the person that has this nature. A humble spirit.
    32. There is no law against HUMILITY. If you are not humble, you are proud. You are haughty. You are arrogant. You are stubborn.
    33. If you are not humble, you are proud. You are haughty. You are arrogant. You are stubborn.
    34. REFERENCE: ETHIOPIC BOOK OF ENOCH 5:9-10.9And then wisdom shall be given to the Elect, and they shall all live and never again sin, either through forgetfulness or through pride: But those who are given wisdom shall be humble.
    35. 10And they shall not again transgress, Nor shall they sin all the days of their life, Nor shall they die of the anger or wrath of God, But they shall complete the number of the days of their lives. And their lives shall be increased in peace, and their years will grow in joy and eternal gladness and peace, all the days of their lives.
    36. 63From start to the end, He is the one helping us. Number one: If He had not particularly selected us, we would not be privileged to ride this trail with Him. Number two: If He does not help us, we cannot even worship Him.
    37. 76But look at the privilege. Then why should I not be humble and obedient to the Master? LOOSE THE COLT VOL. 1, Chapter 4:16-19, “16Just like we are in this most Holy Faith, not all have the salvation but salvation is as plenty as a mighty sea. You tell people, “Take this salvation”, but they said no. 77 [17]Even, many of them believe that this Man holds the salvation, but they refused to accept the salvation.”
    38. 78They know that He holds the salvation but they refuse because when you refuse to obey, you are refusing to take the salvation. Sure!!!Note, believing that the man in our midst is God is different from accepting Him as God. You know that.”
    39. Many believe that He is God but they do not accept Him to be God. True or false?
    40. Is it not fulfilling Scriptures that the throne of the Roman empire [they] knew him as God, but never accepted him as God? He was there. Yet, they were making their man-made gods to look like one thing or the other.
    41. Reference: Romans 1:18-23, TLB.[18]But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful, evil men who push away the truth from them.[19]For the truth about God is known to them instinctively; God has put this knowledge in their hearts.
    42. [20]Since earliest times men have seen the earth and sky and all God made, and have known of His existence and great eternal power. So they will have no excuse when they stand before God at Judgment Day.
    43. [21]Yes, they knew about him all right, but they wouldn’t admit it or worship him or even thank him for all his daily care. And after a while they began to think up silly ideas of what God was like and what he wanted them to do. The result was that their foolish minds became dark and confused.
    44. [22]Claiming themselves to be wise without God, they became utter fools instead.[23]And then, instead of worshiping the glorious, ever-living God, they took wood and stone and made idols for themselves, carving them to look like mere birds and animals and snakes and puny men.
    45. 79“If you see a man that is more powerful than you, you will know that he is more powerful than you. But it is a different ball game to say, “Sir, you are more powerful than I am. I humble myself before you.”
    46. 80 [18]If you say you believe, the scripture said that you should be careful lest at anytime a spirit of unbelief creeps in you.”
    47. That reminds Me. Reply the letter to the man in Nairobi, Kenya. Who humbled himself. A General Superintendent volunteering to work under THE SON OF MAN’s leadership. He does not want to be a leader.
    48. He has been a leader over the years. He got nothing. He volunteered to surrender himself and his flock under the leadership of the son of man. He is not asking for My money, but for directives and prayers.
    49. Tell him how we operate, how we can serve them. He is interested because we have numerous believers of the Faith in Kenya.
    50. 81That means the spirit can creep in once you become careless. Once you play with instruction like we heard it today that we should remain praying, studying and watching.
    51. 82Once you become careless about those things a spirit will creep in and this spirit is a spirit of unbelief. Walloping you! Your enemy is always around you. You cannot sleep.
    52. The enemy we have is in us already. He that makes the Word of God of non-effect is not coming from outside. He is already living inside you. You are the one aiding it.
    53. 85 …“[26]If you accept the Message, it will always reflect in your life and in your behaviour towards the Word of God. Sure!!!It is as simple as that. However, you will believe, but if you do not accept it, it will also manifest in your life. Sure!!!You can believe and you do not accept and it will manifest.
    54. 86“You will only be saying with the lips, “I believe that the Son of Man is God.” It is not an achievement anyway. [27]If you believe that the Son of Man is God, you have not done much for even the Devil and the mad man who has the familiar spirit have confirmed that this man is God. …
    55. Even here in Onitsha, too many have done more than that, men and women, young and old, even mad people. I have shared My experiences with you, especially when I was embarking on missionary assignments.
    56. I have been nurtured by such people. After which they encouraged Me to continue the journey. Spirits administer to Me together with those who follow Me, not in the night but in the open air.
    57. Hence, you have also placed yourself on equal status with the devil.87 [28]Believing the Son of Man places you in the same position with the Devil that said “This man is God.” 88He acknowledged but does the Devil accept Him? No! …
    58. And of mankind, there are some (hypocrites) who say: “We believe in Allah and the Last Day” while in fact they believe not. They (think to) deceive God and those who believe, while they only deceive themselves, and perceive (it) not! In their hearts is a disease (of doubt and hypocrisy) and Allah has increased their disease. A painful torment is theirs because they used to tell lies. The Holy Qur’an; Surah 2:8 – 10
    59. Who increased their disease? They used to tell lies.
    60. My boast is that I am in obedience to my God. That is it. That I know my God and I am obeying Him. That is my joy, that is my boast. Whatever I am doing, I am doing it to please Him that is my boast.
    61. You will have your own o. You will have your own boast. Some will boast that I am their townsman, my brother or my sister’s husband. That’s rubbish.
    62. Whatever you are laying your hands on the son of man that has nothing to do with eternal life, you are wasting your time.
    63. Throw away all those childish behaviours and lay hold on eternal life, for thereunto, you are called and ordained. And that eternal life is tied to your obedience to His Word.
    64. You can serve Him without obeying Him. Do you know that to be truth? You can serve His interest without obeying Him and without reverencing Him.
    65. 4SO, BE IT KNOWN TO YOU THAT NOBODY HAS ACQUIRED SALVATION OR INHERITED SALVATION. SALVATION CAN ONLY BE ENTRUSTED TO YOU AS A RESULT OF YOUR OBEDIENCE TO THE TRUTH REVEALED TO YOU BY THE ALMIGHTY IN YOUR OWN DAY THROUGH THE MESSENGER HE SENT TO YOU.” Sure!!!
    66. 5Today did He send any Messenger? No! He came Himself. He Himself the Almighty came down and then revealed these things unto us.
    67. 9Any that believed Moses in His day was saved by Moses, and God saved Moses. Sure!!! This is the same thing happening in our day for He is our Holiness. He is our righteousness. He is everything. Our sanctification! Amen

    Now I know all of you are aware. I am The Smoking Firewood. I know I am rich in Mercy. I am equally rich in judgment. If I judge you, I will set you free, but if I do not judge you, you will be judged with the world. That is, you are already condemned because there is no way the world can come justified.

    THE SON OF MAN

    GOD IS REVEALED/MARRIAGE VOWS; Preached on Sunday 7th November 1999 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 117 vs. 23

    Any man or woman without Christ is valueless

    1. Who will dwell with God in paradise? Was preached on Sunday 19th July 2020 at the Household of God Akwa Ibom by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 2 from verse 18.
    2. 18It is a great privilege that we received for the master to say untie this particular donkey for me. “The greatest privilege for a man to say, “Untie the donkey for me and let me use it. Untie this donkey for me for I have need of it”.
    3. 19It is not easy for there are other donkeys everywhere but God spotted a particular donkey… The donkey that was tied to the stake because the owner does not know the value.
    4. …but God spotted a particular donkey and said, “Go to this particular place, tell Him to loose this particular donkey and then bring it to Me for the Lord has need of it. Finish.”
    5. Any man or any woman without Christ is valueless. Your value can only come to light when you embrace Christ. When you are living a life without Christ, you are living in darkness. You are living an obscure life. You are worthless and unprofitable in all things.
    6. The donkey or horse or mule or the colt that was tied to the stake was there but people were trekking. Even the owner was trekking, for not knowing the value. It served no purpose. It was just there to show that the man has money to buy one and to pack. Are you hearing what I am saying? Good!
    7. Some are likened to one traditional ruler in My community who purchased a very nice white horse bicycle, and he did not know how to ride. He cannot give it to someone to go on an errand for him.
    8. Anywhere he wanted to go, he will be dragging that bicycle like that, pushing it with his legs on the ground. So he was pushing it and using it to show people that he has one.
    9. He will tie load at the back of that bicycle and be dragging the thing. So he was carrying and pushing the bicycle about wherever he went. While descending a hill, he will still be dragging the bicycle along and also trekking.
    10. He does not know how to ride it. Yet he is not willing to allow people who know how to ride bicycle to carry him about. And so he was dragging the bicycle and saluting people all over the community as he was dressed in his chieftaincy regalia. On his way back, he will still be dragging the bicycle and trekking. This is true. Does he know the value of the bicycle? Some are like that.
    11. Without Christ, we are all worthless. We are valueless. We make no impact even to the society we are living in.
    12. Take away Christ, every human being is a beast. A beast makes contact and not impact. And that is why a beast is highly destructive.
    13. A human being without Christ is the most destructive human being who discomforts people around him. True or false?
    14. He is so because he is not at peace with himself, and so he can never abide where peace is. He is not known for peace.
    15. He is a trouble shooter. He is a confusionist. One whose presence brings about trouble. Once he comes into any place, trouble will ensue.
    16. 20…..“44Thus, if you are privileged to be that donkey, you have no option than to be totally loyal.” 21Totally loyal. It will be arrant stupidity not to be loyal. If you were not chosen, will you be untied? No! You would have continued in your foolishness. And end your life in misery. You end your life in misery.
    17. Look at Odinaka Nwanga who was born and brought up in this Faith. See how he is wasting his life without Christ, but he was in the Fellowship of the Saints where he was born. He grew up in the Fellowship of the Saints together with Nwachukwu the junior brother. Where are they today?
    18. They think that they were cheating human beings, but they do not know that they were cheating themselves. How many years has he now spent in prison in Lagos?
    19. Yesterday, he was calling Me and begging for money and that he was dying of starvation.
    20. I said, “Is it because I have formed the habit of sending money to you every month? Is that why you now call My number at will to tell Me that you are hungry or that you are sick and this and that? Are you the only inmate there? If you know what they are doing to survive, join them. That is the lesson you will learn. If I continue to give you money to live exotic life that place, will you repent?”
    21. He must be beaten by everybody there to bring his own contribution so that he will know that he committed crime.
    22. Just like yesterday when I was talking. Our Deacon, John Okechukwu said that for his son [this FearGod], he was sure that if not that he was with Me here, he would have been in the prison yard.
    23. I told him the crime he is committing. I asked him whether he had ever heard or seen an apprentice under a master running a bank account together with the master? He has his own account he is servicing. The master has his own he is servicing. Yet, he is an apprentice?
    24. The father said it is never heard of. It is unknown in the world. He said if I happened to be ordinary human being and if not for this Faith won’t he be languishing in jail? The father said, “Long ago” and that he cannot support that type of evil.
    25. I said, “Be very careful because if not for one thing, I would have arrested you and your wife before imprisoning him.”
    26. Let us be very very careful. There are many ways we abuse the Brotherhood. Is it not true?
    27. I gave an illustration that when somebody is looking for employment somewhere, if he had served somewhere else, he might go there to the new employer to tell them that his previous employer was paying him one million naira a month just to enable him have a very good background for negotiation.
    28. But he will not know that they will collect his particulars. His CV will include everything and the place[s] he had served. While they will give him appointment under probation, they will forward a letter to the last place of employment to know his records.
    29. And employers know themselves. They belong to the Employers Association of Nigeria. All of them belong to NECA. So they will give a full report and everything about that individual secretly under confidential cover.
    30. On receipt of this response, the new employer will be watching him, for they have known him more than he has revealed himself. It is when he clocks one month that he will be summoned to appear before the Director.
    31. That day, he will faint, for everything he did, the Director will be mentioning them one after the other while fixing his eyes into his own eyes.
    32. Oftentimes, they will place police men around. By the time the interview is over, they will whisk him away.
    33. Oftentimes also, it helps in catching one who committed crime in his former place of employment and ran away. In the new place, it will be discovered. The police will come there, and with the help of the new employer, they will get him arrested to go and answer his charges.
    34. What if you tell Me that you are being paid fifteen thousand naira [₦15,000.00] a month, but I collect your payslip and it reads six thousand naira [₦6,000.00]? I have labelled him number one criminal in My employment.
    35. And I began to wonder how many millions that man was controlling who was selling ordinary recharge cards and will pay you fifteen thousand naira [₦15,000.00] a month. And you are two in number inside a village. Who and who are buying it?
    36. And yesterday, the truth came out. Instead of telling Me that you came for money like Bright told Me so as to enable Me give you a reply and then assign duties to you, from where I will be paying you, you hid the truth. And I continued hammering on it.
    37. I thank God for what is happening now. You see this 2025, this square year, oh no! I told you on the first of January, “THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE SON OF MAN. I AM GOING TO SQUARE IT UP THIS YEAR. IT IS VERY CLEAR.
    38. I told this Elijoe’s wicked son, “All of you that are with Me, but who are not measuring up with the Faith, you have something to square up with Me.”
    39. If you do not know what it takes to square up something with a man– a fellow man, go to your dictionaries you will know what it takes to square up something with your fellow man, which means that your cup is full. The cup of the Amorites is full.
    40. …“44Thus, if you are privileged to be that donkey, you have no option than to be totally loyal’. 21Totally loyal. … 22“Remove the spirit of conspiracy. … What? Remove the spirit of conspiracy. … Totally loyal. Remove the spirit of what? CONSPIRACY.
    41. Who preached this Message? A Bishop under anointing. Check the year. [Pastor Chizoba announced the date of the Message. July 19th, 2020] Thank you!
    42. As we near the end of everything, when you conspire against the truth, you have already prepared your grave. Conspire against the truth, you have garnished your grave.
    43. When they conspired against the truth thinking that they were conspiring against a mere man, little did they know that Israel was conspiring against their last hope. They crucified truth publicly. Publicly, truth rose up. Truth resurrected and then it remained under torment till today.
    44. Why are they not having peace? How can you murder the Prince of peace and expect to live in peace? Can it happen? Murder sleep, and you will never sleep all your life. If you kill a man who is asleep, forget about ever sleeping again all your life.
    45. When Caesar and Brutus came together to murder sleep, what happened? Check that Brutus. Did he sleep again? “Even you Brutus.” That was the end of sleep for him.
    46. Today, you have murdered sleep. For that reason, you have denied yourself sleep all the rest of your life here and in eternity. You will remain a fish. Your eyes will remain open.
    47. 22Remove the spirit of conspiracy. Remove the spirit of disobedience and undue stubbornness for that will throw you out of the Kingdom of God.
    48. Repeat it! These things are here.
    49. 20… “[44]Thus, if you are privileged to be that donkey, you have no option than to be totally loyal.”
    50. 22Remove the spirit of conspiracy. Remove the spirit of disobedience and undue stubbornness for that will throw you out of the Kingdom of God. …
    51. 24The great physician had given you all you need that will solve your problem, but you rejected it. Look at Him giving us the medicine to facing temptations by telling us never to allow a wrong desire to get into us.
    52. 25For temptation is simply a trial of my faith. Look at the temptation that was on Paul. It was sickness. God said to him, “My grace is sufficient for you.” So, God decided to leave it there.
    53. 26Ours can be different and when we are in that condition, we will not begin to be annoyed with God. This is what the world does not know because my faith must be tried, your faith must be tried.
    54. That is why, from time to time, God will allow the son of man to be sick even near unto death. He will allow many many things to befall Him. Before your very eyes, He will also rescue Him out so that you will learn your lessons.
    55. If it could be like this to him, being the Almighty, and He succoured all, when it shall be your turn, you will develop Christ-like attitude.
    56. I can never blame God for anything that befalls Me, for if He never approved it, it will never come My way. Anything God never approved for the son of man can never come near Me.
    57. I do not care what it is. More so, when it comes, I will only laugh at it because I know Who permitted it to come. I know that there is a reason for that. When I go to My prayers, I know what I will request from Him. This is true.
    58. When Job saw the whole thing, He laughed. He knew where all the troubles were coming from. And he said that it will be impossible for him to blaspheme God.
    59. When you read the real history of the wife of Job, you will know that Job married a godly woman for a wife. Do not mind what your Bible painted just briefly there.
    60. Go and get the full text of the Testament of Job. The woman that endured all things, the ridicule and everything. She took side with the husband, despising the shame.
    61. A woman that was humiliated by the friends of Job. Some volunteered even to marry her, but she said, “Nay! Nay!!!” At the end of the day, she was exalted, for the LORD first took her away.

    Who will dwell with God in paradise?

    He decided to make us holy in His own eyes without a single fault. In other words, He that will justify you is with you. Once He has justified you, you are justified. That is why He puts it this way: “If the Son shall set you free, you shall be free indeed.” I remembered the prophecy we heard those days, that the Justifier of the Gentiles is on the scene, and the Destroyer of the Gentiles is on the scene also. It is a prophecy. He that will justify the Gentiles is here.

    The protective power of god

    1. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 2 from verse 29.29The Bible said God is at work within you helping you to want to obey Him and then helping you to do what He wants.
    2. Helping you to do what? Helping you to do what He wants you to do. Who is at work in you helping you to obey Him and helping you to do that which God wants?
    3. Is it not wonderful? This was the experience of those who served God. Has He changed today? Is He not your helper? Did He not promise to support you and to help you so that in the end you will know that the LORD is your helper?
    4. You do not fear what any man is proposing or planning to do to you, for he cannot succeed unless God wants him to succeed. True or false? What can you boast of doing? Absolutely nothing.
    5. 30[59]For God is at work within you HELPING YOU WANT TO OBEY HIM,… which means, nobody wanted to obey.” Sure!!!
    6. 31As long as we remained tied there was no way we could obey. …
    7. And will remain valueless and unprofitable. We cannot even realize our worth. All the talents you have cannot be mobilized. You cannot use any. So, they will remain untapped talent.
    8. You must be given opportunity to perform for people to know whether you are growing in the Faith or not. Is it not true?
    9. You do not know the extent you have grown in the Faith until your faith is tried. And your faith cannot be tried until you are exposed to people with diverse faiths. True or false?
    10. Can the person who has not been tried lay claim on victory of trials? Does he know what it is called? The power God gave to you to surmount trials and temptations, is it not displayed only when trials and temptations come?
    11. One who has not fallen sick before, does the person know what it takes to recover from sickness? The healing power of God cannot be made manifest where there is no sick person.
    12. Where dangers are not around the corner, God’s protective powers are not made manifest. It is only when you are in danger that the protective power of God will be made manifest.
    13. Where there is no sick person, there is no healer. Where there is nobody sick, nobody will be a healer.
    14. 31… “WITHOUT GOD RENDERING A HELPING HAND, EVERY HUMAN BEING IS DISOBEDIENT TO GOD. If you believe it, say Amen.”Amen![60]So, if you find yourself obeying, the credit does not go to you.”
    15. It is that grace, not by your might and not by your strength because in you, if you were to be left alone, there is nothing in you that will make you to humble yourself before God. That is why humility is a virtue from God. I say, humility is a virtue from God.
    16. Satan can never be humble. Satan is puffed up with pride. Satan is always exalting itself, trying even to supersede God if it is possible. Is this not what caused the problem from the very beginning? “I will soar above the Most High God. I will compel Him to bow down before Me.”
    17. Just imagine Satan attempting to make the Most High God to bow down His knees before Satan. I thank God for what He is doing.
    18. Do you know that there are too many among you that are wishing God to bow down before them? There are too many among you that are wishing God to bow down before them.
    19. And that is why God decided to bow before them. And they have seen themselves to rise no more. God will bow down before you. Before your eyes, you will see yourself kneeling down, lying flat and never to rise again.
    20. This is because the moment He goes down, you are going down. When He stands up, He will leave you on the ground.
    21. He is the Super magnet that will pull you down there and leave you there. He will abandon you there.
    22. Do you know one thing? If you remain indifferent to the Word of God, He will cause you to forget yourself. Is it not Scriptural?
    23. REFERENCE: The Holy Qur’an – Surah 59:19, Hilali-Khan Translation.19And be not like those who forgot Allah (i.e. became disobedient to Allah) and He caused them to forget their ownselves, (let them to forget to do righteous deeds). Those are the Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
    24. Yusuf Ali Translation. 19And be ye not like those who forgot Allah; and He made them forget their own souls! Such are the rebellious transgressors!
    25. Muhammad Mahmûd Ghâli Translation.19And do not be as (the ones) who forgot Allah, so He caused them to forget their selves; those are they who are the immoral.
    26. God causes a human being to forget himself. You will be living beside yourself. In other words, you have become a hard fellow. When somebody forgets himself, does he remember any of his important responsibilities?
    27. What he remembers are things that are unprofitable, but those things that are important, he will forget all. So the LORD has made that person because if you remember yourself, you will act right.
    28. If you remember who you are, you will act right. Forget who you are and be found in the wrong always. When a man forgets who he is and what he represents, where he finds himself is in the region of the lost. He has died completely.
    29. 36He opposed those wrong things in us and got rid of them. This is why He said, “Simply be in My hand like the clay is in the hand of the Potter.” Sure!!!
    30. 37He came to oppose every of those things inside of us. With those things inside of us, we cannot obey. …
    31. How do you know when God has come to you? If God comes to you according to your nature, the devil has met you in the name of God.
    32. God has never met any man according to his nature. God has always met with anybody He wants to save contrary to the person’s nature.
    33. That is why, when that change takes place, those who knew that person in time past for one thing or the other will be seeing a brand new individual. True or false.
    34. So, when you meet with God, walk with God and no positive change takes place in your life for the better, you never met God. You met a spirit that is like Christ.
    35. it is a sign that you rejected his word. it is a sign that you rejected Him, for he is nothing but his word nobody accepts god’s word and remains the same way he has been. never, never! I say, neVer, never!.
    36. Brethren, do the eyes that beheld a spirit remain the same? That you beheld a spirit with your eyes, ran back home, and your eyes remained the same. It is a lie. It is a lie.
    37. Your eyes must turn red. Foam will be coming out of your mouth and nose. It is a must that people will help in carrying you home.
    38. 37He came to oppose every of those things inside of us. With those things inside of us, we cannot obey. With those things inside of us, we cannot be humble and loyal. Never!!! When you allow Him, He begins to work on you and then you see yourself a different person.
    39. 47[23]He came as a humble Lamb, He came not to have rule but to serve. THUS, WHEN I SAY LET THE SPIRIT THAT WAS IN CHRIST BE IN YOU, I MEAN INDIRECTLY THAT THE SPIRIT OF HUMILITY SHOULD BE IN YOU; THE SPIRIT OF SELFLESS SERVICE SHOULD BE IN YOU.
    40. 48BUT UNFORTUNATELY, I SEE THE SPIRIT OF HAUGHTINESS, OF ARROGANCE, OF PRIDE, OF ENVY, OF JEALOUSY, OF MALICE; OF HATRED, MURDEROUS SPIRIT IN MANY OF YOU.
    41. 49He can never accuse us of what is not there. He sees these things in us. This is why the hour is the hour for the final selection. “[24]YES! MURDEROUS SPIRIT. THE SPIRIT TO KILL A FELLOW HUMAN BEING IS IN MANY OF YOU. THERE ARE MANY WAYS YOU CAN MURDER SOMEBODY. Sure!!!YOU CAN MURDER ONE EVEN WITH THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH. It is incontestable.
    42. 50WHEN THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH WILL DESTROY THE REPUTATION OF AN INDIVIDUAL AND MAKE PEOPLE TO LOOK AT HIM SUSPICIOUSLY, HAVE YOU NOT MURDERED THE PERSON? Completely! YOU HAVE MURDERED THE PERSON.”
    43. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PARADISE? Chapter 3 from verse 7. 7… The Resurrected Body – the Original Body is here with us.8Is your heart right with Him The Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed be His Most Holy Name]? He remains the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
    44. Whether we like it or not. We cannot add and we cannot subtract. I have come to stay. Is he here to do your will? Did you bring Him? Did you send Him? Well, thank God for you.
    45. 11This is why today, we tell the people that if the people on the net worldwide have no argument than to submit themselves, who then are you – a mere local personality – to argue with us? We do not have time for local arguments.
    46. 12For the world knows that Christ has appeared on the scene in human vessel. …
    47. Every Elect is aware. And they know where He is. By prophecy, they have located Him. Otherwise, they would not be calling Him. Some just flashed to know that the number exists.
    48. …That is why they are surging to the net from various countries for the Gospel has gone round the whole countries.
    49. 13Anybody making a noise today is just making a local statement. We do not have time for such because that is only an attempt to distract our attention. Pure truth! So we ignore it.
    50. 1Watch, the triumphant entry to Jerusalem is not a continuous ceremony commanded by God.” … At all!Just like we see them doing today – The Catholics and other denominations. It is not a continuous ceremony. Jesus Igweeee!
    51. 17What was His crime? That He is a man and He made Himself God. Is that not the same crime today? Are the Gentiles any better? No! This is the same statement that is going on. He is a man. He made Himself God. He is God. He never made Himself God. He is God. …
    52. He is what? God. He never made Himself God. Does it agree with the findings? I mean, the inferences and the conclusion of the research about the son of man? He is God Himself. Not ordinary one.
    53. The research said that He is the LORD God Almighty. He is the Most High, but He is hidden in the human flesh. In simplicity, it is likely the world will miss Him again. In simplicity, it is likely the world will miss Him again.
    54. Today, have they not missed Him? Go to the Message, HOW PEOPLE MISS GOD IN ALL THE AGES, handled in 2002. Did I not know that they will miss Him? Did I come to show Myself to the world?
    55. … He is God who has stepped down in human flesh to be with His family.23And that human being is no other person but the Son of Man. The Ark is Christ, the Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed be His Most Holy Name].
    56. If He is not a man, why is He demanding a permanent eternal home upon the earth? Did it start with your own day? It has been like that. 

    You do not know that I am your Justifier. You also do not know that I am He that will condemn you. If I set you free, you are free. Anywhere you like go. If the Son of Man sets you free, you shall be free indeed. There is nobody; There is no Angel, no matter where the person is coming from, that will condemn you. That is why I said [that] if I tell you to do something, do it because I said you should do it. Quote Me; “I did it in the Authority of the Son of Man.” Let the heavens challenge your action. Bring it before Me. If I say, “Do not try it.” Stop there. Do not move an inch. He that sent Me is still with Me. He has never left Me one bit.

    REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE (1)

    1. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 3 from verse 26.26We want to see another hypocrite which is Lot’s wife. That is why the Scripture said, “Beware of Lot’s wife.” It is just a verse – a reference. Just that statement, “Remember Lot’s Wife.” KJV. Fullstop!
    2. Remember Lot’s wife. And that is the whole verse. You can type in the whole Scriptures in that place.
    3. Remember Lot’s wife, which means that somebody somewhere or many people somewhere might reproduce that same habit. They might end it having the same fate with Lot’s wife.
    4. Go back to the beginning. What happened to Lot’s wife. How did Lot’s wife start her journey with the husband and with the family that culminated into the visitation of the angels sent by God?
    5. Who accommodated them in their house? Was it not Lot and the wife? Who prepared that food they ate?
    6. Were they not there when the community came to force the door open? Did they not see the miracle that took place where those outside [the enemies] were made to be blind? Did they not witness all?
    7. Did God not help them out of that city? When they delayed, did God not lead them by the hand and dragged them outside which made the woman to die outside the city and not inside the city?
    8. Tell Me if there was any help God never rendered through those angels to facilitate their escape, but the woman was unyielding. The woman was very hard-hearted and also unyielding.
    9. If the man had remained waiting for that woman, even when they had been dragged outside, do you not know what would have happened?
    10. Can you blame the daughters? This is because all of them were grown-ups. They saw what took place and they also heard from the mouths of the angels. They ran after their father without looking back.
    11. Nobody knew that the woman was not following until they got to the safety land. Until they got to the safety land, they never knew that the woman was not following.
    12. God knew that she would not be there with them. For that reason, He warned them to run and not look back. What if the man or the daughters had looked back? They would have seen the useless woman standing where she was also dragged out.
    13. There are people like that. You see them in the Fellowship, but their heart has never shifted from what it was from the very beginning. Do not look at the appearances of people that come to Fellowship. It might be deceitful.
    14. When the heart is not willing to make a move, whatever movement the body is making is fake. It is counterfeit. No movement has taken place in a man– no change has taken place until the heart has changed.
    15. Any change without the heart changing is artificial. I said, “It is artificial.” It is deceitful. It is a painted-up change. Do we have people that change that way? They look like the children of God but inwardly, they are grievous wolves.
    16. When they come to Fellowship, you think they are believers. You call them sons and daughters of God, but when you get home, you see another set of human beings. You see the man and woman living in hell.
    17. Can you imagine someone who said that she is a wife to a man threatening the husband that if he does not do this and that at her command, she will make the house a living hell. And that if the husband likes, he should go and call the son of man.
    18. Many have heard many things with their ears, both male and female alike. A man is under threat by the wife and the wife is under threat by the husband. Who then will serve God’s interest? The woman is threatening hell and the man is also threatening hell. Are they not living in hell?
    19. Do you know that when you are having your joy in the flesh because you are in the Fellowship, singing praises and doing whatever you like, when you know that the life of Christ is yet to manifest in your life, whatever joy you think you are having means living in a fool’s paradise. You are living in a fool’s paradise.
    20. You are living in hell thinking you are living in heaven because nobody talks to you again. You have been permitted to do as you wish.
    21. An Igbo adage says that anyone who is allowed to eat the food with the encouragement to finish all where there are many people who are also hungry, that food is not a good food.
    22. But the foolish person will be jumping and down, thinking that he is loved so much, I was told to eat it alone and not give to any body, you have become Elijoe’s son. Is that food they gave to you a good one?
    23. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu: This also shows us that children always stays where their mother is, but when it comes to the things of God, everybody takes his or her own side. Sure!!!
    24. They [the daughters of Lot] did not say they will want to take sides with their mother. Not at all! They left the mother and everyone was running for her own dear life.
    25. They were not obeying their father. They were not obeying anybody. They were obeying the Messengers, for they saw what happened. And it happened in their own house, not another man’s house. They could tell the story. So, they were not looking at their father or mother. Everybody on his or her own.
    26. Remember they never carried a pin. Nobody left with a pin. Please wait let me go and carry my school dress and my school bag. It was not there. It is the woman that was looking for food flask, take-away plates and the food she will share, not knowing where she is running to. And this God that commanded them to leave never made a provision for them.
    27. See what I love this God for. Before God will send Me to a desert, He has prepared somebody who will feed Me there. He had already prepared a table before Me in the presence of My enemies, for he will never allow My enemies to gloat over Me.
    28. When Elijah was running and God said, “Stay under that tree and the have a little rest”, there he slept. He was running because a woman called Jezebel was pursuing Him with all she gathered to get rid of a man of God for telling them the truth. She took it upon herself to kill Elijah.
    29. While Elijah was running for his life, he got under an oak tree to rest. There he slept. While He was sleeping, the hand of a man [not a woman] tapped him on his shoulder.
    30. He got up and saw jollof rice that was very hot. The Voice commanded Elijah, “I know you are weak and tired. Arise and eat, for the journey you are embarking on is still too far.”
    31. Elijah looked at the man and glorified God, for that was God Himself. He called that man the angel of God, but that was God. He ate, drank his water, but a little while, he slept again.
    32. Some hours later, the same angel appeared carrying another food. Elijah said he ate before but the angel countered him and said, “Eat and finish it.” Elijah said, “Finish this thing?” The angel said, “Yes! The journey is still far.” He watched as Elijah finished the second plate, and he went away.
    33. Few minutes later, he came back the third time with another plate of food. Elijah said, “Nay! The food is too much.” The angel hushed him and said, “Let Me not hear one word.”
    34. Elijah looked at the whole thing. Elijah never asked him who he was or what his name was and things like that, for he had already known.
    35. All I am trying to say is that while he was on that journey, the LORD God Almighty was with him and had already provided all that he needed to escape and He gave him the third plate.
    36. The LORD said, “Now, you have gathered enough strength for that journey.” And then He vanished before his eyes. Elijah knew that the angel of the LORD took care of him.
    37. The LORD will never send you to any journey and allow you to go alone. William Braham said, “When God sends a man, He backs him up.” By the time you get to that place you are going to, you see Him sitting down there. I know God for that one.
    38. All you will pass through along that way, He knows all. And when you will be struggling on that way, He will be seeing you.
    39. Whether you are driving or you are trekking, He will be seeing you. All your troubles, He is seeing all. He knows that you passed through them, and He will arrive there.
    40. When Abraham left, did God tell him where to stay? He left from Babylon to that city where God said he should go to receive blessings. Did God tell Him to go to anybody’s house? All he needed, the LORD provided.
    41. That is why we sing it in our song, “Great is Thy faithfulness. Great is Thy faithfulness. O LORD my father. There is no shadow of turning with Thee. Thou changeth not. Thy compassion, they fail not. As Thou hath been Thou forever will be.
    42. Great is Thy faithfulness. Great is Thy faithfulness. Morning by morning, new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hands hath provided. Great is Thy faithfulness LORD unto me.”
    43. All you needed. All you need. If He is not the Provider, will you be the provider? He that has provided water in the desert, tell Me what He cannot provide. There is nothing that is useful and beneficial to your trip which God cannot supply.
    44. Our problem is that we are unfaithful to God. Our infidelity towards God is what is hindering our success. If we are transparent to God as He is transparent to us, I bet you, nobody will talk. We would not be in this Fellowship till now.
    45. You will only gather here and God will appear and tell you what to do and go away, telling you to go and have your rest.
    46. 30Let us go to the Message, Remember Lot’s Wife,Page 4 verse 1. “1I am asking you. What is the hope of the hypocrite? What is the hope of the hypocrite? [Job 27:8] One that says one thing and does another.
    47. 31One that is in our midst, but living a life contrary to our Message. One that receives the truth but lives the life of falsehood. Deliberately! One whose life is full of craftiness and deceit. What is his hope?.”
    48. 32You had the privilege of God selecting you, “Go and loose that ass, tell the owner the Master has need of it.” It was a command. He was not begging. He just loosened you.
    49. Look at that great privilege. Now, instead of making sure that your life agrees with the message, you now want the message to agree with your life.
    50. 33You are not coming to impose your life on the message, but for the message to oppose every wrong thing in you. …
    51. But you want the Message to bend to your own side. Instead of yielding to God, you want God to yield to you. Who has ever done that with success? Nobody.
    52. … God said that anyone that is in our midst, living contrary to our teaching is a hypocrite. And the message says that God will expose all hypocrites.
    53. 42Have you seen that they were all complete? That is why it is a dangerous thing. God told us that the Ark is locked, but the window is open. We do not want to mention names but what we heard God say to the family of Ojiakor frightened me.
    54. This is 2020. This is 2020. Why not look up and look down? As at 2020, the LORD had spoken concerning that family. What is happening today? You see that the Word that goes out of the mouth of God can never come back to Him void. The purpose for which the Word was spoken must come to pass.
    55. 43We must come to that point of knowing that this God we talk about is not a respecter of persons. … He has no preference.…He does not look at anybody’s face. As for His Word, once He has spoken it, He has spoken it. What He is watching is how obedient you are to His Word.
    56. 44What happened to Lot’s wife here? We will see it, as we read from the Message, Remember Lot’s Wife, Page 16:36 “36They left as two. They ended as one.”
    57. They left as two, but they ended as one. Okay o. One was taken, the other left along the way. Would it not be better that she said no from the very beginning than to give the impression that she believed?
    58. 45You see? Between husband and wife, one was taken, and one was left. Who left one? Is it God? No! She is the one that refused. This is not the issue of one was taken, and one was left by God. No! He has already given the two the instruction to go but she refused.
    59. Where? In her house. In her house, she was following carnally, and the heart has already drawn back. She had already returned to her former association in her hearts.

    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

    REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE (2)

    1. In the wilderness, with the heart, the people went back to Egypt, but the people’s flesh was there with Moses. Did it augur well with them? They perished. That is why the Bible said, “Woe is the backslidden in the heart.” Backsliding takes place in the heart.
    2. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 3 from verse 49.49[38]ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME? ANY WOMAN THAT SEES HERSELF AS A DAGON– ANY WOMAN WHOSE NAME IS DAGON, COUNTERFEIT CAN NEVER SMELL PARADISE. Sure!!!
    3. 50 [39]Look at Sarah. The wife of Abraham. She was not a counterfeit. … She was not a Dagon. She was not a Dinah.
    4. …Look at Elizabeth, the wife of Zachariah. She was not a Jezebel who went after the lives of all the Prophets of God. After killing Naboth because of his father’s vineyeard, she went further to lay her hand on all the Prophets of God.
    5. … Let me pick only but these two. She was not a counterfeit. 40But Moses’ wife was a counterfeit.
    6. Zipporah, the wife of Moses was considered, but not on her merit. She was considered on the merit of her husband and Moses in-laws who assisted him in the wilderness.
    7. But concerning Zipporah, she was a renegade. She was given a place alongside with the Egyptians who were faithful to their son in-law. And then, they were renamed the Rechabites.
    8. That was how she entered with the two sons of Moses while Moses is still waiting till today, for Moses will never smell Canaan, but will only smell Paradise. In the day the Gentiles will come in, Moses will come in.
    9. Concerning Canaan, Moses never stepped his feet into Canaan. He ended before Jordan, and was buried before Jordan.
    10. 60What happened in the days of Lot is happening now. [53]LOT’S WIFE MUST APPEAR. IT IS A SPIRIT. IT MUST APPEAR. IT MUST MANIFEST. …
    11. Lot’s wife must appear. Did He mention the name of the person? Do not look for one person. Spirit can anoint over one million persons in one day and at the same time.
    12. If you have that spirit of Lot’s wife, whose name was not mentioned except in THE WRITINGS OF ABRAHAM. If you have that spirit, you will know. If you have that spirit, you will know, which means that that same fate awaits you.
    13. REFERENCE: THE WRITINGS OF ABRAHAM From the papyri found in Egypt 1831 and translated by John Bryant, PART 3, Chapter 120 verses 2-5. 2And while they were preparing to depart, Lot’s heart being full of sorrow at leaving his daughters and his daughters’ children to be destroyed, the men of God took him by the hand with his wives and his daughters, for the Lord had mercy upon Lot because of his integrity, because he had not bowed down unto false gods nor entered into the abominations of Sodom.
    14. 3And Lot thought to dwell in Zoar; wherefore, he hastened there, but his wife Ado turned back unto the city of Sodom. 4Ado was the daughter of Eli, the son of Eliezer, which Eli had accompanied Lot to Sodom.
    15. 5And Ado thought upon her parents and her daughters who remained in the city, her heart was pained within her and she turned back unto them and was lost.
    16. When your husband says that you are leaving in the morning by 5o’clock, you say amen with him, but by 7o’clock, you have not taken your bath. By 8o’clock, you will ask him whether the world is coming to an end. You will continue walking up and down until he will leave you behind.
    17. Was it not the spirit of Saphirra? Lot’s wife spirit. Indifference to the instructions of the husband. She made it a habit that she could not even differentiate between the words of the husband from the Word of God.
    18. If you have formed the habit of disobeying your husband or you and your wife disobeying each other, take note. The tendency is there that you will not understand when you are saying no to instructions from God. You will not know when you are disobeying, disrespecting a direct Message from God which is intended to lead you to escape from death.
    19. This one will say, “I think it is my wife.” The other one will say, “I think it is my husband. That is how he normally talks.” He will say okay, thank you.
    20. By the time you will iron it out among yourselves, it will be all over. The Saints are gone. The Saints are completely gone. By gone, I mean transformed – translated. You will be trailing behind, crying wolf. Then you will beat your chest with regrets.
    21. Do you not know that a child who is disobedient to his parents does not respect elders outside. A woman who considers her husband worthless, does she respect any other man?
    22. So it is with a man who considers his wife worthless. Can he find any other woman worthy? Before you say anything, he will tell you to get out of his way and that he has somebody like you at home.
    23. 67 [9]They (think to) deceive Allah and those who believe, while they only deceive themselves, and perceive (it) not. [10]In their hearts is a disease (of doubt and hypocrisy) and Allah has increased their disease.
    24. 68A painful torment is theirs because they used to tell lies.” God is against hypocrisy. …
    25. He called it a disease. A disease! I call it incurable disease. Very infectious. That is why you dare not mingle with such people. They will infect you. They must infect you and teach you wrong ways of life which you never imagined to live.
    26. 76You heard me shouting weeding time, weeding time; I am about to weed out all unprofitable Ministers from this Faith.”
    27. 77This is what He said long time ago. This message was Preached on the 22nd and 29th of August, 2010. Since then this prophecy went forth.
    28. In 2010, God said He was going to weed out all unprofitable Ministers. Did it fulfill that same day? But did it come to pass? Fear and respect God.
    29. He gave you a Message, BE MINDFUL OF THE WORD OF GOD THAT HAS ROARED ON YOU. You are not struggling or dragging anything with God. He seeth afar off. He knows where you are going to have difficulties, and he warns you ahead of time. Neglect that warning and reap the reward immediately.
    30. Check all of them He weeded. Can they find their feet in this Faith again? Never! I say, never! Tell Me anybody that was benched and he rose up again.
    31. If you are wise and intelligent, strive that you will never be benched for one day.
    32. What of those that benched themselves, waiting for God to come and beg them to come back? Did He recognize them? He feigned ignorance of them. Did their exit make any impact? The answer is no. Now, they have been completely forgotten.
    33. 79You heard me shouting weeding time, weeding time; I am about to weed out all unprofitable ministers from this Faith. I am about weeding out all causes of disobedience in this Faith.
    34. I want to narrow down the totality of this Ministry to the size God said it should. To what? To the size God said it should be. Thank you!
    35. Do you know the size? How many know the size here? He that received that instruction, does He not know the size? Have you not been referred to as the “Little Flock”, “Handpicked minority” all the while?
    36. 80 [41]I have been over compassionate to many. I am about to weed families – father, mother and children – out of this Faith so that this Bride of Christ will produce what God intended to. Mixed-multitude is making My work very difficult, and it is delaying the journey more than necessary. I fear God.
    37. 81When an important Message is preached, they (strangers) will bring in the traditions and customs of their forefathers that contradict the truth, which we received from God.” True or false?
    38. Do you not know them? The remnants are still around you. The remnants are still around you.
    39. 82[47]I told you I am initiating a work. When I shall come to an end, all eyes will see. Every tongue will say, “Is this the reason God took us back?”
    40. 83Back to where? Back to our homes! Is this the reason why He took us back to our homes? “47I told you I am initiating a work, when I shall come to an end, all eyes will see, every tongue will say, “Is this the reason God took us back? No wonder.” … 2010!
    41. Brethren, is it not a wonder? By 2010, God was telling you what will happen in the future. Has it not come to pass? If you are numbered among those who are saying it here now, today will be the best day in this year 2025.
    42. So, God has been weeding out too many families including their children and placed them somewhere. They are still alive. He weeded out Ministers – unprofitable ones, and placed them somewhere.
    43. And He handpicked only the size at His command. The much He can nurture. And caused them to produce the fruit of this particular Faith of Christ.
    44. Did I not tell you from the beginning that God is not interested in a large congregation that does not obey Him?
    45. But He takes delight in a small congregation made up of one or two or three or four persons that entered into an everlasting covenant with God to do His will at all times.
    46. I am not sent to come and raise the world for Christ. I am not sent to come and raise majority for Christ. I am sent to the despised. The handpicked minority. The lost sheep of Israel.
    47. Did I hide this truth from you? Now, you see them manifesting, believe that the same Person said that whether you like it or not, Lot’s wife must manifest. And remember, it is a spirit. I have seen too many of them already.
    48. I want to tell you something I have noticed. Inasmuch as I love family unity, do you know that family unity is not measured by a man carrying his wife in front of his car?
    49. It is never measured by the man holding the hand of his wife wherever he goes or the wife holding the man’s waist wherever the man goes. Do you know that it has nothing to do with family unity? Do you know that it has nothing to do with family love.
    50. That husband and wife are bathing together, eating together on the same table has nothing to do with family unity. It has nothing to do with family love.
    51. What then makes for family unity or family love? If you go to the book of Joshua, “Choose for yourself the God you will worship this day. As for Me and My family, we have chosen to worship Yahweh, ADONAI, the God that secured our land. He will remain our God here and even in the hereafter.”
    52. Every family chose the God they will worship. Joshua and family entered into a consecration with God and made their own choice. There, they remained till today.
    53. Hence, when the devil came to accuse Joshua, did he succeed? I reject all your accusations, for He [God] saw Joshua and the way he was handling the affairs of his family.
    54. I do not know what else to say. The same way, Noah handled his family, and it became the only righteous family in the world that was not corrupt. Only Noah and his family did God see holding on the Word of the hour.
    55. The same way, God saw between Zachariah and Elizabeth. True or false? But do you know that there was no family unity between Mary [the mother of Jesus] and Joseph?
    56. Please, when you are following Me, be wise, but do not be wise in your own conceit. Do not punctuate My Words. Do not try to interpret. Take My Word the way I have spoken it.
    57. This issue of your wife wrapping her hand around your waist never started with you. Holding your hands and anywhere you are she will be there and so on may be destructive.
    58. It may not help you even in achieving your purpose in the Faith of Christ. It may even hinder you, hinder your wife and hinder your children.
    59. Apostle Ojiakor is a living example till today. I decried it right from Amazu Oil together with Bishop Moses who inherited it from Apostle Ojiakor.
    60. Look at the Message of 2020 where the Bishop, Joe Ukpong revisited and remembered it. And today, who is suffering? Am I making sense? Where is that unity? Where is that love?
    61. When a woman destroys the Ministry of a man, she gathers all her strength around the children to bury that man spiritually. When the man will be talking, the woman will be opposing. Even to feed the man becomes a problem.
    62. He becomes a stranger in his own house because he cannot say praise the LORD there. Even while trying to encourage them with the Word of God, some will be laughing at him.
    63. Some may even walk away. he has become a laughing stock, for they have crippled him. Then that woman that held him on the waist will rear up her head fully.

    On this note, I declare all the Elects that have accepted this Message free; free from condemnation, free from guilt, completely free. For if THE SON OF MAN shall set you free, you shall be free indeed. You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

    AS WE WAIT AT THE GATE OF PARADISE VOL 2; preached on Sunday 3rd April, 2011 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 135 vs. 69

    ARE YOU CONVINCED?

    1. Do not forget the dream he had [I mean Apostle Luke Ojiakor] where two of them [himself and his wife] were walking on the narrow path and the many obstacles they saw. But they got to a point where it was very very delicate.
    2. Remember, while they were walking, the wife could not walk. She was marking time. From time to time, he will go back to carry her.
    3. So the trouble continued on that lonely path. They got to a point that was very dangerous where they needed to run to avert the danger. Immediately he wanted to run, the wife stretched her hands and gripped him on his waist.
    4. He could no longer run. The wife could not run. They were trapped there. So they remained trapped. And his eyes opened.
    5. When it was brought to Me, you heard My statement, “If a Brother somewhere else had this dream, he would have remained your enemy till eternity, and the enemy of your family. It just proved that God Himself revealed this to you. Flesh and blood never revealed it to you, but the Almighty God.”
    6. Brethren, has it not come to pass? Be very careful in this Faith, you handpicked minority. Count not on your numerical strength. Count on your spiritual strength.
    7. I say that the numerical strength of any gathering means nothing to God. It is the spiritual strength that God is interested in.
    8. In the same way, your height is not measured by your stature in the sight of God. it is measured by the level of Faith your belief in the Word of God has produced in you.
    9. Your level of Faith has grown above all doubt, grown above all deceit, all hypocrisies. Your level of Faith has grown above destruction in the end.
    10. Which means that the level of your faith has conquered all fears in you. You could say like others, “There is no iota of fear or doubt in Me as to whether I am in the number that will be saved by grace or not, for by the grace of God already, which I am enjoying, I have eternal life.
    11. This is because he that believeth now and remains in obedience, now you are alive, you possess eternal life, not because the Scriptures said so. I am here. It is because you have seen the vindication.
    12. And in you, there is nothing suggesting to you that you could draw back tomorrow, for there is nothing you will come into contact with that is not common with all men. It cannot be a strange experience.
    13. And whatever that thing might be, you know where to place it. It is coming to truncate my faith from Christ. If your faith is from Christ, where will you go to? Brethren, where else will one go to whose faith is from Christ?
    14. This is because we have traced Christ Who is in our midst from the time when the world was without form. We have been tracing him down to this day, and our conclusion is as good as our faith. True or false?
    15. Our conclusion, our finding is as good as our faith. Is anybody in doubt? We traced from the first man Adam. We traced it all these years, using every available record and finding till we came to where we are now.
    16. And what is our conclusion? We made no mistakes identifying with Him. The divine Personality we are having dealings with is indeed divinely oriented. He is Himself the Divinity. His wife pre-existed. He also pre-existed.
    17. He holds the Key of Paradise. He has made eternal life, entry into Paradise a possibility. He indeed is the end of the law and also of the Prophet.
    18. Hence, He has become our Saviour and our Redeemer. He is our Justifier. He is the One that will condemn us. He is the One that will mark us good or bad, for the totality of judgment and the means of judging, everything, both the living and the dead. have all been committed into His hands, for the son of man is connected to the judgment of the last day.
    19. We have seen Him wearing the Cloud. Wherever He goes, He goes with the Cloud. He is the Cloud Man. He is “HE” we have been expecting all these years. At last, when we never sought Him, He sought us, and He found us.
    20. Only the son of man will tell you how many are remaining in His hands for eternal life.
    21. Note that there are so many reasons why people are embracing the son of man, but not for eternal life. They are there. If I tell you that I do not have up to 1% of the whole world, do not doubt Me.
    22. Even those that are in the website and everywhere, including the population of the whole world, I do not have up to 1% that have believed in Me for eternal life.
    23. You may think I am crazy. I am not crazy. I know the population of the whole world. I know the percentage of those that are following Me.
    24. There are many reasons why people follow a man. These celebrities have followers. There are many reasons why people follow them. Is it not true?
    25. There are many reasons why people are following president Tinubu. Do you know that among them are people that are trying to oust him from office. To God be the glory.
    26. I know those that belong to Me, and they know they really belong to Me. Nothing in this life nor in the hereafter will separate them from the son of man. Is it not scriptural?
    27. All those the Father has given to Me, they must surely come to Me. and I must give them eternal life, for the Father that has given them to Me is mightier than any force, any being, any trial and any temptation.
    28. He has the power to sustain them in My hands. They will never for one day break away, for the force that is holding them is mightier and stronger than them.
    29. The hand that is upholding them is by far greater than the seducing spirit. So, they can never be seduced out of My hands. Impossible! I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. But, is it so in the Scriptures?
    30. But there are some that saw Me and then came. Because they saw others running after Me, they joined. Do you not know that it is not all that follow the masquerade are the real owners of the masquerade?
    31. Any village the masquerade passes, people will troupe after the masquerade, with some even carrying cane in the hands, and even flogging people more than the people that presented the masquerade.
    32. The Comforter, Page 27 verse 47.
    33. When was that Message [THE COMFORTER] preached? 29TH August, 2010. Brethren, take note. That August is the Family month. August Visitor. Am I making sense? We celebrate August in My Family. It holds good tidings for us.
    34. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 3 from verse 82.82Page 27:47, “47I told you I am initiating a work, when I shall come to an end, all eyes will see, every tongue will say, “Is this the reason God took us back?”
    35. As at 2010, have we gone home? Were we not still in the central Fellowship? But God had already told us ahead of time from 1993, “This Faith must come to a point when we shall be asked to go home. Then, we shall know who is who.”
    36. REFERENCE:JERUSALEM TO JERICHO; Preached on Tuesday 9th March 1993 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 68 vs. 88. 88He is here; I owe no man no apology for saying the truth. I know I am dying for the Truth. Why must I be afraid? I better not. I know, one day, this place must be closed, we will scatter, every man to his home, every woman to her village. Then we will know whether you are godly or not.
    37. 83… No wonder! Begin to tighten up your belts very well.”84…We are not told to relax. As a football team, injury time does not call for relaxation. The best form of defence is attack.
    38. NUGGET:I KNOW I AM YOUR KINSMAN REDEEMER, BUT HOW MANY BELIEVE IN ME TO THE SAVING OF THEIR SOULS?
    39. You can believe in Me as your Brother. You can believe in Me as an Apostle. You can believe in Me as a Son of God, but to believe Me as the Elohim, the Saviour, the Redeemer, the all and all, in whom dwelleth the fullness of the God head bodily, this is only by divine revelation. Only those that are given to believe this can believe it.
    40. 2010! By 2010, we were only holding the Cloud. We have not even photographed that Godhead. Neither have we photographed the Original Body, but look at God highlighting many ways you can know Him without knowing the real Being.
    41. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PARADISE, Chapter 4 from verse 1. … “63I AM HERE. I AM NOT GOING BACK AGAIN. I MUST SEE THE END OF EVERYTHING. … I have come to stay. So, by that time, the LORD has come already. He has arrived to live with us and among us. Is it not true?
    42. Remember, what we are reading is what others are reading, but our own reading differs from their own because He that makes a total difference is in our midst. So you are always ahead of others.
    43. … SO, IF YOU ARE FILING BEHIND ME AND I AM QUERYING YOU, IT THEN MEANS YOU WOULD NOT GET MY SALVATION.”
    44. Yes! If you are filing behind Me, and I am querying you, it goes to show that you will not obtain My salvation. If I am querying you, you have a questionable character before Me– I am looking at you suspiciously as a traitor or as a trucebreaker, forget about My salvation.
    45. 3[64]IS THERE ANYBODY WHO WAS QUERIED BY MOSES THATEVERGOTMOSES’ SALVATION? IS THERE ANYBODY WHO WAS QUERIED BY JOSHUA THAT EVERGOT JOSHUA’S SALVATION?
    46. All of you, why not give a reply? The reader, give a reply. You are involved.
    47. 4 [65]Did Achan get it? Even with the fact that He was a centurion. Rather, Joshua used a centurion, [a Brigadier-General] and his family as an example that Allah is no respecter of persons. That was what He did’.
    48. 5Did He not finish them? He did! They were not spared. The Word said, “Let nobody tamper with the Babylonian garment, and he took it, brought it home.” His wife was aware of it. The children were aware of it. They kept quiet. God wiped them.
    49. They conspired against the truth. The wife was the one that hid it under her bed, for it was good for use in decorating their house. The children were jubilating, “Daddy came back from the warfront with too many exploits.”
    50. 66He started with his second in command, who he executed along with his family and every living thing that belonged to Achan, only to make the Word of Allah stand sure.” Sure!!!
    51. 6IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO LOOSE YOUR LIFE FOR THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST, YOU ARE NOT WORTHY OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Period!
    52. 7 [3]IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO FORSAKE FATHER, FORSAKE MOTHER, FORSAKE EVEN YOUR LIFE AND COUNT IT AS NOTHING, YOU ARE NOT A CANDIDATE IN PARADISE.” Heaven knows that to be true.
    53. 15“If you want to be a resident of hell fire, there is no problem about that.” You are the one making the choice. “…but make sure that you do not drag others there. 
    54. 2226And as soon as God’s Ark of Covenant left the house of Eli, salvation also left that house [Ichabod!] because of the sin of a woman and her children who were taking things casually, who were never serious, and who were make-ups.”
    55. 29REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE, Page43:40. “40ANYBODY WHO IS COMMITTING INIQUITY AND LIVING IN DISOBEDIENCE, GOD IS SEEING IT AS A DELIBERATE ACT. YOU ARE DOING IT WILLFULLY. YOU WILL NOT SAY THAT YOU ARE IGNORANT OF THE TRUTH.” Is it a lie Brethren? Pure truth!
    56. 33REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE, Page 45:44. “44WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE AND WHEREVER YOU BELONG MUST MANIFEST IN YOUR CHARACTER.” … It does what? They must manifest in your character.

    …… if God never veiled Himself in a human being, all of you will remain in bondage even till today. Is it a lie? You see why you are different people all together. When you despise this Faith, you are hating your life. If the Son of Man shall set you free, ye shall be free indeed. God must become the Son ofMan to set you free. That is God wearing a Badger skin. He comes in likeness of Man.

    IF YOU BELIEVE IN ALLAH, WALK ALONE

    1. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong. NUGGET before Chapter 5: …ALL I NEED IN MY LIFE IS CHRIST. CHRIST IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME. HOW MANY WILL LIKE TO HEAR FROM ME? I AM BODILY PRESENT AND ALSO SPIRITUALLY.
    2. WHATEVER HEAVEN IS MADE UP OF IS HERE. … Do you believe that? Who can believe your report?
    3. THE POWER UPHOLDING THE UNIVERSE IS HERE. WHATEVER YOU THINK GOD IS MADE UP OF IS HERE. …
    4. Wait! If God wants to deceive a people, so you are the people God will deceive and begin to jump up, “I have deceived mighty people.” So, you are the people.
    5. If you do not think about this Faith in your own private closet, I am telling you, your falling away is imminent.You should set out time and think very well about this Faith you are in.
    6. Go and think about how you came into this Faith and all your experiences in time past when you were in other religious groups.
    7. If you cannot make comparisons and arrive at your own conclusion about this Faith, your falling away is completely imminent. You are on the brink of falling away.
    8. You might be saying what others are saying without conviction. What I am telling you is happening already.
    9. Are you surprised at how many thousands that were milling around Him? And at the end of the day, what was left was eleven. Eleven!
    10. Look at all He said for three and half [3½] years. He was only able to get 120 throughout the whole world. Out of the 120, they were without conviction. Along the way, they all departed and went back to their old association. How many were left behind? Only five!
    11. When you hear that many are called, but few are chosen, thank you for that. Be sure and certain that you are in the number that is chosen by election of grace whom the devil cannot seduce away with his seducing sPirit that is at work among the children of disobedience.
    12. If you are mingling with the disobedient ones, already, you are out of the Faith. You are mingling with somebody you cannot convert, for the person has been living in disobedience over the years. He or she is coming to transfer that disobedience to you.
    13. Where we are does not require somebody holding your hand as far as this Faith is concerned. Live me, and let Me walk alone. Do not hold my hand. Continue in your own way. I am following My track.
    14. Whoever that holds you with his own hand can easily divert you to his own track. What I am telling you is the truth. The only way out of this trouble right now is to walk alone.
    15. Were we commanded to walk alone? By who? By Allah! If you want to make your journey easier and safe, walk alone.
    16. But when you want to make your journey very difficult and arrive at your destination very very late, walk in a company.
    17. Does the person who is running an errand alone have any distraction? If he likes, he can run. If he likes he will walk. Where he is going is very important to him.
    18. Whenever you are in the company of two or three, the journey will be that of discussion. If any of you decides to urinate, the rest will wait for him. If another says he saw somebody and he wants to salute his mother’s relation, you will all wait for the person. Till eternity, you will not get to your destination.
    19. NUGGET:…THE POWER UPHOLDING THE UNIVERSE IS HERE. WHATEVER YOU THINK GOD IS MADE UP OF IS HERE. THE DEITY IS HERE. YET, MANY DO NOT KNOW. … True or false?
    20. Have you proved it by yourself that this knowledge you have– supernatural knowledge you have is not a common knowledge? It is not a common experience that you are having.
    21. It may be common in your eyes, but I am not common to God. God has always been appearing in a very simple way to the point that people will even slap him and spit on his face, but He will look at the man and turn away His eyes as if nothing happened, but He has recorded something.

    27. … THE DEITY IS HERE. YET, MANY DO NOT KNOW. IF YOU LIKE BELIEVE. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE, THROW IT AWAY. …
    28. This statement, is it beckoning you to believe? Can you see the statement? Is it persuading anybody? It is thrown open. Believe it if you can. Is it forcing you?
    29. Do you know that nothing alters truth. Your belief or unbelief cannot alter truth. Truth is here.
    30. … IF YOU LIKE BELIEVE. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE, THROW IT AWAY.BUT I AM SURE AND CERTAIN THAT HE THAT CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH IS HERE, THOUGH YOU MAY NOT KNOW HIM. HE IS HERE PHYSICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY.
    31. Is there any statement stronger than this? How can a Man make this type of statement if He is not sure. Then if I am not sure, why did I show you Myself when I invited you? All of you, come with your camera and so on, for that is the only way you can see it.
    32. But remember you were amazed that He that was in the pulpit, talking and commanding, was at the same time, walking in your midst in the Fellowship, pulling people by the waist and everywhere. Yet, in the pulpit, He was standing, which made Kenneth Umeh to open his eyes. He saw that the man was still there, but look at the footprint everywhere in the Fellowship.
    33. Some [who witnessed this] have died, but a good number of us are still alive till today to tell the story. Because we were astonished, He said, “Come the following week. Come with your cameras. Come! Bring the camera men and let them be there. And you will see the Personality that moved in your midst, with whom you have been having dealings with over these years to banish unbelief.” Yet, did it banish it?
    34. The more I stay among you, your unbelief will keep on increasing because you have known beyond God to the point that you know what God can do and what God cannot do.
    35. Tell Me that which God cannot do. Is there anything impossible for God to do? Are you saying it because the Bible said so? Have you proved it of your own?
    36. He that holds life and death– He holds life. He holds death. If He wants you to die, you will die. If He wants you to live, you will live. He maketh war. He makes peace. And there can never be evil anywhere and He has never done it. Tell Me what He cannot do.
    37. If He wants to kill, He does not recognize whether you are young or old. He does not even consider the ones that are in the womb.
    38. See what He is doing in Israel. Is He considering anybody? Everybody is like chaff before Him. Everybody is like chaff before Him.
    39. … THE TOTALITY OF WHAT GOD IS ALL ABOUT IS HERE. … The Source of all those researches made in the early 50s. Am I making sense at all? Researches by Sigmund and his group. Where did they arrive at? Is it not where we are? Was it not the conclusion?
    40. So, do not run helter-skelter looking for Him. He is already here with you. Even as at that time he was talking, he said that he believed that He was already around– around the corner!
    41. And that was in the early 50s. From what they researched into and the calculations they made from ancient days, they got the calculation accurately. By this early 50s, He is here.
    42. By the calculations we made from the forgotten Books of Eden and many other ancient Books, did we not arrive at the date?
    43. Look at the one we made recently. Where Bishop Chidubem took it upon Himself to do all calculations, even to the age of marriage. He even got closest to His departure date. Closest, but he did not get it.
    44. Two persons that came closest to it remain Bishop Chidubem and Pastor Melchizedek. Throughout the whole world, these two came closest, but they did not get it. If they had gotten it, I would have extended it.
    45. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PARADISE, Chapter 5 from verse 1. 1Proverbs 13:13-14. 13Despise God’s Word and find yourself in trouble. … What? Despise God’s Word and find yourself in trouble. The mad man from Ngwa. Obey it and succeed.” Is it not what is killing you?
    46. When we sing, you dance more than every other person. I am not saying that you should not dance. Be happy.

    Brethren, believe this Spoken Word. It is the Original Seed. If you go back to the Great Sermon, it said, “The Spoken Word can come to you in diverse forms. But the secret is this: Whether He uses telephone, whether He speaks face-to-face, no matter where you have met Him, He is nothing but what He is.” Do not begin to separate the carnal side from the spiritual side. God has only but One Side, One Nature and One Entity. Do not say, “I thought He was playing.” No! you are making a mistake.

    HAVE FAITH IN THE SPOKEN WORD; Preached on 14th July 2013 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 104 vs. 33

    THE SPOKEN WORD IS THE ORIGINAL SEED

    1. any are still carrying the Bible like Pastor Chizoba Ugwu and his co-Ministers. The moment you mention the Word of God, their eyes and mind will go to the Bible. They are yet to divorce this from their hearts, even when they are holding the wholesome truth in their day.
    2. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu, Pastor Thomas Ezeh, Deacon Chibuko Israel. I am referring to three of you. That you are closest to Me may mean your destruction in the end if you do not address this all-important issue beginning with your life and your family because what you have is what you have spoilt your families with.
    3. If you could tolerate that nonsense yesterday from Ikenna from Opi, the small boy who knew nothing but how to read the Bible, and you were giving him a backing the same way you are also erecting old foundation in your families. Only God knows what you want to achieve.
    4. Brethren, this Faith is a delicate one. One little slip, you are outside the Faith. That is why it is middle-of-the-road. Stay where you are asked to stay.
    5. If you are confused, take a Sermon Book. It is better you take a Sermon Book and begin to read with your family than to try to coin out a Message. In your attempt to build up your own Message, you are going to erect something outside the true structure.
    6. You are going to erect a new foundation which Christ never erected, for no other foundation can any man lay than that which is laid already, which is Christ. Christ in you, the hope of glory. So, by building a Message that can be credited to you, you will build off form.
    7. Look at the one we are holding here. WHO WILL BE WITH GOD [THE SON OF MAN] IN PARADISE? See how strict that Message is. The Preacher remained there focused. It has helped us to remain focused.
    8. Whatever comment I am making here, they are aimed at explaining it more and more. We are seeing the truth clearer and clearer.
    9. But when you want to build another Message, there is no way it can fit into this original Message. You must build off form. Oftentimes, you use your thoughts and imaginations, your feelings to build up Messages. It is not good.
    10. Another is using developments in your family to build a message. When you are using that development, be sure you are not playing a retaliatory role. You were offended. You want to retaliate.
    11. Or you are offended. You want to show you are the authority, maybe because you have walked in the wrong, and somebody there is trying to put you back to the Faith. You will build a Message that will make you incorrigible by members of your family. It is not a good development.
    12. Proverbs 13:13-14.3[14]The advice of a wise man refreshes like water from a mountain spring. Those accepting it become aware of the pitfalls on ahead.”
    13. WHO WILL DWELL WITH GOD IN PAPADISE by Bishop Joe Ukpong, Chapter 5 from verse 4.4The wisest man upon this Earth is the Son of Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena [Blessed be His Most Holy Name]. Whatever He is telling us helps us to see the pitfalls ahead of us.
    14. Is He the One saying it? Did we discover it? It is a research. Did we discover it? Ok.
    15. 5Once we are paying heed to the Word of God, we cannot fall into those pitfalls because He has already shown us the danger that is ahead of us. What is He doing today? Warning us of the dangers that is lying ahead of us.
    16. 6The period we are in is a period that we love our God and love means to abide in and obey Him. …
    17. Stop there! Get the interpretation right. Whatever you are holding as truth, you are right by holding it until God speaks.
    18. If God speaks on that matter, and you discover that what you have been upholding concerning that matter runs contrary to what God is saYing on that matter, drop your own. Drop your own!
    19. Going further means clashing with God. And you cannot clash with God and stand. Impossible! God can never be in the wrong.
    20. Always have it in your heart and in your brain. Man has always been in the wrong. Man has always been living in the wrong, from the days of your fathers.
    21. God has always been proved right. Man’s attempt has always been to prove God wrong so that he might be justified. True or false?
    22. What is the cause of all arguments and disputing? Is it not to dispute God so that man’s opinion will hold sway over God’s final Word on the matter.
    23. What has it resulted to? Men have always disappointed themselves when God will permit them angrily to have it their own way. He will recoil and watch them from a distance. Before you know it, they will destroy themselves.
    24. It is like a driver that is warned with a danger signal, asking him to slow down, but he ignores it because he thinks he is an expert. Before you know it, the road he knows very well, he might not know that the bridge across that road has collapsed.
    25. He must plunge into that river because he ignored the sign that waved him down, signaling danger ahead. He relied on his knowledge of that route. He might not even know when that road is under repair.
    26. Oftentimes, you see people ram into a parked vehicle. Do you not see it. An on-coming vehicle on top speed will slide under another parked truck. Was the driver blind?
    27. So, be very careful. If we can speak where God speaks, and be silent where God is silent, truly speaking, pleasing God becomes very easy.
    28. Man has always been guilty of addition and subtraction to What God has said on a matter because he wants to exercise authority.
    29. He has a clever way he will use to set aside the Word of God so that his own word will be heard.
    30. But wise people who know Him as the wisest Being, the Most intelligent, the Most understanding will always obey the Word of God.
    31. I am not saying it because the research findings said so about Him. Has He not been saying it about Himself? Who has ever faulted Him with doctrine? Not even among you. I mean elsewhere.
    32. If this Message is limited to all of you here and within Nigeria, you might be saying, “Has He tested it everywhere?” But now, I have gone round the whole globe.
    33. Remember, I did not go to school. Nobody sent Me to any research institute to research about the Faith. I came with this Faith. It is a heavenly Message.
    34. That is why it is difficult for earthly men. A heavenly Message is very difficult for earthly-bound human beings. Only heavenly-bound human beings will accept this Message AND WALK BY IT, but the rest wont.
    35. If it is a worldly Message, oh no! We cannot stay here now. The whole world will be for us like they are out there. But this Message is for a peculiar set of people. And only God knows who those people are.
    36. Be very careful that you do not destroy yourself as we near the end. Any mistake that is made now can never be corrected. Where will you correct it?
    37. We have entered that narrowest path where nobody can make a U-turn with his vehicle. In your attempt to make a U-turn you must cause accident or obstruction. That is where we are.
    38. And if you are notstrong in your faith, people will brush you aside and continue the journey. This is where we are now.
    39. If you have never seen a struggle, cast your minds back to when there was cash trouble few months ago or few years ago in a bank, where customers pushed down the bank gate, even that security door that ushers people in.
    40. They pressed down there at the branch of First Bank along that New Market Road. It fell inside. In spite of the collapse of that thing, the whole crowd trooped in. The security men ran away. The police was invited but they refused to come.
    41. Will you come and kill people that have come to make transactions? Do you want them to die of starvation when they have their money in the bank? Impossible.
    42. Begin to check the level of pressure that was mounted on that security door that pushed everything down. You see what desperation can cause?
    43. I am telling you that where we are now, both human beings and angels are desperate. I am desperate.
    44. The rate at which I am constructing this edifice, the permanent home for God and His chosen ones– the rate at which I am handling it will tell you how desperate I am. You do not need a Prophet to tell you that.
    45. Day and night, has work ever stopped that place for one day? Do you know that today, being Sunday, they are still working there. There is no Sunday you cannot see workers there.
    46. And you think I am crazy? You think I am just doing it to collect rent from anybody? If it is for rent, by now, I would have collected enough money. I would have been using people’s money to do the completion.
    47. But nobody has even been promised a place. A place for what? Does it look like a commercial house?
    48. 7Triumphant Entry Into Paradise, Chapter 4 verse 56. “[56]Brethren, we must be very careful including Ministers. Anybody who has been called to follow must of a necessity be very much obedient and careful so that we do not run into trouble.”
    49. 9This is what is expected of us in this hour that we are. We must be obedient for we have been called to follow. It is a privilege. It is not a right. There were many out there. Out of the many, He made a choice for the choice is His to make.
    50. 10The choice belongs to no man. It is He that decides who follows Him. … It is He who decides who follows Him and who follows Him not.
    51. 13 [61]But as surely as God liveth and extendeth His hand of salvation to us, let us be humble enough. Let us be obedient enough. Let us be submissive enough as to go down. Bend down and say, “My Lord, give me my own”, and you receive your own because now it is clearer that not everybody was sealed into the Ark and so that we do not deceive ourselves in the ocean of salvation and we go home without salvation. Amen.” How can we be inside water and still be thirsty simply because we deliberately tied our mouths and refused to drink water? Instead, let us remain thirsty.
    52. 17The greatest testimony you should share is that you are sure and certain that even if the Heaven and the Earth will shatter into pieces or be removed in their places or positions that your name is engraved there. Amen!!!
    53. 25… Thus, a poor man is not one without money but one without Christ.” Pure truth!
    54. 26The world today are making their noise and God decided to show them that their money is useless nonsense. Sure!!!
    55. Our Brother Chibuko should close us with a word of prayer.
