WHAT HINDERS PRAYER
WHAT IS PRAYER
People say that prayer is a communication between man and his God, but to Christians prayer is a fellowship between Christians and God through Jesus Christ, it is a two way affairs, it requires speaking and responding, it requires singing and dance, it requires praises and rejoices. It is a mutual interaction, relationship and friendship. In all meaning, it must begin first with wedding/marriage between man and God, without this wedding/marriage prayer is meaningless because good relationship has not been established. This wedding is to be baptized with Christ, dead with Him, buried with Him and resurrect with Him, in all situation, (the world calls it’s own “initiation”). People pray without response because they have no marriage with God, you need to have good relationship first, you need to be very friendly with God, you need to be in love with God, Christ called it "BORN AGAIN" otherwise your prayer may be a waste. If you are in marriage with God, you need to always refresh and maintain the good relationship with him, for without good relationship, marriage may not last. How can marriage last without good relationship? If you cannot be in marriage with Him, how can you always expect marriage gift from Him, know you not that our God is a jealous God?
A woman can romantically request something from a man and receive it, only when she is in love with the man.
Now this type of relationship is so difficult with us, but some of us have certain relationships with God, relationships between son and father, relationship between servant and master. The relationship between wife and husband is hard to find, I wish and pray to have this relationship with God; relationship between wife and husband. If you have this type of relationship with God, you will become so precious to Him, you will be a man after God’s heart as David, you will be the apple of God’s eye as- “Zech. 2:8 For thus says the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that touches you touches the apple of his eye.”- when you are the apple of God’s eye, man after God’s heart, precious to God, I tell you, what so ever you ask or pray to God, that He will do for you, and you must also love to do what so ever He commands you to do. This is how prayer is two way affairs, mutual communication, a fellowship between man and God, as it was in Eden.
· Do you have this type of fellowship with God?
· How often do you fellowship with God?
· How many times do you talk to Him in a day?
· How many hours do you spent discussing with Him?
· Do you faint talking to Him?
· Do you ever hear Him?
· If you hear, how do you respond to His commands?
At times God comes to have fellowship with us through Holy Spirit and we hide ourselves, just as Adam and Eve did, how? By receiving the ministration to pray but sleep, doziness, stress, thinking of worldly affairs or discouragement makes us to hide from God, This often happens to many of us.
If you are married to God, and believe that He is always with you, you must therefore talk to Him always, answer Him whenever He calls, and you must always respond to His words when He speaks to you. God talks to you and I always.
If you don’t talk to Him, and when He talks to you, you don’t respond, He will leave you. This is why Apostle Paul says in “Eph 6:18 Praying always with all prayer, “1Thess. 5:17, Pray without ceasing”. in fact, St. Paul teaches every thing concerning fellowshipping with God in “1Thess. 5 from 15 to 22, “1Thess. 5:15 see that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourself and for all”. (Commandment of Christ)
1Thess. 5:16 “Rejoice always.
1Thess. 5:17 “Pray without ceasing.
1Thess. 5:18 “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
1Thess. 5:19 “Do not quench the Spirit.
1Thess. 5:20 “Do not despise prophecies.
1Thess. 5:21 “Test all things; hold fast what is good.
1Thess. 5:22 “Abstain from every form of evil.
Many times, what restrains us from prayer or fellowshipping with God is our sins, which is ever before us, which the accuser the Satan uses to accuse brethrens.
When ever you committed a sin and want to pray in the next hour, Satan will accuse you, reminding you what you did, in so doing you become weak to pray fervently. To Some people, Satan has already seared their conscience that they would go ahead praying, of without receive from God “Jms 4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts”. This is where God will not also answer you, because the sin has separated you from God, But all you need to do immediately you feel weak or your prayer not answered is to kneel down there and ask God to have mercy and forgive you, then condemn the tongue of the accuser as in “Is 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD, after this you will see yourself flowing.
I know what sin can do to prayers because I was deeply in sin. Being the chief of sin brought me to a certain stage that I could not pray any more for mouths. In those days, each night I went in with a woman, I could not pray that night and the following morning, and when this prayer stopped in my life, it will take me for about six months to return back to prayer, this means to quench the spirit, “1 Thess. 5:19 “Do not quench the spirit”. Does this also happen to you? If it does, you know that it is your sin that separates you from God, all you need to do is to stop sinning, and if mistakenly you sin, first ask God to forgive you before praying any other prayer.
But the best prayer is the prayer of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(1) Our father who is in Heaven Hallow be to your name.
(2) Let your kingdom come,
(3) Let your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
(4) Give us this day our daily bread
(5) Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us
(6) Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil.
(7) For yours is the kingdom and power and the glory forever, Amen.
But this prayer is for born again Christians, the already repented.
BE YOU A PASTOR, PREACHER, PROPHET, OR EVANGELIST, YOU MAY FAIL BUT A PRAYERFULL CHILD OF GOD CAN NEVER FAIL
WHAT MAKES US UNABLE TO PRAY?
Weakness
Sleep
Discouragement
Fear
WEAKNESS
Weakness means lack of strength, power or determination, this at times results from over labor of the body, excess food in the stomach (over feeding) in-take of alcohol or drug. But these are for the body, not spirit.
May we talk about weakness in prayer; from my experiences, Satan is the cause of weakness in prayer, even when you have done any little or big job in the day, a carnal person will ask, how? This is a spiritual thing. Satan will make you have good reasons not to pray when ever he makes you weak, Satan will tell you, you need to rest after your day’s activity, Satan will tell you that it is natural to be weak, Satan will even remind you that “you are a human being” even God knows”, the next is for you to go to bed without prayer. Even some pastors can’t pray fervently, some will say they don’t believe in too much prayer, Forgetting that Jesus Christ prayed fervently too much, even to the end on the cross and unto this day, Jesus started with prayer and still continues with prayer, as He advocates for you and I in heaven. In one of the revelations I had; the queen of the coast confessed to the Angel and I after beating hell out of her and her accompanied demons, that they hold some men of God in their palm that they will always be weak to pray, because fervent prayers of Children of God destroy their powers and render them weak to operate, after the days this was revealed to me, I reject to be prayerless. This may be hard for you to believe, But the undoubtable thing is that, after this weakness, you find it difficult to pray every other day, you will notice now that you are no more fervent as before, this is why Paul said in 1Thess. 5:19 “Do not quench the spirit”. When ever Satan puts you in this state, he weakens you and sends you many attacks, such like spiritual wife or husband, eating in the dream, swimming, being pursued by masquerades, fears in the dream and in the physical etc, some people with carnal mind dispute may this, but above all, I had experienced most of these all, so l will explain how they occur, the cause and what to do to stop them.
STRESS
Stress means, pressure or worry caused by the problems in some one’s life.
Satan is also the cause of this problem, you may think that your stress is caused by problems, I may some times agree with you, but I want you to agree with me that not all stress are cause by problem. A child of God can have problem and hand it over to God to take care of, and the stress will not come. But whenever stress is put into the body it becomes a problem, and whenever problem is put into the body, it becomes a stress. The body doesn’t need any of these operate as Christ rather than the Holy Spirit Now when these occur, you become prayerless, and a thinking Christian instead of a prayerful Christian, because the fire of Holy Spirit has disappeared from you. This is one of the wonderful experiences I never forget while I was in prison. Let me share this experience “before I was imprisoned I was preaching and praying so hard while in police custody, because I got the warning after my disobedient to choose either madness, imprisonment or work of God, which I carelessly chose imprisonment, knowing that I will be sentenced. But my fear was, for how many years would I be sentenced now, I began to pray every time and every where, both in the cell and in court, one day I got a revelation to plead guilty and truly I was guilty both before man, government and God, being arrested with cocaine, after I got this revelation, I thought that I would be giving an option of fine, unfortunately I got sentenced and was sent to prison. When I got to the prison, I felt discouraged to preach and to pray much as usual believing that I chose imprisonment and got, so the deal with God is over. Some months later, I preached to a Muslim inmate who repented and requested for my prayer over his count appeal. I went to my cell that night and decided to go into a fervent prayer, something strange kept on occurring. If I kneel down to pray, I will sleep off, this occurred for days before I picked the fire again.
This second story was the first experience; after being sentenced, I began to have stress, I couldn’t pray anymore, every night I would be watching up the selling, I would be having sleepless nights, sickness joined with the stress now. One day, I decided to always go into midnight prayer; the first day, I slept off before 9pm and never woke up until morning; the second day, it occurred again, I became angry in my spirit and decided to be awake until 12am, that night the strange happened, after kneeling down on my bed, just the way I knelt down and bowed down my head, I slept off until in the morning around 5am when one of my inmate next to me went to urinate and saw me still kneeling and bowing down from 12am to 5am, and woke me up. I woke up and was bitter in my spirit, I got angry that morning praying, because I discovered that Satan had been tormenting me, giving me problem, when I tried to think to solve my problem, he gave me stress, when tried to deal with the stress by prayer, he gave me sleep. But With God I overcame all these, I will tell you what and how to defeat the Satan.
Now here is the solution, being born again, you should take a stand, go into fasting and prayer, you may feel very week but push on, charge yourself by singing praises, make melodies in your heart meditate about God, study your bible continuously. You must concentrate on every thing about God. That means you must focus on God until the fire is completely kindled in you. Still push on so that the flame of fire of Holy Spirit in you dries all the weakening virus which the enemy has injected into you, then you become charged and sparkling that any thing or person you touch will the catch fire.
But if you try this and find it so difficult, go to your pastor if he or she is a Holy Spirit fire brand or any man of God who has the fire, pray with him continuously until you catch the fire of Holy Spirit, this is like re-baptizing you with Holy Spirit and fire. Never quench it again so that you grieve the Holy Spirit, which is one of the sins against Holy Spirit.
SLEEP
Sleep means to rest with your eyes closed and your mind and body not active.
This definition is true in our lives, but when it comes to the nature of God, it is wrong for a child of God to remain inactive because God the father, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit are always active in our life. Ps 121:4 Our God shall neither sleep nor slumber. If we are like God or Christ, we should have the nature of God, most especially whenever we are doing things of God.
Now when it comes to prayer, sleep against prayer is caused by Satan, some people may dispute it, but they must be carnal minded people, the enemies of God “Rm 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God”. To a child of God, when you want to pray and sleep appears, you must know that Satan has appeared, this is why Jesus Christ warned the disciples in “Lk 22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation”. And bible warns us to sober and awake just because devil in 1Th 5:6 ¶ Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
1Pe 4:7 ¶ But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
1Pe 5:8 ¶ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
1Th 5:6 ¶ Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
1Th 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For you don’t know when and how Satan comes to steal, to kill, and destroy.
When the Satan comes like this, know you that he has a great mission against your life, because if he allows you to continue, you will shatter his plans, and the purpose in which you pray will be automatically answered.
For those who dispute that Satan is not the cause of sleep during prayer or fellowship with God, why can’t you ask yourselves this question, why is it that when you want to pray, maybe late in the night or even in the day, sleep comes, but at that very point, if someone calls or speaks to you with an interesting news or story, the sleep disappears?
This happens often in many families’s night and morning devotion; you will see every body soundly awake, immediately we gather to pray, you see some dozing or sleeping, but after this prayer, the sleep will disappear, does this happen to you? This also happens to some men of God, it also happened to me in the past that I enquired from God and He revealed to me the cause, how satan does it, I will give you this revelation later.
When you want to pray and a voice starts telling you, that you cannot cheat nature, sleep must come. Tell the sleep (Satan) that it is not in the nature of God that a child of God should sleep when praying. Rebuke the satan sharply as Christ did, he will flee. Let me tell, satan is like a dog, if rebuke him, he leaves quietly. But if he finds out that you are obedient to him, he will gently spread a sleeping virus into your entire body through your eyes, up to your brain, down to your knee. Stand up and rebuke the satan, let him know that you are like you God who never sleeps nor slumbers, you can only sleep when you want.
Discouragement
Discouragement means a feeling that you no longer have the confidence or enthusiasm to do something.
This is well clear that this discouragement is not from God, is it from who then? this, satan also does when he has overcome you with prayerlessness, through sleep and weakness, he will make you to believe that you have been praying all these while, but God does not answer, Satan is a deceiver, (the deceiver and the deceived shall end up in one place) unless you refused to be deceived, Satan will not refuse to deceive you”. Now I want you to ask yourself this question, all those while you were sleeping and praying; were you really praying? Then if you say, you were praying, what was the response from God? Because if you speak to somebody, the person must respond, otherwise it is either, the person doesn’t hear your voice, and then all you need to do for him to hear you, is to stand up and be louder.
Now you stand up and stop listening to Satan. You don’t speak to someone while you are dozy, otherwise the person will see you as stupid according to dictionary. Then if you sleep while praying, how would you hear from God. You can see now that Satan is a deceiver from the beginning. When he has defeated you with sleep, stress and weakness, he comes with discouragement, making you to believe that God does not answer prayers; truly God answers prayer.
I remember one day, in fact, the first day I fasted and prayed, immediately after this fasting and prayer, I got a hit that nearly took my life, after this hit, each I remember prayer or fasting I got discouraged, but did I really pray and fast? Or did I go on hunger strike. Discouragement comes when you have prayed the sleeping and dozy prayers, perhaps for three to seven days and no answer.
At times discouragement comes when God has already answered us in the spirit, but still fixing things that are wrong in our life which should be the first, this is why you must be persistent, and answer comes when you are persistent, when you did not faint, when you are patient.
FEAR
Fear is one of the strongest weapons that Satan uses to paralyze Christians.
Whenever Satan puts fear in you, and you accept it, you have sinned against God, and when you sin against God, Satan accuses you, when Satan accused you, he sends you a back-sliding spirit, when he sends you the back-sliding spirit, you will no longer have the ability to pray because your faith is gone, Bible says, fear is torment, and you shall fear no one except God “1Jn 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love,
Fear kills a child of God spiritually, and physically,
Fear brings a giant man of God down to under the foot of Satan.
Fear is what makes Christians depend on doctors and their medicine instead of God, even satanic and occult doctors, children never believe that God has given us dominion over everything including sickness and medicine. I sat down on the Lords day meditating with the spirit of God, and heard that the synonym of Satan is fear, when I heard this I repented, as people always say, “I have fear” the same spirit also told me that to fear is to respect.
Now these are the meaning:-
If anyone has fear for anything, what you necessarily said is “You have Satan, but if you say, you fear God, what you mean is that you respect God,” so to have fear for the world is to have Satan for the world, while to fear God is to respect God.
“Is. 8:13, Fear is a sin. With weakness, sleep, stress, discouragement and fear prayerlessness is born into the life of a Christian, and when it is born, Satan comes in with various attacks such as “wet dreams” (spiritual husband and wife) “swimming in dreams”, “eating in dreams”, pursued by masquerade etc.
POSSESSION
Some people believe that wet dream is normal, yes it is normal to sinners who quite fornication, it is abnormal to a righteous who flee fornication. After all a fornicator hardly has wet-dream because he discharges to the ocean, even when the queen of coast does not need his blood. Pray and know the meaning of this.
When you tell people that they are possessed, they will not believe, they ask when and how were they initiated. There are more than 77 ways people can be initiated, even without being fully aware. Peter was even possessed by satan when he started discouraging Jesus, “Mt 16:23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men”, you can see that any one who allows satan to come into him is possessed by him, same as if any one who allows Holy Spirit to possess him.
There are different ways to be possessed satan, The strongest is the one that is done through blood, to be free from this possession requires blood otherwise you are doing nothing. I speak with experience, I was born by a marine native doctor who partially separated people from this possession by reaching agreement with the marine spirit (mummy water), in some cases the spirit may fail to take the agreement no matter the amount of blood offered, at times it takes their lives. But one good news is that the blood of Jesus frees without negotiation.
Sex is one of the biggest initiation and possession that Satan uses to destroy people’s destiny, business, marriage, life etc.
The first time I went out for evangelism in South Africa, I had a team partner by name Janet, this lady was highly possessed. When she came to the street with us preaching, being a former prostitute, she would be telling any man who had slept with her to go for deliverance, else he remains possessed and can never achieve anything in this life. She confessed how they operate in their kingdom, how they useless men’s life.
If you have sex with anyone who is possessed, you are automatically possessed. If you marry a possessed wife and have sex with her, you are automatically possessed with her, ”1Co 6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, says he, shall be one flesh”, if you are sanctified by the blood Jesus Christ, you will be free and her possession will manifest, this is also same to the husband who is possessed. But the sanctification by one is not seen often, because the same blood of Jesus will not let you marry her, except for God’s purpose.
This prostitute’s possession is bad that you hardly pass a day without sex, so dangerous that any one who has no spirit of God enough cannot control himself or herself, if he or she comes close to you. This is in men and women, but the worst is in women, because in one day more than 10 people can approach her, and in all these men, she may accept one or more. This is caused by the marine spirit which is in snake form. In some cases, these snakes turn to male form making love with her life without her seeing the person. You can see some girls from rich families prostituting, not because of money. Some married women going around sleeping with men outside, I tell you, any woman in this condition needs help if you have any one around you, because she is not herself. This is why you can hear that a woman slept with son, these things happens often in our society, you can only hear the stories a man sleeping with his daughter perhaps when the daughter is pregnant, or the daughter may fee defeated. The immorality between mother and son is not heard often because boys can’t complain due to family shame, but I heard this total confession from a young man, that he slept with the mother, this confession brought a total silence and cold which lasted more than five minute in the church, but this young man was delivered from such bondage. This happened when the Spirit of God instructed for confession that has not been told to any body.
Spiritual wife and husband possession at times starts from young age, even before sex maturity, this type is so dangerous, this may cause you not to marry, or if you insist to marry, you will not conceive, if you eventually conceive, you may die during the pregnancy or after delivery. In this case, the husband always faces hardship, this lady is already married in the marine world before the man met her, the man may be possessed also, it does not matter because she is married first to the marine husband. See this story of my friends who were possessed with this type, though they were engaged. The man started facing hardship when he met the girl and engaged with her. This friend couldn’t understand what was wrong with him in his business; he went to native doctors, of which he took me to some of them. One day, he called me, telling me that his girl friend is confirmed possessed by the native doctor, he asked me what to do, I advised him to gently ask her, not to be so harsh, but the girl so much loved him.
One day, he sent for me, when I got to his house, he was beating the girl, forcing her to follow him to one spiritualist, but the girl refused, he complained to me how he asked the girl-friend to follow him to church according to his statement, and the girl refused. He started opening up, saying that the girl is responsible for his setbacks, while he was speaking to her, she couldn’t deny it, but all she could say was that she will follow him to church but not to that one.
One day my friend told her to leave his life and never comes back, according to him, she requested that she be given a chance to have words with him the next day, he refused and insisted that if she leaved that day, she will never come back.. She cried and decided to open up, but requesting that she be taken to EFAC if anything happens to her. She admitted that she is possessed right from birth, that her mother conceived her through the power of marine because the mother was unable to conceive, she got married with the marine husband, but she love my friend, and never wanted to harm him, not even to see his business backsliding, that the backsliding of his business is from him, and when ever this happens she herself suffers it also. She said that each time she came to my friend’s house, he would like to have sex with her, anytime they have this, the business will back-slide more and more.
On her case, each sex they have must cause her abortion because she must conceive, and the abortion would nearly take her life, of which I witnessed that, visiting her in the hospital. This is a true story, if you know me very well in my business area then; you will know the people I am talking about. Although I am looking for them as we missed each other for over ten years now. Many people today have this type of problem, I tell you, studying this book and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you must be free. Some men of God find it difficult to deliver people from this possession completely, you see them every time conducting deliverance in the church, these people become the show of deliverance and you see them attending every deliverance church or ministry, yet nothing will happen, you also see them falling down and being disgraced by the devil everywhere, as some demons are more wicked than others,
Most of this type of possession starts from sex, some are hereditary. There are many other ways one can be initiated, such as gift from possessed one, wearing one cloth with possessed one, joining many group, club or society that you do not know the foundation, some of these are also in churches, making many friends, application of make-up, going to occult or witch doctors etc,
Now to explain very well about this spiritual husband and wife, and the difference between it and wet dream.
Wet dream is a discharge, in which a fornicator has when a fornicator eats or drinks a high reproductive food without having sex in the next moment, he or she can have the discharge or wet dream. Or when a fornicator thought of sex, desiring to have it, then this wet-dream may occur; this is why Jesus Christ said that when a man sees a woman desiring to have sex with her in his heart, he has already fornicated with her. “Mt 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.”
This wet-dream or discharge happens thus, you may discharge without fornicating in the dream, and you will think you are urinating on your bed while discharging, at times you will only wake-up and find yourself wet.
But spiritual wife or husband sex, or dream sex, or marine sex because this demon is from water, is the sex that takes place in the dream. Sometimes you may only touch the person and discharge, sometimes you hug the person and discharge, sometimes you kiss and discharge, in more often people have full time sex, and some enjoy it, people like me in those days enjoy. When I had not repented, this happened to me that I so much enjoyed, when I repented, this became my problem, that I nearly got discouraged. The period that I got more provoked was after my suffering in fasting and praying, at the end of it this woman would come. I never hid it as many Christians do, so that I could get solutions from people. To my greatest surprise, when I complained this openly in the church, almost every young repented Christians said that they experienced the same as I did, I said to myself, “oh, I am not the only one” yet it did not stop. One day I was sleeping with one brother who is so vibrant than me, and this woman came, after I discharged, this brother jumped up rebuking and casting the woman, shouting “I saw you, you woman of Babylon, you can never take any more of this from us, before then I was weak to pray, but immediately the brother boosted into prayer, I got sharpened to pray, we prayed until morning. After this prayer, I couldn’t see the sperm on my short anymore, this woman ran away from me for some times, yet it did not stop completely. But the day I stood to fight back even before she starts, was the night I prepared to go to night vigil, it was around 9pm, I said let me sleep and wake up at 11pm, immediately I slept, I saw a friend but not repented with a young girl of 10 years, after that I saw this friend lying down and this small girl was on top of him springing up and down naked with him fornicating. Could you believe that I was watching them like movie until 3am, I woke up and became very angry, praying and asking God what to do to stop this mess, after that prayer God spoke to me and taught me the cause and what to do to stop it. And God also taught me what I should do if eventually this occurs to me again. He also taught me what the devil does to me each time he attacks, with this I will teach you this also.
People also eat in the dreams, people are also being pursued by the masquerades, people also swim in the dream, some are being strangled by a demon which looks like a hefty giant in dreams etc, these are different kinds of attack that people receive from Satan, but the most dangerous is sex and food in the dream. Being pursued in the dream is that Satan puts fear in you, after this attack fear will grip you when you wake up, and even when you want to sleep, making you to also sin against God, swimming in the dream is having fun with enemies without knowing that those are enemies. Sometimes they will be friendly, some times will be unfriendly when you refuse, but before this take place, you must have been initiated, although you may not be aware.
Why food is dangerous in the dream is that you may be poisoned without knowing, why sex is more dangerous is that the Satan is in control of life, destiny, success, marriage, in fact everything about you, because your blood is already deposited to the marine world, in the marine world they will decide whether you will marry or not, or who to marry, they decide your success, this is why people work like elephant and eat like ant, they will be in total control of your destiny because you blood is involved, in this place, they can decide your death or sickness. The worst part is that if they see you as a great potential of God, they frustrate you that you succumb to their authority, they start using you as their agent. But if you prove stubborn to them and follow God, they come after you to frustrate you financially, this is where some great men of God have problem, some may back-slide, and some may join to serve Satan they ran away from ignorantly by seeking money and their belly instead of God, 1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Here is the solution to these problems, you may have gone for deliverance many times in many churches and things are not completely alright. This type of deliverance is good, but the worst part is that it is good also for demons because they throw you down every time and disgrace you everywhere, even making fun of servants of God who conduct the deliverance. I do not condemn deliverance, I had it and also conduct it to people but the issue is how we conduct this deliverance that makes demons feel good instead of leaving the people. The demons feel good because they frustrate their victim; they feel good because the servant of God conducting the deliverance does not understand them. They feel good because the man of God doesn’t know or remember the formula, which Jesus Christ used and taught his disciples. A man of God can conduct deliverance on you and you become better immediately, but after sometimes it starts again. Some demons will run away and wait for you outside, and when you go outside the church, they possess you again, that means you can only be free in the house of God, this is the problem of many possessed people. Jesus Christ teaches us the solution, but are you ready to be free from this public disgrace? Are you ready to be free from the control of Satan?
Now let us read the account of Mary Magdalene who Jesus caste out seven demons, you can see that Mary Magdalene may be more possessed than you, being possessed by seven demons. “Mk 16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.”
Step one, is this, as you believe in Jesus Christ, and have a servant of God who has the spirit of God. Go to him now for final deliverance; tell him that you need this final deliverance.
2nd step is this, this deliverance is the only and final deliverance, and without this, you cannot be free, and the worst part and the major purpose of Satan is to ensure that you die and make hell, because he will possess you to hell, as a possessed person cannot make heaven. This deliverance must be decided by you, is not by force, but by your willingness and total submission, you have to be aggressive to the devil and take your freedom by force, and never to go back again otherwise the possession will be worst seven times than former. Lk 11:24-26. Immediately the deliverance conduct is finished, tell the servant of God that you want to be baptized with Holy Spirit and power. Mary Magdalene had this baptism. After the baptism, tell him that you want to be born again “Jn 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” though it is the same as baptism, tell him that you want him to be your mentor, to teach you how to repent and turn to God Acts3:19., how to be born again, Jn 3:10-21 Mary Magdalene was born again. Now study your scripture, pray without ceasing, become aggressive in your prayer, abstain from every manner of sin, look for born again society in your church and join them to follow Jesus Christ. Mary Magdalene anointed Jesus with costly oil; she also was the first to see Jesus when He rose from death with other women. Mtt. 28:1-10. Because she followed Him everywhere He went. Pray to feel your entire body with the fire of Holy Spirit that the devil will have no room inside you again.
If you do this exactly as I have told you here, truly you will never be possessed by any demon again. I was like you, perhaps even greater than you, but today I am a brother of Jesus Christ, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, no more of satan. In fact this is the end of every problem. But peradventure you sin or mistake, be on your knee and ask God for forgiveness.
Then what you must also do is to ensure that you pray against this spirit, whenever you want to sleep. If you wake up and want to sleep again, you must pray, that means you must pray every time, and mostly every time you want to sleep, even if you wake up in the midnight and want to sleep again.!!!!!!!!!!
Whether sickness, trouble or whatever. I am a witness to all these, I experienced more than I have written.

Mystic power, Juju or Mutilation.
This is another dangerous means in which Satan uses to possess people who is involved in them, their children, or even relative.
Many native doctors and their children suffer this, many rich men who involved themselves in this mystic power also have their children useless, it renders wife useless, it renders family useless. Just look at those who involve themselves into it, you can see that problem never finishes in their lives. My family was the example, my father was a native doctor, he had the powers to solve people’s problem, yet he could not solve his own problem. In this kind of family, everybody always live in fear, fear of the demons they serve and worship, fear of the enemy, the children are possessed with one demon or more, in their lives there is no freedom, no happiness, the only things that will make them happy or fearless is alcohol or drug. If you also come from this kind of family you must agree with me. I mean also those who go to the native doctor, even their case is more dangerous that the native doctor, because the native doctor may know the neutralizer or prevention, or what to do if the juju reacts, but you may not know the reactions except you ask the native doctor, and the worst of it is that the native doctor will never tell you the after effect of it and the prevention. Most of these juju need human blood or life or womb/ fertility to function effectively, some of them hunt the blood for themselves; this is why in families that involve themselves in it, you always find these problems. You can see some people who are wealthy, but their children, either one or more will be a problem child, misusing the wealth. People will call such a child “prodigal son” some will be armed robbers, some are imbeciles, some of their ladies will prostitute, these are children from wealthy families, then people will call them all sorts of names, even their parents who caused these problems with the juju without knowing will call them names, some parents disown the child who they caused his problem. Some of this juju kills people on behalf of the person who owns it without the person knowing. This is why many at times you see people being accused of something they don’t know when they did it. In this case, the juju has done all these on their behalf, then if people enquire of the evil prophet or sorcerers about it, their name must be accused in the spirit. This thing is the case in many families, villages and communities today. I was in a place one day, one man brought a case like this, where he was blaming his son of embezzling his wealth, after his complaint to his friend who is also my friend, as he wanted to live, the holy spirit ministered to me to tell him to stop blaming the child, that he is the cause of his son’s problem, this man was shocked, and asked what he would do, the Holy spirit said that he must call the child and pray for the child, denounce every involvement and bless the child. When this man left, my friend asked me how I knew what the man did while I never knew him, and he, my friend knew what the man did but did not know that that was the cause of the his child’s problem who he also blame. Many children suffer this, people blame them, parents and relative hate them, and then I ask people this question, “who among you hates to be rich, who among you loves poverty. Now think about those whose problem is madness, imbecility or disability which are also as a result of this mutilation, do we have to blame them also, then if we cannot blame them, we should stop blaming anybody with any infirmity as these, rather pray for them to be free.
But if you are the parent or relative who is responsible for this problem, there are solution to it, and even to you because you have greater problems, one of the major problems is that you must not live long unless the child died young, and yet more problems awaits you. But one thing is assured; the day you died is the day the child will be free, but not completely until he is into Christ Jesus, this thing also happened in my family. The solution to this problem may seem impossible to you, but to me in Christ Jesus this is the easiest problem to solve, for what is impossible with man is possible with God, Lu 18:27, Lu 1:37, Mk 10:27, Mt 19:26.
Mt 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Mtt 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, with men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Mk 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, with men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
Lk 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
Lk 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
(Devil spares not even his people)
Sin
Sin is an offence against God, breaking the law of God.
I have come to meditate about this thing called sin and discovered that noting separates man from the love of God, not persecution, not hunger, poverty, not ever Satan but sin, sin is also the only thing that unites man with Satan.
Sin makes man an enemy of God, and sin makes man the lover of Satan.
Sin has caused God to vacate his house which he built and furnished with his Glory because of sin, God after spending a divine 144hrs to complete his creation, cursed the entire thing which He unprecedented designed; serpent, man, woman and earth.
Any soul that sins shall die, we misunderstand this, many of are dead thinking that we are living. Adam died immediately he sinned.
God created everything good, God did not create sin.
God created everything and made man the manager, but instead of man to do his job and live gloriously with God, he change from being the manager, and went to make experiments of his own creation. And created sin, sin shortened the glory of God in man and becomes immortal; Man handed over his immortality to sin and becomes mortal, what a shame!. Ever since that day the only creation of man becomes a nuisance to him, if man wants to seat down, sin appears, if man wants to stand, sin appears, if man wants to move, sin appears. I mediated on this and fear gripped me, I said, no wonder God could not spare his only son and sent him to be used for our atonements, because it will only take God’s blood the highest creator to wipe out the virus called sin, not the blood of animal or even man.( As he can never spare any person who goes back to the sin knowingly, whether big or small as some people may call some, big sin and small sin, holy sin and also unholy sin, but I’m aware that there is no big sin or small sin at the judgment seat.
This is why some people believe that robbing with gun and robbing with pen are not the same, that lying and stealing are not the same, then ask yourself if you were made a judge; the one who robbed with pen in government office, felt it is not necessary to ask you for forgiveness because it is a small sin, having many reasons to do so, perhaps because it is a national cake, and many others are doing it, and the one who robbed with gun came to you crying and asking for forgiveness, perhaps after shedding many blood, who would you forgive out of these people? All sins need atonement, big or small. Today you can see people robbing in their offices, shops, homes and yet when they see people carrying gun, they say, bring them to kill, where as they are name sakes, and crime sakes. You who lie on the phone that you are in your office while you are in your house, how would you tell a 419ner to stop his sin. St Paul heard from the spirit of truth, saying, you who say, do not steal, do you rob the temple? (Ro 2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?) if you are guilty of any known sin, you are guilty of all, except on ignorance. Tell me if you have any sin remaining in you which you have not stopped, how would you expect another person to stop his sin. You preacher who preaches righteousness, do you in any way commit unrighteousness? You who preach repentance, what have you repented from? Do still have any sin attached to your repentance?
I remember when I used to be pushed to join the repented brothers to evangelize; anyone I met, I would only tell him to come to church, I could not tell him to repent, if I eventually say repent; my own sin in me will ask me, “have you repented?”
You who say repent, have you repented? This is why we repent today and backslide tomorrow, because we still have some unrepentant sin in us.
In those days, whenever I said I will not fornicate again and still drink alcohol, if I see a woman while drinking alcohol the sin will tell me, “man carry on with this woman, after all committing one sin and leaving the other is a waste", before you know it I would find myself into the sin which I said I would not commit again. You can see that sin attracts sin.
Many a times in our churches, we preach against sin and the members would not listen. Why?
Many a times in our homes, we preach to our children and they would not listen, why? Because we preach against some sins and commit others. When you preach in your church that a sinners must go to hell according to the scripture, and they see you quarrelling, lying, being greedy or keeping malice. How would you expect them to repent from their sins? While you still maintain yours. How can you preach to them about going to heaven while they see you as a candidate of hell, don’t you know that they have conscience. Even your children, when you are telling them to grow in the way of God, and they see you quarrelling or fighting with their mother, or they see you keeping late or lying. How would they believe you. I tell you, your children or church members behave like you, if your son is a thief, you are a father of a thief, and you must know that a lion cannot give birth to snake, so a lion must give birth to Lion, a sinner must give birth to a sinner, 'SIN ATTRACTS SIN'.
I tell you the truth, if you pursue righteousness and avoid all manner of sins; your members will emulate you pursuing righteousness and avoid all manner of sins. Tell me, to the eyes of the unbelievers, are you not evil to preach good and practice evil?, “you preach Good and practice evil”, to preach God and Practice Satan? This was what led me astray from church as a very little boy, when my headmaster being an elder in the church encouraged me to come to church, and he started abusing me with homosexuality, I ran away from church, believing as a child that there is no God, otherwise why did He not kill those who sin in the church, this made me to go wild believing in atheism, living in all worldliness with worst sins that many people have not committed. I was in all the sins and never saw any reason to believe in God and His preachers because, even the so called preachers and Christians did not practiced what they preach and claim, until the day God took me to a foreign country, arrested me, proved to me that He liveth and made me his prisoner, I thank God for that country and their prisons. I bless the South African police, I bless the magistrate, I bless the South African prison for the work of God they did in my life. "SIN ATTRACTS SIN" ANY SOUL THAT SINS MUST SURELY DIE" BUT ANY SOUL THAT KEEPS HIS COMMANDMENT LIVES"
WINE
A drink made from the juice of grapes. There are two types of wine: Alcoholic wine and non alcoholic wine. An alcoholic wine is the wine which is left for days or weeks to ferment.
A non alcoholic wine is the juice of grape which is not fermented; this is the type of wine miraculously produced by Jesus Christ with water Jn.2:1.
Wine is good but to abuse wine is bad (and you can’t abuse wine if you don’t drink it). For the sake of this abuse, Bible disallows every good Christian from taking alcohol, but for those who have good reason to take it may take it but a little according to 1TM 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and your often infirmities.
Wine is good, it makes heart merry, “Ecl 10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things”, wine is sweet, it is good for our drink, even our Lord Jesus Christ drank wine, He produce wine in “Jn 2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine”.
Jn 2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom”.
(Even our Lord Jesus Christ, People saw him drinking wine and they called Him a winebibber in Mtt.11:19, Lk 7:34, yet He was not drunk. Even Paul asks workers in the house of God not to take excess of wine but for us to always be filled with Holy Spirit.)
Beer, palm drink, Hot drink etc. these intoxicating drinks are totally disallowed in Christianity, they are known as strong drink, Prov. 31:6 these are not the type of wine that Jesus Christ made. Wine is made from grapes.
Some Christians today disbelieve this, saying that these intoxicating alcohol are what bible permits us to take. I was saying the same before, until God showed me in the dream what alcohol does to any body who takes it, after crying in that dream, when I woke up I remembered what this same alcohol, beer, hot and palm drink had done to me in the past. Alcohol has disabled many people, it has sent many people to their permanent sick bed, it has sent many to their early grave, and it has sent many to perpetual hell fire. Now the question is, if this is good, why could it send people to hell? Why can it at all bring bad condition to people? Alcohol has brought to many people disgrace that may never go out of their name. Alcohol never brings righteousness to anybody, but I tell you, alcohol causes 80% of sins committed, e.g when you drink alcohol you become higher, even drive out of control, when you drink alcohol you become shameless to commit sin, when you drink alcohol you become fearless to commit crime, when you drink alcohol you become very sexy even without remembering to use condom, without thinking about AIDS/ HIV.
When you drink alcohol you fight even for some thing that does not worth to fight. You may say that your case is different, that you do not react like others, and then do you truly behave like your real person when you are sober if you drink alcohol? I drank alcohol to the brim, I really know the effect of alcohol, in fact one of the things then was, when ever we were going on for crimes, we would drink and smoke that tension will disappear, but the funny thing is that, no matter the amount of alcohol or drug you take, immediately you are arrested all will disappear and the cold of fear will catch you. This is exactly the character of Satan, can you believe me that alcohol is own by Satan, if you believe me, know you also that anyone who takes it, takes in the power of Satan, I have my spiritual proof through my father who was Satanic. Alcohol is the higher spirit of the Satanic people, whenever they are in mystic work, they drink so much to have enough spirit to flow, this spirit is evil, I know many occult people, native doctors who practice in this ream, and they are more powerful than others.
My father in those days, when he was on any duty which was so deep, he would drink more than one crate of beer and other hot drinks. The idol worshippers also use hot drinks, palm drink and beer in their shrine, drinking also in excess; if you have been with them you will believe my saying.
What about the idol traditional festival, without this alcohol the spirit will not flow. I first tested alcohol during my community festival,
Two cannot work together if they do not agree, Amos 3:3, The spirit of God and the Spirit Satan cannot and will never work together because they don’t agree, this is why Paul warns that you and I should not be drunk with wine, rather we should be filled with the Holy spirit, Holy spirit makes us to fill well good, both in high, courage, fearless and in the truth and righteousness, without sin but with fear of God only.
Bible does not permit us to take beer, hot, palm drink, but you can take other good drinks and the spirit of God will live in you. If you have the spirit of God in you, and you take alcohol, the spirit of God will leave you, then the spirit of Satan which is in the alcohol comes into you and start controlling you, this is why you behave abnormal when you take it.
HOLYGHOST & FIRE
Holy spirit is promised to us by God in “Joel 2:28 ¶ And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions”, and Jesus Christ when He was in the world promised to His disciples and them that will believe, that He will send the Holy Spirit to us, when He goes to heaven in “Jn 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you”. He advised that it is better He goes and send the Holy Spirit first in “Jn 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: “Jn 14:16And I will pray the father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever. God gives the Holy Spirit to him who asks Him as said by Jesus Christ in “Lk 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”
The work of the Holy Spirit
Jn 16:8, And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.
Jn 16:9, of sin because they do not believe me; of righteousness, because I go to my father and you see me no more; of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. There are three things that the Holy Spirit does
1. Convict of sin:- For unbelievers (World)
2. Of righteousness:- For Jesus Christ (Christ)
3. Of judgment:- For Satan (ruler of the world)
“Jn. 16:13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth” – “Jn 16:14: He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is mine and declare it to you”. Now you can see that He will show us and guide us into all truth, not some truth and not into false but all truth, He will also glorify Christ in our lives, which means He will bring the glory of Christ into our live. The explanation of the work of the Holy spirit is very simple and clear, Jesus did not tell us that the Holy spirit is used to send to our enemies to destroy them, instead the scripture according to St. Paul in 1cor “5:5 deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus”. This punishment is for a backsliding brother, not your enemy. People say that they are placing judgment on their enemy, but Paul says in “1Cor. 5:12 for what have I to do with judging those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside”, “1Cor. 5:13 But those who are outside God judges”. So my brother, let us stop using the name of God and Holy Spirit in vain. Allow the Holy spirit to abide in you, it shall show you all the truth about this our Christ and Christianity, do not do or say because others who are perhaps greater than you are doing or saying, their ways may be evil, but seek the ways of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you are among the Christians praying this prayer of Holy Ghost fire to enemy, stop there now, fast and pray that the spirit of God (Holy Spirit) will guide you into all the truth.
Do not be carried away by powers around you, after all Satan operates with powers, but all powers, whether in Heaven or earth had been given to Jesus Christ Mtt.28:18. Without holiness/righteousness no eye shall see God, “Mt 5:20 For I say unto you, that except your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven”, not without powers, prophecy etc, so let us pursue righteousness. “Mtt 6:33 Seek you first the kingdom of God and His righteousness”, then am I against powers? No, I also operate with powers, but may it not take away the righteousness of Christ in me, Paul made it clearer concerning power in “1Cor 2:4: And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the spirit and of power”.
Holy Spirit is not to be used against men, but against Satan, and other works that populate the kingdom of Heaven, not to populate the kingdom of hell. Because it’s either you do the service of God or you do the service of satan, it’s either you populate the kingdom of God by saving sinner’s life as Jesus Christ commissioned us, or you populate the kingdom of satan by sending sinners to hell. Heaven is God’s habitation while hell is satan’s habitation, so ask yourself and judge yourself now; “which of these kingdom do you populate?” whose habitation you populate is the one you serve.
You are not chosen by Jesus Christ to destroy men’s lives where as He did not destroy any body, not even you when you have not repented. James and john was like you trying to use the power against their enemy, but look at the response of Jesus to them “Lk 9:53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
Lk 9:54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elijah did? Lk 9:55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. Lk 9:56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village”. This answer of Jesus shows that even the spirit that kills is not a good spirit.
Yes, some people keep on quoting the old laws which the people of old could not maintain, which made Christ to come and fulfilled, and gave us a new commandment, “Jn 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
1Jn 2:7 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
1Jn 2:8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
Jesus did not choose you to send people to hell where as he sends you to heaven, Jesus Christ came to save us from hell fire to heaven. Now there are two things on this earth, every thing on this earth has positive and negative, evil and good, male and female, God and Satan, then the service of God and Satan, then the service of Satan. You can never do the service of God and the service of Satan at the same time, you can never behave like God and Satan at the same time, you can never destroy men’s lives and at the same time save men’s live, not even Jesus Christ except God could do it. If you destroy men’s lives you are doing the service of Satan, because he is the one who come to steal, to kill, and to destroy “Jn 10:10, but if you save men’s lives, you are doing the service of Jesus Christ because He is the savior of the world/sinners. Jesus Christ saves sinners to Heaven, while Satan kills sinners to hells, the question is, are you doing the service of Satan by sending sinners to hell? Or are you doing the service God by saving sinners to Heaven? Or Are you populating the kingdom of Jesus Christ or not, Oh man of God, the word is coming to you and I today from Rev. 2:1 ¶ Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
Re 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
Re 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
Re 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
Re 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Re 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Re 2:8 ¶ And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive;
Re 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Re 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Re 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
Re 2:12 ¶ And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;
Re 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
Re 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Re 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.
Re 2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
Re 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
Re 2:18 ¶ And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
Re 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
Re 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Re 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Re 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Re 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Re 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
Re 2:25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
Re 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
Re 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
Re 2:28 And I will give him the morning star.
Re 2:29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Re 3:1 ¶ And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
Re 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
Re 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Re 3:4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
Re 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Re 3:6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Re 3:7 ¶ And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Re 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
Re 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Re 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
Re 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

REPENTANCE
“Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand” Mtt. 3:2. This is the beginning of the gospel by John the Baptist “so the people asked him, saying, what shall we do then? John answered and said to them, “He who has two tunic, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him do like wise Lk 3:10.
Repentance is not by only going to church; repentance is not only being a Pastor or Prophet, Evangelist or Teacher. Someone may be a Pastor or a church worker and still not repented, you may ask, how one can become a pastor without repentance. Well, many of us today are church workers without repentance, but this is not supposed to be so, repentance must be first before you became a pastor, otherwise what can you tell the people you will pastor, a pastor must show example. If pastor is not repented, the followers will not repent because a corrupt tree cannot bear good fruit; corrupt tree must bear corrupt fruit while good tree bears good fruit.
People misunderstand this bible quotation, “the gift and the call of God are without repentance” thinking that it is normal to be a pastor without repentance” thinking that it is normal to be a pastor without repentance. The above quoted verse does not mean to remain un-repented and become a pastor.
That verse means, before you are called you are not repented, before you are called your gift is already in you. Before John the Baptist called and preached to the people of Israel, they were not repented. But as soon as you answered the call, you repent from your sins, otherwise Satan will lay hand on you and you become a worker of iniquity/sin. This is the major problem to many men of God today, they are called and giving gift, they work iniquity with their gift and become false prophets. What is iniquity? Iniquity means to be unfair, wrong or lawless, so any Christian, pastor, prophet, preacher etc that works iniquity is false. If you do not love, you are false. If you send evil back to sender, you are false. If you do anything contrary to the commandment and character of Jesus Christ, you are false. Jesus says in Mt 5:39 But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil:
Repent and be converted/turned Acts 3:19.
This is another thing in repentance, for many of us have repented and not converted/or turned to God, some repented and remain where they were, if you repent you must move to God, you don’t say that you have repented and still live in your old sinful life. Many pastors and Christians say they have repented and born again without knowing what and how, I mean they have not searched their heart and themselves to discover what is ungodly in their lives, yes many of them did not commit big sin as I did, like robbery, fraud, occultism etc, but they have some so called little sins like common lies, anger/wrath, malice, back-biting, hatred, greed, envy, unforgivingness etc, these they call common, even some don’t believe that they are sins despite the fact that they read it often in the scripture, “Rm 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Tit 3:3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. Eph 4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
Col 3:8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.. Ga 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as become saints;
Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry.”
You can see in churches, fights and quarrel, wrath and malice, gossip and back-biting among pastors and brothers, these sins they commit often calling themselves born again and repented, and call those outside unbelievers, Jesus Christ said, to believe in me is to keep my commandment, if you can’t keep His commandment you are not a believer and you are the same as those you call unbeliever, after all even demons believe and tremble Jms 2:19.
Because some men of God are not repented truly, this why they find it difficult to preach repentance in the church, one can’t give what he doesn’t have. If you have repented and know what repentance is, you must give it to your people, and you will like every body to repent. Jesus has all these good things, and gives it to you and I, According to the scripture in Mtt. 4:17; “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say Repent; for the kingdom of God is at hand. In Mtt. 9:13B For I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. But today many pastors and Christian are righteous before they come to Christ according to their belief, which is why they don’t see any thing to repent from. My brethren, what is it you have repented of, what is the property of devil you are still having. Do you still get wrath? Repent from it now, do you still fight? Repent now. A man of God said to us in a crusade that he was a fighter before he repented, now he is repented fighting spiritually, and that he still fights physically, that his repentance does not stop him to fight any body who messes him up, you can see that this man of God came into Christianity with his old life “fight and quarrel” because you must quarrel before fighting, had it been that he was a robber like me outside he would have came inside with it. This is why you still find some pastors and brethren fornicate inside the church because they came into Christianity with their worldly property. In one of the churches I attended in South Africa CBM, a senior brother was sleeping with some sisters and their game was up when the prophets of the church came from Nigeria and ordered them to confess their sins openly, the senior brother hardened his heart saying that he was innocent, but the girls were afraid trying to open up, the brother threatened to cast spells on them if they open up, according to one of the girls, they were scared of the brother because he was known as a prophet in the church and he has the power to do it, you see how power intoxicates and deceives. Truly this brother has power but not repented just as you can pray without repentance and still get answers to your prayers. People and men of God are deceived today by the powers signs and wonders they see around themselves and even miracle seekers get deceived by these miracles and powers, seeing the miracle workers sinless even when they disobey any of the Jesus Christ commandment, I refer you to 1Co 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.
The deceived and deceiver shall end up in hell Mtt 24:11, note that when the spirit of leaves a prophet, if he is not careful the evil spirit comes into him still prophesying, according to the scriptures, “the spirit in them is like frog REV 16:13. Let us be careful when we serve God, don’t justify any sin but repent from any sin you commit, are you a fighter, angry, a gossiper, a backbiter, an unforgiving? Etc. ask for forgiveness, repent and turn to God.
You must be born again “Jn 3:7 except one is born again; he cannot see the kingdom of God”, “Jn 3:3. Unless one is born of water and of the Holy Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God”, “Jn. 3:5-6. Nicodemus asked, how a man can be born again, Jesus Christ went ahead answering him in “Jn 3:6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit. vs 7 do not marvel that I said to you, you must be born again, vs 8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the spirit”. Now to be born again is to be born of water and of the spirit. To be born of water means to be baptized and to be baptized is to repent from your sins. Then to be born of the spirit is to be baptized with holy spirit and power which was started at the Pentecost day by Jesus Christ in “Act.2:4, this is also the witness of John the Baptist, that He who comes after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry, He will baptize with Holy spirit and fire” Mtt. 3:11. You may be baptized with water only, I tell you, you are not complete, you must be baptized of the water and of the Holy spirit and fire/power many of us are baptized only with water today without holy spirit and fire, many are even baptized with water at birth when they have not known sin, even if you have been baptized at birth like many of us, you still need to be baptized again with holy spirit so that the Spirit and power of God will rest upon you. People don’t do this, it is why they repent and not converted, “Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord, that they have not turned to God.” In those days many Jews were baptized with water, but when Paul came there he asked them in “Acts 19:2-3 “Did you receive the Holy spirit when you believe? And they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy spirit” vs3 And he said to them “Into what then were you baptized” so they said, “Into John’s baptism” Act 19:4. Then Paul said, “John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus, vs 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Vs 6 And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesized. From this act of Paul and the believers, you see that one needs to be born of the water and of the spirit if you are a believer. So if you are baptized or born again without receiving Holy spirit and fire, and speak in tongues, then you need to ask yourself whether you are truly repented or born again or not. If you are born again, you speak of the spirit, hear the word of the spirit and do the things of the spirit. This is why you must be born again for one who is born of the spirit is spirit, and one who is born of the flesh is flesh. To repent with the baptism of water is to be dead of sin and buried with Christ, and resurrect as a new person with him. Now when this baptism is taking place, you are made new as a new born baby in Christ. To be baptized with Holy Spirit and fire is to be activated, filled or lightened with fire of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit and fire will refine the body. This refining process will manifest all your gifts and make it ready to be used. This happens when one is repented first. Some are baptized with the Holy Spirit before baptism of repentance/water. In a case like this, as it is in Ac 10:1 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,
Ac 10:2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.
Ac 10:3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.
Ac 10:4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.
Ac 10:5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:
Ac 10:7 And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;
Ac 10:8 And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.
Ac 10:9 ¶ On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
Ac 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
Ac 10:14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
Ac 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
Ac 10:17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,
Ac 10:18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
Ac 10:19 ¶ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.
Ac 10:21 Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
Ac 10:22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
Ac 10:23 Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.
Ac 10:24 And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
Ac 10:25 And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
Ac 10:26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
Ac 10:27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
Ac 10:28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
Ac 10:29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
Ac 10:30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
Ac 10:31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
Ac 10:32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.
Ac 10:33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.
Ac 10:34 ¶ Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Ac 10:36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
Ac 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
Ac 10:40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;, there will be first willingness by the repentant, then the Holy spirit will fall upon the person as fire will burn all the negativity in the person. These two baptism are very important in the life of a Christian, but the best and the required thing in the life of every Christian who have had this, is to abide in the righteousness of Jesus Christ which you have received by faith of this baptism, do not go back to your sins again, move on with Him whether good or bad, keep His commandments, always obey the word of the Holy Spirit which is in you, do not quench the fire in you rather add more fuel of righteousness in it, then you will see yourself growing from one level to another. Note that if you disobey the Holy Spirit without regretting and ask for forgiveness, the Holy Spirit will depart from you, and if care is not taking the evil spirit will enter you and all your work becomes iniquity. Even though the power may still remain in you as the devil/evil spirit will take over you and start working like an angel of light, that is deceiving spirit, it will now start telling you different thing with different doctrine as written in 1 Tm 4:1 so my dear brother and sister let us be careful on our born again, do not sin but be fast in confessing and asking for forgiveness so as not to give ways to Satan. This is where Christianity is confused mostly to those men of God who are gifted with gift of powers, when they commit sin and get there powers remain, but for sure one thing must also depart you, which is the glory of God, anybody filled with spirit of God will easily notice it, this thing happens to men of God a lot, they will begin with humility and end up with pride. In those days when I was a thief, in South Africa, most of our pastors had this problem, they will begin with righteousness, but at a point they would join the world and its pleasure, accepting to pray all kind of prayers because of money, prayer of prosperity becomes their objectives instead of salvation. They started praying for robbery, 419/fraud and drug deals, they being ignorant will believe that God is the one answering the prayers without noticing that deceiving spirit has taking over. This thing added more confusion to my Christian life as almost all our pastors were in this system, supporting and encouraging thieves and drug dealers because we pay tithes and sow seeds with offerings, imagine what money can do, so, to those of us who say that they are preaching prosperity instead of salvation, be careful and watch your ways. In one occasion, police raided a church and found cocaine drugs and chemicals use to manufacture drugs, this is what money can cause, which made Paul warns in 1Tm. 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. {Perverse...: or, Gallings one of another}
1Tm. 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
LOVE
The love of God is all purity, Holy and Righteousness, Hope, faith, above all, Salvation.
Jn3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. But he who does not believe is condemned, by his disbelief already.
Do we also love God? This is the question that many of us answer “Yes”. But to you, is it truly “Yes”? If “Yes” are truly been in love with Him.
The next question is, can we today’s Christian loose our life for the sake of Jesus Christ? Although you may claim that you can do it, as almost all Christians claim the quotation of old saints Rev. 12”11 “I have overcome by the blood of lamb and by words of my testimony – and deny the last phrase which says {“I did not love my life to death”) this second phase is not claimed by the Christians of today because it is known to us that no one does not love his life to death, except but a very few of us. The scripture makes us to understand that any one who loves his life more than Jesus Christ and the gospel is not worthy of Him. Today who amongst us can sacrifice his life for the sake of Him and the gospel? Well, many Pastors claim this, but a little trial proves their claim abortive. How many pastors or Christians can see his enemy trying to kill and eventually gained chances of kill his enemy first, in safe defence will not kill his enemy?
Whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it, “Mk 10:29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's”,
Every Christian must keep the commandment of Jesus Christ even if it cost your life, just for the sake of Christ and the gospel’s. if you cannot spare the life of your enemy, or love him, what is the difference between you and the unbelievers (Mt 5:43 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Mt 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Christians of today say that old laws must be brought forward to new testament where as Jesus Christ who we claim to love and serve, speaks in Mtt. 5:31 “You have heard that it was said in the old law” An eye for an eye” you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy:, but I say to you today, love your enemies, bless those who curse you. In the scripture “1 Jn 4.20; If someone says, “I love God and hates his brother, he is a liar, for he who does not love his brother who he has seen, how can he love God who he has not seen? Many Christians today have manufactured patterns of prayer which are contrary to the commandment of Christ, “Prayer of “back to sender and Holy ghost fire to enemies” to their enemy, while Jesus Christ commanded us to bless them that curse us, He also went ahead to show us the example on the cross publicity, praying for His enemies saying “Father forgive them for they do not know what they do” Lk 23:34, even Stephen when he was stoned to death, Act 7:59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
Act 7:60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. You who claim to love God, can you do as Stephen did? Can you pray for someone who is killing you? Then if you say you love God and cannot keep His commandment, are you not a liar? 1Jn 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. All the overcomers (old apostles) went through curses, persecution and death, and these things were done to them by their enemies and they overcome by not taking vengeance whether by spiritual or physical power, of which they were loaded with Angels, Holy ghost and power to save and destroy, but they heard their shepherd and keep His commandments. They believed that Jesus Christ, our Lord and savior is not a destroyer of men’s lives but savior this was why He rebuked James and John in Lk 9:54-56 Read as they were going to a village of Samaria but the people there did not receive Jesus Him, perhaps He was insulted, James and John saw this and angry and said “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them. Just as Elijah did”. Can’t you see, they were still with the spirit of old law which many Christians are still having today. But look at the reaction of Jesus, He turned and rebuked them saying. “you do not know the manner of spirit you are of. “For the son of man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them. Today many men of God and Christians reject this character of Christ and embrace wicked character of Satan. Some will say although they are pastors and Christians but they are not Christ, imagining the statement of a Christian. My pastor argued on this and opened his mouth and said to me “I’m not Jesus Christ” and even many Christians say the same thing today. Then who is a Christian? Being a Christian means to be like Christ, to behave like Christ, to practice the teachings of Christ, then, I say to be a Christian is to be born of Christ”. If you cannot behave like Jesus Christ, you are not a Christian, if you cannot keep the commandment of Christ, you are not a Christian, if you cannot pray for your enemy, bless those who curse you, forgive those who offend you, and hate your mortal body you are not a Christian. To hate your self means to hate and deny yourself/body sinful lusts/desires of this world. When you hate your life and deny it all the lustful desires, then the spirit of God in Christ Jesus dwells in you because by keeping His commandment you are in Him and He in you Jn 14:21. love is the New Commandment Jesus Christ brought to us and this Love perfects all things, He has this love and wants you and I to have it, for the sake of this love He left His throne in Heaven and came to earth to show us the way, the truth and life Jn. 14:6 which Adam the first man who also saw God could not show us, for the sake of this love He lived with man to teach man how to live in this sinful world without committing sin, for the sake of this love He suffered persecutions, trials and temptations both in the hands of Satan and man, He overcame all, just to show us how to go through all these and be overcomers. This is the greatest commandment, that you should love your God with all your heart, mind, soul and straight, that means, with everything in and on you the same is like the first, love your neighbor as you love yourself. If you and I keep this commandment of Jesus Christ, then He will abide in us and we in Him, and we have fulfilled all laws according to 1 cor. 13 “Though I speak with the tongue of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a changing cymbal.
1 cor. 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and I have faith, so that I could remove mountains but have not love, I am nothing.
1 cor. 13:3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
Could you understand the meanings of Paul? Paul means, even if you do all things for this gospel, but have not love, you are like an unbeliever, because the unbelievers do anything you can do on their ways, but an unbeliever cannot love God, nor his neighbor, his enemy or even his friend. But Christ and His believers love every body equal, you can see that because of love Christ came and commandment us to have the same type of love. Christ is love, He was harmed and He never harmed back, so as Christian you may be harmed and you will not harm back. 1 Pt. 2:21-25. if I love you, how can I harm you back when you harmed me. If a man loves his wife, can he not forgive her if she offends him, even without apology. This is what the true love is all about, if I love my fellow human, I will forgive him even when I was not apologized. For Christ forgave us our sins even when we did not know him, He did for us when we have not heard the gospel.
Love fulfills all law (Gal.5:14), if you love God, your neighbor and yourself, you can not commit any offence or sin against Government, neighbor or even your enemy. If someone offends or sin against you, you must forgive him or her, no matter the size of the offence or sin. This is the true love that when they persecute you, pray for them, when they curse you, you bless them, when they behave worldly, you preach gospel to them. You must love all times and in all things, even when they have killed your precious one, child, friend or mother, you cannot change this love to suit your inability or weakness.
Even when they want to kill you, you must love them, for love does not count error, weakness or hatred. This is Christ in all, Christ is love, he came with love, for love, in love and above all He gave us love saying, if you keep my commandment you will abide in my love Jn. 15:10 Many are called preachers, prophets and pastors but have no love, people will be in the house of God cursing their enemies, revising curse “back to senders” even pastors who went to bible studies do the same. In our churches, when ever prayer against enemy is conducted, you see people mentioning names of their enemies, uncles, aunts, mother-in-law and even neighbors, pastors also encourage such prayers, what a witch-craft? Some claim that bible says suffer the witch not to live, yes you are right, bible said so in Exodus 22:18 which is one of the reasons Jesus Christ came, but who is this witch, now read this exodus 22 from 16-31 for better understanding on why it was said; A witch is a greedy person even a sinner, I mean any body who hinders the gospel either by disobedient to God or to man of God, a fornicator, liar, coveter; if you do any of these, you are a witch because you are bewitching the gospel, or are you not born again, I mean true born again? You are a witch, or are a common or fake born again? You are no.1 witch, whether a pastor or a church goer, but a fake born again, you are a fake Christian? A fake born again or Christian is born again, or Christian who does not do as Jesus Christ commanded Christians to do, Jesus Christ says love your enemy, you say no “I will hate my enemy”, Jesus Christ says bless them that curse you, you say no “I will curse those who curse me”. In fact you are not only a fake Christian but you are also an anti-Christ because you change the doctrine of Jesus Christ. If you change the doctrine of Jesus Christ, whether a prophet, pastor, evangelist or even preacher, you are fake and false. Ro 2:17 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make thy boast of God,
Ro 2:18 And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
Ro 2:19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
Ro 2:20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
Ro 2:22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
Ro 2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonors thou God? yes you say and do according to the old law “Thou shall not suffer the witch to live” “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth”, “Love your neighbor and hate your enemy, but Jesus says to you and I today in Mathew 5:38 “You have hear that it was said (in old testament) an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. In Mtt. 5:43 “you have hear that it was said in the old testament you shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy but I say to you today – Mt 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Read from Mtt5:43-48
Why do we revenge? Why are you afraid of evil ones? Is it not because we are evil, living in sin? Is it not because there is no breast plate of righteousness in us. Is it not because we are afraid to die? Yet you claim, you go to heaven, you also say “in my father’s house there are many mansions there. If you truly believe what you preach about heaven why would you be afraid to die by trying to retaliate? Bible makes it clear in 1 Pt. 3:9 do not return evil for evil for evil, in Rm. 12:21 Thess. 5:15 be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. Rm. 12:17 Repay no one evil (read down). Dear Pastor, dear prophet, dear evangelist, dear Christian, there is one good mystery of doing good to your enemy in Rm. 12:20B, I read “for in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head. The next mystery is in Eph 6:10-20 but the point is Eph. 6:14 “stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness. When you mention the commandment of Christ, you become righteous, for without keeping His commandment there shall be no righteous and without righteous no one shall see God. But can one be righteous? Yes Jesus Christ makes anybody who is in Him righteous through His blood, and when you are out of Him you become unrighteous, how can you be in Him or out of Him? It is very simple, to keep His commandment and believe in Him is to be righteous, while to brake His commandment is to be unrighteous whether you believe in Him and do not keep His commandment, and even Satan believes and trembles Jms. 2:19.
This righteousness is stated clearly is Rm 3:21 to 26 Read down. People misunderstand and misinterpret bible by preaching that no one is righteous today quoting Rm. 3:9 to 19 Read down, even in 1Jn3:7 Little Children do not be deceived, any one who practices righteousness is righteous”. In Rm. 3:9 to 19 Read down, You can see that Paul is talking about the Israelites who claim to be righteous by the deed of law in Rm. 3:9 and in Rm. 3:21 to 26 he explains how we gentiles and Jews are made righteous by faith in Christ. So my brother if you work things right with faith in Christ Jesus you are righteous. 1 Jn. 3:7. People are righteous, and I pray that we will remain in righteousness of Jesus Christ till when Christ will rapture us, I don’t boast to be righteousness on my own but my prayer is that my Lord Jesus Christ will keep me in His righteousness until the end, My dear let this be your prayer; according to Mtt. 6:33 “Seek you first kingdom of God and His righteousness and every other things shall be added unto you “seek first the kingdom of God”, “Seek 2nd the righteousness of Christ” “And every other things shall be added unto you” In Obadiah 17 But on mount Zion there shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness: The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
