PRACTISE THE WORD OF
GOD
Brethren. this IS a Happy
New Year. It is not time to only listen
and hear the word of God. 11 is
also not time to teach and learn the
word of God Rather it is time to
practise the word of God. Jesus
Christ and all the Prophets preached
the word of God. For how long will
this preaching last?
This is the message I have
for you today. Though it is not a
lengthy one, we should start off with
vegetarianism and fruitarianism for
we are they that worship God in Spirit
and in Truth. VVe should no longer
waste our time in cultivating the
fields rather let uS be the practitioners
of tile word of God so that it might be
well with us.
Read James: 1 :19 -

It is popularly acknowledged
that action speaks louder than
I believe you have witnessed
what is happening now. In times
past, 1 used to preach for ten hours
but now I am no more into prolonged
preachment. Everyday I give
references and you are being
referred to various portions of the
Scripture. Who has practised any of
it? If I ask that the money accruing
from appreciation should be counted,
you will be surprised The hall is
ftlled with people but If you count the
money realised you would be forced
to give everybody a knock.
Whom are you deceiving?
We have left the ol.d world into the
new world which everyone anxiously
requested fOI. Man feared whether
he would survive Into the new world.

Let everyone Irorn now
vegetarianism and
fruitananism. When you come here
and give unto one brother N10,000,
give N1,000 to another and N20,OOO
to another, what is the essence of
your action?
ACCEPT SELFLESS SERVICE:
Now, a lot of people here
dupes; they only come here to
receive money, claiming to use it to
do the work of God, yet they divert
it into their private business. Is that
the work of God you clarm you want
to dO'1 Is the work. of God not done
free of charge so that people wltness

I directed Brother Okpalla
William that Brotherhood in Anambra
State is not quite up to par. That, he
should arrange for some children of
God to stay there to ensure the
growth and strength of Brotberhood .in
that area. In Mkpani, a certam
Brother a building to the
Father, I instructed Brother Odum .to
complete every renovation required
in trle place and establish a Bethel,
take the Children of God there to take
over the entire area and ensure
practical presence of B.C.S. Just as
activities are on in 26 Mbukpa, the
same should continue in ttlese
places.
GOD PROVIDES FOR HIS
SERVICES
God has given us enQugh
resources for HIS services. We
stlould not allow 1hem to remain idle
God's work is purely philanthropic
and humenlt;:Hian, No profil IS
expected My JOY IS the JOY 01
service In tlelping others If rnost of
the feats done In favour of
Brotherhood members were done in
favour of the outside world, the world
would have long beheld the glory of
God, and wonderful works of
testimonies would follow. You might
assume power tomorrow and forget
to put the word of God into practice
and because of that you begin to
encounter problems Christ had
warned that man who gol cleansed
after being immersed In Bethsaida
River not 10 indulge in further sin so
that greater problem might not befall
him. Is that not exactly what you are
doing now? When you come here
and your problems are taken away,
you return to your old life. You
indulge in Ule sins you forsook. For
tllis reason severer' problems and
afflictions come your way You will
then begin to look for money to help
yourself. Tilat is why if anyone
comes here and seeks to be a real
Brotherhood and serve God, such a
one should understand that this calls
for self sacrifice in the interest of
others.
You can take a cue from me
My work is to make humanity refrain
from sins as well as transform an evil
doer. This indeed is the greatest
task. How many people can
transform an eVil doer? There is no
one, not even the white can do it
I preach constantly that
people should refrain from stealing
but none of you has hearkened to it.
You insist that the Father should
continue with it for today is a great
, day.
How great is it? If you refuse
to practise it. then tell me what
makes it a great day? Look at all
these people. They come here,
every mornlflg. afternoon and
evening, and receive God's word but
refuse to practise them Did the
F ather not C()1'Tle to 1ra nst orm man?
SUite Ct1lldren of GO(j are ttlose
willing to work Wlttl me I will usc Ulelll
too. There in Blakpan, tlow many
children of God are there? They are
only 4 yet Since incept ion of
Brotherhood, the only thing the
members know is to go to Biakpan on
pilgrimage just to bath in the
'Bethsaida' stream Nothing was
known about Brotherhood in Biakpan
until 1995 when it pleased the Father
to take the 144,000 Vilgins \nere to
render services to people .. Have you
not seen how things are going on
there now? Some of them are now
children of God. The problem most
of you who claim to be healers have
is that you might Ilave twenty vanous
slcknesses and ;n;;ny other prot)lems
besetting you. yet you come out here
and profess you are a healer and
pretend to heal some 01her person's
illness. What about yours; wtlat 11ave
you done to heal yourself?
NO GREENER
You might be indebted 10
people. have a lot of dependents
r
yet you come to serve God. What
time do you have for his
services? I require no mor'e
preaching. All I want now are
practitioners of the gospel. Whether
they are three or four that are willing
to serve God, I am okay with that.
All those who come here for
greener pastures should try
somewhere else. There is no room
for them. Those that are willing to
serve and have surrendered
completely unto God should
continue. You practise the word of
God in an eptle,p1ic manner. This IS
not allowed 'here. What gains have
you made over the years with this
attitude? Those who serve God in
spirit and in truth must not mix with
those who serve themselves. That is
why I want those who serve God to
live separately so that they can have

tendencies. Let go all those things,
so that all might be at peace. I had
told a certain Sister to indulge no
more in fornication or else something
will happen to her, she ignored and
went back and fornicated. Truely
something happened, she died. Did
you not hear about it? People came
here and pleaded with me to
withdraw the statement, I ignored them
and warned them not to indulge in
. fornication Oh! so you enjoy to
'fornicate, thinking God cannot do
'anything or . God has no power.
, Annanias and his wife died because
of lies. Was that not the spirit of God
doing that? God requires not anythfng
evil and so if anyone brings evil near
you, such a person will have himself
to blame.
Now every one of you,
wherever things are difficult, wheQ
you just step into that place, things
. will change immediately. Reca" whqlt
happened at Ibandan. Ydu aU know
those you regard to be strong.
Let my peace and blessings

forever more. Amen.
Thank You Father.
