We thank God for tonight. We thank God for another time when we can come together in the name of Jesus, all being molded, united into one; being formed into one being, one person, one mind, one desire, one intention. Hallelujah. Whenever we have another desire, another intention, whether it be to exalt self, or to do something that is of human desire, to foster human plans, to make humanity rise above God – whenever we do that, we break the union. We break the union. Whether you come to church or not, there is a union there with you. There is a union that God has that reaches out and brings people in, by their hearts. It has no barriers. There is nothing that can stop us or that can stop it. The union of God’s Spirit, the power of God’s Blood, is making us one, because we have yielded to Him to be one. Hallelujah. Amen.
I just got the sad news that Sister Chizoba died suddenly. We were expecting her to be at the wedding. She was one of the doctors that grew up with us in Choba, Nigeria, with Sisters Ona and Florence and the others. Sister Florence was here at the wedding. She and Sister Ona were both in the same class together when God sent us down to Nigeria to preach to them, and they heartily accepted the Word of God. Sister Chizoba was working in the health department in Washington, D.C., and we understand that she caught pneumonia and in three days she was dead. We just thank God that she is in heaven. Amen. Thank God she is in heaven. Amen.
It is a lesson for us to learn. There was a time back there in the beginning when she came to a point when her life would turn either this way or that way, and God sent Brother Burt and myself to her. Brother Burt prophesied to her what the perfect will of God was, and she chose the other way, and her life went through a very terrible, deep suffering. We were with her all those years, through her suffering, and God has just taken her home. She was a young person, about the age of Sister Ona, but God took her, and we are praising Him. We are praising Him. We know that she is at peace, and she is at rest. Hallelujah.
We must pray for her children, and if it is necessary, we must be willing to take them and to strengthen them, lift them up and grow them up. That is what the Body of Christ is like, and that is what we have to come to. No longer can we be hands off, for the responsibility is ours. We are responsible for each other. You know the song we sing, “When the union forms that cannot be disjoined, we are made visible, the Body of the LORD.” Hallelujah. We thank God.
You know, last night I could see death as part of our walk. Amen. If we can’t walk in life as the Body of Christ, we are being told that to be home with the Lord Jesus, we will be happy, and the work of God will go on. No longer is God going to allow people to go by the name of Christ and walk in their own way. We are not talking about sin. We are not talking about going out there and committing some sin. We are just talking about your own pretty way. Just walking in your own way. Hallelujah.
Paul said, For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many (die) sleep because they discernnot the Body of Christ (I Corinthians11:30). What a price to pay for blindness,for not being able to discern theBody of Christ. God says you die. Youknow that in the Body, the Spirit of
Christ is the spirit of prophecy. Did you hear that? The spirit of prophecy is the Spirit of Christ, and prophecy is in the midst of the Body. One poor little girl came and said, “I had a dream.” Prophecy. Poor little boy comes and says, “I had a dream.” Prophecy. “You know, I saw a vision of so and so.” Prophecy.
I didn’t sleep well all last night; I slept and waked, slept and waked. But right before me, all night, I was in Washington, D.C. I had something to do there, and so and so. I went into this office, and there were two desks that boxed me in. I said to a man at one of the desks, “Sir, can I please step over your desk to come out of here, because I have something that I must do?” He said, “No. You come between,” and he made way for me to go between the desks. I mean, God will do things like that and you don’t know why. Why was I in Washington, D.C.? Because Chizoba was dying. Amen. Praise be to God.
I believe God with all of my heart. Hallelujah. Turn to Zechariah and let us hear what God is saying in Zechariah. You know, I had received this passage to bring to you. Personally, I don’t know too much what it means, but I am supposed to bring this passage to you, and bring the situation before you that God shows me. When I was with Brother Wayne this evening, he started asking me about Zechariah, about this same chapter. I said, “Boy, you know, that is what I am going to preach tonight.” He said, “Well, I will wait.” Well, brother, the joke about it is that I am also waiting. (laughter) Amen. Let us look at Zechariah 5:1, Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll. 2And h e said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. What do you know in the Word of God that is twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide? The tabernacle. Amen. In the illustration of the tabernacle, there is the gospel of Jesus Christ. Amen. You could almost laugh. Sometimes I laugh at scripture. They just tickle me. Amen. Hear this now, verse 3, Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
The greatest blessing that God has put in the human realm has become a curse in the house of the thief. (chuckle) Amen. You know, the amazing thing about it is, we have a time we call the “Dark Ages” when the Word of God was actually hidden down in the basement of the Vatican. The Vatican had the Bible hidden down in a vault there, and nobody could get to it except Martin Luther, who God made go down in the basement there and get it. Amen. He had to be a “good” Catholic priest to get it. Amen. He did the job that he should do and then he backslid into his Catholicism.
Forgive me, brethren. Martin Luther, the man who gave us this revelation of justification by faith, killed 100,000 Christians because he did not discern the Body of Christ. All he could see was his own revelation. He did not discern the Body, so when the Anabaptists came with the revelation of baptism, he did not comprehend the word of God. Remember what the roll mentioned in verse 2 and how it represents the Tabernacle. If you are going to enter into the Holy Place, you have to go through baptism. So, he was in the outer court in which there was the altar of sacrifice which says, “justified by faith, we have peace with God” (Romans 5:1). Amen. Martin Luther saw all that, but he did not see the making of the covenant with God in baptism, and he did not see that baptism has three parts.
You know, last night I religiously preached two baptisms; everybody said, “Amen,” but nobody asked about the third. That is good. That is good because that is what we have to talk about tonight. You have to understand, that it is what is in the roll that is in the house of the thief that is going to kill him. Amen. Did I finish reading that? Let me read it for you.
Zechariah 5:4, I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof. So, the flying roll is God’s Word, God’s ways,God’s secrets, and God’s plan. It went into the houseof the thief – the Catholic Church stole it, andthey killed many people to get it. They stoleit from all the apostles and the brethren,and then they hid it. But Praise be toGod, they preserved it. (laughter) Theypreserved it till God could send His mandown in there to get it, bring it out andgive it to us. In that roll were the secrets ofGod, but you had to go through death in order togo into the secrets of that roll. In the operation of the tabernacle,when the priest went into the Holy Place, he hadto symbolically go through the processes of death. Hewould wash his hands, and that was a form of baptism inwater, and you could not enter through that door unlessthe Spirit of God took you through that door. To go throughthe door, therefore, you had to have the baptism of theHoly Ghost, and baptism means “immersion” or “beingcovered over with.” So, when a man is baptized and hegoes down into the water, he comes up and every inch ofhim is wet, because that is what baptism is. He is covered,like the anointing oil would cover you. And as he wascovered completely over from head to foot, then he wasprepared to go in through the door, which is Christ. Youcannot go into Christ with self! You cannot go into Christwith your own desires!
Therefore, we get some of these Pentecostal preachers who feel they have the gift of imparting the Holy Ghost. I remember one of them coming to Jamaica and he was going to give the baptism of the Holy Ghost to everybody who wanted it. So, my brother sat down there in the congregation, waiting for the baptism of the Holy Ghost. He didn’t believe in what they were doing. He wanted this baptism of the Holy Ghost because he had heard that it was something that they had been giving away. So the guy came and put his hand on him. He said, “Brother! Say ‘shalaba’.” My brother said, “Shalabababa.” He said, “Shalaba, shalaba, shalaba.” My brother said, “Shalaba, shalaba.” He said, “You’ve got it.” Hallelujah! The house of the thief. So, the thief was not only in Rome, but the thief was in our Pentecostal movement, with some who believed that they could get God by subterfuge or by some method. “Let us use a method to get God.” Amen.
Then, there was another way, a mental exercise that could get God for you. You could listen to people speak in tongues, “balabalabala…” and it would be planted in your mind. Hhmm? Then when you feel good, you just speak what you heard, and you’ll be speaking in tongues. We came to call it the Tongues Movement. It was just getting your tongue exercised rather than getting the Spirit of the Living God within you. Amen. What we found was that a lot of things started going wrong, because after you got that thing they call the baptism of the Holy Ghost, you were baptized into their church and you ended up having to obey their pastor. You had to do what the pastor said, you no longer belonged to God, because now you belonged to this church. “OH, you are a MEMBER of this church, and you have to obey the pastor.” Hallelujah.
Hear what the Bible said. The roll is coming upon us again. The roll said, “How can they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach except they are sent? And how can they be sent if God didn’t send them?” (Romans 10:14-15). So, what they did was to form a presbytery. “Let us form a presbytery, and let us train these young people and let us send them out…” What happened? The pastor took the place where God should be, and the presbytery was the council of heaven, and they began to send men out to preach. “But woe be unto you if you preach anything besides what I tell you to preach.” You have to preach what the church tells you to preach, or else, OUT YOU GO!
I was in a Pentecostal church, pastoring a church in Falmouth, Jamaica. The Lord came to me and said, “I want you to go to that church down the street and have a revival down there.” In other words, the rustling of the mulberry bushes was down there. “You go down there, and there will be a revival.” So I went to Sister So-and-So, (I’m not calling names), and I said, “The Lord told me to come to this church and to preach for a week.” And she said, “Oh, praise God!” She was delighted. Help was coming. I went down there and preached, and boy, the flood gates were opened. A lot of young people were saved. At the end of the week we had a baptism in water, and they were baptized. I went back up to my church on Sunday, and I was called up by headquarters. “What have you done? How many souls did you get saved?” “We baptized about twenty or thirty.” “How many were added to the church?” “I don’t know.” MAN! They finally got rid of me! As a matter of fact, the final straw that broke the camel’s back – did you know it really is one straw that breaks the camel’s back? Well, the final straw that broke the camel’s back was that I was called one Sunday morning to go to one of their churches to preach. Now, I did not know that it was a special meeting. I just said, “Well, I am invited to go preach, so I will go and preach.” Some of you love to preach in outer court churches, so I’ll tell you about it. I went there and sat down on the platform. Now, God doesn’t care where you are. If He wants you to say something to people, He is going to make you say it. So, I heard a groan behind me. When I looked, nobody was there, but the voice of God spoke, and He said, “(groan) My house is a house of prayer.” Hhmm? That is all He said. He groaned – I can tell you that I heard God groan. Have you ever heard God groan? Well, I heard God groan. Immediately after He said that – I didn’t have time to think – the pastor came right up and said, “Brother duCille, we want you to give the message.” What message am I going to give? He said, “The message.” To me, the message was the one I received. So I said, “MY HOUSE IS A HOUSE OF PRAYER, AND YOU HAVE MADE IT A DEN OF THIEVES.” The house of the thief. The flying roll came into the house of the thief, and it was going to wreck the house and take it down timber by timber. Well, that message alone earned me the BOOT. Yes, sir.
I was called up and the district pastor and the bishop came together and they said, “We understand that you had a conspiracy with some of the people of the church, and that you came up there specially to destroy the man’s harvest festival.” I said, “What? I did not know there was a harvest festival.” They said, “Yes. They had all the goods from the fields in the downstairs.” Amen. They said, “You knew it was the harvest festival, and you knew that there was a contention with some of the brethren, because the very scripture that you brought was the very scripture that someone prophesied in the church against the pastor.” Ye have made it a den of thieves (Matthew 21:13)! They said, “You well knew, and we are stopping you from going into any more of our churches. Don’t you ever enter into a Church of God anymore!” (chuckle) That was the blessing that I needed. I got the BOOT and, of course, the rest of the story was God.
But we are talking about the house of the thief. You know, people take the gospel and they use it to make money, to get prestige, to exalt themselves, to propound their ideas. So, we have a mess out there, but that mess is entirely different from those who are moving in the scroll. In the scroll, you have baptism in the Holy Ghost and baptism into Christ. Last night I read a passage from Hebrews 6, a very terrible passage because it spoke that it would be impossible for some people to be saved anymore because they had rejected the Holy Ghost. Then I went further to say that even the people I know who have backslidden have not rejected the Holy Spirit that was in them; the Holy Spirit remains there to bring them back. If the Holy Spirit leaves you, you are finished. Amen. You know, the Lord looked at Judas and said, “It were better for him never to have been born” (Mark 14:21). It was better if he was in the modern time and they aborted him. Oh yes, it would have been better if he had never been born than to have been born as Judas, the betrayer.
The Lord God is speaking to us here about something. Before I move on, I want to make sure you understand that the flying roll that is in the house of the thief is also in you. Amen. You have to be careful of what you have received, because it will kill you. Yes, it can kill you. It can destroy you, because when the Spirit of God comes into the temple of God, the Spirit of God wants the temple of God to obey the Spirit of God. Hallelujah! And if you, the temple of God, refuse to obey God, your prosperity will be destroyed. You will not be prosperous, you will not be victorious in life, because the intention of God is that you obey the Holy Spirit.
If you see two men fighting over there, you know that it is possible that both of them have the same spirit. They are fighting. But when you see two Christians fighting, what do you know? They do not have the right spirit. They do not have the Holy Ghost. OR, they have the Holy Ghost and they have overcome the Holy Ghost and put Him to one side in order to fight their brother. You cannot continue to disobey the Spirit of God, because do you know what God is saying now? God is saying it is NOW at this time that we have to obey. He was saying it long ago, but right now He is going to enforce it.
You understand? God was saying this long ago, but He is enforcing it now. He is saying, “Father, it is My prayer that they may be one, even as You and I are one.” Amen. Be one, even as You, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, are ONE. Oh, my God, what a tall order. It is a tall order. God wants me to be one with you like how God and Jesus are one. Do you know what Jesus said? “I in you and you in Me, and us (we) in the Father.” I in you, you in Me, we in Father (John 17:21). That is the HOLY ONENESS that Jesus Christ DIED to produce.
He said He would bring a great tribulation on the earth, and the intention of the tribulation is to mold the people of God into one. The word that came to us is “smelt.” Do you know what it means to smelt something? You take two pieces of iron and fuse them together by fire. Amen. God wants us to be one, and brother, sister, Cecil, is not going to stop Him from being one with His Body. He gave us wives, husbands, so we would know what oneness means. He gave us children. You look at the child and it is your flesh and blood. Amen. You are not going to forsake him. You have a certain feeling toward the child, that he is a child of your own body. God knew that that was going to teach you what being one is like. Hallelujah.
Yes! When you look at your brother or your sister, you say, “Father God, Your Blood was shed for that one. Although he is behaving bad; although she is behaving bad, the Blood of Jesus Christ was shed for her; was shed for him. And Father, I will do good to that person. I will do good to that brother or that sister, though they kill me, I will do good to them, because they are YOUR children; My Father’s children.” Same Blood!
Zechariah 5:5, Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. He is giving you anotherpicture now. 6And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. 7And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. Hhmm? Mysterious,isn’t it? 8And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. 9Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, (that is three women now) and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven. 10Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah? 11And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base.
What kind of a thing are we reading about? We are reading about three women. I tell you what, the first woman in the basket with the lead on top of her was Islam. One woman was the Roman Church, and the other woman is the Protestant church. THE PROTESTANT CHURCH. These two churches joined with the Islamic church, and they are going to plant it in the midst of Islam, in Iraq, Shinar. Yes, where Babylon was. What are we looking at? We are looking at the picture of the end-time. I don’t know if you noticed that the pope wears a mitre? Turn it upside down; it is like a bushel basket. Amen. But I also see the Anglican Lord Bishop wearing the same thing.
Brethren, did you know that Islam came out of Christianity? Out of Catholicism. Yes. It was the Catholic Church that formed Islam with Mohammed, and gave him a Catholic woman to marry, Khadijah. They named a town in Portugal after his daughter, Fatima, and used it, said that the Virgin Mary appeared there, to bring Catholicism and Islam closer together. Mohammed married a Catholic woman, and he was supposed to be the right arm of Catholicism to do all the dirty work. But when they got Jerusalem, they kept it for themselves. Amen. And the Mosque of Omar is sitting right on top of the stone of Abraham, the stone where Abraham offered Isaac. It was over this stone that the temple in Jerusalem was built. You say, “Oh man, that is terrible.” But it is the wonderful works of God. Why? Because the Jews cannot build another temple. Hallelujah! What a God we serve! I think God just sits down and laughs sometimes at man’s ignorance. Amen.
I remember the time when the Protestant Church was collecting money to build the temple of Jerusalem. Have you ever been involved with anybody like that? There were people, Protestants, collecting money to build a temple in Jerusalem. Why? Because they say that the scriptures say that He will appear in the temple. Is that right? How can you miss God? How can you miss God so badly? Yes, they are right! JESUS CHRIST IS GOING TO APPEAR IN HIS TEMPLE, but they were looking at the wrong temple!
The first temple that was made was called the tabernacle and it was built by Moses. It was there where God appeared in the Holy of Holies. The second temple was built by Solomon; God appeared in the Holy of Holies. As a matter of fact, God lighted the fire Himself in the dedication of that temple. Amen. The third temple in Jewish theology is said to be Israel, and they are right. BUT, Israel is the Body of Christ. That is the Son of God. In other words, God rejected the ancient Israel, and the Israel of God is all that are in Christ. Hear me now. If you are a Jew, do not feel bad. God did not reject you. Israel now is Jew and Gentile who are in Christ. Are you there? So, the new Israel is no longer those who occupy Palestine, but the Palestine of God is the Body of Christ – Jew or Gentile; black or white; Chinese or African – God Almighty is bringing His whole business to a close. It is wonderful. Paul describes it beautifully.
So, now we see the picture that Zechariah saw. Poor Brother Zechariah, he did not know what he was seeing. God just used him to write this down for us, but he did not know what he was seeing. Here it is, the Protestant and the Catholic Church joined together to build Islam. The scripture tells us that out of the Euphrates will come four spirits of destruction. Let me read it for you, because you might think that sometimes I just say these things. It is wonderful that I get to Revelation so early. You know, when I get to Revelation it means that I am going to close. Revelation 9:13, And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14Saying to the sixth angel…
Let us go back over it. The sixth angel sounded, but the voice came from the fifth station; the golden altar. Hear me now, brethren. Please be with me. The voice of God came out of the golden altar. Now, what is the golden altar to us? It is the offering of the soul. Now, God cannot, will not, destroy the earth, or let loose the force of Satan until we are sealed in the forehead. That means, not until our souls are laid down on the altar of sacrifice before God, for that sacrifice must be made before you can go into the Holy of Holies. Now, what is the Holy of Holies? If the Holy Place is the mind, the Holy of Holies is the spirit. There are many, many different meanings, you know.
Moses went before Pharaoh, and Moses said, “Well, God, what am I going to tell Pharaoh that Your name is Who sent me?” God said, “Tell Pharaoh, HAYAH, HAYAH.” Amen. Pharaoh never heard a name like that before in his life. So Pharaoh said, “Who sent you?” He said, “HAYAH HAYAH.” “I AM I AM.” That is it. “I AM I AM.”
So, the fifth angel, the fifth station in the scroll we are talking about in the tabernacle is the golden altar of incense, where the incense is the prayers of the saints that go up to God, the essence of you, the essence of humanity that goes up to God in prayer. Amen. I don’t think we have experienced prayer. I don’t think we have yet experienced what prayer really is, because when the soul is lifted up, you are no longer you. You enter into an ecstatic state of the Spirit, wherein the body becomes a total servant. If you tell the body to fly, at that time, the body will fly. Amen. This is what God is saying – that that body you have, He wants it. He wants your body. He wants to come in, but He cannot come in unless you open the door AND THE DOOR IS YOUR MIND. Amen. When you learn to offer up the essence before God, you leave the natural, and you enter into the supernatural. This, then, is the voice that the world is waiting for – THE VOICE OF THE CHURCH ENTERING INTO GOD. Let me show you again. Hold that passage there. Go with me to the 7th chapter. Revelation 7:1, And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2And I saw another angel ascending… Angels generally descend from heavenly places. This angel is coming up from the earth. Amen. …from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
How could an angel call himself “we”? He is talking about the many membered body of Christ, the many membered ministry of Christ to seal the minds of the people of God – that is why he said in their foreheads. Then you go back to Revelation 9, and you see, 15And the four angels were loosed… Okay, we just read of the four angels being bound. Are you with me? They were bound by one angel saying, “Don’t you move. Do not touch the earth – the carnal man. Do not touch the sea – the nations. Do not touch the trees – the Christians. Do not touch the grass – the low little ones – UNTIL we have sealed. We have a job to do.” “And how shall they go, without being sent?” They are a sent people who are to seal the servants of God in their foreheads.
Now, brethren, God put His glory upon you, gave you gifts in the Spirit, and you go fooling around with other things, quarreling with one another, then YOU ARE CRAZY! YOU ARE DEMENTED! YOU ARE NOT THINKING RIGHT! You have been given the greatest calling that human beings have ever had on earth – the calling to be messengers, angels of the Living God. Amen. IF YOU DO SOMETHING ELSE, YOU REJECT THE CALLING AUTOMATICALLY. Amen. Now, let us see if we can put them together here. It says here that “the four angels were loosed ”. We just read of them being bound. Now they are loosed. 15…which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
Revelation 9:16, And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. That is 200 million. 17And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and so and so and so… Turn to chapter 16, and you will see it here. Revelation 16:12, And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Amen. And it went on to say Armageddon. 16And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
So, the 200 million men in chapter 9 is the army that got their orders to be loosed. But then, there is another loosing now of the spirits. In other words, when God gives a spirit an order, that is an order that is never taken back. It is never taken back and they keep on until they complete what they have been given to do – until they are stopped. Amen. They can only be stopped by another spirit, by the Spirit of God, working in the church, in the body of Christ. God is preparing US to STOP THEM.
There is an example that I want to give you. I’m just trying to remember it, where God gave an order to one to do so and so, and then He gave the other one the order to stop him. In other words, we are being given the power to stop Satan. Amen. Satan is being given the power to be loosed to go on to do his thing. If you believe he is going to do it one time, you make a sad mistake. He is going to do it and do it and do it until you stop him.
If you will notice, it is referenced to the river Euphrates here. In chapter 9 it is referenced to the river Euphrates again. It is talking about Islam and the talent of lead put over that woman is going to be removed, and the woman is going to let loose.
Right now we have men in our Congress that are working with the terrorists. We call them terrorists. We have men in the United States who are working with the terrorists. They do not know what they are doing. They are helping the nations to come to Armageddon.
I do not know if you remember that I put out a study of Armageddon. It was one of The Omega Messages. It was a thorough study of Armageddon, and the shocking surprise is that most of the mighty men of those days died in that little place that they call Megiddo, in Israel. It is from that the name of Armageddon comes. What God is trying to show us is that there is a destruction coming from Islam; that they now have the authority to bring the world into destruction. Did you hear me?
I do not want to live in New York City. I would keep as far from New York City as possible. Do you hear me? I do not want to be in Chicago, either. There are many places that already have the stamp of doom upon them. Do you believe it, brethren? The demons have already told the people exactly where they will attack, where they will be doomed. Some of us are moving right into the path of Satan, where he is coming. GOD ALMIGHTY ALONE IS GOING TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE. I hope you wake up before it is too late. For all the money and things that you have, we should all be investing into God’s business now, doing what God is wanting done. Amen. Amen.
I believe God is going to bring us together into places where we can be self-supporting. These lights are being supported by the world. The world, the flesh and the devil, you know the company that the world has – the flesh and the devil. These lights are being supported by the world. The air conditioning is being supported by the world. The fans are being supported by the world. Amen. If they shut off that now, we would have to stop the service. We don’t have any auxiliary light here. We are so comfortable in the world. I am telling you that God is saying that the hour is close at hand when we will not be supported by the world anymore, for the world is going to lose it’s hold. Amen. I want you to understand that we are not here to frighten you. We are here to alert you.
I was praying about a third verse for that song, “My heart is sighing, crying,” and I heard, “I hear the trumpet calling, It’s the midnight hour, And the leaves are falling, I must seek my bower.” Amen. The hour when we should be moving into God’s holy order IS AT HAND! You do not believe our prophets. Right? Why are we here? Ask Brother Peter whose land this is. How did we get here? Amen. The Word of God, the prophetic Word of God, says that this land should be a refuge, a place of refuge, where the Holy Ghost will put a barrier around it to deliver His people. Amen.
We have sat down here for years, comfortable, having church. Amen. Well, we are having a last chance, and if you do not do what God wants you to do now, God will let you go. Amen. Because He says that you will have the same destiny and destruction as the sinners if you do not move as God wants you to move.
Tonight I spoke to you about Sister Chizoba and I think somebody feels bad about my speaking about our dear sister, but praise God, she is in heaven. That is the greatest thing. You know, Shakespeare said, “There is a tide in the affairs of men, when taken at the ebb leads to prosperity.” She came to the crossroad and God sent a messenger to prophesy to her. Hallelujah! She said, “No.” She had made up her mind. She had her way going. We watched her over the years and we suffered with her. We didn’t reject her. We suffered with her! Hallelujah. But God saw that she couldn’t make it – that physically, she wasn’t going to be able to make it.
Do you know what God is saying about YOU? Do you know that we need to take the path that God wants us to take? We need to marry the person who God wants us to marry. It is not just any two Christians who can go and marry up. God is creating a nation of people. Amen. And God is in the midst of it doing this thing. We are with God. We must work with God. We must go with Him. Hallelujah. Glory to God. Amen. Hallelujah.
You know, I am just wondering if I should go any further. Let’s see if we can concentrate on this. The flying scroll has come into our house and it is for good. Amen. But it is going to destroy the timber. You notice it deliberately said it destroyed wood? WOOD is FLESH! All of the carnality that we have been encouraging in our lives, God Almighty is saying to us “GIVE UP THE CARNALITY.” Let us stop worshipping the timber, the flesh, the stone, the earth.
We are now being heralded. There is a trumpet blowing. Amen. The trumpet that is blowing is saying, “Come, hide for a while in the Holy of Holies, until we finish the work.” Remember Isaiah 26? Let’s get it. Isaiah 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and (HIDE) shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. 21For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
Amen.
