Face To Face
With
The Almighty God

The Man Who Saw God Face To Face

The Father And I Are One.


Before I sought for perfection.
Now, I have attained perfection,
     not by power nor by might,
     but by the perfect spirit of my Father.
Also, I so much desired to find God,
     and I found Him face to face
     when and where I never expected to see Him.

My concern now is the Children of God,
     many whom do not even know what they are
     or how much God loves each and everyone of us.

I was alarmed to discover that humanity
     do not love God,
     and that they have no time for God,
     despite multitudes of religions,
     which are nothing but the multiplicity of idolatry.

Already,
     the Father has bestowed on me so many precious gifts.
I have drank the everlasting wine.

The Lord On House To House Visitations
         The Lord came down. He was visiting the houses, one by one. In each compoud, He would start rebuking about iniquities: murder, cheating, stealing, adultery, man’s inhumanity to man, ancestral abominations, uncleanliness, etc. So He rebuked without ceasing. But, the moment I poured the blood of Jesus all over the compound, He would stop rebuking.
         We went from house to house. And in each compound, the same thing happened.
         Therefore, I say, “Every household should call for family prayers, deliverance and spiritual works. This is both good and compulsory. The same is true of every house, office, school, church, company, establishment, etc, irrespective of what religion they believe in or attend. The lands must be purified from sins, evils and abominations.”

My Personal Encounter With God As A Double Personality
         One day, in spirit, God came down form heaven. He came as a double personality. One person, as a man, was very tall and huge, moving forward. He was so tall and huge that His height reached the sky. Yet, everyone was seeing Him as if His height were like that of an ordinary man. The second, exactly like the first, followed behind. People were trooping behind and around Them (Him).
         God asked me to sing praises to Him. It happened that my clothes were in loose form, like that of a person just waking up from sleep. I started adjusting the clothes in order to sing praises to Him. But then, the clothes adjusted themselves on my body.
         My intention was to walk on the ground, while I sing songs of praises. Instead, the Holy Spirit lifted me up. I was moving in the air, high above human height, while I sang praises to God.
         It was great.
         It was glorious.
         It was wonderful.
         No human being is able to sing worthwhile songs of praises to God, except the Holy Spirit ennobles, empowers and inspires him to do so.

My Personal Encounter On The Day I Saw God's Crown
         One day, while in spirit, I saw a glorious crown. It was God's own crown. The crown was so big that it filled the sky and horizon.

My Personal Encounter With God As God Of Perfection
         With my two eyes, I saw the Almighty God, the God of Perfection. He appeared in a white flowing garment, which was pure white, perfectly white, and sparkling white, and yet convenient to the eyes. He was completely untainted (unaffected) by the evils of this world. He was radiant with perfection, with His heart and countenannce both full of delight and satisfaction.

My Personal Encounter With God As The Living God
         He appeared as a Spirit, the Supreme Being. He was new, full of life and very lively, more youthful than the young, and more agile than the agile. Yet, ancient but having the newness that surpasses that of the new.

My Personal Encounter With God As God Of Simplicity
         His appearance was very simple, and yet incomparably best. His simple white flowing garment was far more beautiful than the decorations of the best fashion designer. I now remember and understand what Jesus said, "In all his glories, Solomon was not arrayed more than the lilies."

My Personal Encounter With God As The Creator
         We live in two-fold world. A world in which the physical and spiritual sides of life seem to merge into one. That is why you notice that before a spiritual encounter will take place, one thing or other will lead to the manifestation.
         In spirit, I became transformed into the nature of God. The spirit lifted me up, and I was moving in the air, high above people.
         People were calling me “God the Creator,” but I was rather praising Almighty Father, because He is the Father of All. They saw the glory of God in me, and knew that they were seeing God Almighty. My glory is from the Father and it is His glory. It is the Father’s pleasure to clothe His son in His own glory. The Father and I are one.
         A spirit, in the form of solid rod, which started from God, and in length as God, ended as God myself.
Next, I met somebody. Then, in spirit and asked him, “Who am I?” He could not answer me.
         “I am Christ,” I said to him. My hairs were long and large on both sides of my face.
         “I thought you have died?” he asked.
         “Those who know the Truth,” I replied, “do not die, but they live forever. But, those who do not know the Truth die and perish forever.”

The Glory Of The Lord Is Always With Us.
         Now it came to pass, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. Exodus 16:10

Now the glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. 17 The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel. 18 So Moses went into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights. Exodus 16:16

Then the cloud covered the tabernacle of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 35 And Moses was not able to enter the tabernacle of meeting, because the cloud rested above it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 36 Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would go onward in all their journeys. 37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not journey till the day that it was taken up. 38 For the cloud of the Lord was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys. Exodus 40:34-38

So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord. 6 Then Moses said, "This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you." Leviticus 9:5-7

Then Aaron lifted his hand toward the people, blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, the burnt offering, and peace offerings. 23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of meeting, and came out and blessed the people. Then the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people, 24 and fire came out from before the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces. Leviticus 9:22-24

Then the Lord said: "I have pardoned, according to your word; 21 but truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord Numbers 14:20-21

And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the Lord, 11 so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord. 1 Kings 8:10-11

When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. 2 And the priests could not enter the house of the Lord, because the glory of the LORD had filled the Lord's house. 3 When all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord on the temple, they bowed their faces to the ground on the pavement, and worshiped and praised the Lord, saying:

All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O Lord,
When they hear the words of Your mouth.
5 Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the Lord,
For great is the glory of the Lord.
Psalms 138:4-5

The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad for them,
And the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose;
2 It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice,
Even with joy and singing.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
The excellence of Carmel and Sharon.
They shall see the glory of the Lord,
The Excellency of our God.

Strengthen the weak hands,
And make firm the feeble knees.
4 Say to those who are fearful-hearted,
"Be strong, do not fear!
Behold, your God will come with vengeance,
With the recompense of God;
He will come and save you."

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,
And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
6 Then the lame shall leap like a deer,
And the tongue of the dumb sings.
For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness,
And streams in the desert.
7 The parched ground shall become a pool,
And the thirsty land springs of water;
In the habitation of jackals, where each lay,
There shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

A highway shall be there, and a road,
And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness.
The unclean shall not pass over it,
But it shall be for others.
Whoever walks the road, although a fool,
Shall not go astray.
9 No lion shall be there,
Nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it;
It shall not be found there.
But the redeemed shall walk there,
10 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness,
And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Isaiah 35:1-10

The glory of the Lord shall be revealed,
And all flesh shall see it together;
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken."
Isaiah 40:5

Then your light shall break forth like the morning,
Your healing shall spring forth speedily,
And your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.
9 Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer;
You shall cry, and He will say, 'Here I am.'
Isaiah 58:8-9

Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.
3 The Gentiles shall come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.
Isaiah 60:1-3

And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it. 27 Also from the appearance of His waist and upward I saw, as it were, the color of amber with the appearance of fire all around within it; and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw, as it were, the appearance of fire with brightness all around. 28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. Ezekiel 1:26-28

Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub, and paused over the threshold of the temple; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord’s glory. 5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even in the outer court, like the voice of Almighty God when He speaks. Ezekiel 10:4-5

The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the temple. Ezekiel 43:4-5

For the earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
As the waters cover the sea.
Habakkuk 2:14

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. 10 Then the angel said to them,” Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger." Luke 2:9-12

"Am I a God near at hand," says the Lord,
"And not a God afar off?
24 Can anyone hide himself in secret places,
So I shall not see him?" says the Lord;
"Do I not fill heaven and earth?" says the Lord.
Jeremiah 23:23-24

My Personal Encounter With God As God Of Vengeance
         In spirit, I came to a church’s gathering. God was speaking through me, saying that He will pour out His wrath on the church and members. Ministers of God and Reverend Fathers were crying for mercy.
