How The Holy Spirit Delivers
Messages
Introduction
Brethren, know that the
ability to use a particular spiritual gift of the Holy Spirit is not all righteousness.
You must not boast about, and do not despise others because you have a special
talent. The three keys to the kingdom of heaven are truth, righteousness and
holiness. And it is a great disappointment that most of the ministers of God
are lacking in these three essentials.
The Ability To Deliver Messages Is Not All Perfection
The
explanations in this writing should serve as a warning to you,
that those who pride themselves about with their prophetic ability are
far from being righteous and acceptable in heaven. Jesus said, “It is fitting
to fulfill all righteousness,” (Matthew 3:15) because several qualities are
expected from every child of God. The prophetic ability is only one among so
many necessary qualities. The other necessary qualities include: truthfulness,
righteousness, holiness, charity, keeping the laws of God, good conduct, decent
dressing, nice appearance, study of the scriptures, hard word, sense of
responsibility, spirit of co-operation, politeness, honesty, punctuality, initiative,
etc.
If
somebody is good in prophecy, but bad in other qualities, such a person is
neither righteous nor perfect.
The
Expectations And Stigma
Today,
in the society, prophets and visioners are so valued
and respected that every minister would like to be prophesy
or see visions. The situation has got so bad that nowadays, pastors, prophets
and ministers of God use all kinds of demonic powers, in order to see visions,
deliver messages and impress people. Many use marine spirits; others use
demonic rings, while several others use idols and charms. Some even go to the
extent of killing human beings and using the blood to lay the foundation of
their churches or altars. Others, who do not engage in any of these evil
practices, are often desirous and anxious of having messages to deliver, so
that people would they are prophets or visioners.
They feel that as long as they do not deliver messages, that people would not
be impressed, while others may not regard them as powerful men of God.
God is
warning the world against frequent messages, miracles, signs and wonders. As a
minister of God, your duty is to represent God, by appearing at the place of
need. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to perform miracles, deliver messages
or enable testimonies. It is not for the minister to dictate how the work shall
be done or what messages to deliver. Do not allow people to push you into
prophesying, lest you begin to say things which the Lord has not said.
Due to
bad training or wrong trend, many ministers are worried when they do not have
messages to deliver. Some insist on having the messages ready beforehand.
Below, I have outlined different ways by which the Holy Spirit delivers
messages, so that you do not worry yourselves to death. Keep an open mind, and
be watchful. The Holy Spirit knows how to do His work and how to make every
ministration of yours glorious and wonderful. Instead of always expecting one
particular way of getting messages, below are several ways by which the Holy
Spirit speaks to his children, which ways you should know:
1.
Before the date, through dreams, visions, etc. when
necessary, the holy spirit shall give your messages
before people come to consult you.
2.
Real time vision while prayer is going on. At the time you
are praying for people, messages and inspiration may come from the Holy Spirit.
3.
In a trance, about 1 hour before the prayer. This happens
when you are resting, relaxing or waiting.
4.
At the gate, while lifting up a hand full of sands. For
example, I went to a town to perform family deliverance. I did not receive any
message before going. I was not worried or anxious about that. When I got to
the compound, at the gate, I prayed and scooped up a hand full of sands. There
was tempest in the sands inside my palm, indicating fierce and terrible battle
from enemies and forces of darkness, battling against the family. By this, the
Holy Spirit has told me so many things about the family.
The way in which you
expect messages from God, may not be the way the Holy Spirit wants to deliver
messages to you.
5.
On appearance, by the person’s look or countenance. Much
information about a person is written on his countenance, on the face.
6.
A person’s conduct or body language, tells you more about the
person. I went for family deliverance. All in the compound welcomed the prayers
and deliverance. But, there was a girl, who was shying from the prayers,
indicating she did not welcome the prayer and deliverance. She was shocked when
I said so. Thenceforth, she showed great interest in the family deliverance and
spiritual work, and she participated happily.
7.
By impression on the fingers, while casting the bible. I
opened the bible to deliver message to somebody. Just at the time of casting
the bible, my thumb spoke, giving me message about the person. That means that
God spoke to me by my thumb, the light of the Holy Spirit flashed on it. The
bible portion confirmed the message. That is one reason why I encourage you to
cultivate a quiet lifetime, so that you can perceive the messages from the Holy
Spirit.
8.
A person wanted to know if he is a minister of God. After
praying, the bible was cast, to verify if a person was a minister of God. The
portion confirmed the message, that she is a minister of God. The bible
reference was:
1 Then he showed me Joshua the
high priest standing before the Angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his
right hand to oppose him. 2 And the LORD said to Satan, "The LORD rebuke you, Satan! The LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?"
3 Now Joshua was clothed with
filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel.
4 Then He answered and spoke
to those who stood before Him, saying, "Take away the filthy garments from
him." And to him He said, "See, I have removed your iniquity from you,
and I will clothe you with rich robes."
5 And I said, "Let them
put a clean turban on his head."
So they put a clean turban on
his head, and they put the clothes on him. And the Angel of the LORD stood by.
6 Then the Angel of the LORD
admonished Joshua, saying, 7 "Thus says the LORD of hosts:
'If you will walk in My ways,
And if you will keep My command,
Then you shall also judge My house,
And likewise have charge of My courts;
I will give you places to
walk
Among these who stand here.
Zechariah 3:1-7
9.
In another case, the bible was cast after a person was told
that he is David. The bible portion mentioned David and spoke about him as a
great man of God, with whom God is well pleased.
10.
By dipping hand inside
a vessel of holy water. On dipping hand inside the vessel of water, the water
gave the message that battle was so much and terrible, which the person
confirmed. God used to the water to deliver message.
11.
By hearing of voice inside the heart. In the case of a child
naming ceremony, the voice said the child’s name is Mmerichukwu.
When the bible was cast, the reference confirmed the name. The bible portion
was psalm 144:1 – end.
Blessed be the LORD my
Rock,
Who trains my hands for war,
And my fingers for battle
—
2 My loving-kindness and my
fortress,
My high tower and my
deliverer,
My shield and the One in
whom I take refuge,
Who subdues my people
under me.
Psalms 144:1-2
12.
By hearing of voice beside the ear, as if somebody was
standing behind and speaking.
21 Your ears shall hear a word behind you,
saying,
"This is the way, walk in it,"
Whenever you turn to the right hand
Or whenever you turn to the
left.
Isaiah
30:21
13.
By a heavy feeling on the right leg, indicating poison and
sickness. During family deliverance, a minister of God had a heavy sensation on
his right leg. Upon inquiry, one of those present confirmed that she was having
pains on the right leg.
14.
By headache, indicating that one of those present is having a
serious headache. This type of message has been received on several occasion, and confirmed by the
person concerned.
15.
By phone call. A minister of God phoned to tell me what God
said about a lady coming to the office for counseling. The lady was stepping
into the office the moment the minister was delivering the message on the
phone. The lady coming into the office did not know that God’s messages
concerning her was being relayed through the phone, and the person delivering
the message did not know that the lady was entering the office at the time. The
messages proved correct.
16.
By the example of Jesus, who usually asked people what they
wanted Him to do for them. Jesus was not fond of giving so many messages as the
present day ministers do, simply because people want to hear messages.
Then James and John, the
sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You
to do for us whatever we ask."
36 And He said to them,
"What do you want Me to do for you?"
Mark 10:35-36
Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude,
blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus,
sat by the road begging. 47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of
Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on
me!"
48 Then many warned him to be quiet; but he
cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"
49 So Jesus stood still and commanded him
to be called.
Then they called the blind man, saying to
him, "Be of good cheer. Rise, He is calling you."
50 And throwing aside his garment, he rose
and came to Jesus.
51 So Jesus answered and said to him,
"What do you want Me to do for you?"
Mark
10:46-51
In one case, a minister of
God delivered several message to a person and prayed God to answer the person.
But, when the person left the minister, he said to himself, “This minister is
talking off point. All these things he said are not what I want.”
17.
During family deliverance and spiritual work, anointing moved
a minister who was resident in the mission, and she confirmed that while
prayers and ministration was going on, that a python (ancestral idol) turned
back and left the compound. At times, it is better that messages come through
those who may doubt the genuineness of the prophecy.
18.
By anointing moving a person in the form of spiritual
possession. The spirit spoke through the person and delivers messages.
13 Now all Judah, with
their little ones, their wives, and their children, stood before the LORD.
14 Then the Spirit of the
LORD came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son
of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel,
the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly. 15 And he said,
"Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King
Jehoshaphat! Thus says the LORD to you: 'Do not be afraid nor
dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but
God's. 16 Tomorrow go down against them. They will surely come up by the Ascent
of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the
brook before the Wilderness of Jeruel. 17 You will
not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the
salvation of the LORD, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!' Do not fear or
be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the LORD is with you." 2
Chronicles 20:13-17
19.
By cultivating a habit of quiet times. The Holy Spirit does
not want noise or distractions. That is why God said,
“Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm
46:10
Observe quiet times and God would make
Himself manifest to you.
20.
By asking people to narrate the messages they had within the
last seven days before the family prayer and deliverance.
21.
By forced anointing, when the word of God is more than what a
person can withhold within himself. Then the person
speaks, whether he likes it or not.
Jeremiah was a very good
example, saying:
Then I said, "I will
not make mention of Him,
Nor speak anymore in His
name."
But His word was in my
heart like a burning fire
Shut up in my bones;
I was weary of holding it
back,
And I could not.
Jeremiah 20:9
This may happen when one
is angry, provoked or inspired by the Holy Spirit.
22.
By faintness and paleness, by appearance. The message was
that the person’s spirit was moving away from her body, which the person later
confirmed in a testimony.
23.
By the candle lights, by the way they burn or vibrate during
prayers.
24.
By opening to a person’s page and holding the paper for a
while. Then, whatever comes to the minister’s mind is true. In one case, when I
prayed for revelation about a person, I was told to open to his page and hold
the page, and to write any messages or impressions I received then. All the
messages delivered proved true.
25.
By divine emotion, which can be tears of
love, tears of mercy, a feeling of fear, etc.
26.
By the spiritual hold of chains on the two feet. In a
deliverance prayer, we were at a motor park praying. Then, there was a feeling
of a great chain on the feet of a minister. Then, he was moved by anointing and
staggered. Therefore, the minster told the transport workers (drivers and other
personnel) that the chains used to put the company in spiritual bondage has
been broken. The confirmation was that the company started doing well in motor
transport business.
27.
By saying, “Let there be light, and there is light. The light
is from God and the light is God.” Repeat this several times on a person you
want to receive messages about.
28.
By no messages at all. In one case, a minister prayed hard to
receive messages concerning a person, but did not receive any message. He was
anxious, worried, to receive messages. Eventually, the person did not even come
again as the person had said.
29.
By reading psalm 24:7-10
7 Lift up your heads, O
you gates!
And be lifted up, you
everlasting doors!
And the King of glory
shall come in.
8 Who is this King of
glory?
The LORD strong and
mighty,
The LORD
mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O
you gates!
Lift up, you everlasting
doors!
And the King of glory
shall come in.
10 Who is this King of
glory?
The LORD of hosts,
He is the King of glory.
Psalms 24:7-10
30.
By just mentioning a point. During family deliverance, a minister
told a girl that at times, idols are seen in the form of a mad person in dream
or vision. Immediately, the girl said that she saw three mad persons pursuing
her in a dream. The minister therefore told her that three idols were fighting
against her success and prosperity.
31.
By another person who is not among the prayer warriors. A
prayer group went for family deliverance in a town. About three days after the
prayer, another minister of God, who was not among those that went for the
family deliverance gave messages, saying, “The
compound you went to for family deliverance had other families within the same
compound, and you people prayed for the family on the right. It was a girl that
led you people to the compound. Towards the end of the prayer, people from the
other families came to receive blessings, but were told that there were no more
blessings to give out.” All these messages were true, because they described
accurately what happened during the family deliverance.
32.
By reaction during deliverance. Those possessed by marine
spirit usually roll themselves on the ground the way a snake moves, gliding
from one side to the other.
The Lord
Warns The World Against Messages, Miracles, Signs And Wonders
My children,
I want to tell you something.
Do not depend on miracles.
Do not depend on miracles, signs and wonders.
Do not trust in them.
Do not depend on so many messages.
Messages, messages, messages.
For many have perished by this (by so doing).
The world do not want to be taught the way.
They do not want to know the Truth.
All they want is signs and wonders.
Miracle, miracle, miracle.
Where it is it booming (ebe o n’afio),
where it is happening.
Yes,
they do not want to know the Truth.
They do not want to know the way of life.
They do not want to know what I want to be done.
They do not want to know my commandments.
They do not want to know my Sabbath Day.
They are looking for miracles
and the enemy is using miracle to misled
so many souls.
I am warning you.
Be very careful and wise
(Uche unu
di kwa ya).
Be very careful and wise.
Do not depend on many miracle or give me message.
Do not depend on many miracle or give me message.
Delivering message is good.
Delivering message is good,
if it is from me.
if it is from me.
It is good to give revelations,
if it is from me.
Be very careful and wise (Uche unu
di kwa ya).
As I told you in the beginning,
be as wise as serpent and as humble as dove.
First, seek the Truth.
Keep my commandments.
So that I shall abide with you in perfection (n’ozuzu oke).
So that I shall abide with you in perfection,
for I am present from time to time.
The Great
Disappointment
In His
anger, disappointment and warning, God said, “I am not in the midst of all
these churches, ministries, fellowship or whatever you call them. I am not
there. Whatever they are doing therein does not concern me. It does not concern
me. It is not for me. It is not for me. They are saying and teaching man-made
doctrines.
“They are not worshiping me the way I want. I am the
Lord of Sabbath. I am that I am. I am the Unchanging One. I am Indestructible.
My word never changes, and my word shall unfailingly come to fulfillment.
“You should
ask yourself questions about all these churches, ministries, fellowship and so
on. People normally gather full there, where it is happening. They have so many
miracles and testimonies, abundant signs and wonders, including healing,
deliverance, breakthrough, anointing, tongues and prophecies. Yet, I am not
there, and my Holy Spirit is not there. All because they are not worshiping me
the way I want ... They wear shoes into the churches and holy places. That is
why I left them.
“Don't
you know that the Devil can do miracles? A person uses blood of human being to
lay the foundation of his church, and multitudes gather there. Many use demonic
powers or evil means, all in the bid to deceive people… In no distance time, my
anger shall erupt. My word shall unfailingly come to manifestation for the
world to know that I am God - All the end time calamities prophesied of, wars
and rumours of war; natural disasters like
earthquake, flood, famine and pestilence; pollution, destruction and massive
death; shall all surely fulfill. Do you see all these developments of humanity
on the face of the earth? All of them shall be razed down by the consuming fire
of my wrath.”
The
religious leaders are only busy dining and wining from the offerings, without
providing the spiritual needs of the church members, and while so many souls
are perishing into the hell fire. Every minster of God not trained in Spiritual
Science is like a thief stealing from the vineyard of God. And all the souls
stolen by them end up in the hell fire. Be warned!
Furthermore,
God said, “This message is for the people of the world, those that reject my
messages, those that receive my message books, and after reading the books,
they begin to laugh or say whatever they like even against my ministry. These
people do not think about themselves. They do not know what is coming ahead of
them. They are annoying me. But, I tell you, my words (end time calamities)
must come to pass for I am the Lord Almighty”.
Conclusion
So far,
you have seen that the Holy Spirit has several ways of giving messages to his people.
You should not worry yourself to death in order to get messages. Just keep your
heart pure, and pray and watch. The Holy Spirit knows how and when to do His
work in a glorious and wonderful way.
