The watchmen upon the wall have been entrusted with a unique stewardship. They have been uniquely called to speak to their generation.
The prophetic mantel they wear is the same one shouldered by many before them. It is God that equips them with an uncanny sense of discernment and understanding of the times and seasons in which they live.
They come to speak inconvenient truths few want to hear. They come with a prophetic unction to sound the alarm, to warn of danger, to watch, to expose, to reprove, to point the way and to speak as the oracles of God.
But before the watchmen step forward, God must show each of them, like Paul, what great things they will have to suffer for His names’ sake. Yes, they are men and women who have been grievously tried in the furnace of affliction. They know suffering, testing and betrayal. They are seasoned men and women – never novices, hirelings or wannabes. They know the solitude of the wilderness just as others who were driven there before them. They’ve learned the deep lessons of the barren places. They know what it is to sit in the cave with Elijah.
Like Elijah they know great highs and deep lows. They know seasons of triumph and the seasons of profound despondency. They know self-pity and discouragement and the black dog of depression as well. No, they are not perfect. Some are often deeply flawed. They seldom have honor in their own households. Like King David, they are men and women of contradictions but, like David, they are men and women “after God’s own heart” too. And like Elijah they know how to pray and they know His “still small voice” when they hear it.
They are those who stand apart because of their message. It’s a thankless job. They wear the label of oddball, wacko’s, zealot and religious nutcase.
They’ve been scorned, mocked, ridiculed, dismissed, condemned and rejected. Most have tried at various times and seasons to turn their backs upon the burden but they never succeed. It is a divine summons they can’t cut loose. It is a divine imperative which drives them to speak, to stand and to write. It is an irresistible force they cannot long abandon.
Theirs is a unthankful job. which often ends in banishment, torture and even death. Like the prophets of old they are condemned, ostracized and persecuted. Few want to listen to their incessant ravings. Their message is not appealing to the flesh, convenient or comfortable to hear.
They don’t care about popularity, publicity or a following. They don’t lust for fame or fortune. They know how to stand alone. They will never be “yes men”, apple polishers, court toadies, people pleasers or best sellers.
They don’t care about ratings, censorship or the praises of men. They call the church to radical change, to repentance, to discipleship, to sacrifice and to devotion. They call for accountability, authenticity and change.
As Tozer stated, “Such a man was likely to be drastic, radical, possibly at times violent, and the curious crowd that gathered to watch him work soon branded him as extreme, fanatical and negative. And in a sense, they were right. He was single minded, severe, fearless, and these were the qualities the circumstances demanded. He shocked some, frightened others and alienated not a few, but he knew who had called him and what he was sent to do. His ministry was geared to the emergency, and that fact marked him out as different, a man apart. To such men as this the church owes a debt too heavy to pay. A.W. Tozer (From Foreword to ‘Why Revival Tarries’)
Whether fellow Christians want to hear their message today or reject them as so many have done before, God is raising up watchmen today to once again speak to His people.
One preacher can have a church filled with 4000 people and therefore be regarded as one of the greatest men of God on earth. Yet because they want to keep their church full,they cannot preach the gospel of repentance from sin and as a result, not even one person among the 4000 makes it to heaven. And another preacher may have only 10 people in his church because people hate the truth and out of those 10, then 7 of them make it to God’s kingdom. Which of them did a greater work? We must be loyal to Jesus and not use the standards of man to judge. Jesus told me that many people whom we consider to be “God’s generals” are not the ones regarded as such in heaven. God does not see as man sees. The true generals are those who spoke of repentance even in the face of death and did not fear man but truly cared to save people’s souls and the Lord told me many were never even known or famous but they are truly honored in heaven. John the Baptist was called the greatest by Jesus yet He only preached repentance and never even performed any miracle.(John 10:41,Matthew 11:11) The greatest work anyone who preaches can ever do is to preach repentance because Jesus truly cares for people’s salvation. Even one single soul is precious to the Lord. The word of God pierces deep within and hurts because it takes us from the things we love. No wonder all the prophets were killed. No prophet of God entertained people with their messages. God is not interested in entertaining us,He is interested in saving us.
The Lord Jesus showed me how people are perishing,people as many as sands on a beach,yet these are all human beings who were once on earth but died in their sins.
Many were comforted by preachers that they are still children of God even though they lived in sin as long as they professed Christ. They were told that it’s impossible to overcome sin and grace means they can stay in sin and be saved.
Now these people are in hell and know no rest day or night. But Jesus showed me that the people in hell now realized that no sin was too difficult to overcome and they felt foolish. Even though they curse God because of pain out of their unrepentant hearts,they all knew that God was just in His judgement and only blamed themselves because they realized that no sin was too hard to stop if they really wanted to.
It is a great privilege to hear someone reminding you to abandon your sins and follow Jesus. Jesus showed me hell and it was extremely huge and seemed endless.
It seemed to just stretch on without any end and the people were as many as sands on a beach. All these people are doomed in their sins and many more keep pouring in every second.
Few people make it to God’s kingdom compared to those who go to hell because few people are willing to abandon their sins and follow Jesus in holiness. I heard the people screaming in unimaginable torment just as real as you hear someone screaming next to you.
This wasn’t an imagination but it’s something that is so real and I can’t ever deny and say that He did not show it to me. But Jesus showed me that people in hell are in deep regret and keep thinking that if they could return to earth for a second they would use that time to repent. But it is too late,they rejected God.
The Lord showed me that many people who are filling up churches right now are still on their way to hell because they are in sin. Jesus showed me that worldliness is the sin leading so many Christian’s to hell. They think they can toy with God.
They are living in lust,having girlfriends and boyfriends and committing sexual sin with them. Even if you are just kissing people you are not married to,you are lustful and on your way to hell. The sin of lust is as serious as actual fornication to the Lord.
It’s better you get married. There’s so much sexual immorality and lust and people think they can stay in their sins and serve God. Many people are going to church but still in drunkenness.
Jesus showed me that hell is so large,endlessly large,I couldn’t even see the end of it and yet it was so full! People waste their time on earth entertaining themselves by watching movies,comedies and cartoons about sexual immorality,witchcraft,and everything that God hates and this too is taking many people to hell.
Many women are landing in hell because they dressed in pants(trousers),mini skirts and mini dresses,cleavages out, and the fashion of being half naked. Even many men are now dressing in ungodly ways of sagging down their pants and showing underwear,dyeing hair,wearing earrings and fashion rings,and all those things that leave you looking like people who don’t know Jesus.(Watch my video on Rabekah and Esther wearing jewelry and my other videos on outward holiness for proper explanations and scripture)
Jesus showed me that the desire for fake beauty,which is perversion in God’s eyes is taking many people to hell. Wanting to be in the image of satan,instead of God’s image by changing your hair color,fake hair,fake nails,painting your lips,nails,makeup. Satan created an image meant to defy the image of man created by God and you bow to Satan when you follow it and think what God created wasn’t good and you must replace it it’s what is fake from satan’s invention.
You cannot worship Jesus while bowing to baal.
Jesus showed me I was going to go to hell because I used to straighten my hair,making it look completely different from how God created it to look. If Jesus created you with curly hair and you make it fake by changing it to straight or vice versa. All these are satan’s ways of defying God because He hates God and they are serious sin and I saw people going to hell for this. You are not free to do anything you want to your body. You can use lotions,creams and other things to take care of your body,but not things to change body into something fake. Do not be vain. If you start getting close to Jesus He will show you how much He hates these things. They are abominable to Him.
Jesus really hates all these things and it is satan’s way of defying God. You were created in God’s image. All these are serious to the Lord and He told me to speak on it and to keep speaking on it because many people will go to hell because of these sins.
They are defying God and bowing to Satan.
Jesus showed me that there’s so much worldliness in the church that’s why the people in church are filling up hell.
He showed me that people in church are worldly,and there’s no difference with people who do not profess Christ. The result is that people waste their time in church and die in their sins and go to hell. These things are very serious and the Lord wants me to keep talking about them.
People can have their different opinions on it but I speak what Jesus showed me. I saw so many people in hell you cannot even estimate how many they could be,and hell was endless.
And Jesus said to me that,”do not think these people in hell were a different specie.They are human and were once on earth just like you.They ate,slept,and lived their lives just like you.They were not all in the world,some were in the church.They talked about Me,they prayed,they fasted,they sang,but they continued in their sins and died in their sins.” These people in hell do not rest from their torments even for a minute.
They feel tired,exhausted and weary and yet they can’t sleep,there’s no rest and are tormented day and night. Hell is not an imaginary place. Hell is real! Jesus told me that He showed me hell because He wanted me to warn people to repent of their sins. He said to me that,”It is necessary to warn the people about hell.Tell the world to repent.”
The Lord said when we warn people of hell and sin,we give them an opportunity to make their own decision.
So if I do not say everything the Lord showed me it means that the blood of those people who perish will be on my hands and I do not want that. I am obligated to speak what Jesus showed me. I saw the flames of hell and heard the screams of the damned and it is not something I can get out of my mind.
It is all so very real and people are landing there even now because they loved their sin but life ended so suddenly. They were in unimaginable torment. Young and old. I remember the screams of this young man in hell that were so unbearable,”aah aah aaah aaaah!” And he just screamed like that endlessly!
Hell is real.Once you are in hell it doesn’t matter if you were rich,powerful,beautiful,popular or whatever you were. It will seem like a dream when you remember that you were once happy on earth. It’s even better to be on earth sick,poor,suffering, than to be in hell.
Earth will seem like a paradise to you. People on earth hate to be told about hell but people in hell feel like no one described the place enough for them to run away from that path that leads there. Nothing on earth matters,all that matters is to be right with God.
All the things you want,that may seem important are not even important. Once you are in hell it will not matter that you were happily married,or had made a lot of money,or had been a powerful president.
All those things will mean nothing to you. All you will want is the salvation of your soul. We are so blessed to be on earth,able to repent and escape hell because the blood and of Jesus cannot wash away the sins of those already in hell,it’s too late for them.
Do not follow the crowd,you must seek Jesus and not follow the crowds in sin. Crowds of people are landing in hell. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing when Jesus showed it to me,just how many people are in hell. Narrow is the way that leads to life and that way is Jesus Christ. Don’t follow a preacher teaching you to sin,follow Jesus.
Do everything not to go to hell.Do not toy with sin. Jesus said it’s even better to cut off your hand that makes you sin or your eye than to go to hell. Jesus warns us about hell so many times. That’s why He had to choose to suffer that painful death to grant us forgiveness so that we escape hell. But we can only get that forgiveness if we repent,not when we stay on in our sins.
It is a very serious thing and it is necessary to seek God on your own so that you are not deceived by false teachers because if you go to hell it’s for eternity. Take your relationship with God personally and find out the truth on your own. The Holy Spirit will teach you what is true.
People may have their own opinions on all these things but what matters is for you to find out the Lord’s opinion.
I have said what the Lord asked me to and no one’s blood will be on my hands.
Repent of your sins and believe in Jesus or you will perish. There’s no other way of salvation.
Isaiah 66:24,”And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.”
VALENTINE’S DAY (Why you should be more spiritually alert during this period)
Sexual immorality is part of the worship of Satan. As part of their occult rituals,satanists,witches and other occultists usually perform abominable sexual acts to worship Satan. It’s something that dates back to thousands of years ago. Even in Bible times,idolaters used to do things like that by committing adultery,fornication with temple prostitutes as part of their rituals in worshipping their idols which is actually Satan in disguise. On Valentine’s Day a lot of sexual immorality is committed world wide. What people do not realize is that they make sacrifice and worship Satan through sexual immorality. On this day,many demonic alters are set up and upheld because of the sin being committed by people and satanists are able to maximize their operations at this time because so many people are helping them by taking part in the worship of satan unknowingly. Even people who were trying to stay sexually pure,many of them give in to these demons on Valentine’s Day. On this day satan releases swarms of demonic spirits that cause sexual immorality. You must give no place to satan. Be holy for the Lord your God is holy. This is a great time to pray more and use your authority as a child of God to destroy the demonic alters being set up and bring God’s will on earth instead. A lot of the customs and traditions on earth are meant to glorify satan and to defy God. If the day is truly meant to remember a saint then why is it the international day of adulterers and fornicators? On this day,God is not glorified but instead there’s a lot of lust and sexual immorality which God hates. There’s a lot of demonic activities that happen spiritually on this day and demons work over time to make people give in to their lusts,that’s why it translates to lot of acts of darkness all over the earth. Do not let your guard down. Watch and pray. Make sure you give no place to Satan and you close every door of sin that was open.
1 Corinthians 6:18,”Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.”
Wherefore, as I live, saith the Lord God;surely,because though hast defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things,and with all thine abominations, therefore will I also diminish thee; neither shall mine eyes spare, neither will I have any pity
Ezekiel 5:11
This know also that in the last days, perilous times shall come. For men will be lovers of themselves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasure than lovers of God; having a form of Godliness but denying the power thereof; from such turn away
2 Timothy 3:1-5
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not combining
Romans 1:28
When we look at the meaning of the word; reprobate in simpler terms, it means a person who is unprincipled, a person operating without guidance, leadership and under no law.
If will look at the original design of God on how He created man, the Bible says that man was created in the image and the likeness of God and it was also the prerogative of God that man was created to worship Him. Jeremiah recognized this and states it in the Bible;
O LORD, I know the ways of man is not in himself;it is not in man who walks to direct his steps
Jeremiah 10:23
The original design of God was that man was to lead, to be guided, to receive instructions, to adhere to some specifics, to be controlled. if we look at what transpired in the garden of Eden, the conversation that man had with God, we see that man was receiving instructions and thereby implementing them and during the cause, man was granted authority over the creation of God.
But during all these, when man inclined to receiving other instructions from another source apart from God the creator himself, the outcome was disastrous and we see there effects all over the Bible.
When man sinned in the garden, we see that there is a state of reprobation that took upon his life and here is where the sees of rebellion was planted within too. Immediately they had sinned and their eyes opened, they immediately began to run away from the eyes of God and hide. This state of rebellion and running away from became part of man as a result of sin till to date.
Since man was created with a will and now reprobation took a hold of him, you find that everything that man does is contrary to the will and the ways of God. It is why in the redemption plan of God, the will of man is very important. In John 3:16: for whosoever shall believe is there that anybody that wants redemption must align his will with that of God to be saved.
The above verses speaks and expresses the effects of being a reprobate, lawlessness, the lack of guidance. It is the tendency of man today to direct himself in whatever he does, he wants to be between the line, he wants to be on the gray area, neither white or black to which this is the mindset of a reprobate yet in real sense there is no middle ground, man has no vacuum, it is either he is led by God or by the devil.
The delusion is that many think that when they do their own things without involving God, they are on safer grounds to express themselves as much as they want but the truth is that the devil gives you a chance to operate in your will as much as you want.
It is absurd that reprobates are also in the churches and the sanctuaries of worship. They’ve refused to obey the ways of God and they’re in the church doing their own things contrary to the will of God. They came from the world with the identity of the world and they’ve still maintained the identity of the world in the church.
As a result of these, sin and abomination has found its way in the church and on the pulpit, the true message of repentance and holiness has been changed, they’ve embraced the doctrine of devils where they are preached to what they want to hear.
The preachers of today wants to lower the standards of God to fit the standards of men to which its is impossible. The true Gospel of the blood and the cross has been abandoned and now they preach an horizontal gospel, a message of prosperity and attaining the worldly wealth.
The only way to deal with sin and worldliness is to rebuke sin sharply and preach the truth without compromise but the preachers of today can no do so because their tongues are week as a result of sin and compromise!
The altar of the Lord is defiled and the house of God has became a place where sinners are being bred. The worst things are now happening in the church than in the world!
THE LORD IS DEMANDING FOR REPENTANCE AND THE RESTORATION OF THE GOSPEL OF THE BLOOD AND THE CROSS!!!
KILLING THE FLESH: OVERCOMING SIN The key to overcoming the desires of the flesh is to walk in the Spirit Walking in the Spirit is a practical thing that requires you to keep yourself occupied with the things of the Spirit. Often we struggle with sin because the things of God are not a priority in our lives. When we get off work and school,we want to spend our time browsing, watching entertainment, and everything else. We only remember to say a 5 minute prayer when getting into bed. And the result of that is a heart that craves,longs for and succumbs to the desires of the flesh. As we feed our spirit, the flesh dies. The more time you spend with the Lord, the more your flesh dies. The Spirit and the flesh are enemies, it is impossible for them to exist together. That’s why the bible says, if any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in Him (1 John 2:15). And the bible also says those who walk in the flesh cannot please God.(Romans 8:) The food of the Spirit is poison to the flesh,and the things of the flesh is poison to the Spirit. The food of the flesh are the things of the world(sin) and the food of the Spirit is God’s word and prayer. When you feed your flesh, your are poisoning the love you have for God and eventually and you kill it as a result you will find it very difficult to obey God. And when you feed your Spirit you are poisoning the flesh and eventually you kill it and as a result you will find it extremely difficult to sin because you will have no desire for sin. So the weapon against sin is to feed the spirit with the word of God and prayer.
“ Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness(immoral behavior), idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions(discord), heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” GALATIANS 5:19-25 A person walking in the flesh is overcome by the things of the flesh. Only the Spirit of God can overcome the flesh, that is why Jesus said without Me you can do NOTHING!(John 5:5). Only those who walk in the Spirit have strength to deny their flesh. The Lord Jesus has called us to a life of self denial. He said if any man wants to come after Me, he must deny himself. As long as you cannot prioritize spending time with God in prayer and reading His word every day, you will never be able to deny yourself. You will keep on falling because you will be walking in the flesh.
When you get off work prioritize spending your time in prayer and reading the bible or doing other service for God. Keep yourself busy with the Lord and the flesh will have no place in your life. Have you experienced a moment when you are so busy with something that even when someone tries to talk to you, you can’t hear them because of how consumed you are by that thing you are doing? It’s the same in the spirit; when you get so busy with Jesus, even when satan tries to whisper lustful thoughts in your ear, you won’t be able to hear him because of how consumed you are with Jesus. Satan’s attempts to tempt you will result in utter failure. In the early church, new converts would spend much time in prayer with the Lord until the desire/seed/yoke/root/craving to sin was broken in them, until the craving for sin was no longer felt. You cannot have a pure heart without spending time with God. It results in hypocrisy of appearing holy before people but living in secret sin. When you spend time with the Lord, He will change the desires of your heart and purify it to desire the things of the spirit. When you spend time with the Lord, it will become very easy to obey Him than to disobey, because you will truly love Him. Just like when you love someone, you wouldn’t want to hurt them, when you love the Lord, you will not want to hurt Him by sinning, you will want to please Him. Obedience will not be a burden, but it will become a joy because you are doing it for the One you love!
STRATEGIES FOR BUILDING A CONSISTENT MIDNIGHT PRAYER ALTAR
One of the challenges a lot of people face is the inability to have a midnight Prayer life and for some, it is the inability to remain consistent in their prayer life especially with midnight Prayers. I can assure you, that the best time to build a Prayer Altar is midnight. Before I share the Strategies to building a consistent midnight prayer Altar, i will like to let you know that there are factors that motivates it. It doesn’t just happen. You don’t just wake up one day and start praying by midnight and remain consistent with it for a long time. It will be difficult to maintain if you don’t know this factors.
Some of the factors that motivates you to engage in the midnight Prayer are; 1) HUNGER : This is the driving force, the passion and the willingness to do it. A lot of people are stuck in the level of “Wanting to do it” but the truth is that the second factor that i’m about to share determines if you will leave the level of willingness and move to the level of actually doing it. 2) BURDEN This is where the why comes in. The burden is the reason that sponsors the hunger. It could be a personal drive, it could be motivated by family burdens, community or country. Whatever the reason is, that is the purpose behind the hunger to engage in midnight prayers. You cannot build an Altar without a reason. You will by your own hand pull it down because there is no purpose attached to it. THE QUESTION NOW IS WHY DO YOU WANT TO RAISE A PRAYER ALTAR AT MIDNIGHT? (Let the Holy Spirit help you to supply the right answer to this question)
PAY ATTENTION TO THESE WORDS BEFORE WE TAKE THE THIRD FACTOR; God will not get completely involved until he sees your seriousness. This is where a lot of people struggle a lot. They want God to start it and to constantly drag them to the secret place, but it doesn’t work that way. God will test your faithfulness before committing himself to any business of raising an Altar.
Raising an Altar is a serious business in the realm of the spirit. It demands that a Priest must be involved and start the process first, be committed and faithful to the activities and God, seeing the level of his commitment and faithfulness comes to Honour it.
Altar attracts spirits. Both Angels and demons are attracted to the place of Altar. This is not to scare you but to bring you to the knowledge of what Altars represent and some of the activities that goes on there.
Altars attracts attacks but it is still on that altar that you destroy them and get Victory. If there are no attacks that comes with raising an Altar, what will you be doing in the SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY? It is because of the inevitable presence of attacks that comes as a result of having a secret place, that is why there’s the SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY FOR PROTECTION. The SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY guarantees protection for only those who dwell in the secret place says the Word of God in Psalms 91 verse 1. “He that dwelleth in the secret place(Altar) of the most High Shall abide under the SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY”
What differentiate both the good and the evil Altars are the engagements on those Altars. A believers Altar must carry the Word of God (Declaring the Word of God during Prayers). The prayers must be made to the Living God through Jesus Christ His Son who is our Lord and Saviour. The Blood of Jesus must speak on your Altar. So you must always invoke the Blood upon your Altar at every time by pleading the blood of Jesus during the activities of prayer. The Spirit of the living God must oversee the affairs of the Altar. All directions must come from Him including what to pray about at any given time.
You must understand that the Holy Spirit is also the Spirit of supplication and intercession. This knowledge of Him will help you not to worry about the prayer points needed during prayers. He knows what you should pray and how you should pray the prayers unto God.
NOW TO THE THIRD FACTOR, 3) TIME To raise a midnight Prayer Altar, you must in partnership with the Holy Spirit create a time for the prayers to be made on a daily basis. The time created can not be changed by you. It must be maintained. The secret place is a place that is time conscious. If you must do business with God, you must keep to time. Be faithful and consistent. This requires that you don’t just wake up daily to pray, but wake up daily at a particular time to pray.
Two attributes that makes God committed to your midnight Prayer Altar are; FAITHFULNESS : This has to do with your commitment to pray always at midnight. CONSISTENCY: This isn’t just about your commitment to pray daily but about your commitment to a particular timing whether it is convenient or not. It has become a covenant time between you and God. When this time is faithfully and consistently kept, it is recorded in heaven and when this happens, you are granted access to the realm of the spirit, activities of the supernatural begins to take place, activations are made, you will be able to pick signals through your eyes, ears and heart because your spiritual sense organs are already activated. You will then be granted access to angelic encounters. Angels will be sent to you, messages will be passed across to you, directions will be given to you. You will have a taste of the heavenly activities right here on Earth.
YOU MUST BE TIME CONSCIOUS IF YOU MUST BUILD A SUSTAINABLE MIDNIGHT PRAYER ALTAR UNTO GOD.
IN RAISING AN ALTAR, YOU ARE CREATING A MEETING POINT BETWEEN THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH AND YOU THE HUMAN STANDING AS THE PRIEST.
PRIESTS DON’T SLEEP ON ALTARS, ALTARS ARE MADE FOR ACTIVITIES. THERE’S ALWAYS ACTIVITIES GOING ON, ON THE ALTAR. THAT IS WHY GOD WOKE SAMUEL UP. YOU DON’T SLEEP ON THE ALTAR.
THE LAW GUIDING THE ALTAR IS THAT THE PRIEST SHOULD NEVER LET THE LIGHT GO OFF. SO WHEN YOU START TO RAISE AN ALTAR BEFORE GOD, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE A PRIEST AND YOUR DUTY IS TO ENSURE THAT THE LIGHT REMAINS AND NEVER GOES OFF.
STRATEGIES FOR BUILDING A CONSISTENT MIDNIGHT PRAYER ALTAR. 1) SET AN ALARM. This is a system of advantage that technology had provided you. I know that the Holy Spirit can wake you up but please set your alarm. It is also a disciplinary measure you have implemented for yourself, that shows the Holy Spirit that you are committed to making this a possibility physically. You may not know it, but it is recorded with God as a contributor to your level of faithfulness and commitment to your Prayer life. Depending only on the Spirit of God to wake you up is by itself laziness because the Bible already tells you that there is a constant battle between the Spirit and the flesh and that the Spirit is willing but the flesh is not. So by setting an alarm you are consciously bringing the flesh under your control and the control of the Spirit. (The noise of the alarm clock helps you to physically bring your flesh under the control of the Spirit)
RULES GUIDING THE ALARM CLOCKS FOR NIGHT PRAYERS Your alarm clock must be a bit far from you so that when it rings, you will need extra efforts like standing up, moving towards it, stretching of your hands beyond the normal in other to turn it off. This little but powerful action reduces the amount of sleep in your eyes at that time and you may immediately feel thirsty.
Give your alarm time a title (For those using phones to set the alarm). It is important that your alarm carries the label–Midnight Prayer or any words that best describes the activity for that time. Still for those using phones to set alarms, do not use your phone until you run out of battery. Preserve that 5percent and switch on to battery saver. This is specifically for people living in countries that don’t have regular power supply. Saving your phone battery from completely going off is a form of discipline and commitment that validate the importance of your Prayer Altar to you and unto God.
2) START SMALL TO GROW BIG : You must understand that capacity is given based on your ability. God knows you and gives you based on your ability. Everyone does not have the same ability. So, do not copy timing from people and do not be motivated by the timing of others to raise an Altar and build a sustainable prayer life. That a young man or woman can prays consistently for two hours daily does not guarantee that you can. Burdens are released based on abilities. Assignment are given based on abilities. The reason why a person can pray for three hours every day is because there’s that ability inside of him which didn’t start from three hours but from minutes and then it keeps growing till he or she gets to that level of praying for three hours daily effortlessly. This you must know did not happen a day, it took months and years to arrive at that level. So you must not use the current level of a person to start raising a Prayer Altar but you must start with the Grace supplied to you by the Spirit of God and then keep growing until you occupy the entire period of time captured in your prayer Altar by God.
3) ASK FOR THE ENABLING GRACE There’s a Grace that the Spirit supplies to keep you burning at all times. You must understand that little contributions and disciplinary measures are needed but it is just a fraction of what is required. There is a Grace that enables and sustains a Prayer Altar. It is not by might nor by power but by the Spirit says the Lord This Grace has been made available unto you but to tap into it you must play your role and ask for the supply of the Grace upon you. GOD IS EVER READY TO SUPPLY GRACE TO ANYONE WHO ASK.

” I see this preacher on the pulpit, he begins to preach but suddenly he seems to forget what he was preaching, then he rashes to his “bag” which has contents stashed within, I see him removing papers from it, going through them one by one as if what he’s looking isn’t there according to his facial expression, once again he rashes to another location but while am keen on him, he seems to a robe on him and as I look closer it seems to be a scarlet robe but shockingly it is of a woman…… suddenly he comes closer from where we are seated from the podium and sadly announces that he cannot continue with the sermon and those next to me becomes so disappointed and no longer wants to listen anymore as he explains himself…..what shocks me is that he is one of the renown preachers with a big ministry in Kenya “
The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit. Jeremiah 2:8 KJV
There is a serious problem or occurrence that has happened with the so called men of God, men of the cloth or the clergy. There is a derailing that has happened to most of them and they have been seriously compromised to the point of forgetting about God….some of them have been overrun by fame, some of them by money, some of them by sexual immorality e.t.c and by all these, the altar is defiled and the Glory of God departed longtime ago, mostly these services do run as they want them conducted, it is what is refered to as “horizontal gospel”. It is a gospel that revolves around earthly things or materialistic gospel where people are only taught on how to gain material wealth and what have you. The Gospel of the cross was abandoned longtime ago, nobody can rebuke sin any longer because those we look up to as the clergy are deep in sin…..
Wherefore Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch not the unclean thing; And I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, And ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 6:17-18 KJV
You wonder where we shall run to? And whom shall we look upon? The LORD says that come out from among them and be separate then afterwards He shall receive you and be a father to you! Beloved, the father is waiting for us to come out under them that are fallen, bearing the robe of jezebel and He shall show us the way forward…..
A few weeks later I was praying intensely when suddenly Jesus Christ appeared to me in a twinkling of an eye. He held my right hand and said, “Joshua I want to take you somewhere.” Then suddenly we found ourselves in a desert. I saw a river around this desert. While I was watching the river, I noticed a man dressed in animal clothes at a distance of 500 meters. He was of the Semitic race.
Actually, we were around the street and we were leaving the street and entering the desert. Then Jesus asked me, “Do you know that man?? I said, “No I don’t know him.” The Lord said, “Wait.” We then got closer or five meter around him. Then Jesus asked me again, “Do you know this man?“ I said, “Lord I don’t know him.” This man was not an old man; he was still young. Then Jesus said to me, “This is John the Baptist.” I was surprised. Then I hugged him. I was really happy to meet him and he was really kind. Then Jesus said, “This is John the Baptist that I sent to prepare My first coming in the world. In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying. “Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near. This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah. A voice of one calling in the wilderness. ‘Prepare the way for the Lord. Make straight paths for Him.”
Then Jesus said to me, “I am also sending you to the world with the same mission which is to prepare My people for My coming. They are also many of your brothers in the world that I gave the commision of preparing My people for My return is imminent. I am coming back soon you must prepare the church for the rapture.”
“Many of your brothers that I sent to the world to prepare My people have deviated from their mission of preparing My people. They have abandoned their assignment and commission. And they are preaching something else instead of preparing My people. “Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who remains awake and clothed so that he will not go naked and let his shame be exposed. Blessed are those servants whom the Master finds on watch when He returns.”
Beloved, I am not John the Baptist. Because Jesus said He has assigned many of His fellow servants to prepare His church for the rapture as He is coming soon but they have deviated.
After traveling in the past to visit John the Baptist, Jesus said, “Let us go back.” He held my hand again then my spirit reintegrated my body. Before disappearing the Lord Jesus Christ asked me some questions. He said, “Joshua, what was the message preached by John the Baptist?” I said, “John was preaching repentance.” He asked me again, “What did I preach when I was on the earth?” I said, “Lord, you used to say, Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Then Jesus asked me again, “What did the apostles preach in the Acts of the Apostles?” I said, “They preached repentance.”
I understood that to prepare the church for the rapture and the coming of the Messiah I had to preach the message of repentance. I can preach about all subjects but repentance is the core and the cornerstone of my ministry.
