This divine revelation of my encounter with heaven and hell is great challenging; but i am ever grateful unto our Lord Jesus Christ for his mighty power and grace upon my life. Am about to share my fourth revelation and in which i encounter severe attack from the devil. Though as the Lord will have it, i am a conqueror all to the divine glory, mercy and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Christ's Visit To Me In The Teaching Hospital.
The devil had told his cohort in their emergency meeting in hell that they should pursue and attack me in order to remove the message the Lord gave
me for the world. He told them if they could, they should kill me.
Truly I saw this in reality. I was involved in a ghastly accident
and have experienced many kinds of satanic attacks.
My Right Leg Became Paralyzed
The one I am going to present here concerns the
paralysis of my right leg which happened in the second week of
October, 2003, about six months after my visits to heaven and hell.
The Monday of this week, after my personal time with God, I went to
attend lectures. I sat on a bench with one of my friends. I removed
my notebook and placed it on the table to take notes.
The hall was a
big one and only that friend and I sat on that bench. To my surprise,
that notebook could not be seen again. I asked him of the notebook I
kept on the table before us and he said he did not know anything about
it. I did not believe him because nobody had come to where we were
sitting. I asked him to check his bag. He did so and did not see it.
Then I perceived it was a spiritual battle.
We were fully loaded with lectures and practical.
I had been busy all this while and did not have time to pray
over this mysterious happening. After practical at about 5.00 pm I
went straight to the fellowship. Twenty minutes after I was seated in
the hall, as activities went on, I felt like vomiting. I went out
and vomited blood and some fluid. I cleaned up myself and returned to
the hall and sat down. Not up to twenty minutes later I felt an
electric shock and a sharp pain over me. Except that I exercised
great control over myself I would have cried out loudly.
The message
was about starting. I tried to move my right leg, but there was no
sensation on it at all. In fact it was as if I did not have a right
leg. I tapped a friend sitting by me and said, "Something has
happened to me. Please, go out and get me a stick." The brother, not
knowing what had happened, went out and got a tiny stick for me.
When I struggled to stand up with the support of that stick, it broke.
Then the brethren knew that something terrible had happened to me.
They came and carried me on the back to one of the fellowship
apartments.
When I was in this apartment, I saw the devil come with a
spear to throw at me. I shouted, "Jesus!" He disappeared. The
campus fellowship leaders who were praying for me heard me shouting,
"Jesus," but they did not know what happened. I did not let them know
about it either. They again came and backed me to my hostel. I
thought the whole thing would be over that evening, but it did not
happen so. The following day I could not go for my lectures. I could
not eat because I had no appetite. I sat, thinking, `Does it now mean
I will hence be using crutches or wheel chair?" I told myself that
it would not be so. I did not blame God for my affliction at all.
James 5:10, 11 "Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of
the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience. 11 Behold, we count them happy which
endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end
of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
I Was Taken To The University Teaching Hospital
The brethren reasoned by evening of Tuesday that I
should be taken to the University Teaching Hospital. My father was
contacted by phone. The State Overseer of our church in my state of
origin, Taraba, was informed of this incidence by phone. The Takum
Region Overseer was informed. The Borno State Overseer was also told
what was going on with me.
Much prayer ascended to heaven for my
deliverance. The brethren prayed violently. I know Satan suffered
much torture through the prayers of the saints. When I was in the
hospital I saw practical Christian love manifested towards me by the
brethren. I enjoyed their love. My fellow students were bringing
food, fruits, etc. for me. Thanks to God for such brotherly love.
John 13:34, 35 "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love for one another." Hebrews 13:1-3 "Let brotherly love continue. 2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.3 Remember them that are in bonds, as
bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being
yourselves also in the body."
I was taken to the hospital around 1:00 am,
Wednesday morning. The doctor on call was told of my condition. I
was taken to the emergency unit for his examination. After he had
examined me he told some of our fellowship leaders that he was
confused and that he did not understand what was wrong with me. He
told them to carry me back to the hostel. But the brethren pleaded
with him to allow me there that night, since it was already late and
there was no means of conveying me to the hostel; besides they hoped I
would be given proper admission the following morning. He consented
to their request.
Strange Behavior Of A Nurse In The Hospital
The following morning I was given proper admission
and was taken to one of the units. At this time I was sitting on a
wheel chair. The paralyses leg was stiff. Where I was taken to, a
nurse was passing by and kicked the affected leg. I wondered at such
act. A nurse kicking a sick patient in my condition! I determined to
confront him when he returned. When he returned I said, "Sir, you
passed this way and kicked my leg and did not apologize for it: is
that how you treat your patients in the wards?" He became angry and
said, "Why did you put your leg here?" He lifted up his foot and
kicked the leg properly. "I have people in this hospital that will
terminate your appointment if I file your case," I warned him.
We
have brethren who are consultants in the University of Maiduguri
Teaching Hospital where I was admitted. It dawned on me that the
devil was at war with me. My elder brother was there caring for me. I
told him I had seen satanic manipulation in the hospital and that he
should carry me back to the hostel. He rejected my request and since
I could not walk by myself, I remained still. I was given a bed
where I laid.
1 Peter 5:7-11 "Casting all your care upon him; for He careth for you. 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 Whom resist steadfast in the faith,
knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished by your brethren
that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who had
called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have
suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."
Efforts of Doctors in the Hospital
About thirteen doctors came to carry out a team
investigation on me to find out the cause of the paralysis. They
carried out various tests but could not arrive at a definite cause.
They had nothing to say to be the cause of my leg being paralyzed.
The last day they came they gave the suggestion that I should be taken
to radiology department so that the leg could be exercised and with
the help of a walking stick it might be restored.
They also
directed that I should have brain scanning that might help to
ascertain the cause of the paralysis. The cost of this brain scanning
was about fifteen thousand Naira. People flocked in to my ward to
visit and comfort me. The people in the ward wondered who I was that
was so loved and cared for by many people. Our state campus
coordinator also came to comfort me. The Lord indeed decided to
honour me in the sight of the people in the hospital.
Psalm 91:14-16 "Because he hath set his love upon Me,
therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he
hath known My name. 15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him : I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him My salvation."
Jesus Came To The Hospital And Healed Me
Now when I discovered that the doctors were not
clear of what was the cause and that much money had been spent
already on me I was provoked to seek the face of the Lord. It was
around 1.00 pm. I prayed and said, "God, I did not call myself into
your service; You called me into it." I went into singing hymns and
songs. One of the songs I sang goes thus:
When you are in need Call on Jesus
He has the power to lift you up
When you are in need,
Please, call on Jesus
He has the power to lift you up
When you are in need
Call on Jesus
He has the power to lift you up
Because He answers
When I call upon his name
He will hear, He will hear,
When I call upon His name
He will hear.
I did not pray much. I was singing and worshiping God and giving Him thanks. I closed the apartment to my
bed. While in the spirit of worship, I saw that somebody opened my
apartment and walked in to me. He came in with a right leg, a liver
and a heart in his hands. I wiped my eyes for a proper view of what I
was seeing, wondering whether I was seeing something real. He said
to me,
"I am JESUS. I came in response to the prayers of believers for you." Before I knew what, He had carried out an
operation on me. The bad leg was removed and the new leg was fixed
into my body. I did not feel the slightest pain. Praise the Lord!
This was done in the shortest time. Hebrews 13:8 "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and for ever."
The Forces Of Darkness Against Me
Jesus asked me, "Do you know the forces of darkness contending against you?"
I said, "No, I don't." He said, "Look at them." My eyes got opened. I saw some personalities in a dark place, as if in a hall. Their leader stood up and said, "That their pastor we must deal with him. The
entire church is taking a new move towards holiness. We must make
sure we win this battle."
They all shouted, "Yea, we must win!" He continued,
"We must make sure we kill this boy and stop him from making all that noise he is making. We must silence this boy.
Ephesians 6:12 "For we wrestle not against flesh and
blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the
rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
Luke 22:31, 32 "And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren."
The Authority of the Name of Jesus
Then Jesus asked me, "Do you know the authority of My name? Mention it and see what will happen." Since I had recovered, I sat down and prepared
myself properly to mention that name. I shouted "JESUS!" When I
mentioned the name of Jesus, there was an immediate reaction. In fact
it was like a bomb was thrown into their midst. Smoke covered the
place where they were gathered. They scattered and fled. Then Jesus
said, "That is the authority and power of my name."
Philippians 2:9-11 "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth,11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Further Heavenly Revelation Given To Me By Jesus
After this Jesus said, "Believers are sleeping. The trumpet would
have sounded, except that I pleaded with My Father. This is because
many people are going to hell. Believers are careless about their
lives." 2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His
promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to
us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come
to repentance."
Jesus told me this in tears,
"Even workers are going about without doing
restitution. I have made up My mind from the ages that no sin will
enter heaven.
Acts 24: 16"And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men." Matthew 5:23, 24 "Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee,24 Leave there thy gift before the altar,
and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come
and offer thy gift."
Jesus continued, "My coming is at
hand. I don't know when I shall come. It may be soon, I don't know.
But if you don't see Me appear today, then it may be tomorrow. Live
with the expectation of My appearing daily. Be careful with your
life. Never allow sin into your life. Live as a Christian. Don't
live like others, live as a Christian. Others may be saying other
things, but know surely that without holiness no man shall see the
Lord."
Mark 13:32-37 "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are heaven, neither the Son, but the Father,33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the Son of man is as a man taking a
far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his
servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not
when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at
the cock crowing, or in the morning,36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say unto you, I say unto all, watch."
Jesus again said, "I will show you once again what is happening." All of a sudden my eyes opened and I saw two
angels with books before them. In their front I saw a line of
believers who had died on earth and were awaiting the final word from
the angels. Jesus said, "Hear this very well."
- A Believer was Denied Heaven on Account of Malice.
The first person came before the angels. One of
the angels shook his head when he opened the book of record. This
man's record showed that he kept malice in his heart against someone.
The angels told him he was living in malice and for that reason he
would not enter heaven.
Colossians 3:13 "Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." 1 John 3:15 "Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him." Matthew 18:15-17 15 "Moreover if thy brother shall trespass
against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone:
if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. 16 But if he will not hear thee, then take
with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three
witnesses every word may be established. 17 And if he shall neglect to hear them,
tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let
him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican."
- A Believer With Clean Records Entered Heaven With Great Joy.
The second person came before the angels. The
angels smiled and told him his record was clean and that he was free
to enter into heaven. This man jumped through the pearly gate with
great joy. Others who were still on the line behind him were
shivering in fear.
2 Peter 1:5-11"And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and
abound, they make you that ye shall never be barren or unfruitful in
the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.9 But he that lacketh these things is
blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was
purged from his old sins.10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give
diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these
things ye shall never fall:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered
unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ."Matthew 25:21"His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over
many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord."
- A Believer Was Denied Heaven on Account of Fornication.
The third person came before the angel. When he
looked at his record he frowned at him and shook his head. This
man's record showed that he was living in fornication. He could not
enter heaven.
1 Corinthians 6:9, 10 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall
not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor
abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
- Another Believer was Denied Heaven on Account of Fornication.
The fourth person came before the angel. His record showed that he was living in fornication. He could not enter heaven. Ephesians 5:3 "But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetous-ness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints."
- A Believer Was Denied Heaven On Account of Divorce And Remarriage.
The fifth man divorced his wife and married
another woman. When he came before the angel he told him that in
heaven they knew him as an adulterer and that no adulterer can enter
heaven. Mark 10:11, 12 "And He said unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. 12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery."
Romans 7:2, 3 "For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her
husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is
loosed from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress:
but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is
no adulteress, though she be married to another man." 1 Corinthians 7:10, 11 "And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband,11 But and if she depart, let her remain
unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband
put away his wife."
- A Believer Was Denied Heaven On Account Of Lying.
The sixth person came before the angels. One of
the angels looked through his record and told him that he was a liar
and that no liar can enter heaven.
Proverbs 6:16-19 "These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto Him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren." Revelation 21:8 "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and
the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and
idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which
burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
- A Believer Was Denied Heaven Because He Willfully Refused To Do Restitution
The seventh person came before the angels. One of
the angels looked through the book of record and told him that
there was a restitution he was supposed to do when he was alive on
earth. But since he deliberately refused to do it, he could not enter
heaven.
Ezekiel 33:14-16 "Again, when I say unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is
lawful and right; 15 If the wicked restore the pledge, give
again that he hath robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without
committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. 16 None of his sins that he hath committed
shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and
right; he shall surely live."
Genesis 20:1-18 "But God came to Abimelech in a dream by
night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man, for the
woman which thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife. 7 Now therefore restore the man his wife;
for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt
live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely
die, thou, and all that are thine. 14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen,
and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them unto Abraham, and
restored him Sarah his wife."
Luke 19:7-10 7 "And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That He was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner, 8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the
Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I
have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore him
fourfold. 9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, for as much as he also is a son of Abraham,10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost."
Jesus told me that the names of backsliders are
being removed from the book of life and replaced with the names of
new converts. He said many ministers and believers would be taken by
surprise because of spiritual sleep and carelessness.
Luke 21:34-36 "And take heed to yourselves, lest at
any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and
drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you
unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,
that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that
shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man."
Jesus said, "You have seen all these things because I love
this generation. The devil prefers you to die than live. But I
will be with you and stand by you. Remember John 16:33: `These
things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the
world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have
overcome the world.' "
HE THAT HATH AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR.
