This is one of the testimony that shock the world because of it heart piercing ordeal been unveiled by Pastor Abraham Yakubu from Kogi state who hails from a Muslim back group; and later become a christian and obtained the grace of God in beholding heavenly realm.
This divine revelation of Pastor Abraham Yakubu titled;
DO GLORY NOT YET simply means;
in your quest and zeal in serving God and making heaven DO NOT GLORY YET; because the devil hasn't given up hope on you.
The devil still believes you can fall from that high mountain of Holiness and righteousness. As you read this testimony; also ensure you pray afterward for the special grace never to missed your heavenly glory at last in heaven.
Can you now imagine the number of dead per day? In Heaven, there
is neither day nor night. Reflect this in retrospect to our own world –
a
day means morning and night. In Heaven, on a very good “day”, only five
people might make Heaven; sometimes three, two or even one person! Sometimes nobody at all.
But on the other
side to hell fire, the multitude that troop in there is like the sand on the sea shore. As a
believer, there is a moment when you were saved and all your sins were
completely forgiven. After your salvation, all the sins you committed
and did not repent of them before you died, will all appear on the
television screen”
1 Peter 1: 10 “Brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure.” Daniel 5: 27 “TEKEL: Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.”

However, Some take their liberty in Christ to be an occasion of the flesh
(Galatians 5:13), forgetting (or is it neglecting?)
2 Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12: 14. That is why some “born-again”
will be “weighed in the balances (of their lives after being born again), and (will be) found wanting.)” (Daniel 5:27).

CHAPTER 1:
INTRODUCTION
I was born into a muslim family in Iheima, Kogi State, Nigeria. My name
is Iliasu and my father’s name (surname) is Yakubu. My brothers are
Karim and Lamidi. I know that many of you have been in the work of the
Lord before I was born. Even when we talk about being an Evangelist or
Pastor, many of you have been Evangelists or Pastors long before my
mother gave birth to me.
This morning, God himself addressed me and explicitly said “Abraham, don’t celebrate yet.”
The message I heard from God deeply touched my heart. It’s on this very
message from God we shall talk about this morning (or whatever time of
the day it is that you are reading this) as I address you: a minister of
God who has been serving God for a long time; you, who have just
started in the ministry with God; and you who may not even be born again
and so carelessly living your own life without God. The Lord is saying
that we should not glory yet.
That in this ministry, we should not say
yet, “I am competent”, “I am somebody”, or “I have arrived”; except we
see the end of the work. It is not just to finish the work, but to
finish well that matters. That is when the owner of the work takes us to
His side and we drop our sword by the knee of Jesus. Then, we can now
show our glory and say “Praise the Lord!” Read 1 Corinthians 9:15 – 17,
24 -27; Philippians 3:10; 2 Timothy 4:1 – 8 and Luke 13:22.
Most of our emphasis shall be on
these passages, so don’t forget what the Lord told me, “Abraham, don’t
celebrate yet.” The mission on our hands is a mission with absolute
faithfulness and truthfulness, and is a work that must be done with
fear. It is a mission with high expectation that at the end of the day,
the owner will salute us and say, “Well done thou good and faithful
servant” (Matthew 25:21). I pray in the name of Jesus that we don’t
end-up miserable at the end of our lives. When you work as a minister,
don’t do it because of any other thing rather than being faithful and
truthful to the one that called us.
I have determined that whatever it
will take, I will make God happy for choosing and sending me to do His
work. Anything contrary to this will be bad. I will like to say
something that it is very unfortunate; that somebody left God’s place
(God created all men and women, so we are all products of Heaven) and
came to this world; and yet ended up in Lucifer’s place. This is
unfortunate! It is even most unfortunate to call such a person a
Christian who has testified to be born-again sometime; and at the end of
the day, he cannot return to God whom he has confessed to be his Savior
and Lord. It is rather unfortunate!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE ACCIDENT
 |
| This Is Not The Scene |
Father told me, “Abraham, don’t celebrate yet.” We all
came to this world one day and one day we shall all leave this world.
Everyone is entitled to death and there is no way out- death is
inevitable. I will die, everybody must die someday and this death we are
talking about can come at anytime. Death met me inside a vehicle; it
can meet you inside your houses, in a ship or airplane. There is no
place death cannot occur.
I will like to share with you what happened to me. What you should first
know is that I obtained mercy and got grace from God. So many people of
God and many ministers of God have left God and did not return back to
Him. But He gave me the grace and some other people like Bro. Sambo,
Moses, Sis. Cecilia etc. who left this world and were permitted by God
to see so many things in Heaven and hell, and were later returned back
to this world.
A man of God called me for a revival and I went. There is this man of
God, who attended this revival with me – Rev. J. F. G. Ikupemesi and God
worked miraculously in this revival. But as I was going back, my mind
was telling: “Be prepared, you are going to die.” But I said,
“You demon that is speaking to me, the Lord rebuked you. I will not die
but live, so as to praise the name of the Lord.” But I heard, “Abraham,
this is not the voice of the devil, I am the One, your Maker. This
vehicle you enter will be involved in an auto accident and you will die.
Therefore, be prepared to meet your God.” My people in the Lord
I obtained mercy. A prayer point came to my mind and this is how it
went (I have never prayed like that before in my life):
“In the name of Jesus, every sin of my grandmother, the sins that
they conceived me with and all the sins I have committed since the day I
was born until this very moment, that will make me to leave this world
without making Heaven, oh Lord, wash me with your Blood and forgive all
my sins.”
That was how I continued to pray. As soon as we left Guru-Maharaji spot on the (Lagos – Ibadan)
expressway, the Tyre of the vehicle exploded. My people in the Lord, not
that I was sleeping, the vehicle somersaulted and after sometimes, the
appeared to me as if it was the break of dawn. I looked at the other
side, I saw several vehicle sparked along the road. The vehicles going
to Lagos parked. When the vehicle first somersaulted and landed, it
landed by my side, so that affected my back and spinal cord. I heard a
noise from my back and there was an iron in my front pressing my chest,
and I was compressed in between.
I was groaning in pain and crying,
“Please, come and help me; please, come and carry me …” Though I was
crying for help, people were not hearing me. Please hear this; it is now
that you still have the opportunity to talk. You can still call on God
now, you can still amend your ways and you can still plead with God
today. But a time is coming, when you will be talking to people standing
beside you, and yet they will never hear you.
After sometime, I managed to release myself and the iron that was
pressing me. That was how I came out of the vehicle. I saw some people
sitting down and they were showering them with water. I never knew that
there was blood all over me and I was telling somebody that nothing
happened to me;
but he was telling me to be patient I said again, “There
is nothing wrong with me, and for you to be assured that there is
nothing wrong with me, let me take some steps and walk.” When I took the
first step I realized I was in the mood to run and I started running,
somebody shouted, “Get hold of him and don’t let him fall.” Someone met
me, griped me and laid me down. I was feeling very thirsty and shouting,
“Please help me, I am thirsty, please help me, I am thirsty.”
And a
Good Samaritan brought some water for me to drink but another person was
opposing it, saying “Don’t give him the water, because if he should
drink the water, he will surely die.” People of God, that thirst of
water that day was because of the great loss of blood. Don’t forget the Savior said on the cross, that He was thirsty. The thirst of our Lord
Jesus Christ is all of us seated here and all souls in the world, how we
should in our journey on this earth, so that we do not end our journey
in modernity and end-up in hell fire.
I later heard that a man and his wife (who were both medical doctors)
were coming all the way from Ilorin and the Spirit of God ministered to
him, saying “One of my servants is in that vehicle, quickly take him to
the hospital before he dies.” He was the one that took me to the
hospital, he also paid my medical bills and he I never knew him before.
My prayer is that, one of these days, as I will be testifying like this,
that he will come out of the congregations At this juncture, this is
the end of a part of my life story, and I pray that all of you will not
have a reason for Hospital this year; and for those of you who are
medical doctors, I pray you shall be successful.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 3:
THE REVELATION
Now,
let’s take our minds back to the hospital. Let’s imagine somebody on a
four-wheel bed, placed on a drip and the only thing he can do is cry
“Help! Help!! Help”!!! They brought him breakfast and he cannot eat.
Lunch also, he cannot eat it; likewise dinner. I can imagine a doctor or
nurse coming and carrying out cross examination on the patient, even if
they know the patient is going to die (as it is in their professional
ethics),
they will say to the family, “No problem, he will be fine. Just
be prayerful.” Now imagine that the doctor has gone, the nurses have
also gone and now is the time for such a person to go to his eternal
home. It is good to always think about. Please do not be angry with me,
because death is inevitable. This is one topic we don’t think about
every day.
When it is time for him to go (and usually this is what happens), he
will continue breathing high, and at that moment the family will be
disturbed and will run around, calling on the doctor, the nurses and on
anybody available to revive him. And from breathing high, he takes his
last breath and that is all. At that moment, he will give up the ghost.
The real self will come out of the physical body naked, and we shall
return in nakedness. That day, he shall leave this dust called in
nakedness, he will want to touch the doctor, but the doctor cannot feel
him any longer. He will be asking himself, “What is wrong with me?”
After sometime, in realization, he will ask himself, “Am I dead?”
He
will lift himself up and down, and later throw himself through the wall.
You see, it is only your body that cannot penetrate a wall, but your
real self will diffuse through the wall at a very high speed, an
uncontrollable speed! And suddenly he will see himself on white sand
with small granite stones. People of God, this place I am talking about,
there is no hill nor mountain, no water nor tree – it is just an empty
flat land.
And the spirit will be wandering and asking himself, “Where
am I? What am I doing here?” Some people will be coming from far and
they will be approaching gradually; and his heart will be troubled.
After sometime, somebody will touch him at the back and he will ask the
person, “Please where am I?” The Angel will tell him, “Son of man, you
are dead; you have left your body behind. Now look this way.” When you
look at the other way, it is also without end. You look at your back,
the field has no end.
The Bible says that the Lord is your shadow at your right hand. Listen
to me, in this world, your shadow never means anything to you; or have
you ever thought about your shadow? Shadow means nothing to you. That is
why at the last day you too will mean nothing to your shadow. And when
you look at your shadow and ask, “Please, who are you?”
The answer will
be, “Yes I am your shadow and I have been with you all your life.” If
you happen to be a backslider or a sinner who has never repented before,
the shadow will twist the hand back and puncture the thumbs, then
insert a padlock and lock both of your hands with the padlock. Having
handcuffed him, the shadow will now grab him and say, “The journey has
started.” The two of them will lift up and begin a race at high speed.
As a Christian, I backslid five times: I backslid twice when I was
working in the office and thrice as a Pastor. It is possible also that
you may have backslided before. A Pastor that’s beating his wife, has he
not backslided? He that embezzles Church or public money, has he not
backslided? If you have backslide in any way, the Lord is calling you
back to return home. He told the children of Israel to return to Him:
“Return, you backsliding children and I will heal your backsliding …”(Jeremiah 3:22) “Why then is this people of Jerusalem slid back by a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, they refuse to return (Jeremiah 8:5)
- The first type of backsliding is when such an individual has
backslidden in the heart and yet nobody knows it. You may have
backslidden in the heart and still preaching and conducting evangelisms.
“They made (Him) the keeper of the vineyards; but (His) own vineyard
have (He) not kept.” (Songs of Solomon 1:6b; Proverbs 14:14).
- The second type of backsliding is when there are noticeable physical
evidences. It is the situation when you used to be a prayer warrior and
a very strong man of God, such that when you go on your knees to pray,
you can pray from morning till evening before standing up. But now, the
only time you pray is when you are in the Church and leading prayer
session, or the prayer session being lead by someone else. If you fin
yourself in that position, you have already backslidden. A Christian or a
man of God, who enters a car and can no longer preach the gospel; a
Christian or a man of God who can no longer do personal evangelism, has
he not backslidden? “Once I was in a vehicle going to Lokoja, I was not
preaching but listening to a message. But I heard, “Abraham, you are now
a big man for you can no longer stand to preach.” Immediately, I stood
to my feet and started preaching, not knowing that there was a man in
that vehicle who was going to commit suicide because of what he was
going through in his life. If a Christian or a minister of God has
become so big that he can no longer do personal evangelism again, that
person is already a backslider. When such individual has been reading
the Bible very well before, but now he no longer has the urge to read
the Bible anymore. Anytime he makes an attempt to read, he will just
sleep off; that is a sign of backsliding. That person may be behaving
anyhow in the Church and will not even take any correction. He or She
will be living an untruthful and or immoral life.
- The third type of backslider is that, that person has out rightly and stubbornly stopped coming to Church and is deliberately “forsaking the assembly of ourselves together.” (Hebrew 10:25)
In the name of Jesus, I pray for all backsliders, that the God who
returned me to Himself after backsliding, will return you in Jesus name!
