Odumeje and the Native Doctors (4)
Those who serve Satan do not appreciate the harm they are doing to themselves, their children, and future generations. Yes, now you can enjoy the so-called power, influence, wealth and protection, but the end will surely be disastrous and full of regret. You and your children will eventually pay for it. Today, when I see people bragging about all these things, I cry for them because I know what their end will be like. Or better yet, you can go see the families they took from Satan. So many pains, problems, mishaps, strange illnesses and mysterious things happening around you. Look at your children, your grandchildren, your families, your once flourishing empires, the demons are still hunting and following you. The spirits do not forget pacts and promises. They are meticulously remembered and kept for generations, unless a stronger hand breaks them. Be careful!
The word of God says that those who serve idols will be like them and many other punishments. He can go and read them in the twenty-sixth chapter of Leviticus from verse one to the end. It’s actually scary! It is due to premature death, failure, mishaps, disappointments, fear, defeats, abortions, illnesses, diseases, sudden deaths, etc. Those who serve these gods, idols, and demons have much to worry about. So, it is not enough for pastors and Christians to boast that fire will come down from God. We must immediately begin to return to God. We are so far from him. Even with our mega churches and endless programs, we are still not having any serious impact. We are simply competing and building empires for ourselves. We must abandon our rebelliousness, worldliness, and wickedness. We must return to him in holiness and repentance or risk being run over by these rampaging agents of Satan. We must learn from the mistakes of people like Samson; who did not know when the spirit and power of God left him because of his carelessness and immorality. You remember how this great man of destiny got up that day to do what he used to do and he didn’t know that the presence and the anointing had left him.
So, we must also know that the power and fire of God respond only to holiness and dedication. Now, how many of us who boast can call God’s presence on that level, with all this materialism, boasting, pride, and worldliness? I’m just asking. You know talk is cheap. I want to ask you now, are you sure that the fire of God will answer you with all these gossip, selfishness, fights, jealousy, immorality and envy? I doubt. For me the most important thing is not to brag about calling fire, walking on water and seeking the dead to resurrect, but to go back and rebuild our relationship with God. The Elijah you refer to did something before the fire blazed on Mount Carmel. First, he was actually selflessly fighting to restore the fear of God in Israel. Then he took the time to rebuild the altar of God that was desecrated and destroyed. Yes, he took the time to do that. Systematically and meticulously he followed the divine pattern. Yes, God has a pattern. He cannot be worshiped in any way as we do today. It’s not about you, it’s about him. We must search his words, discover and follow his pattern if we really want the fire of revival, presence and judgment to come down from him.
