MINISTERING: PROPHET JOSEPH ENOCH APATA
THEME: THE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH
BIBLE TEXTS: ISAIAH 65:20-25
“There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.”
Isaiah 65:20-25 KJV
GOD will not do anything until He commits His word unto His servant, all that we see coming to pass today are what He has told us some years ago and we wrote them down and we see them coming to pass today, and even today the Lord GOD is still speaking.
“Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.”
Amos 3:7 KJV
Remember I told you about the people of the synagogue of satan that are in the church, it’s GOD that made them to come , they did not force themselves into the church.
“Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.”
Revelation 3:9 KJV
They say they are Jews but they lie, so note them, they like lying. This is why I want original VDMITES to take note because strangers come and go and they pollute, destroy and go but the owner will not want it to be destroyed, remember the story of the two prostitutes that went to King Solomon for their child and when they asked the child to be divided , the first one that’s not the owner of the child agreed but the original mother of the child said no.
“Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son is the dead: and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is the dead, and my son is the living. And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king. And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other. Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my Lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it. Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.”
1 Kings 3:23-27 KJV
There’s this passion you see in people when protecting what is theirs, if I am your father and Prophet, you will protect the interest of what matters to me, it comes natural, it flows naturally. So I want us to be very careful, you and I should be observant and know the strangers amongst us , don’t let their lies overwhelm you because they are of their father the devil, there’s no truth in them, when he speaks he lies, he is a liar from the beginning and all his children will be like him.
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
John 8:44 KJV
See your discernment in wanting GOD to rule you will go a long way in your life. A lot of people in the church are just eye-service and not heart service but let it be known to you that there’s no one GOD will not settle and if it takes 20 years to do heart service , eye service or nose services, you will meet it there.
“He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.”
Revelation 22:11-12 KJV
My point is there are people of the synagogue of satan in our midsts, they lie and they love to lie , so don’t let anybody in the name that they are Jews unknowing that they are from the synagogue of Satan mislead you in the church, be very careful, there are a lot of synagogue of satan that call themselves Jews but they lie and by their fruit and you shall know them, by the way the conduct themselves in the little things committed into their hands.
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?”
Matthew 7:15-16 KJV
This is why when I see the way people handle things of GOD today I shake my head in pity for them because the Bible say cursed is the one who does the work of GOD deceitfully
“Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.”
Jeremiah 48:10 KJV
This zeal of GOD that we have maintained for over 30years and it’s still burning in us and some of you are just small pikins (children) and your zeal is dying already. See be it known to you that you need power face the challenges in this world, and there are three throws of power
1: The earthly
2: Sensual ( spiritual realm beyond this world )
3: Heavenly ( The Power of GOD )
“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.”
James 3:15 KJV
This is why when GOD wants to punish you what you will first see is rejection and then sickness will follow, your blood will be against your water , your bone against your flesh etc..
“And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Beth-lehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.”
1 Samuel 16:1 KJV
“And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do. Then said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy?”
1 Samuel 28:15-16 KJV
Please don’t look for GOD’s trouble, even at this age 52 I’m still very careful, so you young children be more careful, fear the one that you can sleep and He will take your life, and you’re making boast that you’re young and beautiful, this and that, why not fear GOD?
“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”
Matthew 10:28 KJV
Many of you it’s GOD that’s punishing you, you have looked for His trouble , please don’t look for GODs trouble, avoid it with all carefulness please because you’ll suffer for it if you look for His trouble.
We that are relevant in the things of GOD today it’s because we subjected that demon, they wanted to raise their head too but we didn’t allow it, we suffered them, starve them by fasting , I even destroyed my name and reputation by obeying GOD because they love reputation and they love to always take the glory, so when they saw that I obeyed GOD and cared not about my reputation, they left.
“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.”
Philippians 2:5-13 KJV
That was what the devil was challenging, he didn’t want JESUS to have that name above every other name. Whatever you are doing see it as a service unto the lord, don’t do eye service , do it with heart service, the reputation was brought down , GOD saw it and now exalted His name. See sometimes GOD will give you a sickness just to spoil your reputation, the one He gave me I accepted it.
“And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
2 Corinthians 12:7-9 KJV
There are so many of you here that you wouldn’t be here if not for what you went through. So what reputation do you have that you are using to brag I. The house of GOD ? GOD will rubbish it for you.
So let’s go back to our texts in ISAIAH 65:20-25 , because we must separate VDMITES from strangers, so for this Bible verse that GOD gave to me the Prophet, I am not talking about strangers here but true VDMITES because strangers misbehave, they are disobedient, arrogant and proud and you are being proud to the one that owns the your life, your blood, bone and even the water and flesh in your body to your finger nails.
The first message is in verse 20
“There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.”
Isaiah 65:20 KJV
1: There shall be no dead in VDM, it’s a covenant, sudden death will not visit our houses .
2:VERSE 21
“And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.”
Isaiah 65:21 KJV
One of the grace that will follow all VDMITES, He say we shall build houses and inhabit them. There are some people that built houses and can’t live there but we shall build houses and inhabit them.
We shall plant vineyards and we shall eat from them. What is the Vineyard? Our children are the vineyards, we shall eat from their wealth because they are the vineyard that surround us.
“Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: Thy children like olive plants round about thy table.”
Psalm 128:3 KJV
This is why I am telling some parents here don’t condone the excesses of your children, the Bible say it’s the rod that will drive the madness away from the heart of a child.
“Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; But the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.”
Proverbs 22:15 KJV
Our children are our vineyards, as a child are you a singer , sing well, you don’t know the day it will speak for you . Can anything speak for you in the day of troubles? The day hell will conclude to take you over what will speak for you ? Whatever you are doing, do it as unto the lord, teach your children well , you are my spiritual children this is why I am teaching you well , what will speak for you in the day that hell surround you? Who tell you they will not come, they will come, JESUS said the prince of this world cometh but found nothing in me.
“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.”
John 14:30 KJV
Remember when we are talking about vineyard, it means our children and you will eat well in their hands, they will not be useless, they will not be a liability to you , in JESUS name, Amen.
3:VERSE 22
“They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.”
Isaiah 65:22 KJV
Nobody will represent or replace me when my children are graduating, getting married and doing great things. When my daughter was being called to bar I went there with my wife ( her mother ) and they told me they only have one ticket which is for one of the parent and I said I must get my wife a ticket even if it’s to buy it and I got her the ticket and we went in together, sat down and we both watched as our daughter was called to bar and I told her see your daughter, this is a dream come true , you’re here alive no one taking your place, I told her I will make sure I do everything to make all your dreams come true.
And someone said I brainwashed her, I brainwashed her and her daughter is a barrister already , certified by the Nigerian Supreme Court, I brainwashed her and her children are in private universities, I love that brainwash, see the brain wash of the Prophet is the best. The way GOD brainwashed me , I thought I was going to be a driver because I am a very skillful driver but He told me I will make you a prophet, I said how , me that doesn’t know how to read and write, He told me leave that one. He brainwashed me and removed all the archaic system in me that today I wonder how I know the things I know. A brainwash that will make my star to shine is a good brainwash. All my thought was that I would end up as a driver but GOD removed that ideology and told me you will be great , you will build estates , you shall give cars out and see me today , see in your own private time tell GOD to use this man to brainwash me because a lot of you believe in the wrong thing.
“Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.”
1 Corinthians 3:18-19 KJV
Don’t fight a Prophet, GOD will never support you , all I am teaching is let all of us children make us Proud and they shall make us proud in JESUS name, Amen.
4: VERSE 23:
“They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.”
Isaiah 65:23 KJV
I will not labour in vain, how can somebody train a child all through university and the child dies during Nysc, how can you raise a child, they get married and die through child delivery ? That will not be our portion in VDM, say it again, I WILL NOT LABOUR IN VAIN.
5: VERSE 24 :
“And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.”
Isaiah 65:24 KJV
GOD say He will hear Us, before We Pray He will answer. See I don’t want anyone of you to suffer, don’t just ask for physical or material things in this my 200 days of prayer starting by August 1, ask GOD sincerely because sometimes even we don’t know who we are.
6: VERSE 25:
“The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.”
Isaiah 65:25 KJV
This verse have Two(2) messages :
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together , the lion shall eat straw like bullock and the dust shall be the serpent’s food. See these are the different kind of people that are inside the church, wolf, lion, snakes, beasts , mami-water, are all inside the church.
The lamb: they obey GOD , they are born again, they speak in tongues, they love tithing , these are the lambs.
Learn this truth today, He said they shall feed together , hear the word of GOD together , I am feeding both the land and the wolf here. There are not lions, lions Dey inside church oooo, and there’s the serpent , the beast , so who are you ? When you see someone they comes inside the church and they sit a an improper way , they have told you who they are , they want to strike, they sit that way looking for who to attack, so when you see such people, gently correct them , don’t let them come and accomplish their task in your life. You see a child they are correcting and that child is rejecting that correction, don’t let your children mingle with such people, they will contaminate your children.
“Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.”
1 Corinthians 15:33 KJV
We that are lamb are few , we that came genuinely to serve GOD are few, we that pay tithes are few, we that care about the work of GOD we are few.
We lamb support and love the Prophet and we care about the work of GOD passionately, we always think about our fathers job. The lamb find time to pray in the church.
Truth be told these are the category of the people you find in the church, this is why when you meet people in the church, pray well, tell the church elders about them and they in turn tell the prophet, why, because I have seen a lot of people that it’s the person they met in the church that destroyed their life. I never knew those days that you can meet lion, wolf, serpent, bear etc.. in the church , and this people will destroy you, they don’t care , that’s their mission.
Please ask yourself who are you ? And when you know the truth, say you want to be a lamb because who you are will not depart from you, it will sell you out, it will disgrace you in the market square. Please learn this today, anywhere you see two or three people gather just know there’s a wolf, lamb, Lion , serpent among them.
The second message is this when you are now someone that obeys GOD they shall not hurt you or destroy you in this holy place.
“And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?”
1 Peter 3:13 KJV
Many people that have been hurt in the church is because they over trusted , they assumed, don’t let people come to the church and hurt you. The Bible already predicted they shall not hurt you in my holy place , so if you get hurt, its your fault. Don’t let them be seeing you in the border of trouble, if you are found in the border of trouble what you don’t want you eyes to see, you will see it, you are the one that allowed yourself to get hurt in the church.
I have told you adult matters in the church is none of your business, asking about how they spent the church money is none of your business, you have passed your boundary by doing so and what you will get next is curses and the next thing you’ll do is to be walking about and be blaming the church for your misfortune, claiming the church hurt you unknowing to you that you are the one that passed your boundary.
“He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, Is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.”
Proverbs 26:17 KJV
“But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.”
1 Peter 4:15 KJV
If you don’t like the way they do things leave the place, the Church can’t hurt you, you are the one that wants to force your ideology on them. Don’t ever think that the church hurt you or destroy you, no, you are the one that went beyond your boundary, claiming what you don’t have right to claim, which means you are lawless and what follow lawless people is shame and disgrace.
“The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”
Matthew 13:41-42 KJV
We can’t hurt you if you maintain your lane, don’t put your mouth in adult matters, they will curse you, remember some of them are wolf, some are lion, some are serpent, don’t put mouth in anybody’s matter , what you came to church for is what you should face.
It has been predicted that there will be no hurt on His holy mountain and that true because over 30 years of me being born again have I been hurt , no, why I don’t pass my boundary.
GOD OF THE PROPHET BLESS YOU
