THE NEED FOR PURIFICATION

First lesson: Matthew 23: 8 “But be not ye called Rabbi: For one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.” Golden text: John 14: 26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all thing to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” Spiritual song Kpep nyin Obong, emaewet ebanga spirit ndikpep. 2.1 Translation Teach us 0 Lord, for it was written about the spirit to come and-teach, 2.2 There is only one teacher All that was written before had come to manifestation. And virtually all God's pronouncements have manifested. But man's problem is that he does not allow God to teach him. There are many people we call teachers, Lords and our masters which contradicts God's injunction which enjoins us not to call anybody teacher, Lord or master. He has stated it unequivocally that, He who is the Holy Spirit is the only Teacher. Our Lord Jesus Christ bore witness and testified about the Comforter, the Holy Spirit who is in our midst today. Christ had promised mankind that, the Holy Spirit would come and He would teach man virtually everything. But despite the teachings of the Holy Spirit, it appears nobody is ready to learn anything. There is no other teacher in the world other than the Holy Spirit. Since we have only one teacher, it becomes imperative that we hearken to the words of the Holy Spirit. If we scoff at the words of the Holy Spirit and adhere to man's teachings, we will perish. There is no portion in the Bible that says, one should be taught by a human being in the world. But, is there any of the so called church leaders, reverend, pastors, among others who had not been taught by somebody? And in one way or the other, have you not claimed to be a teacher? You have infracted God's injunction. What you are taught by man is to kill, steal, retaliate, murder, deceive, curse, abuse, fornicate, among other unwholesome acts. With all the unhealthy ideas given to you. you claim to know God. What is causing untold hardship, discrimination, suffering, among other negative things in the world today is the worldly knowledge which man imbibes and has nothing to do with Holy Spirit. Christ said: “All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them?” (John 10 : 8). My advice to you is that, you should endeavour to come here mainly to receive the true teachings of Christ from the only true source. The entire humanity must come here to receive these supernatural teachings. 2.3 Ignore your previous learning Forget about your knowledge of magic, occultism, spiritualism, mysticism, and such other esoteric learning and all the books or objects pertaining to them. These teachings lead to damnation and a wrong orientation for that matter, I advise you to humble yourself in order to learn my teaching so that you become a true and practical Christian. The claims of academic degrees acquired by you do not mean anything, because they are concerned with worldly knowledge and cannot give salvation. What are your teachers who awarded you these degrees? In utter negligence of God's instruction, we now have many teachers around. And you become a teacher in your house where you teach your children how to kill, steal, among other evils. Having known that everything about the world are lies, deceit and falsehood, Christ said, He did not come to disgrace any person. We have brought truth, love, peace, freedom, salvation and to change you to the true nature of God. Specifically this is what the Holy Spirit has come to do on earth. 2.4 My teachings are for heavenly things It is written that knowledge, wisdom, prophesy, languages and all forms of worldly things will pass away but love will remain for ever (1 Corinthians:13 : 8). When the disciples of our Lord Jesus the Christ ate without washing their hands, the Jews murmured against them. But Christ told them that it is not what enters into a man through the mouth that defiles, him, but what comes out from him. (Matthew 15:10 -11) Do you think that what makes a man pure is by using soap and sponge to rub the body and put on fragrant perfume? You furnish your house with the best furniture and give yourself an impression that cleanliness is next to godliness. Physical cleanliness has nothing to do with godliness which is holiness. That was why Christ said that the Jews were whited sepulchre which looks fine on the surface but beneath it is an eye'sore. Many people in the world are whited sepulchre. To wash only the outer body of a drinking cup without washing its inside amounts to waste of time. What is the sense in making the outter cup to be neat and attractive but the inside of it which contains food is dirty? In the same manner, the first thing we ought to do is to wash and purify our hearts and our body framework will be purified. Fornication, adultery, idolatry, stealing, gossiping, murder, immorality, disbelief and all other negative things emanate from the mind. Because our minds are defiled, we have fallen short of the glory of God. It is stated that, everything is holy or pure to him who has a pure heart. Anybody whose mind is polluted and defiled cannot conceptualise any good thing. Read Titus 1:15 and Romans 14; 14. And there is no amount of prayer, preaching that can change such a person for good. Such a person cannot appreciate any bit of good thing done to him and that is why our Lord Jesus the Christ said that “blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God “(Matthew 5: 8) The Holy Spirit does not teach about mundane things, possession and position. What are you going to do with all the mundane thing ' you are struggling for? Your mind is so preoccupied with the thought of amassing wealth that, you have no regard for the teachings of the Holy Spirit. Some times, people would boast of spending huge sums of money to train their wards in schools. The question is, what actually did they learn in schools? The knowledge imparted to students in schools are earthly, devoid of spiritual benefit. Therefore, you should first of all wash the inner part of the cup before outer part of it. You have been advised not to call anybody teacher for God alone is a teacher in the entire universe. 2.5 The teaching of the Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit teaches you not to fornicate, commit adultery or idolatry. He teaches you about the vanity of mundane acquisitions: that naked you came into this world and that, naked shall you return. He teaches you to be patient, peaceful, merciful, meek and righteous. These are what the Holy Spirit, the Sole Teacher of mankind teaches us. There is no other teacher besides him. Our problem is that we imbibe false teachings to ourselves. Your are also taught not to impute sins to any; He told us to love all people no matter their stature, status or place of birth. That, there should be no segregation or discrimination but that love should prevail. We have to adhere to the teaching of the Holy Spirit and the only Lord, and Teacher. Do you not realise that all the teachings of this world are based on deceit and falsehood? You may see some one who is gorgeously dressed in flowing garment, staff, in hand, a cap to match and polished shoes to make them appear gently or important. Right inside them they are rotten because they are filled with deceit and falsehood just as the scripture rightly puts: “while they behold you chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let not be that outward adorning for plaiting on of apparel: But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God great price.” 1st-Peter 3:2-4. 2.6 Your inner self It is not outward adoring that is regarded by God, but meekness, mercy, humility, love, peace, faith and other virtues .These are the most costly things that you can find in the kingdom of God. Can you now reason why Our Lord Jesus Christ asked you not to call any person teacher or master? There is no one who practises this injunction. You still see people come here to seek for cars, children, houses, money, power to rule and other mundane acquisitions. Nobody is interested in the true teachings imparted by the Holy Spirit, Remember that it is is said: “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” (John 14 : 26). It is written that as we took the semblance of the earthly man we should also put on the nature of the heavenly man. (Corinthians 15:49) This is the era of the Holy Spirit and He has taken dominion in all plants, planes and beings. No other thing can reign nor compete with Him. The flesh has finished its work promoting negative thoughts. The Holy Spirit has now come and is teaching righteousness, purity, holiness and positive aspect of life. The children you have begotten are helpless to you. You are all likened to graven images. You have eyes but cannot see, ears but cannot hear and feet yet you cannot walk. There is no part of your body that can function effectively without the Holy Spirit. But that is the same being you refused to adhere to His teachings. You should recall what Our Lord Jesus Christ said, that every tree not planted by His Father would be rooted up. (Matthew 15:13) 2.7 There is nothing unclean There is nothing in this world that is unclean. It is our defiled minds that see these things as defiled and unclean. All the troubles in the world are caused by defiled minds. And the Holy Spirit has come in order to purify the minds of men. How will your mind be purified? It is by adhering to the teachings of the Holy Spirit. If you free yourself from carnal things then you are worthy to be led by the Holy Spirit because He has nothing to do with the flesh. 2.8 The Holy Spirit has come He has come to use the spirit and power of words to change you from evil to righteousness. He is called the Sole Spiritual Head and not that Sole carnal Head. Therefore, you must live in spirit. If a frustrated blood - thirsty man is bent on killing a person he will surely do it even if you give him food, money and other essentials of life. Someone who hates you cannot stop hating you, no matter what you do to him. You may work for him, humble yourself before him and give him food or money. These do not bring you close to his heart. In spite of all the measures taken by the governments, has armed robbery stopped? There are the police and other law enforcement agents well equipped and empowered to deal ruthlessly with criminals. But has the rate of crime decreased? There are cells and prisons built all over the place yet more crimes are committed daily. Now the armed robbers dare both the soldiers and the police and challenge them to gun battles. In some cases, the law enforcement agents are beaten by the criminals who are armed to the teeth. In spite of the number of robbers killed by the governments, armed robbery and other violence continue to persist. Sometimes, the bandits would send warning letters to the police informing them to get set for their visit. Both the police and the soldiers have at one time or the other fallen victims to many robbery attacks. The only and lasting solution is in the Holy Spirit, for He alone can clean the hearts of men. When your heart is purified, your actions and utterances are pure, Therefore, the only way to forsake sin, is to accept the word of God, practise it and allow it to dwell in your heart. It is said that: “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10 :10) 2.9 The power of the living word You have been told that what the worldly people call witchcraft, mermaid, ghost, charm, oracles and the like do not exist, it is only a purified heart that can convince you that these things do not actually exist. Whoever is purified is completely free from problems. It is also through a purified heart that one discovers the presence of God. In other words, you can only see good things once your heart is clean. A clean heart cannot think evil. Therefore, whoever is purified has the fellowship with God. My teaching has nothing to do with flesh, I focus my attention on your inner being to change you from the root. In the early days of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, members were always afraid of attending services at 26 Mbukpa, because the sins committed by the individual members will be pointed out during sermon. Now, what is happening here at 34 Ambo Street: When I preach, everybody present is addressed. This is so because I look at the heart and my words are directed to this part. Once this is done, your sinful state and ailments are destroyed. Your hands, legs, eyes, mouth do not play any part in committing sin rather it is the heart. Your heart refuses to accept Christ's teachings and this causes troubles to the world. Once you see yourself as very knowledgeable, you have missed the point. It is stated in the scriptures that: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5: 3). First lesson: Matthew 23:8 “But be ye not called Rabbi: for one is your master, even Christ, and all ye are brethren.” 2.10 The reign of the Holy Spirit Your are expected to submit yourself wholly to God, and know that the Holy Spirit alone reigns. Our Lord Jesus Christ bore testimony for the Holy Spirit and acknowledged Him as the most superior force. Hence He said: “… be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. “ (Matthew 12:32). Christ further said: “ I have yet many things to tell you but ye can not bear them now. Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come”. (John 16 :12-13). The worldly people cannot practise the words of God and they are not meant for the kingdom of God. The time for the reign of the Holy Spirit which our Lord Jesus Christ promised is now. And if there is any one who wants to repent of his evil ways and adhere strictly to what the Holy Spirit teaches, he will have salvation. There is a promise that: “…merciful to their unrighteousness, and their iniquities will I remember no more.” (Hebrews 8 :10 -12). The Father uses multiplicity of ways to call people into this kingdom, such as sickness, poverty, accident, feast, court case, hunger and all sort of problems to invite .you into this second ark of Noah and without these methods it could have been very difficult for some people to have accepted the divine call. To solve these problems is not important, what is our main concern is to change man for good.- The material things which the Holy Spirit gives to us are mere appendages. In effect, as far as this kingdom is concerned, money, wealth, health, husband, wife, children, position, business, success are not our preoccupation. Our major concern is to use the gospels to change you so that you can repent because man was conceived in iniquity. (Psalm 51:5). As such, there is no righteous person on earth. The scripture has made it clear that: “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” However, there is still a chance for man to return to God. And that is, man has to believe and have faith in God. It was for this reason why Christ said that anybody who believes in Him will do greater works than Him. And that greater work is to change man which is a wholesome but a difficult thing to do. To raise a pauper to be in affluence is a small work. This is not the reason why the Holy Spirit calls you into this kingdom. The Holy Spirit has changed many people from sinfulness to righteousness. And very many people have seen the need for repentance. That is why we have the influx of people into the fold who are concerned with the words of God. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the Kingdom where the Holy Spirit teaches the words of God to the converts while the children of God are those who practise the words of God. Where there is a preacher there is bound to be hearers of the words of God: “For wherever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.” (Matthew 24 : 28). With the trend of events in the world, in a short while this place (34, Ambo Street) may not accommodate the influx of people who will troop in for baptism and the word of God which comes from the Holy Spirit. This explains why you are advised not to call anybody teacher because it is only the Holy Spirit who is the supernatural teacher. Your duty is to adhere to His teachings and practise same. The Holy Spirit teaches you not to steal, fornicate, fight, quarrel, struggle for position, bear malice, hate, commit murder, tell lies, or worship idols and you should abhor such unwholesome things. The Holy Spirit teaches you to love, have mercy, faith, hope, patience and to be at peace with all men at all times. See yourself as a brother to another person. There is no room for division or disunity as far as this kingdom is concerned. Your original motive was not to allow people identify you as a member of brotherhood that is why you come secretly to Holy Father. Once He sends out the former evil spirit in you, you no longer accept the spirit of fornication, adultery, idolatry, murder, telling lies, covetousness, anger, malice and quarreling. He does it quietly in a manner that even you yourself will not be aware of what is happening till you are changed. Inspite of your claims to be very knowledgeable, you cannot realise the actual time He takes absolute control of you. The whites had before now claimed to be very knowledgeable. But today they have seen their nakedness. Their wisdom has been rendered useless. They too must follow this new teaching. This explains the reason why many of them come in here to receive this recondite and everlasting teaching. They do not want to accept that they are sinners. The moment you realise that you are sinners and plead for forgiveness and repent completely, your problems are over. Whenever you remove the beam from your eyes then you will be able to see clearly. It will also mark the beginning of peace in your life. . 2.11 Your spiritual food Even if you are a farmer but fail to practise the word of God, you will be starved. But one who is not a farmer but is richly endowed with the word of God can never be hungry or thirsty. You should recall what-happened between Mary and Martha when our Lord Jesus Christ visited them. Martha was so busy in the kitchen preparing food for our Lord Jesus Christ, while Mary was sitting by our Lord Jesus Christ receiving the gospel. At a point, Martha sought for the consent of our Lord Jesus Christ for Mary to come and assist her in the kitchen. In response, our Lord Jesus Christ called her and said: “Martha, Martha thou art careful and troubled about many things: but one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Luke 10 :41 - 42). 2.12 The greatest gift The greatest thing is to come and receive the teachings of God. And those who come for the teachings are rated very high. Whosoever comes to the Father to receive the teachings of the Holy Spirit will not have problem of any kind. This teaching is the source of life. If you imbibe His teaching you will not fornicate, steal tell lies, commit murder, fight, or worship idols. There will be no problem in the world. 2.13 Nigeria is pitiable Look at the present situation of the world, Nigeria in particular. The blacks generally are heavily indebted to the whites. The whites themselves do not expect anything good to come from the black race, God does not look at it in that way. He has come with His divine teachings to free all the afflicted and bring all the races of the entire world to the state of equilibrium. Once you hear and practise His teachings you are free. He is the only truth. You have no price to pay for these teachings. They are delivered to you free. Once you receive His teachings, none can deprive you of anything. With his teachings your indebtedness is settled. You should recall what Moses told the Israelites, that, at the appointed time; God would raise a prophet from amongst them that would replace Him and that all should listen to Him. He further told them that whoever disobeys Him shall be cut off from the surface of the earth. But our Lord Jesus Christ said: it is expedient that I should go, for if i do not go, the Comforter will not come even the Holy Spirit of truth which the Father will send in my name, He will lead you to the knowledge of truth. (John 14: 26). 2.14 Jesus Christ was not a teacher So, you would now realise that your endless shout on the name of Jesus, does not change the trend of things as designed, approved and directed by God Himself. Our Lord Jesus Christ, Moses, Abraham, John and others had different assignments to carry out. They were by no means teachers. Even Our Lord Jesus Christ bore eloquent testimony of the Holy Spirit as the only teacher. It is not surprising that you continue to question the person of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu. He is nobody else apart from Himself. He is not even the teacher. The Holy Spirit is the only Teacher, he is the one to teach and change all to the required standard, set by God. All others that came before now were messengers. They were assigned by God to perform one form of duty or the other as a preamble to the main work set aside for the Holy Spirit Himself, to change and liberate us from all manners of sins and give us our place in His kingdom. Your saying that you will not listen to Olumba Olumba Obu, does not stop this work from being done. He that was destined to teach must of necessity teach and liberate mankind to his rightful place in the kingdom of God. If you do not listen to the Holy Spirit, it means you have yourself to blame. Bear in mind that it is not Olumba Olumba Obu that teaches, but the Holy Spirit. Golden text: John 14:26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I said unto you.” 2.15 The presence of God on earth Has the Holy Spirit as promised by our Lord Jesus Christ not come? Have you not been taught by Him? You are supposed to follow Him sheepishly. Have you so followed Him? Instead, your mind is so preoccupied with the thought of position, power and wisdom. Do you not pray that God should make you a teacher? Are you the one that was promised the world? It was written that the Holy Spirit shall come to tech and change the world. There is none vested with the power to carry out this wondrous assignment except He that was to come, the Holy Spirit. Who then is the Holy Spirit? It is the Almighty Spirit Himself. So, the teacher in question is none other than God Himself. No man in the whole world can teach another except God. There is no institution of learning that can teach man about the recondite wisdom of God apart from the Holy Spirit. All the books written and published by different people of this carnal world are fake and misleading. Do not be deceived by anyone who says that he is the Holy Spirit. The Spirit dwells in you. He is the one controlling the affairs of the entire world. He is the one teaching the entire world now. His entire creation. man, animals, birds, insects and plants are His students. 2.16 God is physically present Our problems emanate from the fact that we do not listen to Him. He is always giving from the least to the greatest. “For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will 1 remember no more.” (Hebrews 8:10-12). Who amongst you can deny the fact that these things have been fulfilled in this our present generation? The people of the world argue that God is not in a human form. They are of the concept that God is invisible. But today it is not so again. The government, individuals, churches etc, have known that God indeed is in existence in the world today. In the past, people claimed that God has no child hence they killed our Lord Jesus Christ accusing Him of false claim. Today everybody claims to be a child of God. We all now call on the name of God and expect Him to grant our various requests. What do you think is responsible for the turn of, events? It is nothing other than the work of the Holy Spirit. He is currently teaching the world, and making the necessary changes. Many have acknowledged the existence of God and His children are reverenced by all. God has always been in existence. He instructed Abraham to leave his home town to the land that He would give to Him. He sent Moses to Pharaoh to free the Israelites from the Egyptian bondage. He sent Elijah to punish all those that were disobedient to Him. He sent John the Baptist as the fore runner of our Lord Jesus Christ. He sent His only begotten Son to come and die and shed His blood for remission of the sins of the world? It is this same God, at this end of time, who has sent the Holy Spirit. 2.17 The reigning Monarch He has personally come to change and make man fit for His kingdom. It is therefore, mandatory that all should abide by His teachings. Do not think that God is fixed at a particular spot. He is in you, teaching and changing you. Everything created by Him are His students learning His divine instructions. Failure to imbibe these teachings leads one to perdition. You have no cause to argue anything with Him. All must unite in love in this His universal school. He will open our eyes and impart the truth about His kingdom to us. He has come to make the whole world one and this is a task that must be done. It is exactly what the Holy Spirit is doing now. In no time we all will be speaking one language and share everything in common. Our Lord Jesus Christ confirmed the Holy Spirit as the only teacher when He said: “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I Judge: and my Judgement is just, because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” (John 5 : 30). The Holy Spirit is the one teaching and so do not say that Olumba Olumba Obu is the one teaching you. The Holy Spirit is the one doing everything and we are all students who learn from Him. Accordingly, we have to adhere to His teachings strictly. Whatever He enjoins us to discard we have to do just that and if he approves that we should do a particular thing we have to do it because He is the truth. And truth is something that is unique. It does not change no matter how long is the period. The Holy Spirit wants you to co-exist with one another in love, peace and harmony. His teachings are true and give life because they weave around love. Our Lord Jesus Christ bore eloquent testimony about this truth. For your own good, you are advised to sin no more. Do not look for glory and praises for anything. You should know that everything is done by the Holy Spirit and He should be given His due glory. We are only witnesses to His wonderful works on earth. He alone has the right to teach. The teachings you receive here are given by the Holy Spirit. It is said that it is only the King that knows the secret of His kingdom. And this explains why Our Lord Jesus Christ confessed that he cannot do anything on His own without recourse to the Father. What you should learn from this statement is that Christ attributed His successes to the Father and gave glory to Him. This way, He did not in any way arrogate power to Himself as such, He treated everybody equally. In sum, the Holy Spirit is the only teacher and we are all students and His vessels. And do not accept to be called teacher. He is the only teacher. Are you not surprised at the brotherly relationship that exists among the African States? Asia, Europe, Australia among other continents in the world also enjoy this oneness. If coup d'etat is encouraged in Nigeria for instance, the much talked about National integration would become national disintegration. This will certainly lead to chaos and anarchy. Parents are enjoined not to provoke their children but to love and bring them up with the fear of God. Accordingly, children are expected to be obedient to their parents. Wives must be submissive to their husbands and remain faithful. On the other hand, husband must love their wives. These divine instructions must not be flouted by any party. All injunctions of God must be obeyed “Submit yourselves to every ordinances of man for the Lord's sake; whether it be to the King, as supreme or unto government, as unto them that are sent by Him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.” (1 Peter 2:13:14). 2.18 Obey your rulers If you say that you are a child of God, you must obey what the scripture says at Romans 13:1 -3 that: “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the ordinance or God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not terrors to good works but to the evil. Will thou then be afraid of the powers do that which is good and thou shall have praise of the same.” 2.19 Rulers: serve your people Those who vow never to honour their fellow men should take a second thought on their stand. The recalcitrant will not find it easy again. Tomorrow 10th July 1992 the traditional chieftains in Nigeria will converse here at the world Headquarters of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star to pay homage to Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, the Sole Spiritual Head. Their visit will create precedent in the world history. The presidents, governors, ministers, and other government functionaries are all servants of God. You are not appointed a governor in order to oppress and victimize others, but to love and seek for their welfare. All subjects are expected to obey their rulers. That is the teaching of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit master - minds every events in the world. The name of your church denomination or your village cannot change you and cannot fetch you salvation. Your status as a governor is not a condition for your salvation. The entire world has only one supernatural Teacher. Everybody is sustained and supervised by one force and that is, the Holy Spirit. It is therefore, expedient that you take all your problems to him and He will provide a lasting solution. You must not do anything according to carnal dictates but you must comply with the instructions of the Holy Spirit. This injunction is given to every creation of God including the fish, the bird, the beasts among others. It is stated in the scripture that whoever walks in the directives of the Holy Spirit does not err. Such a person is not under any law. All the people who are led by the Spirit are children of God. 2.20 Fourth wise man You have read about the other fourth wise man who was delayed on the way to see our Lord Jesus Christ with gifts in the cause of assisting an Hebrew man. He wanted the Holy Spirit to direct him positively whether to help the dying Hebrew or to continue his journey in search of the new born King - Christ Accordingly he was directed to take care of the dying Hebrew. He complied with this divine directive and saved the life of that Hebrew. Consequently, he missed the three other wise men at their meeting point. But he met with the Saviour later at Calvary on crucifixion day. The most High is all sufficient to His children. When He sends anyone on errand, He goes along to accomplish the task and takes the glory to Himself at the same time. For instance, when the Saul was struck blind on his way to Damascus, the Holy Spirit directed Ananias to go and pray for Him. It was also revealed to Saul that Ananias was coming to pray for him in order to regain his sight. Initially, Ananias was reluctant, but the Holy Spirit informed him to obey the directive because, Saul was his divine instrument. Accordingly, Ananias went and met Saul and prayed for him. Immediately Ananias prayed over Saul, Saul regained his sight and consequently, Saul was baptised and God's glory manifested. Let those who have ears, hear, may God bless His holy words. Amen Thank You Father
