THOSE WHO WILL SEE GOD: GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 16:16-18 And Simon Peter answered and said, "Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say unto thee, thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." GOD REVEALS HIMSELF TO HIS PEOPLE: Scarcely can one who professes to have seen God be upright. Take for instance a certain young man from Rivers State who came here in the company of some of his followers . He claims to be the king of kings and the shepherd. But a close look at his lifestyle proved that he was contradicting himself. This is the case with all the self-acclaimed religious leaders in the world today. None of them is interested in keeping the commandment of God. All that they do is to use the name of God to amass wealth to themselves and their immediate families. GOD KNOWS ALL THOSE WHO SEEK FOR HIM LOVINGLY WITH CLEAN HEARTS. THESE IN FACT ARE THE ONES HE HAS REVEALED HIMSELF TO AND GOD DOES NOT REVEAL HIMSELF TO HIS PEOPLE IN THE FOREST, SEA, SHORE, SHRINE, PRAYER HOUSE ETC.*** DIFFERENTLY PUT, THERE IS NO PARTICULAR PLACE SET ASIDE FOR PEOPLE TO AND WAIT FOR GOD TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO THEM. HE IS READY TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU, ANYWHERE, PROVIDED YOU LOVE HIM AND YOU KEEP HIS COMMANDMENT.*** Anytime you come by someone to whom God has revealed Himself you will know by his lifestyle. There is no other way through which God reveals Himself to man, except as revealed by these three texts. The way God reveals Himself to those He wishes is not subject to any controversy. DOES NOT NEED TO READ IT IN A BOOK, CONSULT AN ORACLE, OR VISIT A SPECIALIST TO TUTOR ONE ON THE PROCEDURE. PROVIDED YOU KEEP HIS COMMANDMENT AND LOVE HIM, HE WILL NOT HESITATE TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU WITHOUT ANY PROTOCOL. WE CAN DECEIVE OURSELVES OR BE DECEIVED BY OTHERS THAT WE OR THEY HAVE SEEN GOD, BUT GOD CANNOT BE DECEIVED . He knows those he has revealed Himself to and these people too know Him and they are upright in all that they do and utter. Except God reveals Himself to you cannot know him. Even if He lives with you in the same house, sleeps on the same bed with you and shares almost everything with you, you will not know Him except He reveals Himself to you. GOD HAS COME DOWN TO DWELL IN OUR MIDST. HE DID NOT COME FOR ALL TO SEE HIM BUT ONLY HIS CHILDREN MAY SEE HIM. IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN HIM IT MEANS HE HAS NOT REVEALED HIMSELF TO YOU, AND THE FACT THAT HE HAS NOT REVEALED HIMSELF TO YOU MEANS THAT YOU HAVE NOT PRACTICED THE MUCH NEEDED LOVE. NO ONE WHO HAS SEEN GOD CAN DO ANYTHING TO DISGRACE THE NAME OF GOD. HE WILL DEVOTE HIS ENTIRE LIFE TO DOING THE WORK OF GOD AND THE ONE WILL STRIVE TO PROPAGATE THE WORD OF GOD WHEREVER MAN IS FOUND, AND HE WOULD ALWAYS DESIRE THAT THE GLORY OF GOD SHOULD KNOW NO BOUND. THE CHILDREN OF GOD HEAR THE WORD OF GOD AND PRACTICE SAME, AND THEY ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO DO THE SAME. God knows why He does not want people to publicize His presence but He prefers to reveal Himself to those He loves. Even when He took Peter, James, and John to the mountain, and transfigured Himself there, showing the kingdom of God to them, He instructed them saying, "Tell the vision to no man, until the son of man be risen again from the dead." (Matthew 17:9) You should then realize that the resurrection was an avenue for God to reveal Himself to those He loves. Peter knew Jesus to be the Christ, the son of the living God because it so pleased God to reveal Himself to Him. And because Peter had love, this accounted for the reason why Our Lord Jesus Christ, pronounced him to be the rock upon which He would build His temple. The same Peter had the blessing of God to hold the key of the kingdom of God. These, in effect, prove to you the attendant blessing due for those whom God reveals Himself to. It is said that a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise. Let those who have ears hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the world. May God bless His Holy words. Amen THANK YOU HOLY FATHER.
