Preparing to enter into heaven


The Bible teaches in Mathew 6:33 to seek yea first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. It also teaches us that we should prepare the way for the coming of the Lord. To make straight the crooked paths in other words to put our spiritual houses in order. I recall clearly the day when I was fasting and the Holy Spirit out of the blue just whispered to me saying, ‘PREPARE YEA THE WAY FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD,’ I cannot forget it because it was a revelation that I needed, a revelation that i believe everyone needs. This is the revelation that PREPARE THE MESSIAH JESUS IS COMING!
In Hebrews 6 the message urges to grow in maturity but in this message we get knowledge of what is the foundation of the Gospel of Christ is and what is primary. Hebrews 6:1 Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death and of faith in God. Here the teacher is saying let us move on to mature teachings but there is no moving on to secondary teachings without first grasping primary things. We therefore learn that the message of repentance from acts that lead to death is a foundation, it is the primary message but we find that most people have forgotten what is primary, what is elementary such that whatever you build cannot stand because you have no foundation.
This post is a sharing of a message given by a Shepherd of the Lord, whom the Lord by His grace send to Zimbabwe and on the 25th of February he delivered a powerful message on preparing to enter into the Kingdom of heaven. The message blessed me so much and I hope that you read and are also blessed.
This is the second teaching after he had delivered the first teaching on the Remnant Church. Link to the first message ishere
And here goes the second teaching……..😃😃😃
It is a blessed moment to know how to prepare to enter into heaven having gone through by the help of the Lord the message about the Remnant Church. Because as we finalised in the morning The Remnant Church is the Church that eventually gets raptured into heaven, the Church that eventually gets taken into heaven by our Lord Jesus Christ so it is now very powerful when we go into the details on how we need to prepare to be found ready when the Messiah Jesus Christ comes to take His bride into heaven.
Before we go into that, and for those of us who were not here in the morning. I said in the morning that I didn’t just wake up and decided to come to Zimbabwe, actually Our Father in heaven spoke to me last year on 11th of July 2016 about what has got me here. And the Lord spoke to me in a very mighty dream of the Lord and in that dream I found myself in a mode of transport, I was being transported together with other people and I was passing through many countries, and then eventually we arrived in the nation of Zimbabwe so our destiny in that dream of the Lord was to reach Zimbabwe. The destiny the Lord was giving to me to go to or to come to was the nation of Zimbabwe and the Lord made me understand very clearly in that dream that a moment will come when He will send me to the nation of Zimbabwe. You are the nation of Zimbabwe, you are the representatives of the nation of Zimbabwe. Hallelujah!!!
So now that I have seen people of Zimbabwe, I shall have done my part and shall thank the Lord for allowing me to come. If one day He shall allow me to come again I will come but for me I shall have done what the Lord send me to come and do because in the dream He made me know that I need to come to Zimbabwe that I may share His Word and that is what we started doing in the morning, and that is what we are here to do today and will do tomorrow in the morning and tomorrow evening will mark the end of it. Hallelujah!!!
So today this evening message is about preparing to enter into Heaven. And the Lord God help us understand some 8 points of how to prepare to enter into Heaven.
This is a continuation of morning session about the Remnant Church and we saw that the Remnant Church eventually is going to enter into heaven. We are now going to speak about how to prepare and the first point that you and me need to know is that you and me and all the people on earth if they want to enter heaven then we must be born again. You and me and everybody here on earth I hear we are 7 billion. If all the 7 billion people want to go to heaven and if actually you ask almost all of them, everybody wants to go to heaven but what they don’t know is going to heaven is not just by mouth.
Going to heaven is about the remnant Church. Be found among the people who are prepared. Everybody wants to go to heaven which is good but everybody does not want to go through the process of preparing, which is a sad thing. Actually just a few as we have learnt in the morning about the 1/3 that really avail themselves to prepare (refer to 1st video teaching on Remnant Church) only a few avails themselves for preparing.
Only a few people really avail themselves to prepare yet majority if not all if you ask them, do you want to go to heaven or hell everyone on earth, almost everybody will tell you that me I want to go to heaven, after I leave the earth I want to go right into heaven but when you tell them that hey there is a process to prepare for that then you see one by one they disappear. One by one they go to the disco to go and dance the whole night, to go and drink alcohol, to go and smoke cigarettes to damage their lungs. One by one they go do all funny things one by one they run to the witchdoctor, they say oh witchdoctor will answer their questions. Little; one by one they run to all kinds and nature of sin until there is only a remnant. Blessed are you, you are the remnant the Lord is looking for. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!!! Let us clap for the Lord Jesus Christ!!!
How many people are in Zimbabwe? 12 million? Almost like Kenya. The Lord desires all the 12 million people in Zimbabwe and all the 7billion people on the earth to prepare to enter into heaven. That’s what He desires but He gave you and me a privilege to choose whom we are going to serve. That is what He gave us, it’s up to you and me to decide but He loves us and will continue to love us and He loved us so much that he gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. All whoever believes, if out of the 7 billion people only a 100 thousand or only 5 million not 10 million on the entire earth believe in Jesus Christ and submit and surrender themselves then the Lord will only take those ones.
He will not take to heaven those who don’t want to go, those who have not embraced His Son Jesus Christ, He is not going to force anybody. That is the beauty of it but that’s also the challenge of it. The Lord has set the rules, He has set the guidelines, only those who want, He doesn’t force anybody.
So if 99% of people on earth are not interested in Jesus Christ, the Lord will say okay, I give you the opportunity, I have sent you servants and the Bible is there all over but you have refused that is the sad part and it doesn’t please the Lord, it pains Him. But He has already set the decree, He has already set the guidelines. God is not going to force anyone into heaven, No but He is only going to take people who have prepared so blessed are you who are the remnant of Zimbabwe, may the Lord remember you on the day of rapture. Hallelujah!!!
POINT 1 BEING BORN AGAIN
So the 1st point is about being born again. Let us go to the book of John 3:16- 18 about preparing to enter into heaven.
John3:1-8 Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council.  He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.”
 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.]
“How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”
Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.  Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.  You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
You and me and all the people of the earth if they want to enter into heaven, they must be born again. Being born again means the old lifestyle of sin we leave it aside then we start life afresh, anew under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.  Under the guidance of the Lord, because the Lord now cleanses us and washes away all our impurities and sin and we begin life afresh. When a child is born on the earth it is a new beginning. The child starts to see light, learns how to smile, everything is a beginning that is how being born again is all about. The past goes away and now behold a new dawn has arrived. A new dawn in the presence of the Lord. Being born again. Blessed are those who are born again.
POINT 2 THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST
Point #2 about preparing to enter into heaven. And I shared in the morning about the vision the Lord God gave me, maybe I should repeat it. It is more relevant particularly this evening regarding this message. On the 9th of February 2017, 2 weeks ago, Our Lord God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, Him who used to speak to Joseph, called a dreamer. Joseph used to be a dreamer and then his brothers tied him and put him inside a ditch because he was becoming too much with his dreams.
Hallelujah, they were so tired of his dreams. The Bible said he said I’m seeing stars and I’m seeing all of you bowing. They said this dreamer is becoming too much, let him go and dream in Egypt then they sold him. Hallelujah!
That same God is the One who spoke to me on the 9th of February this year 2017 and He took me in a very mighty dream and I found myself very very much up in the air, up there. You know God is so mighty when He wants to pick you He can enable you to do anything. He gives you the capacity, the ability, not by your own strength or might but by His ability, the Holy Spirit.
So I found myself up there, I don’t know how up but it was very up there; physically I can’t describe but spiritually I was up there in the dream of the Lord and when I was there in, it was a dark place where I was but ahead I saw a light. I saw a big place, a place that was almost oval shaped, round but almost oval shaped. You can call it a planet or whatever but it was a big place and I was seeing it from afar and as I was looking upon it I saw light upon it.
Then Him who took me there, the Holy Spirit started speaking to me while I was there. And He spoke to me and He made me understand that the place you are looking at is the Kingdom of God Almighty in heaven, that place is heaven. And then He narrowed my sight, he narrowed my focus into a particular place, He made me know that that is the gate. That is the door into heaven. And I saw the door, it is a place of light. I didn’t see the sun, I just saw that place and it was full of light and the Lord made me know that that is His Kingdom and it is a Kingdom of light. And He made me know that the Bride of Christ is about to be taken into heaven.
Nobody knows the day or the hour, that is what the Word of God says but He made me know that the door of heaven is awaiting the coming of the remnant Church, the one the Lord helped us understand in the morning.
Now point #2 of preparing to enter into heaven is the Blood of Jesus Christ. The Blood of Jesus Christ. If you and me want to prepare to enter into heaven let us receive the Blood of Jesus Christ and the Blood of Jesus Christ is not purchased in the supermarkets. The supermarkets I saw here OK. You don’t go to OK Supermarket to go and buy the Blood of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!
Neither do the pastors, they don’t have it. The pastors from Nigeria, from Kenya and from South Africa they don’t have it. I hear some of them they come in bottles, they say oh we have the blood of Jesus Christ, the original version from Jerusalem and it’s only going for $5 000USD so whoever wants the blood they tell you to come very very fast. The supply is limited only the first 10 can have the blood. I’m not talking about those jokes, I’m not talking about those gymnastics.
I’m talking about the Blood of Jesus Christ that was shed at the Cross of Calvary and has got the supernatural power to touch each and every person who seeks the Blood. So that point #2 is essentially in brackets salvation- Salvation.
So if you and me want to prepare to enter into heaven then we must be saved. I know it’s related to being born again but I want to break it down in that way. You and me must embrace salvation in other words when people in the worldly lifestyle when they hear about salvation they run away and when they hear that so and so is saved they look at you with certain eyes and say oh so you are saved, oh okay, for me I’m still enjoying the world.
Some of them will even say I will get saved when I’m old. When I reach 80 that’s the point when I will get saved. Hhmm tomorrow is not promised to anybody whether you are 5yrs old, 10 years old, 30 years old, 50, 70 or a 100 years old. Tomorrow is not promised to anybody.
The day of salvation is today and now. Hhhm, you were here in the morning, you can be sure from the time you came back some people have now died somewhere on the earth that means they were here, they were alive when we were here in the morning but now somebody somewhere has died that is how life is so tomorrow is not assured to anybody, salvation is now. The moment to receive salvation is now, tomorrow is too late. Hallelujah!
So those who want to enter into heaven must embrace salvation, it is not negotiable. It is not negotiable, even though the Lord has given me and you freewill, He doesn’t force us but the rules and the guidelines remain, only the Blood of Jesus Christ because when we get saved only the Blood of Jesus Christ enables us to receive salvation because when we get saved it means we have been redeemed. We were on the path to death, we were on the path to hell but the Lord    because now He is awoken and    finally accept Jesus Christ as Our Lord, Saviour and Master and we repented of sin and asked Him to have mercy on us and to forgive us of our sins, all our sins and then He is so gracious He welcomed me back     and washed away our sins and forgave us all our sins and now    and became born again.
Let us read more about it in the book of John 3:16 -19 about the Blood of Jesus Christ, about salvation and about preparing to enter into heaven. John 3:16-19  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
Jesus Christ the Messiah was only send to the earth that you and me may get saved, that you and me may receive salvation, that is all. He did not come to condemn us regardless of your situation or condition because sometimes people say, oh but I have done so much sin, can God really forgive me?
No, when you come before Him, that’s why He died. When He was dying on the cross it was NOT a laughing matter, it was painful by that time the Lord got Him to the earth in the physical body so He could feel the pain so His Spirit was entangled with His flesh so He could feel the pain.
He did that, that you may not go through that, that once you believe and accept by appearing before Him in repentance of sin and asking Him to have mercy on you then the Blood is sufficient for you and me. The Blood, so for you and me to enter into heaven we need the Blood. Hallelujah!
When you go to some bus station, maybe you go to far places, I don’t know how far Bulawayo is … that’s very far. I’m sure there are some buses which go there and to go there you must have a ticket, you buy a ticket. So there are some people who buy ticket for aeroplane, train ticket etc
The ticket to enter into heaven is the blood of Jesus Christ. On the day of the Lord, the day when Jesus Christ will be coming to take people from the earth out of the so many faces that are on the earth, out of the 7 billion all that will be required is be about The Blood. The ticket is the Blood. You don’t need to proclaim and say, ‘Oh, I have the blood, I have it in my bedroom. Can I come I show you?’
It will not be a discussion. It will be obvious, those who have the Blood, obviously they have the Blood of Jesus Christ, they don’t need to announce it. They don’t need to tell themselves. Jesus Christ will just see those with the Blood and automatically, abruptly and in a twinkling of an eye they will be lifted up from the earth into the sky in what is known as the rapture of the bride of Christ. There will be transformation, instant transformation in that moment in that moment in time and it is not far!
Nobody knows the day or the hour but these are the days of the end times. You don’t need to wait for another time, all that you and me need to do is to PREPARE and to be READY all the time. Continue doing your work if you are going to work. Continue going to work, if you are going to your farm place to prepare maize continue doing that. Whatever you are doing continue doing but as do that PREPARE FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN!
The Bible of God tells us that there are those who would have gone to the shop to grind the maize plant and they will be taken. If there will be people there waiting for their maize to be grinded and if there are people who shall have had the Blood of Jesus Christ upon them instantly they will disappear  and if the attendant if he not be amongst them who have the Blood, he will start asking, ‘Whose maize is this? Whose maize is this?’
That’s how it will be, it is written in the Bible, so BE READY, even if you are in school, if you are in grade school or high school, wherever you are or whatever you are doing, do it but above all ensure the Blood of Jesus Christ, you have it as your ticket. And it doesn’t cost anything, you don’t need to pay anything.
All that you need to do is to submit and surrender yourself before the Lord and repent for the forgiveness of your sins and ask Him to have mercy on you and ask Him to wash away all your sins with the Blood and automatically He will write your name in the Book of Life.  
When you go to get your ticket they authorise in the computer, in the past when there used to be no computers they used to record in the receipt books so when you appear at the moment when the bus wants to leave, they will check and then they will reconfirm that is this all indeed or it is a fake receipt and they will check their records.
Our Father in heaven has the records which have names, may your name and may my name be found written in the Book of Life because that name will be, those who know accounting, that name will be reconciled with the Blood upon you and you and me will be raptured at the moment of the rapture of the bride of Christ. So the Blood of Jesus Christ.
POINT 3 THE NARROW ROAD & THE NARROW GATE 
Point #3 about preparing to enter into heaven, The Narrow Road and The Narrow Gate
The narrow road and the narrow gate. The way to enter into heaven is narrow meaning small. I want to give an example, (refer to video posted on YouTube for a better understanding of the example.) assuming that people are walking in a multitude, very many people, people will choose to go either through this route- door or through this other door. Now to go through this door (narrow) is essentially not easy especially when people are many. Why? Because people want an easy way out, they want to go out very fast. On this one you may find people are really squeezing to go through. That is how the way to heaven is, it is narrow.
Why is it narrow?
There are many reasons why it is narrow, the first reason is, if you can say a)
a) There are sacrifices to be made, if I may put it that way. The sacrifice has been paid at the cross of Calvary but you in your individual capacity there are things you need to forgo to walk on the way of the Lord. You and me.
When we become born again, when we receive salvation we can now not do things of the world that defined us, Hallelujah!
If all your friends are drinking alcohol on Saturday evening you, you will run to a place where they are preaching the Word of God.
Hallelujah!
You will say for me, I want to hear about the Word of God, I want to serve the Lord, I want to be in the presence of the Lord. That is why it is narrow, you will not start pleasing your friends, you will now be concerned about how to please the Lord. That is why it is narrow. Why because many people they want to enjoy life.
This thing we call life on the earth, people want to enjoy it not knowing that the world is actually enjoying them. This thing that people call enjoying life on the earth, there is no enjoying life without Him who provides life, the real life, the eternal life. If you want to enjoy life, then you and me need to run to Him who gives the real, the truthful and the ultimate life – eternal life, Jesus Christ the Messiah. That is life, so blessed are you and me who are pursuing life. Hallelujah!
Sometimes people say, I want to enjoy life, this life I want to enjoy it. Sometimes they even say, enjoy life while you can. Life is short, enjoy it. What life is short yet we are going to eternal life? We have just begun, it cannot be short because it has no limits. Those who have a fake life to enjoy, they are the ones who say life is short, enjoy it; which is actually true, why? Because those who are walking on the path of destruction, the path of the devil, they only have a short time on the earth then they go to hell, that’s why actually their life is short here, they don’t know that they are condemning themselves with the life from the devil but for me and you who want to enjoy the real, ultimate life, we better run to Jesus Christ, He who gives life. Remember the Samaritan women, Jesus told her, I give you life and you will never thirst again meaning you will forever have the joy of salvation upon you. That is the life that you and me need to take and it only comes through the Messiah Jesus Christ not through any other avenue. So the narrow road is where we find Jesus Christ The Messiah.
The broad road, the wide road where majority wants to go through, it leads to destruction. I want us to be very fast in reading that particular passage.
Mathew 7:13-14 I want to read very fast, remember we are talking about preparing to enter into heaven and the Lord is helping us to understand some key elements of how to prepare to enter into heaven. The first we have understood is being born again, the second we have understood is the Blood of Jesus Christ which essentially means salvation, receiving salvation, being saved. The third point we are studying is about the narrow road and the narrow gate and we will read from the book of Mathew 7:13-14 and I will read, Enter by the narrow gate for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction and there are many who go in by it because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life and there are few who find it
Why is the Lord saying it is difficult because there are sacrifices that you and me have to forego, it doesn’t mean that the Lord wants to punish us. NO! If there is somebody who is the ultimate blessor it is Our Father in heaven. Hallelujah!
So if you are seeking for blessing, if you are seeking for breakthrough in your life then you need to seek yea first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these other things should be added unto you, the food to eat, a job, be it your business to expand uummh yes, including husband and wife those who are, ladies who are looking for husbands, men who are looking for wife.
Those who are looking, the Lord will provide at His own time. He will provide at His own time. He will provide everything. Those who are looking for breakthrough it comes from Jesus Christ, we need to seek yea first His kingdom and His righteousness and these other will automatically take care, automatically. He has written it in His Word, because right now, many people, they mainly advance through the wide gate. They want to get blessings but they don’t want to seek yea first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.
They, in fact when they come to Church, all they want to know is what is the Pastor saying about my house, what is the Pastor saying about my vehicle; I need to get a big vehicle, I need to stay where the wealthy people stay; the suburbs where the wealthy people stay. I want to own a house there latest by December so I want to hear what the man of God is saying about that. For me I come in the Name of The Lord and all I have to say is that seek yea first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things you are looking for will be added unto you. Hallelujah!
Those who are running after blessings, those who are running after prosperity, I want to prosper. NO! We can’t bride God!!!
You need to first seek the Lord otherwise those blessings will be like fake blessings. Instead of helping you to prepare to enter into heaven, they will be preparing you for hell. Why have the wealth of the earth and lose yourself for hell? Why? It’s not necessary! You rather have even the bare minimum and yet have the joy of salvation.
Preparing to enter into heaven, the ultimate perfect place which is the kingdom of God in heaven. Hallelujah!
I want to summarise the narrow gate and the narrow road. So why are many going through the wide gate and wide road, I have already said it but I want to add a small bit.
Many people on the earth go with the way of peer pressure. Peer pressure!
Regardless of the age. They say, ‘Oh, all my friends are doing this.’ They say, ‘Oh, everybody does this so who am I to be contrary,’ they say, ‘I also want to belong.’
Many people on earth want to belong. They want to feel that they belong. You rather belong to the kingdom of heaven than pursuing how to please your friends here on the earth. If your friends are not helping you to prepare to enter into heaven, yes you will continue sharing with them the Word of God but you will not do things that they do that do not glorify God. You will take another route, the narrow door, the narrow gate and then you walk through the narrow road. 
That road sometimes appear lonely because there are not many who walk in it but as much as may appear lonely there yet you are not alone because you are with the ultimate Master, the Creator of the heaven and the earth. The Lord God Almighty, Him who is so mighty, so mighty, so omnipresent and omnipotent. He is so mighty that even the stars of the sky, all that He created, He created that they might worship Him.
That’s how mighty He is and He has created so much that the human advancement, the scientifical advancement that are there where now they discover many planets that are on the earth, they discover so many places through very powerful telescopes. They have not yet discovered it all. That’s how mighty the Lord is because He has given many things beyond even scientific advancement. His advancement is beyond science. Actually the science that these people have, it is from the Lord, He is the One who has enabled them but the thing is, do they use it to glorify the Lord because the first thing that people should do when they discover the many things that are being discovered… this week they just discovered 7 planets that look like the earth so instead of glorifying the Lord they are saying, ‘Oh we are trying to see whether there is light there so that we may see whether we can conquer.’
How are you going to conquer what the Lord has not told you to conquer? Hallelujah! We should be glorifying the Lord saying, ‘Holy, Hallelujah! Father, The Lord of Hosts, Jehovah Sabaoth Him who furnished the entire river, we should be celebrating and glorifying the Lord for enabling us to discover things that were hidden from our eyes for many years yet He has hidden so much. One place they have not discovered with their powerful is heaven, the Kingdom of God in heaven. They have not yet discovered it. It is so far yet so near for the remnant Church.
On the day of the rapture the Lord Jesus Christ will come and we will all fly away gloriously in the presence of the Lord. We will go there.
Right now they say, ‘Oh…’ The scientists, I’m not blaming the scientists, they are good people, hahah but science without God is actually nothing. They say that, like the 7 planets they discovered, they say that it will take it 40 million years, 40 million years; if I heard it well. 40 million years for people to visit there but on the day of the rapture we will be going instantly, we will really be moving very fast to enter into heaven.
Blessed are you and me, if we make it and as we prepare. All we need to do, you and me is to surrender to Our Lord Jesus Christ that we may prepare and help us to enter.
POINT 4 REPENTANCE, RIGHTEOUSNESS & HOLINESS
Pont #4 about preparing to enter into heaven. It is something we discussed in the morning but we will repeat it. Point #4 is Repentance, Righteousness and Holiness.
If you and me want to prepare to enter into heaven then we must embrace repentance for the forgiveness of our sins through the Blood of Jesus Christ and we must walk in righteousness, we must be right before the Lord. We must also be able to walk in holiness. We must walk in holiness. It’s one of the ways, the key elements of entering into heaven. Refer to first teaching on the remnant church for more details
POINT 5 THE LAMPSTAND OF GOD/ THE GLORY OF GOD
Point#5 preparing to enter into heaven is what I call or what you can call, The lampstand of God. The lampstand of God is what can also be called, The Glory of God. The light of Christ. To understand it better, I’m going to use a Bible verse and then come back. Revelations 2: 4-5 I will read, nevertheless I have this against you that you have left your first love, remember therefore from where you have fallen, repent and do the first works or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place unless you repent. Hallelujah!
This is the message the Lord is telling you, he is telling each and everyone of the 7 billion people on the earth, tell them that hey so and so I have been observing you from afar for many years and many moments, many days, many months and I have this against you; nevertheless. This actually includes people in the Church because when Jesus Christ comes to do the separation, he says judgement begins in my house meaning separation begins right in the house of the Lord. A place that bears the name of God, those who go to Church, who carry Bible, separation begins with them before the Lord goes to the people who do not want anything to do with Jesus Christ.
They don’t want anything to do with Bible, they don’t want anything, and if you start telling them about God they say oh no, all that I don’t want to hear. It begins with those who are right in the Church- separation, that’s why you see eventually you are left with the remnant Church.
The Church becomes separated, the remnant Church and then the other Church that is not the remnant. You will know their names shortly, those other churches and I said the Church is not about the name written on front of a building. They say oh this is the Salvation Army, this is the, this is the Catholic, this is the Deliverance Church- us we deliver people, Deliverance Church of God.
It does not matter how nice the name looks; the Restoration Altar of God, the Redeemed Gospel; the gospel that has been redeemed. Redeemed Gospel Church; this is where I’m from- all those are all, Those are all gymnastics, those are not necessary when you come to the Kingdom of heaven.
When it comes to the Church that enters heaven it is about you in your individual capacity, are you preparing for heaven? Because that is the task. Jesus Christ is not coming for..; when the day of the rapture comes, He is not going to come and say, ‘Oh You Redeemed Gospel Church you are the ones who are really redeemed so you are the ones I’m taking, I’m not taking the others.
NO!
All those are just, hhmm, gymnastics of human beings. Where they say us we are called this, we are called this. In heaven there is nothing like those names. In heaven the names are the Remnant Church or the Lukewarm Church. Only those two. When God looks at the earth He is only seeing two Churches, the Remnant Church and the Lukewarm Church and those 2 names are not the descriptions of human beings, it’s about you and me and everybody being considered whether we belong to the Remnant Church a category or the Lukewarm Church.  I wanted to mention later but its okay. So Revelations 2:45 nevertheless I have this against you that you have left your first love, remember therefore from where you have fallen, repent and do the first works or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place unless you repent.
That is the message to each and every one that unless we repent, unless we come before the Lord and repent for the forgiveness of our sins then what will He do, He will remove our lampstands. Everybody born on the earth is born with the light of Christ. When a child is born the child has okay all children have guardian angels. All children who are born have guardian angels, they are all pure before God such that at a time for whatever reason goes to heaven at that young age, a child, an infant then that child they go automatically to heaven, why? Because they are pure before God.
The light of Christ is upon them. Every child. The problem comes when you and me become older and older then we start getting into sin then now we become, the light of Christ is taken away from us, that’s why we need to be born again.
When the day of the rapture comes there is what is known as the accountability age, there are some children who will automatically go into heaven and even includes the ones who will be in the womb. If the rapture happens and if you are so blessed to have a child in your womb, you better also be preparing to enter into heaven because those with their young children in their womb and the rapture happens and them they have not prepared for the coming of the Lord, suddenly their womb will become flat. You are walking with your wife taking them to the clinic and helping them to walk then suddenly there will be just, they have become, there is nothing now. It’s flat.
There will be screaming and mourning all over the earth and imagine all; if it’s in this area all the blessed ladies who have children in their womb and then suddenly the child goes. You will be hearing screaming this side, the other side. If they themselves were not preparing for the Kingdom of heaven, the children will suddenly be taken to heaven.
And this also includes all the children who have not known to differentiate good and evil, I don’t know the age, I don’t know whether 2 years, 3 years, I don’t know but God knows but any child that has not reached accountability age will actually be taken into heaven if the rapture .
So you and me we are very old so what we need to do is to ensure we are right before the Lord. This lampstand, the Lord says that He has been your Father since you were born and that you have gone astray, now if you have gone astray then the Lord Jesus Christ will come that’s why He is cautioning us in Revelations 2:45 that hey nevertheless I have this against you that you have forgotten your first love. The Messiah Jesus Christ is our first love.
When a child is born the only person they depend on is the Lord, the Lord. Even though they may depend on their mother, their father at that age to wash them and change them. When they see their mum they actually see the Lord because that person has been send to them by the Lord to take care of them. They only depend on God but when we grow up, 5 years, 16 years and those many years that we reach we start now to see the world as the ultimate place, we start growing away from God. The Lord is cautioning you and me that hey nevertheless I have this against you that you have forgotten and forsaken your first love, please repent and return to your first love and the first love is Jesus Christ the Messiah.
And then He says unless you repent He will come and remove the lampstand so everybody normally have it when they are born, when they grow up they have it, we when we veer off the Lord and go into sin, the Lord now gives us, He continually gives us the opportunity to repent, to return to Him but a time comes when He will now take the lampstand from us. When this thing is taken out (motioning to the lampstand being used by video man) , this lampstand- assuming this lampstand is you and me, then you and me, you and me is represented as a lampstand. The way I’m standing like this, I’m like a stand, a lampstand, if I don’t emit the light of Christ, I’m in darkness, I’m emitting darkness.
Blessed are you and me if we have the light of Christ.
It becomes so dark when Jesus Christ takes this light away from us because now there will be darkness upon us. If you and me want to prepare to enter into heaven we need to have the lampstand of God upon us and that lampstand of God, we only get it from God because it is His lampstand. He is the One who gives us that light.
That’s why repentance is so important, to repent so the Lord may have mercy on us and forgive us our sins through the Blood of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!
Now that lampstand of God is also known as the Glory of the Lord. When you and me return to the Lord and accept Jesus Christ as our Lord, Master and Saviour, the glory of the Lord is upon us, we are emitting the Light of Christ, if only the Lord makes all of us to see what happens in the spiritual realm, then you will see some people walking and they are like shining stars, shining stars-  that’s how those who are born again are before the Lord.  
When you and me become born again then we are like shining stars, when the Lord looks at the earth, He sees stars, the way we look up there then we see stars, when the Lord looks at the earth He sees stars, His sons and daughters. Those who are emitting the Light of Christ, The Glory of the Lord but now you and me in most cases, not in most cases, on this earth we have a weak body. This one is very weak but God sometimes enables His servants to see spiritually and then they see the light. This body we have has to be transformed even if there are people who will not die and be buried in the soil, this body that they have whether they are so much born again, whether they are so much into Christ, this body that they have, that you and me have, it has to be transformed.
It is a weak category type of body, this one. It is very inferior, it is just dust. It is just soil. It has to be transformed that you and me may have the glorified body to enable us to enter into heaven. But as much as we have this weak body that you and me have, when you and me become born again spiritually we get one because the spirit and the soil we have and the Holy Spirit that is for those who have accepted Him.
Before God spiritually we are emitting light of Christ, light of Christ
POINT 6 THE GARMENT OF LIGHT
Pont#6 about preparing to enter into heaven. The garment of light, the garment of light. Now this is a little point 5 which we have gone through but is different in its own way. The garment of light. If you and me want to enter into heaven then we must have the garment of light.
On the day of the rapture of the bride of Christ, on the day when Jesus Christ is going to come and take His faithful sons and daughters to heaven, all that will matter is about the garment of light. Being only those who have the garment of light will enter into heaven.
I know that when people start talking about heaven, hell, about Jesus Christ coming to take people into heaven. Some people say, ‘Oh You are scaring us. You are really speaking for us some fear, you are making us to fear.’ Heh, that fear is not of the Lord. In the Kingdom of God there is no fear, we only have rejoicing.
Those who fear are those who are in sin, but when the Lord tells people that we need to enter into the place of ultimate joy in heaven, we need to be happy. Hallelujah! We should not fear, we should say finally I have got it, finally I have understood it.
So the garment of light is a garment which the Lord gives you and me and every person on earth when we have received Jesus Christ as Our Lord, Master and Saviour and it is not a physical dress. It is not a physical dress, it is a spiritual dress, even though as a born again Christian, you and me also need to dress well.
If you are a lady, you need to cover all your fundamentals. If I put it that way. If you are a man, cover all your fundamentals, don’t walk across the road with your chest open showing people how you have gone to the gym. No just hide it, just cover yourself. If you are a lady please just cover all your blessed fundamentals. Just cover them well, the Lord will bless you. You don’t need to show everybody on the road when you are going to Harare, why? Because when they see all your fundamentals as you go to the city of Harare in the City Centre, you will be sinning and the people will be falling in sin with you because they will be lusting at you. Heh they will be looking at you and some will be turning like (demonstrates a full turn) this and looking, you know we have to talk, we have to talk the reality and the truth. They will be looking at you, looking and admiring all your fundamentals, just cover them.
The Lord blessed you with all your fundamentals, well and good, cover them for the glory and the honour of the Lord. Hallelujah!
So that some people may enter and so that you yourself may enter. Once you cover yourself well you have done your part, somebody who will still want to whatever, you you shall have done your part. Then if somebody turns tell them about Jesus Christ.
The garment of light, I was talking about the spiritual garment of light and I want us to understand that from Revelations 15: 16 Behold I am coming like a thief, blessed is he who watches and keeps his garment lest he walks naked and they see his shame
NIV says I am coming as a thief, put on your garment otherwise you will be shamefully exposed
The day of the rapture of the bride of Christ is the day of the garment. The day when Jesus Christ will come, and it’s not far, nobody knows the day or the hour but we are in the moment when he will be coming any moment. I can assure you there are people here on the earth who will not taste death, that one I can assure you. They will not taste death, physical death, being buried, they will be transformed, I don’t know when that will be but we are in the moment.
The day that the Lord spoke to His servant Daniel are here with us, these are the days. Nobody knows the day or the hour, you and me just need to prepare. On that day and at that moment, there will be the rapture of the Bride of Christ, it will be the day of The Garment.
Only those people who have the garment of light will be taken into heaven. Those who don’t have will be shamefully exposed.
Why will they be shamefully exposed, because there are those who shall have been going to Church telling people about praise the Lord and yet they were not amongst the remnant Church, yet they were not serving the Lord right. They were still in sin yet they were claiming to be people of God and this will include pastors, bishops, whatever, they will all be among, they will become (audio unclear) like that. And so when the day of rapture comes suddenly there will be commotion on the earth, why? Because some people shall have disappeared.
Everybody will be running to police stations, everybody will be running to their neighbours and ask, ‘have you seen so and so, he was just here we woke up and we didn’t see them or we,’ because we don’t know whether rapture will be day time or night time that.  ‘.. this person has just disappeared and he was sitting in the living room and suddenly he disappeared. I was preparing for him lunch/ supper. Have you seen him? You know him so have seen him?’ so when somebody goes to that place then they will hear, ‘even so and so has disappeared.’ So there will be commotion in the police stations because everybody will going to report their missing, their children who would have gone missing, their friends, their neighbours, their workmates who shall have gone missing.
So there will be commotion and wailing all over the earth and there will be breaking news in the Zimbabwe broadcasting station and there will be breaking news in CNN, in BBC, in Aljazeera, in all the stations that millions or whatever number have disappeared on the earth. So that will bring commotion and chaos because people will be wondering where have they gone to.
That particular point in time there are some people who will be seen because there will be some rumour across the earth and the villages that hey some people are saying that the Christians have gone. The Christians have disappeared, Jesus came and took them but when they walk across the street as they go to buy bread in OK Supermarket, they will be meeting some “pastors and some sisters and brothers in Christ” and then they will wonder that hey what happened to you? I have heard news that Christians were taken, I thought you were Christian, what happened?
You are a pastor I hear people have gone, what happened, you you have remained?
Heh so they will be shamefully exposed, it is so sad when you are a Christian or you are a Church person and then you are found among the people of the world.
Because for them they will forget about your problem and start laughing at you. They will be so much interested, they will be so much laughing at you that oh at least us we were in the bar, we were drinking alcohol the whole Friday or the whole Saturday, at least us we were there but you, you were in Church, what happened? So it was all in vain because it will now become clear that indeed some people have disappeared and there will be people who will now go back to the Bible and say oh it was indeed written here that a time will come when people will disappear suddenly. So my prayer is that you and me may not be shamefully exposed but may be found wearing the garment of light that we may enter into heaven. Hallelujah!
Jesus Christ is coming as a thief. When a thief is coming to a place they don’t announce, they don’t go to their Facebook page and say, ‘Attention! Attention! Today me and my group we are going to steal at so and so’s place.’ They don’t do that. Neither do they do an update on Twitter, they don’t send WhatsApp to everyone that oh everybody please be aware today we are going to steal this at this place. Thieves don’t do that.
Thieves, they suddenly appear. They just appear. Pop, they are there.
That’s why Jesus Christ the Messiah is comparing His coming to the thief the way they come. He says I will come as a thief. Behold, what He says here is behold meaning Attention! Attention! An announcement. A special announcement, behold I am coming as a thief so in all these sessions we have had, we had in the morning, we are having now, we will have in the evening. All these sessions can be summarised as this, that the Lord has send me to announce to you that there is an announcement Zimbabwe. Attention! Attention! There is an announcement Zimbabwe, Jesus Christ is going to come as a thief, please let us prepare the way to enter into heaven.
Let us prepare the way that we be found amongst the remnant Church that we may enter into heaven. I believe there is a reason why the Lord revealed to me 2 weeks ago about heaven and He showed me the way I shared that when I come here I share that heaven is a real place. It is not a myth. Heh, Hallelujah!
Because sometimes some people say oh but we what to have documented evidence, we want to have scientific proof. We want to have something that we can test empirically or we want supporting schedules, supporting schedules something to support. The kingdom of God is a real place, you and me we better prepare that on the day that we, because people will still continue to die anyway even before rapture.
I know people do not like talking about death but for those who have the Kingdom of heaven talking about death is not a big thing, why? Because we have life, we have eternal life. Death is just, if somebody goes before rapture and they gone having the light of Christ, they will enter into heaven automatically. Hallelujah!
Concerning the garment of light, I want us to also read 1 Corinthians 15: 50-58, I know we are finishing at 8pm so I will be finishing in the next few minutes.
1 Corinthians 15:50-58 Now this I say brethren that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incoruption. Behold I shew you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labour is not vain in the Lord.
How mighty that is. So this corruptible, this body that you and me have has to be transformed to a glorified body. The garment of light is actually a spiritual clothing and that spiritual clothing is what you and me makes us to be transformed at the day of rapture but at that particular point in time that garment of light that you and me have will now become obvious because that will be the glorified body that you and me will use to enter into heaven. Hallelujah!
POINT 7 THE WEDDING SUPPER OF THE LAMB
Point#7, we have 8points so point #7 preparing to enter into heaven, point#7 The wedding supper of the Lamb or the Marriage supper of the Lamb. You and me as we prepare to enter into heaven, we need to know that there is a wedding, there is a marriage that has been scheduled up in heaven in the kingdom of God almighty in heaven.
There is a wedding, there is a marriage supper.
People are going there to eat, spiritually if I put it that way but it is real eating in the presence of the Lord having glorified bodies.
The marriage supper of the Lamb. When our Lord Jesus Christ was here on the earth He had what was known as the last supper and He told His disciples that I’m eating with you, I’m partaking with you this fruit of the vine and I will not do so until I do so with you in the Kingdom of God Almighty in heaven. That will happen during the wedding supper, the marriage supper of the Lamb. So yes there will be drinking, the heavenly food and the heavenly drink on that day and it will be so glorious, so mighty, so powerful day it will be in the kingdom of God Almighty in heaven.
If you have ever attended any wedding here on earth and you rank it the best you have ever seen, the best you have ever watched, I tell you the one in heaven is to a higher level than you saw. You can’t describe the one in heaven because it is to a higher level, times ten billion better than the best you have ever seen or the best you have attended. Hallelujah!
That is the place we need to be going to if we prepare to enter into heaven. The marriage supper of the Lamb. I want to read a Bible verse very fast before I go on to point 8. Revelation 19:6-9 regarding the marriage supper of the Lamb because it beautiful to know exactly where we are going and our Lord is very gracious to you and me to have it all put for you and me in His Holy Word the Bible. Revelations 19:6-9 Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: “Hallelujah!
 For our Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.  Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear.” (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God’s holy people.) Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” And he added, “These are the true words of God.”
Hallelujah! So I have come, the Lord has send me to come to you and deliver to you the invitation card that behold Zimbabwe there is a grant mega wedding that has been set in the kingdom of heaven, are you preparing for it and if not the time to prepare for it is now and the only way to prepare for it is to be found arrayed in the garment of light, the righteous acts of saints because eventually as we read there, you and me will be clothed in fine linen which defines our righteous acts.
Based on what we learned in the morning about the remnant church, combine the two with what you are learning now, the Lord will bless you with understanding so that you may be found ready so that you may appear in the marriage supper of the Lamb which is going to be so mighty and so glorious, you do not want to miss it, neither do you want to be told later that hey can I tell you how it was? Hallelujah!
Because after the rapture of the bride of Christ there is what is known as the great tribulation upon the earth. The great tribulation will be a moment of turmoil in the entire earth including Zimbabwe. If you think Zimbabwe is having problems or challenges, Zimbabwe has not yet seen problems or challenges as it will be during the great tribulation period so it is time for you and me and everyone in the entire earth to prepare to enter that you may escape the great tribulation period that is going to be upon this earth. Hallelujah!
POINT 8 THE CHURCH THAT GETS RAPTURED INTO HEAVEN
Point #8 is what I want to summarise as the Church that gets raptured into heaven.
The topic of this evening is about preparing to enter into heaven and the Lord has helped us to understand the first point which is about being born again.
The second point being the Blood of Jesus Christ which is essentially salvation.
The third point is about the narrow gate and the narrow road.
The fourth point is about repentance, righteousness and holiness.
The fifth point is about the lampstand of God where the Lord is telling you and me that hey, nevertheless I have this against you, remember how far you have fallen from my presence and have gone into sin, wake up and return to me otherwise I will come to you and remove my lampstand from you and leave you in darkness forever in hell. That is what the Lord says there, Revelations 2:45, the Lampstand of God, the Glory of God and the Light of Christ.
Point#6 that we understood is about the garment of light. The garment of light.
Point#7 that we have understood is about what I mentioned as the marriage supper of the Lamp which is essentially what me and you are waiting for if we prepare to enter into heaven.
Point# 8 is the Church that gets raptured into heaven and I want to read one verse for us to understand. It is essentially what we mainly tackled in the morning about the remnant church. Only the remnant church is the church that enters into heaven and we took two and half hours to go through that point#8 the Church that gets raptured into heaven but I want to add one additional Bible verse regarding that and then I summarise, we pray, we thank the Lord and then we go, we meet again tomorrow morning.
Point #8 as I have said about the church that gets raptured into heaven, Revelations 3:14-22  “To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other!  So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.  Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne.  Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”   Hallelujah!
That Bible verse I have read summarises the 2 and half hours we took in the morning and summarises the one and half hours we have taken now, which means that type of verse summarises the 4hours and the Lord God has just helped us understand it in this 4hours, this Bible verse.
This summarises everything that the Lord has been helping us to jot down from morning till now so if I was you I would go back to this Bible verse, read it again, pray and ask the Lord to help me understand better because the Lord is saying there is going to be a 3 category of people. There is going to be separation of people on the earth into 3 categories. I’m just using an example of the 7 billion of people that we are told are on the earth right now. All that are going to be separated into 3 categories.
One category is known as The Holy Church/ The Remnant Church. The other category is known as the Lukewarm Church. The other category is known as The Cold. They are so cold about the Lord Jesus Christ, they don’t want to hear anything about Him. Actually some of them if you tell them about Jesus Christ, they cut your neck, heh, the ISIS of this world. Mention Jesus Christ and they cut your neck, they not only refuse what you are saying and throw you away, they finish you off and cut your neck. That’s how serious it is, the cold people. There are those who say, No He is not the Messiah, He is not the Saviour, those are also cold people. Anybody, anybody who does not accept Jesus Christ as the person who was send to redeem mankind that mankind may enter into heaven, anybody any so called religious group are categorised as The Cold People. They will be categorised and they are categorised on the day of the rapture then the Lord is also talking about another category and this is more serious because this category is right in the Church. The Lord is forced to do a separation in the Church. Judgement begins in my house, that’s what the Lord says and that separation of people in the Church is listed in 2 categories. The Lukewarm Church and The Hot Church. So the Lukewarm Church, the Lord Jesus Christ is forced to vomit them out of His mouth, out of His presence. If I give an example, fish, if you watch, if you like watching nature, you see a big fish in the ocean the way they normally sometimes normally present in documentary, you see a big fish then it has the small ones, the children or whatever you call them. When there is danger, she will allow them and they will run to the mouth of the mother fish and then when the danger goes they will all be released but when there is danger she will pull them in. that is how our Messiah Jesus Christ is with the Church, we are all in His mouth, in His presence as He protects us and shields us, nourishing us, guarding us, purifying us and cleansing us in His mouth, in His presence.
But a moment comes when He is forced to throw out some people out of His mouth, to vomit them. Heh, you and me know what vomit is, you vomit very powerful, Pop. He is forced to do that regarding the Lukewarm Church who have been in His presence and are not serious with Him. He is forced, a moment comes when He is forced to throw them out.
Those are not my words, we have read them clearly, Lukewarm Church. They are also at Church meaning they also go to church, they also carry Bible, they also talk about praise Jesus yet their lifestyle is not pleasing before the Lord, they are living in sin.
They are taking the redemption of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross as a normal thing. They are called the Lukewarm Church, now the Lord Jesus Christ is agonising over them.
He is agonizing over them, why? Because He says I wish you were either cold or hot, I wish you could have taken one side. I wish if you decided you belonged to the world, you should have gone there or if you wanted to be my son or daughter then you should have really come in and walk in righteousness and holiness rather than giving me hard time, that is why Jesus is forced to vomit them out. And He says I wish you were either of the 2.
It would be so sad if somebody goes to Church, somebody talks about Jesus and then suddenly on the day of rapture Jesus says to them, I never knew you. I wish you had chosen either of the two. That’s how critical it is. So it is important that you and me walk rightly before the Lord and we can’t do it with our strength, we need the Holy Spirit that’s why you and me need to be a prayerful son or daughter of the Lord.
You and me need to be reading the Bible, we need to be seeking the Lord in prayer, continually asking Him to wash us and to cleanse us. Continually worshipping Him that you may be found right before Him on the day of reckoning, the day of the rapture when there will be a people who will be shamefully exposed. Why? Because the Lord shall have vomited them out of His presence.
The day of the rapture is also the day of vomiting. Jesus Christ is going to vomit a portion of people who are right in the Church. My prayer is that you and me may not be found amongst those people but that you and me may be the people who remain in the mouth of Jesus Christ, in His presence. The Remnant, they remain because they are the Remnant. My prayer is that you and me become The Remnant Church.

Hallelujah! That marks the end of this evening session.
