Tongues and Interpretation 1
“I have come to make you wise; I am here to make to wise. I am here with high wisdom, height wisdom. I am here to make you wise; I have brought wisdom even from the height; high wisdom that makes for judgement, for eye salve, for help, that you might walk well even in that height. I am a minister of that wisdom sent from God to you”

Every manufacturer has an end in mind for every product they make. The result of the raw materials is called a finished product. These finished products are called goods. The life span or shelf life of these goods are important to its producers.
God created things on the earth and called all of them good (Gen. 1:31). A product is called good because of its life span - how long it can last. Nobody purchases a product that will perish in a day. The lifespan of a product is what attracts consumers to it. The quality and how long a product lasts matter a lot.
God does not compromise on quality. If God says something is good, He is referring to its beauty, everlasting quality, safety, elasticity, etc. God made man and it was good. Every creature was good, meaning the things He made will last. Wonder why the earth has lasted this long despite the age-long assault against her?
Someone fell from God who compromised quality. He fell from a perfect state and infected creation with his virus. He fell and became overly ambitious (Eze. 28:12). He was amidst the stones of fire – the Seraphims - and was overseeing their realm. The Seraphims are entities of the second heaven while the Cherubims are of the third heavens. The second heaven is the middle of all three realms, and is a realm of burning, while the Cherubims are in the highest realm – the shining realm.
The first heaven is made up of four manners of dominions. Gatecrashing into the realms of the heavens would be faced with much war by these strata of heavenly beings. The Cherubs are the most magnificent. Only one Cherub was sufficient to manage the Israelites in the wilderness and encamp around them (Psalm 34:7). Satan’s might is no longer as strong as it was because he is no longer in the presence of the Lord. What is currently sustaining him is the worship of men and that of fallen angels. It is the obedience of men to him that makes him the god of this world - the prince of the power of the air. This obedience is disobedience (Eph. 2:2).
The prophecy in Ezekiel 28:16 would come to pass as described in the book of Revelations 12:7-8. As a result, he would be removed from the midst of his angels and he would be fallen down to earth to raise his antichrist. The spirits that Satan surrounds himself with are part of what strengthens him; he is their Gog, while they are his Magog. He is currently set as a king over other princes, just as the antichrist who would be in a like manner, as a king of kings.
Hateful birds are spiritual wickedness in high placed while unclean birds are rulers of the darkness of this world; these are the kind of birds that a man of charity will fight. Birds of iniquity are hateful birds. These are the spirits that taught men from one sin to another within Babylon. Sin tutelage begins with devils which graduate to fowl spirits. Fowl spirits introduce men to unclean birds. Unclean birds submit a person to hateful birds. All these spirits will someday cease to dominate mankind. In that time, man would have developed a nature that can directly relate with the devil. Satan is a spirit that is at work in the children of disobedience, with the purpose of raising sons of disobedience (Eph. 2:2).
Evil spirits can teach a child if the parents are not careful. Some people have escaped parental discipline. Such people get to church and cause trouble. The parents who discipline their children are servants of the Most High God. God uses them to preserve the children for Him. Discipline can straighten a child. Parents should not pet demons in their homes. Drive demons out of your homes with discipline. Teach your children God’s word.
Ezekiel 28:17
"Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee."
Satan’s brightness here referred to his intelligence. He is a bright angel.
Isaiah 14:12
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!"
This fall is not the first fall of Satan from the third heavens. It is a prophecy about the fall of Satan from the air of the earth. Satan wants to ascend to this position and wants to keep moving on. He still nurses this ambition in his heart. Isaiah, the prophet, saw this ambition in Satan’s heart.
Isaiah 14:16
"They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms…"
This is the season Satan will be put into the bottomless pit. The beast - the antichrist - will also rise from this bottomless pit. Just before Satan will be cast in, he would have made the earth tremble and shake kingdoms. Satan fell down to earth with corruption. What is troubling earth right now is an inferior quality of life. Corruption is the fall that man inherited after he had been made upright. Man was made to last. We do not have the materials to make things last. Lasting materials come from God. God designed man to last. He never designed man to die. Today, men hardly cross fifty years of age before they die. The spirit of corruption is responsible for this anomaly.
Deuteronomy 33:27
"The eternal God is thy refuge, And underneath are the everlasting arms: And he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; And shall say, Destroy them."
There is no one who is eternal under God. Eternal life is the attribute of deity that He never shared with creatures. Under God are everlasting arms. Everlasting life is a holding power of God; it is designed to keep. These arms are designed to bind one in a place until eternal life comes. Every creature was dealt with some kind of everlasting life, although they differ in quality. The everlasting life of angels differs from those of men. This life in the former is higher than in the latter.
The earth and heaven will remain together and be dissolved at the same time. Although earth is a lower plane compared to the heavens, it can last forever. This lasting quality is not eternal but everlasting. If the heavens were to remain, they would last as long as the angels. The fact that something is referred to as forever does not mean it is eternal. If it just has a forever strength, it can still pass away. God can tell the ends of the earth and heavens. Even though the heavens and the earth will pass away, words will not pass away. He can tell that the earth and heavens are already getting old.
Hebrews 1:11
"They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment…"
The heavens and the earth have a lifespan. Scientists cannot read the end of creation because they are created beings. You need the heart of the Creator to know the span of the materials that put heaven and earth together. No matter how long the earth is given a chance, after a while, it will begin to fade. If God leaves the universe alone, there will be commotion in space. Earthly creatures will begin to fall apart.
The word ‘forever’ is the measure of a creature based on its make. Everything God made was everlasting. It was sin that entered creation and cut short the lifespan of the good things God made; and His main aim was man. These days, products are wearing out easily. Manufacturers are no longer faithful. The corruption is flowing from the heart - the soul. You can tell the lifespan of a soul by their kind of conversations.
The word of God has been corrupted, and the quality of the word has dropped. God had mercy on me such that from childhood, I have been searching for the pure and undiluted word of God. Some believers are not interested in the good word of God. They would rather have fake words along with good houses and cars. The seed of faith comes first to prepare your heart for quality. The purpose of faith is to heal you from corruption. Faith’s lifestyle installs in you the ability to give room to the everlasting seed to express itself without tampering with it.
If God sows in you the incorruptible seed and you refuse it, then you must be wicked. I fear a man who throws Christ’s seed away. I’m afraid of any soul that will not allow Christ to grow. There are natures souls fell into, and inheritances inherited from spirits, that the word of God needs to heal them from. Good refers to everlasting; anything that is good in God’s sight is everlasting. That is the only state that God can reach. God cannot reach anything below that standard. God will reach an everlasting man. He is eternal, but He can come down to reach an everlasting man.
All men must know that the earth and heavens will come to an end. Angels know this and they do not want to end with their habitat without remedy. Therefore, angels are hastening men to new heavens and a new earth.
2 Peter 3:10-14
"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. [11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, [12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? [13] Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. [14] Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless."
Here, Peter was saying that believers ought to look for new heavens and new earth. We are to hasten in search for new heavens and earth. As we do this, we hasten the dissolution of this present. Many believers do not actually want Jesus to come because of the things they are yet to achieve. This would mean the life they are living now is better and more profitable than the coming of our Lord.
God would be unjust if He made Adam lower than the everlasting. The story would have been that man was not a finished good at creation. The everlasting life is the finished life. It is the expected life of a manufactured good. Sin came into creation and it fell far below quality. God came to remedy it by raising it back to everlasting life. If God gives us a life lower than everlasting life, then He has not given us life yet.
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
The gospel is to give everlasting life to man. A man is lost if he is below everlasting.
Revelation 14:6
"And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people..."
Romans 1:16
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."
There are many gospels but not all of them are everlasting. The gospel brings you to a place where you are no longer lacking; it brings you to salvation. It is an appreciable state of the everlasting life - the full measure of the stature of the Son of God. It is Christ’s life that gets us there, and then it takes us to God’s life. We all need to see the agenda of God clearly. We are at the end right now. This signifies when the ministry of everlasting life will be made known - this is the gospel.
Tongues and Interpretation
“Heaven, heaven, heaven! Heaved heaven! The gospel of everlasting is to heave you up. Where God is comfortable dwelling is in heavens. I want to give you the gospel that will heave you up and take you out of the plains of the earth. Even in the world to come, it is a heaved gospel; it is a heavenly gospel heralded in the heaven. Listen for the everlasting gospel, for it is a gospel of the heaven; it is a gospel designed for complete and total salvation. No man can experience being saved to the uttermost without experiencing this gospel; for it is my gospel. It is a heaved gospel; it is an everlasting gospel. It is a heavenly gospel.
(Message continues…)
A believer can go to heaven without everlasting life. God loved the world and gave His only begotten Son, not Christ (John 3:16). Our Lord is more than Christ; He is God. He is our provision; He is the gift of God. God knows that for us to attain eternal life, we need everlasting life. The expectation of God is that we make sure we use our lives unto everlasting life. For a man to be a finished good in the New Testament, he needs to come into life everlasting. If you have never heard the everlasting gospel, there is no way you will remain. It is He who does the will of God that abides forever (1 John 2:17).
There are two states of everlasting life: the living everlasting life and the abiding everlasting life. The latter is one who has inherited eternal life and can abide forever; he has received the everlasting gospel. Everlasting gospel is the incorruptible seed that liveth and abideth forever (1 Pet. 1:23). When you abide, the evil one cannot touch you anymore. Such a man is one that can last with life. By patient continuance in everlasting life and doing it well, it brings you to eternal life (Rom. 2:7).
John 6:40
"And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day."
You might believe in Jesus and be born again and yet not have everlasting life. After having everlasting life, one is raised up to eternal life. God will not raise anyone up when they are not abiding. To raise you up is to lift you up. No one will raise himself up; it is the devil who does that. He threatened that he would exalt himself.
We must learn to abide in life everlasting. The everlasting life of the New Testament is more powerful than creation. Yet, as powerful as it is, it is not the end of a man. God still wants to raise a man who has attained everlasting life. Even if you are abiding in everlasting life, you are still underneath God. Such a man is still underneath the refuge of God and not in it. God wants to raise such a man into a refuge.
God raising you up comes with a lesson. There, you learn that only God can empower one to be lifted. Only God can raise you up at the last day. This last day is the last day of everlasting life. God shows up to raise men who have arrived there into eternal refuge. This eternal refuge is not heaven but God Himself. It is the home in God. It is the mansion in the Father’s house (Jn. 14:2-3).
There are many mansions in God’s house. The mansions in God’s house are set but our appreciation in everlasting life needs to be validated before we can be taken into the refuge of eternal life. When God has seen how you abide in everlasting life, He will give you your portion in eternal refuge. This is the same as being known as you are known (1 Cor. 13:12). To be known is to appear before God.
Tongues and Interpretation
"It is this season; it is this season I have waited for. I have waited for this season to come over you. I have plotted the graph of My leading among you and taken you through different realms in the spirit to arrive at this season. It is in this season I have waited for where I would declare things without holding back, the time to open My mouth wide to declare My judgement; judgement of things everlasting. This is the season in which I will speak things to arrange you within for you to see My abode. For you to see My abode is a great blessing. For to know my abode is a great calling.
This abode stood as an entrance before Adam and he fell short of it. This is the season where I will show things everlasting and call you into things eternal. I am calling you to do everlasting things and I will bring you into Eden that the waters are issuing from. I will call you even into the place of the throne. I will make you know the way of the throne even by things everlasting. Do everlasting. I have been sent to show you that that which is before you is eternal. This season is an everlasting season and I have waited for this season, says God."

God will not raise anyone into life eternal who does not know the value of it. If you have not appreciated Christ's life, then you will not value eternal life. No one who hates faith life should talk about immortality. If you still love this world, you cannot come close to eternal life. The only way you can show yourself worthy of eternal life is to be an everlasting man.
Everlasting works are not outward works. They are works that the Holy Ghost and Christ in you will build in you. An everlasting work is a kind of man who is worthy of eternal life. He is the only man that can enter the abode and go into God’s refuge.
The everlasting God and eternal God are totally different. The eternal God is above the everlasting God. The eternal God is the refuge dimension of God. It is God’s secret place. God will not bring anyone there who is not worthy of eternal life. Anyone who does not like everlasting life cannot be made eternal. These places of His refuge are secret places and God does not share them with just anybody.
If God’s secret place is a refuge, then it is a fortress, a home, a house. Jesus called it His Father’s house. This means the Father has a place where He stays. This house is not heaven neither is it in the clouds. This house is a Being. God cannot dwell in a house made with hands. He cannot even dwell in heaven.
Man is also not God’s refuge. This refuge belongs to God. It is His own. This home has been before we were made. He is to take us there. Nobody built the house; the house is Himself. The eternal side of God is the refuge of God. It is the place of God’s salvation. If it is safe for God, then it is safe for us.
John 20:17
"Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God."
The Father and God are the places we are being called to. This is what Jesus announced at His resurrection. No wonder God is referred to as the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ throughout the epistles.

"Open door! Open door! For I stand here in your midst as an open door. For the door is open. I beckon you to come. For the door is open. The eternal One has opened the door. For you are touching the borders of life eternal. For the door is open. For ‘I am’ is the open door. For the door is open. The door is open."
