Hell Testimonies by Mike Peralta (good short books .TXT) 📕

life and service by the visions of Heaven given to some contemporary believers by the Holy Spirit. When the Lord gives such edifying revelations we are to "Comfort one another with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:18

1 Thessalonians 5:16-22. "Rejoice ever more. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearances of evil."

We should not despise prophesying because it is still one of God's ways of speaking to individual believers, the local church, the body of Christ and the entire humanity. To despise the revelations given by God is to quench the move of the Holy Spirit in the church and in the world.

When the Lord gives a spiritual revelation concerning an individual, a local church, the body of Christ or men in general, such should be proved by the truth and teaching of the Scripture. If the Scripture confirms the revelation to be of God, it should be received with thanksgiving and joy. We are commanded to hold fast that which is good. Never speak evil or take any evil step against the revelations of the Holy Spirit. Visions and revelations are still part of the ways God ministers to the edification of the body of Christ and saves the souls of lost men in the world.

 

Can I Depend On You, My Son?

My father and mother are real Christians. When I shared these revelations with our local Church, my mother came up publicly and testified of the insight she had received. She said, "I used to take God for granted before; but now I see things clearly." I wept that day for her testimony. I gave my life to Christ when I was 13 years old. I grew with my parents who were faithful members of a Pentecostal church. It was far later that they became members of Deeper Life Bible church. My father is a coordinator in the church. I am a disciplined believer. I do spend much time before God in fasting and prayer.

The appearance of Jesus Christ to me was not in secret but publicly. It was during the National Easter Retreat of Deeper Life Bible church in Takum Region, Taraba state, Nigeria. Over 2000 participants attended the Retreat: adults, youths and children. All were fully aware of what went on with me. They can testify of my Christian life and of the divine visitation I received during the Retreat.

As the Lord opens doors for me to share these revelations with people, there are those who receive them with open heart, having proved them to be God's word. They spread them far and near, not minding the cost. Such know that they are doing the will of God. They see it as the message the hardened, skeptical world, the lukewarm church and the persecuted church need now for their salvation, revival and comfort.

But there are those who are skeptical and would want to resist the spread of these revelations. They would want to discourage me so that I may not continue. Such I would advise to be sober and to see things in the light of Scripture. Jesus had foreseen their acts and the cross I would carry for this assignment when He asked me in
Heaven in tears,

"My son Brother Mike, many to whom I gave like revelations and commission disappointed me. Can I depend on you?"

God will surely depend on me. Amen. Some years ago, the Lord gave me a promise that He would use my voice all round the world for His glory. I did not understand what He meant. However, I wrote the promise down and it was forgotten. Recently I went through my diary and discovered that promise to my great surprise. Today the cassettes of these revelations have gone to many places according to the will of God. The Lord shall send them to the furthest ends of the world in Jesus name. Amen. The Lord wants the standard of His word to be kept. Jude exhorts:

Jude 3. "Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once given unto the saints."

My conviction is that a man must be born again before he can be called a Christian. Water baptism is for those who are born again. A believer needs sanctification of his heart. Baptism with the Holy Spirit is an experience separate from salvation and sanctification and is God's promise for all believers for effective service. Holiness of life is a must for entry into Heaven. My outward appearance is devoid of worldliness. I live holily, justly and unblameable before God and in the sight of men. God gives me the grace for this.

 

God Confirms These Revelations By Scriptural Signs

Matthew 11:2-6. "Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, And said unto Him, Art thou He that should come, or do we look for another? Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in Me."

Jesus here gave the signs that proved that He was the Messiah and His message was from God. God usually manifests clear signs to confirm that these revelations which I share everywhere are from Him. Hardened and hidden sinners and backsliders repent in dust and ashes when they hear my testimony. Believers press forward for sanctification of their hearts. People carry out restitutions to make right their ways with God and men. Believers become fervent in spirit and holy in character. God baptizes his saints with the Holy Spirit.

 People receive miracle healing and deliverance by the power of God. A woman who had been barren for 10 years came to me for counseling. After a simple prayer for her, she wrote me later that she had conceived. A woman who had practiced witchcraft for three years and had killed her four children, repented in dust and ashes and became delivered and converted. Many other signs have been given by God to justify these things. What is my aim in defending these revelations? My aim is to glorify Jesus and make people believe in Him and serve God in Holiness and Righteous-ness:

"But these things are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye might have life through His name." John 20:31

For those who remain hardened in unbelief and have rejected this Heavenly experience and the message it conveys to man,

John 8:42-47. "Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love Me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but He sent Me. Why do ye not understand My speech? Even because ye cannot hear My word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe Me not. Which of you convinceth Me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe Me? He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God."

"If I do not the works of My Father, believe Me not. But if I do, though ye believe not Me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in Me, and I in Him."

Anyone who soberly listens to or reads through these divine revelations given to me will believe that God gave them. As for me I pledge commitment to the gospel of Christ and to the commission He has given to me.

 

My Commitment to Christ's Commission

I came across the commitment of an African Pastor. I produced and pasted it by my bedside. It is equally my commitment.

"I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have the Holy Spirit power. The die has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I am a disciple of His. I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still.

My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secured. I am finished and done with low living, sight-walking, small planning, smooth knees, colourless dreams, tamed vision, mundane talking, cheap living and dwarf goals.

I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position, promotion, plaudits, or popularity. I don't have time to be first, top, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, live by prayer, and labour by power.

My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is Heaven, my road is narrow, my way rough, my companions few, my guide reliable, my mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.

I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up, preached up, for the course of Christ. I am a disciple of Jesus.

I must go until He comes, give until I drop, preach until all know, and
work until He stops me. And when He comes for His own, He will
have no problem recognizing me — my banner will be clear! Amen."

 

Ch 6 - Scriptural Insights

Let us examine the Scripture on important issues of eternal consequence.

 

A. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth, and The Life

John 14:6. "Jesus said unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, But by Me."

Acts 4:12. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under Heaven giving among men, whereby we must be saved."

1 John 5:11-13. "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God."

The Bible reveals clearly that the Godhead is made up of three separate Persons, each distinct from the other. The first is called God the Father, the second is God the Son and the third is God the Holy Spirit. These three separate Persons make up the one God that we serve. Each one of these three Persons is God in all fullness. No one is greater than the others. The three Persons are united in one and there can be no separation. Each one of these three is the Creator, the Lord, and the eternal God. Yet we do not have three Creators, Lords, or eternal Gods, but One. The Scripture says:

"And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear O Israel; The Lord our God is One Lord." Mark 12:29

God the Son came to the world in human form. His name was called Jesus Christ. He came to save mankind from sin and to restore man to eternal life with God.

John 1:1-3,10,14. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew him not. 14 And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth."

Matthew 1:21-23. "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His
