THE PLACE OF PROPHETIC SPIRITUAL WORK/PRAYER RITES IN CELESTIAL CHURCH OF CHRIST.

Celestial church of christ has 5 major pillars.

1. COMMANDMENT [ASE/OFIN] HYMN 291
2. DOCTRINE [EKO] HYMN 602 
3. WORSHIP [ESIN] HYMN 72
4. ORDINANCE [ILANA] HYMN 680:3
5. PRAYER [ADURA] HYMN 280

COMMANDMENTS(ASE/OFIN) 
The commandments can also be called instructions,and just like he gave to Adam in the garden of Eden. He gave to us in Celestial church of Christ, which are like an addendum to the already existing 10 commandments. They are 1. A celestial must not drink alcohol 2. A celestial must not wear black or red apparel 3. A celestial must not night crawl 4. A celestial must not smoke cigarette, weed etc. 5. A celestial must no eat pork 6. A celestial must not join any cult and must renounce before joining 7. Women should stay away from the church during their period 8. Restriction of women on spiritual rites. 9. Adultery and fornication is forbidden for celestials etc.

Commandments presents the moral will of God in our lives. It shows us how God wants us to live our lives morally and socially. That our life's reflects the light of God and the glory of his kingdom.

The commandments are the first thing that teaches us the fear of God and show that we are obedient children of God, because without obedience to commandments we cannot walk with God.

Commandments or instructions are the foundational levels of the faith and fear of God. It is the basis of the belief in the sovereignty of God almighty.

Genesis 26:4-5 KJV
And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; [5] Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 KJV
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Psalm 119:98-100 KJV
Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. [99] I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. [100] I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

Psalm 111:10 KJV
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments : his praise endureth for ever.

There is no establishment of God without commandments, because God uses it to instill is fear and the knowledge of himself

1 John 2:3 KJV
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

DOCTRINES (Eko):
The doctrines are our teachings. They are the knowledge , wisdom and understanding of God's kingdom. Celestial church of Christ has teachings on various rites and sacraments of the church. One of the major doctrines of celestial is sanctification. The doctrine of sanctification is very wide and broad, it affects all aspects of celestial, like worship, ordinance and even prayer. Before anyone can be called a celestial,he or she must first go through sanctification. Some of the doctrines of celestial can therefore be listed as follows:

1. Baptism
2. Anointment.(Functions and positions including role of women in Celestial) 
3. Tithing. 
4. Communion. 
5. Washing of feet. 
6. Resurrection, Ascension , Pentecost. 
7. Harvest. 
8. Convocation [At imeko]
9. Ressurection [Amissa]
ETC

Hebrews 6:1-2 KJV
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, [2] Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

The doctrines are meant to lead us into perfection and thus shape our life's.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Celestial doctrines teaches holiness required of man to live the life of heavenly kingdom, the kingdom of God presided over by Jesus Christ, so that our works and deeds can be acceptable in the level he has placed us. All this doctrines have extensive teachings which are part of what forms our belief and faith. Celestial hymn 708 stanza 3 says this is your treasure, your worship and your virtues/behaviour,this will save you in this life and this life to come. Hymn 633 also says the Lord of heaven is shouting, your worship and your virtues /behaviour will take you to heaven. The doctrine are therefore to reform or reshape our ways/virtues/behaviour

2 Peter 1:3-7 KJV
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: [4] Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. [5] And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; [6] And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; [7] And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

Acts 2:42 KJV
And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

The doctrines revealed along with Celestial church of Christ does not nullify the doctrines of the apostles or doctrines of the Bible which the Bible mentioned a few are, washing of feet, holy communion etc but perfects it with divine ordinances. One of such doctrine is the doctrine of love, faith which have all being merged inside the celestial church of Christ doctrines like harvest, tithing etc.

WORSHIP(ESIN):
Celestial Church of Christ was descended with a replica of heavenly heavenly worship with specific days chosen by God. Few of our worship are therefore thus. 
1. MERCY WORSHIP 2. POWER WORSHIP 3. NEW MOON WORSHIP 4. PROPHET AND PROPHETESS WORSHIP 5. PREGNANT WOMEN WORSHIP 6. GOODNEWS WORSHIP ALSO CALLED GLORIOUS WORSHIP 7. AMISSA WORSHIP 8. CHILD NAMING CEREMONY WORSHIP 9. HOLY MARY DAY WORSHIP 10. LAYING OF ALTAR WORSHIP 11. WASHING OF FEET WORSHIP 12. GOOD FRIDAY WORSHIP 13. PASSION WEEK WORSHIP 14. HARVEST WORSHIP 15. MARRIAGE WORSHIP. 16. END OF THE YEAR CONVOCATION WORSHIP

The centre of heavenly worship is bowing of the head. What today's Christians erroneously take worship as singing very slow songs in a sober mood and raising or waving hands. That is not worship.
Genesis 24:26 KJV
And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord.

Exodus 34:8 KJV
And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

Genesis 24:52 KJV
And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's servant heard their words, he worshipped the Lord , bowing himself to the earth.

Exodus 4:31 KJV
And the people believed: and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.

Revelation 11:16 KJV
And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

2 Chronicles 7:3 KJV
And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the Lord , saying , For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.

It is therefore expedient for all celestial who are called to bow their heads before the maker of heaven and earth. The mystery of bowing the head is what manifest celestial as the church of heaven descended in this last days, so that man worship not wood and stick and the work of his hands but the Almighty God.

Revelation 7:11 KJV
And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

Revelation 4:10 KJV
The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

Those who worship God or who are worthy to worship God in bowing their heads are those who have given their lives to him in totality. Which means in them their is no iota of rebellion but total obedience. The importance of man worshipping or bowing down his head to God can be traced back to eden in the creation of man. When God subjected his whole creation under their feet in the book of Genesis.

For putting everything under man's feet it mean,it means every creation of God which is subject to man must bow to him. In essence man has an image and likeness of God must return all subjects back to God by bowing his head.

Hebrews 2:8 KJV
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.

Psalm 8:1,3-8 KJV
O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. [3] When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; [4] What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? [5] For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. [6] Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: [7] All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; [8] The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

1 Corinthians 15:22-28 KJV
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. [23] But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. [24] Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. [25] For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. [26] The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [27] For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted which did put all things under him. [28] And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

This is what satan saw in Jesus Christ and asked him to bow to him!

Matthew 4:8-10 KJV
Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; [9] And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. [10] Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Therefore it is with divine added grace that we are given to bow our head which by spiritual implication is why we are commanded not to wear shoes when we are in our garment, to signify those who the world and all principalities and powers are subject to.

He knew the implication of Jesus Christ bowing to him and worshipping him because if Jesus did he would have placed all authority in the hands of satan and satan would have succeeded with his plan which he hatched in heaven before his fall

A practical example is as we see it in our mode of worship before thanksoffering, the elders who are to take the offering first bow their heads infront of the altar and after they receive the thanks offering they bow again to God show that only God is worthy to receive thanks. Even though they have received the thanks on Gods behalf they return it back to him by bowing down their heads in worship.

ORDINANCE [ILANA] 
Ordinance is a standard and ordered way of doing things. Standard means it is uniform. It does not change from place to place. It's the same. Ordered means decreed, binding, from a higher authority and in this case divine authority.

Celestials do not understand the basics of what the ordinances are or what forms the ordinances (ILANA) of celestial church of Christ. The role that the ordinances play in our worship is to show that firstly celestial church of Christ is a church of heaven descended and secondly to manifest that the church is the body of Christ that cannot be broken.

Ephesians 4:3-5 KJV
Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. [4] There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; [5] One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
The celestial ordinances has three major aspects. 1. The ordinance of worship 2. The ordinance of prayer 3. The ordinance of clothing/garments.

The ordinance of worship: encompasses all celestial worship. Each worship has unique order and standard which is required for the fellowship with heavenly host depending on the type of worship.

For instance, the service for the needy which is done at 9am every Wednesday is a very simple short service. It does the require the singing of JERIMOHYAHMAH or YAH RAH SARAH. The worship starts with the hymn OGUN ORUN EYA WOLE, HEAVENLY HOST DESCEND IN A RUSH.... This hymn will be sang with lighting of the Holy candles then bowing of head in worship after that. Worthy of note is that only hymns specifically chosen by the ordinance which is in the book of celestial ordinance for this worship must be sang. No other hymn apart from this hymn is acceptable, unlike the worship of the same Wednesday at 6pm which we are allowed to chose hymns.

Sadly the worship of the needy which is done on Wednesday at 9am has many versions today in celestial church of Christ, which is not according to the divine standard and order given to celestial. This act of creating our own order not only sets us against God but also divides the church which is a body of Christ which must have ONE LORD,
ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM.

If the worship of the needy [ESIN AWOJU OLUWA] is done in all celestial church of Christ worldwide at the same time with the same ordinance this act manifest that there is ONE LORD who is not an author of confusion and we his obedient children.

Some people are of the school of thought that the Holy Spirit can direct people to do it in another way. It is possible. Let's take the worship of the needy as an example. We know that from divine order the worship does not have thanksgiving in it. The Holy Spirit can direct that thanks be offered on a particular worship of the needy, this directive MUST have a time frame. E.g only one Wednesday or three Wednesdays at most seven Wednesdays. The Holy Spirit will not make it seem standard for such parish that the thanksgiving should be done forever. NO. This directive may come as a grace to receive something special. The parish must not therefore make it a standard To be doing it every Wednesday worship. If it becomes a standard then the ordinance is broken and the parish is on their own doing their own will and not God's will. They have therefore cut themselves off from the celestial ordinances, order and covenant

The ordinance of prayer: Celestial church of Christ was given a divine key for prayer. This mode of prayer sets us apart uniquely from all churches in the world today. We are divinely instructed to start every prayer with JEHOVAH, JESUS CHRIST, HOLY MICHAEL. This is the only area where we still maintain a unifying order till today.

1 Timothy 5:21 KJV
I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.

Ordinance of clothing/garment: The uniqueness of celestial church of Christ manifest in our mode of dressing of both male and female. This mode of dressing also uniquely identifies the various ministries in the body of Christ the church. Celestial church of Christ is the only church on earth that has the 5 ministries complete which forms the body Christ.

Ephesians 4:11-12 KJV
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; [12] For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

1 Corinthians 12:27-28 KJV
Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. [28] And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

These five ministries is established in celestial church of Christ with different garment design that identify their position and function. Prophets, Evangelist, apostles, teachers ,shepherds

Apart from identification, the different garment designs shows the work given to every individual called into celestial church of Christ in the body of Christ which is determined by spiritual gifts and spiritual growth

Each garment has its corresponding colours and design as each individual rises in the journey of this Heavenly call. Therefore the shape, style and color of our garment should correspond with spiritual growth just like in the military where ranking or promotion is given according to experience and competence which is reflected in design of uniform and ranks.

Therefore in Papas days celestial clothing pattern was uniform all over celestial church of Christ. Every rank worn by celestial world wide Was the same, there was no disparity in design, color, or shape.

In order not to make mistakes and because anointment is done by Christ through the high priest, the pastor, and because of the careful details of the sutana design, the order of ranking, superiority and function in clothing (ordinances of clothing) was revealed to Papa SBJ Oshoffa alone, it didn't come through any prophet. Just as the prophet Samuel was told to go and anoint David as king in the stead of Saul, Samuel was looking at the face but God looked at the heart, and since that of celestial church of Christ requires order of dressing which is a sensitive part of the church's spiritual growth, it was revealed to the founder alone.

For ordinance to be called ordinance since it is standard and ordered and not broken, it MUST be the same all over. This is when we can be called a church under ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM.
[For the purpose of this post we will not go deep into celestial ranking, functions and positions which is another topic for another day]

PRAYER [PRAYER]: 
Hymn 280 We have a prayer church ... etc. E waa jo sin.

Prayer is one of the ways of communing with God

Psalm 17:1 KJV
Hear the right, O Lord , attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.

Psalm 141:2 KJV
Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Psalm 6:9 KJV
The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.

Mark 11:17 KJV
And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Our request are made know to God through prayers. Prayer not only makes us recognise God as the creator but as the giver of all things [JEHOVAH ELYON]. Prayer shows that all power comes from God [JORI-HAH-HI-HU] that man has no power in himself to do or to make, which then we are given according to our measure.
Prayer manifest our faith in God ,our growth in spirit and the power of God which is mysterious.

Philippians 4:6 KJV
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Hebrews 11:6 KJV
But without faith it is impossible to please him : for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Romans 8:26-27 KJV
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. [27] And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

It means in prayers two things are majorly needed, faith and holy spirit the third is sanctification

Ephesians 4:6-7 KJV
One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. [7] But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

Prayer takes different forms and for different purpose.

Prayer has two branches. This two branches of prayer is found in celestial church of Christ.

The two branches are
1. Prayer which is done as an act to seek the face of the Lord by request or supplication (in our songs (hymn book) , psalms )
Ephesians 5:19 KJV
Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

2. Prayer rite which involves the use of objects.
James 5:14-15 KJV
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: [15] And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

The question therefore is what makes this two forms of prayer important and necessary? Why do we need objects before we can pray?

Prayer is under the absolute control of two things as earlier stated, spirit and faith. Prayer is more effective as efficient when it is directed by the spirit of God and also done in faith.
James 4:3 KJV
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.

To answer these questions let us look at two accounts of Jesus miracles.

John 9:3-7 KJV
Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. [4] I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. [5] As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. [6] When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, [7] And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

John 5:2-9 KJV
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. [3] In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water. [4] For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had. [5] And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. [6] When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case , he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? [7] The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. [8] Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. [9] And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

This two accounts shows different forms of healing done by Jesus. One by a simple command and the other by a rite.

The two accounts shows that God is not limited by any situation to do as he pleases or chooses but each situation is as directed by the spirit of God. Although both men where sick of various illness but where cured according to the works of God which are numerous. John 5:2-9 describes that any man who gets into the pool is healed of what ever diseases even blindness,it means the pool which the angel stirred was effective for anyone who gets into it and also the command of Jesus Christ was effective for whoever had encounter with him and he chooses to have mercy on.

Romans 8:26-27 KJV
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. [27] And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

Prayer rites is therefore not a doctrine or an ordinance but it manifest the miracle working power of God in healing and deliverance of man

HOWEVER THE FATHER IS DOING HIS WORK, HIS WORKS ARE UNKNOWN, HE RULED HIS OWN ON THE SEA, THE SUN, THE MOON WITH HIS PEOPLE, They are appreciated. Amen.

It has been stated earlier that one of the purpose of prayer is to show God as not only the creator but the one who has power over and above everything, this is exactly what manifest in this two forms of prayers, and this is the what Jesus manifested in his earthly life with various forms of miracles performed by him

The second question is why do we use objects?

The power God gave to man, made all his creation subject to him, but man lost this position and was placed subject under death, Satan is the messenger of death and the prince of the power of darkness. The earth which God cursed for man's sake is also under the subjection of death invariably all creation is under the subject of death and Satan who resides in hell.

This was why Jesus Christ said in

Matthew 16:18 KJV
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
This grace did not manifest fully during the apostles because the time was not yet appointed

Ephesians 2:7-8 KJV
That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. [8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Paul lamented in

Romans 8:19-23 KJV
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. [20] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, [21] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [23] And not only they , but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit , the redemption of our body.

Paul apostle speaks further in the book of

Ephesians 3:9-10 KJV
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: [10] To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God.

The intent which Paul apostle speaks therefore in Ephesians 3:10 is that the whole creation be under the absolute authority of man, Christ Jesus and God almighty.

Since the fall of man the whole creation is subject in bondage against man, because of this bondage under darkness the kingdom of darkness can use the creation against man. To remove this bondage there has to be a manifestation of the power of the kingdom of God through the blood of Jesus Christ. This explains the miracle of Jesus Christ in spitting on the ground and his command to the blind man to wash in the river.

Jesus spitting on the ground and molding into clay shows that the power to remove the curse on the ground and creation which works against man is in him. He used this things SPIT(which can be likened to water and blood) SAND (which is the main component of the ground) and WATER (which is a major component of the earth) for healing and deliverance.

HYMN: POWER IS IN THE BLOOD OF THE SHEEP

HYMN: THE POWER IS IN JESUS ​​CARE THAT EVERYONE CAN SEE

When we are therefore commanded by the Holy Spirit to use certain items for deliverance, healing and victory, it shows one thing, which is the manifestation of the power in the blood of Jesus in the liberation of the creation of God, that the creations of God are no more under the subject and control of the kingdom of darkness working against us.

Just like the word of God [doctrine and ordinances] can be diluted by man and Satan leading to heresies and sedition so also can prayer rites be manipulated by the kingdom of darkness. Today we find many of such strange rites which are not of the kingdom of light. The children of light must therefore be weary to test spirits because false prophets and false prophecy abounds.

Was Jesus Christ fetish when he spat on the ground and made clay and asked the man to wash in the river? 
The scripture says God wrought special miracles from the hands of Paul

Acts 19:11-12 KJV
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: [12] So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

Through things that will be called ordinary like handkerchiefs and aprons where used in healing and casting out demons.

We must come to the understanding that to be able to identify the spirits of darkness from light and also that prophets may be ready tools in the hands of the Holy angels and not satanic angels, we must grow in the doctrines of celestial church of Christ especially sanctification.

If we grow in the doctrines (Eko) and worship in true ordinances (ILANA) and observe the commandment (Ofin/Ase) we will be rooted in the understanding of celestial church of Christ and the power of the kingdom to come so much that we will wrought special miracles. During the days of our fathers we didn't have complex prayer rites like we have today, prayer rites then where done according to the command of the Holy Spirit, but today many rites are taken from seven books of Moses, some prophets even go as far as learning bringing rites from other churches that are not even celestial.

The miracles Jesus Christ did was not the major reason for his coming. The miracles are to set people free from the bondage of darkness which binds the body so that our belief and faith can be strengthened. The main purpose of his coming is too free the soul, give the Holy Spirit and guarantee the resurrection to eternal life. This is the same purpose of the coming of Celestial church of Christ in the fulfilment and completion of the works of Jesus Christ.

Hymn 706
1. KRISTI lode, lati se ise, Re ti ko lopin Kristi lode, lati se ise Re ti ko lopin, Ijo Mimo t'orun, e ho f'ayo, Ijo Mimo ti aiye yi, E kun fun orin iyin s'Oluwa wa, Kristi lo de, lati se ise Re ti ko lopin, Kristi lo de, lati se ise Re ti ko lopin.

2. Ayo aiye yi, Igba die l'Oluwa wi, Ayo aiye yi, Igbala die l'Oluwa wi, Ayo aiye yi, Igbala die l'Oluwa wi, Ayo ti odo Baba, Ogo 'lopo ju, Kristi lo de, lati se ise Re ti ko lopin, Kristi lo de, lati se ise Re ti ko lopin. Amin.

DIVINE ORDER
2. On the 29th of September, 1947, in the deep mystery of the divine appearance, during prayer, of the winged angel bathed in intense light, word came from God to the Founder:
"It is the wish of God to send you on an errand of preaching to the world. Many nominal 
Christians there are who, when confronted by difficulties and problems of this world, they run after fetish priests and other powers of darkness for all kinds of assistance. Consequently, on their death, they cannot see Christ because, by their action, Satan has left his spiritual mark on them. To assist you in your work so that men may listen to and follow you, miraculous works of Holy divine healing will be carried out by you in the name of Jesus Christ. These works of divine healing and God's spiritual mark on you will testify to the fact that God sent you". Thus was born the world-wide CELESTIAL CHURCH OF CHRIST

Let us therefore understand and appreciate that the purpose of God for us is to grow in his word(every word including ordinances and doctrine) and power of the spirit, only then can prayer be effective, only then can prayers have meaning, only then can we pray correctly, only then we will not destroy worship.

May the spirit the descended celestial church of Christ guide all those who obey the commandments, grow in the doctrines and worship in the true ordinances of celestial church of Christ. Amen
