STATEMENTS BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU
ANYONE WHO HUMBLES HIMSELF ISGREATEST IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE GREATEST INHEAVEN. BUT WHILE HE WAS HERE ON EARTHPHYSICALLY, HE HUMBLED HIMSELF, AND ATALL TIMES MOVED WITH THE POOR ANDLOWLY-PLACED PEOPLE. THAT IS WHY THETEACHINGS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ANDHIS HUMILITY ARE PREACHED THROUGHOUTTHE WHOLE WORLD DAILY SO THATEVERYBODY WILL EMULATE HIS GOODEXAMPLE OF HUMILITY.IF YOU WANT TO BE GREAT YOU MUSTBE A SERVANT.
 
THE GREATEST AMONG YOUMUST BE THE SERVANT. THIS IS THE ONLYPATH OF SALVATION. THIS IS THE ONLYSOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS OF THE WORLD.THOSE WHO PRACTICE THIS GOSPEL WILL NOTHAVE ANY PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD. YOUMUST HAVE FAITH IN GOD. YOU MUST RECEIVETHE TEACHINGS OF GOD AND YOU MUSTPRACTICE THE TEACHINGS OF GOD. WHEN YOUDO THIS YOU WILL HAVE NO PROBLEMS INLIFE.THE GREATEST AMONG YOU MUST BETHE SERVANT. HE MUST SERVE OTHERS. YOUHAVE TO THINK OF THE WELFARE OF OTHERS.

YOU HAVE TO SERVE OTHERS. DO NOTSTRUGGLE FOR MONEY, DO NOT STRUGGLEFOR POSITION AND POWER. DO NOT SIT DOWNLIKE A KING AND GIVE DIRECTIVES TO OTHERSTO DO SOMETHING. PROVIDE SERVICE TOOTHERS. BY SO DOING YOU WILL PROVIDE THELEADERSHIP BY YOUR GOOD EXAMPLE.When those whom you are leading observe thatthe greatest among them is the servant, and is servingrather than waiting for others to serve him, then all of them will stand up and provide services to one another.It is the will of God to use base things to select thingsthat are despised, to magnify his glory. Remember thatif you hold yourself in a very high esteem, God cannotselect you to fulfill His will. He says I am a jealous God.He will exalt you, and thereafter will bring you down soanother person from a lowly position will replace you.The reason is to ensure that you are not unnecessarily proud. It is the height of foolishness for any person tosay he is indispensable. As a point of information, Godhad already executed His plan and accomplished Hiswill. He has already selected the instruments of His ruleand kept them in order. His will is to use the base thingsof this world to put to nought the things which aremighty. If we were to regard ourselves as fools, by nowGod would have used us effectively; for it is His will touse foolishness to nullify wisdom. But when one beginsto show one's pomposity and arrogance, professing thatone is wise, that one is powerful, or that one isindispensable, then God will use a very lowly placed person to bring one to nought.
You should continue tohumble yourself even when God raises you up, for

this is why He says, that except we become like asmall child, we cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
 The central problem of the entire world is that,once God has elevated somebody, no other personshould be allowed to pass along the street. If your  pomposity is based on the fact that you are wealthy or that you own a costly car, or that you are a white man,you should know that TO HUMBLE ONESELF TOTHE GROUND IS TO LIFT ONESELF UP.
