Dynamic Scriptures 4


By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom!

"And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof" (Genesis 2:19).

Did you see that? Or like Chief Zebrudaya of the Masquarade fame would say, 'Are you see what I am saw?' There was a depth of intimacy and trust that existed between God and Adam to the point that God brought the newly created animals to him to name. Adam gave all the animals and every other living creatures their names. Isn't this wonderful! It wasn't God Who gave all living creatures their names. He left that job to Adam.

The next time you see a dog, cockroach, an eagle, fish, a cat, an elephant or any other creature at all, remember that it was a man like you that gave that creature its name.

This is the kind of intimacy God desires to have with us His dear children. He is yearning to be so close to the point of mutual trust and fellowship. The Maker of heaven and earth, Owner of the Universe, your Father and close Friend.

When God met out His judgements upon Egypt, He used Moses to do it. At the words of Moses things happened - there were sparks of God's power flying from Moses.

God had a discussion with Abraham about Sodom and Gomorha before He sent His angels to destroy those cities. God knew that Abraham would intercede for them and He was prepared to be merciful, but the people were unrepentant, so God kicked their butts - destroyed them.

I learnt from the Word of God that God hates it whenever He had to judge. O how He hates it. But He loves it when WE his people live in such a way that all He wants to do is to bless US and give US all the good things WE DESIRE.

He is our loving Father and gracious God.

Till next posting, God bless YOU.

Time Element in Faith

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! There is an element of time involved in the principle of faith. Misunderstanding this important element will cause a failure of faith. The Bible says, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). When should one take the step of faith? (Now!) Paul said, "Now faith is . . . the evidence of things not seen". When you are standing by faith, what you're believing God for is neither seen nor felt. You're just standing in faith for it - calling those things which be not as though they were. If you've asked God for a car, by faith you say, 'I believe that I have my car now.' This is neither pretence nor a lie. You really must believe this way. You don't have to see it first or feel it before you believe it. In fact, we do not need to look for any sign or hear a voice to know our prayers are heard. Once we pray, God wants us to believe that the need is met NOW WHE...

A Soldier Gone To Headquaters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! A senior friend just went home to be with the Lord, PASTOR PATRICK EZEKUDE OBAZE. He was aged 78 years old. I got to know him in 1985 after I became a part of the Faith Clinic which was founded by Rev. (Dr.) I.K.U. Ibeneme of blessed memory. Uncle 'Bobo' Obaze, as was fondly called by Dr. Ibeneme, was one of the numerous workers that the Faith Clinic had in those days in the mid-80s. All the workers came from different churches and ministries, and were of various ages and giftings. In spite of his age, He was simple and humble. He was easy to get along with, and very kind. He loved Jesus and was as excited about Him as anyone of us was who were much younger than he was. Like other workers of the ministry he was involved in deliverance ministrations. He often traveled with Dr. Ibeneme for outside ministrations. He also had a special love to minister the Holy Ghost baptism. He had great success in this area of ministry. I know it because I was a...

Faith's Place

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! God's face always shine with pleasure when He finds people who took Him at His Word - those who live by faith. Hebrews 11: 5-6 5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6 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. God is always excited when His people exercises faith in Him by taking Him at His Word. During Jesus earthly ministry, He displayed His joy each time He found such people: Luke 7: 7-9 7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. 8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ...
