The Blood of Jesus

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

The precious blood of Jesus, which He shed on the cross at Calvary, got us redemption from sin and its consequences. I'm talking about the blood of the Son of the Almighty God.

The blood of animals were acceptable for the atonement of men's sins under the Old Covenant, at least once a year. It was part of the statutes of the Law then.

Leviticus 17: 11
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood . . . for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

Under the Old Covenant the blood of animals cover men's sins for a year. Under the New Covenant, the blood of the Son of God remit our sins - blotted them out of existence. Nothing else can do that.

It may seem as if forgiveness of sins just require repentance from sin. If it were so Jesus blood would not need to be shed. But it's not cheap at all. The blood of the Son of God had to be shed to have it. It was by the blood of Jesus that satan was defeated. That's why he cannot stand the sight of His blood.

Today, in Jesus name, I plead the blood of the Son of God, Jesus Christ over you and all that concerns you. I pray that you will recieve the full benefits that is in His blood, all round.

1 Peter 1: 18-19
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.

Blood of animals are corruptible, but Jesus blood is incorruptible. There is no other kind of sacrifice of blood valid before God since Jesus blood was shed. Today, the blood of animals and human blood are unacceptable before God as a means of appeasement. All that God requires of anyone who wants to make peace with Him is confession of sin, repentance from the same and confessing Jesus as Lord, believing that He suffered, died for their sins and He was raised from the dead for their sake: "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed" (Romans 10: 8-11). All that God requires is the blood of Jesus. It is enough for you. God bless.

The Holy Spirit Moves 4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The works of the Holy Spirit varies, no one knows it all. But it's so exciting when one finds out about them. I was part of the Faith Clinic team that travelled with Dr. I. K. U. Ibeneme to minister at a campmeeting, December 1985. It was a deliverance session with the church on the outskirt of Lagos State. Our method of ministry was to ask individuals what problem they have, and we minister accordingly. After I had prayed with several people, it came to the turn of a brother. I went thru the normal process of our ministration and he stuttered and said, 'I am a stammerer'. I was flabbergasted because at that moment I didn't know what to do. But I just said, 'In Jesus' name, I plead the blood. Be healed!' and I took off to another place. During the testimony time, the brother said in very clear words, 'You know me. . . ' and the place became wild with excitement and shouts of 'Hallelujah!' rended the air!...

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. ...

Greetings

Hi there, friend! A happy new month to you. Usually, I greet my friends or acquaintances this way, "H.appy New Year" even if the last time I saw them was just a week ago. Just a funny greeting. The exciting ministry times still continues. I have just ended a whole month ministry time with the Believers' Fellowship in Ibadan here. So many people were blessed during the course of the meeting. I don't have pictures here because I misplaced my digi-cam. My Holy Ghost Miracle Service is now what we are preparing for between now and October. It's going to be a two-day event, three services - two evenings and one morning Life Seminar. We are preparing to use a church's venue here in Ibadan. I lost my mother-in-law just two days ago and she's going to be buried next week Saturday. Her own mum is still alive. She was a good mother to all her children, including me. So we plan to give her a beffiting funeral at Owo Town, Ondo State. A friend sent me an e-mail and I ...
