The Act of Faith 3

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom!

". . . faith without works is dead" (James 2:20).

For any faith adventurer, the above truth must always be remembered. For faith to be what it is, there must be a corresponding act. Faith in your heart without a corresponding physical action and confession of faith, there would be no positive result. It doesn't really matter how bad you wanted it. God wants you to trust Him to come through for you. He has never disappointed anyone. That's a great track record.

When you prayed for what you desire to have, Jesus says, ". . . believe that you recieve them, and you SHALL HAVE THEM. Believing that you recieve them comes before physical HAVING THEM.

When you prayed the prayer of faith, it means that you believe you recieved what you asked for WHEN YOU PRAYED.

You prayed to be healed and you believe that you're healed before the actual healing took place. Take note of this: IT IS WHEN YOU TAKE A STAND LIKE THIS THAT WILL ENSURE THAT IT MANIFEST PHYSICALLY IN YOUR BODY. This is how the principle of faith works in every area and realm of life.

If Peter had waited to see an invisible bridge to appear on the water he would never have walked on the water, even with Jesus present there. You really need to seek to understand this. All that God wants you to do when YOU pray for a desired thing is for you to believe you recieved it when YOU PRAYED for IT. That's all. See you at next posting. God bless.

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...

Dynamic Scriptures 10

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! What you believe when you pray and afterwards matter. What you believe determines whether or not you ever get hold of what you desired of God. Whenever you pray and ask God for anything, God wants you to believe that you have recieved whatever it is you asked for. If you asked God for a cat, believe you have recieved the cat and you will get it. Notice He didn't say you should believe that God is going to bring it, but that you have received it, and you have it now by faith. This is when results come. But if after praying, and you didn't see any difference, you then say, 'I don't think my prayer is answered' , you have just aborted your own prayer. As soon as Jesus cursed the fig tree, He turned around and went His own way. He didn't bother to wait and see whether any change has occurred, "And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it" (Mark 11:14). You c...

Whatever Happened To Personal Evangelism

Dear Friend, Good day to you. I wish to pass on to you today a message I have had in my inbox for almost 3years now as a kind of reminder to our purpose as the body of Christ. It is an article by Lee Grady, the editor of Charisma Magazine . Please read. God bless. -Revd 'Remi Tejumola   Whatever Happened to Personal Evangelism? We are not anointed by the Holy Spirit simply to have visions or feel spiritual goose bumps. It's time for us to re-embrace soul-winning.   My heart sank two weeks ago when I heard that Dr. D. James Kennedy had died at age 76 of complications from an earlier heart attack. Knowing that Jerry Falwell died in May, and considering that Billy Graham is not in good health, I wondered who could possibly replace these stalwart Christian statesmen.   The congenial Kennedy, who usually wore an austere clerical robe when he preached on his popular television broadcast, founded Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale 48 years ago. Yet ...
