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...

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 and the Will of God

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! Where exactly in the prayer of faith can we find the will of God? The will of God means what GOD expects, requires and demands, to be done by you. Paul said in his epistle to the Hebrew Christians, "... ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise" (Hebrews 10:36). It is after you've done the will of God that YOU will experience the fulfillment of the promise. The will of God for you when using Mark 11: 24 is that part where Jesus said, "... when ye pray, believe that you recieve them ..." . Once you miss this part, you would have wasted your time and prayer. The will of God in this verse deals with, 1. The time of your prayer WHEN YOU PRAY, and, 2. What you believe when YOU PRAY. The other important thing about your prayer life that goes with the matter of the will of God has to do with your life. You must be a person of godly character. You must fear God and treat other peo...
