The Believers' Authority 6

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! Boldness to act is an important ingredient of the exercise of spiritual authority. Without boldness, having authority will just be like someone with a chieftancy title or an honorary degree. It will be of no use having it. It is no more than a decoration.

To be bold mean, to be courageous and brave. You have to have an attitude of daring to do things - you have to be adventurous, like Peter when he walked on water with Jesus, and also when he got that cripple healed at the beautiful gate. Later Peter dared to raise the dead and he did (Acts 9: 36-42). Boldness to do what you know the Word of God asked you to do - boldness to act on your faith. That's what I'm talking about. Without it, you will not get anywhere spiritually. But, thank God, you can ask Him to give you boldness and He will give it to you.

Read this verse and see what God said to us:

Ephesians 3: 20
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

God wants us to have daring thoughts, and to dare to ask Him for things. The Bible says He is able to do more than those things we think of and ask for. Get this: nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Now I will show you how to use this your God-given authority where your health is concerned - to be concluded in the next posting.

Mark 11: 23
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

You need to study and understand this verse. It shows us how to operate by faith. Most of the things in the kingdom of God only work by faith, you need to understand this. There is more to prayer than just praying and speaking words. You have to pray by faith for your prayers to really work.

I am going to be very specific in my next posting. Please, ensure that you come back to visit this site, in your best interest. God bless.

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. ...
