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.

The Holy Spirit Moves 1

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Good day to you friend. Today, I want to share some of the things the Holy Spirit had done in my ministry in retrospect. This is meant to inspire you. God can use any believer in Christ to do these things and more. In fact Jesus puts it this way: John 14: 12-14 12 ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. Sometime, some people left the impression that the things that God used them to do is exclusive to them , but that is not really true. I know this is a strong statement, but it can never be stronger than what Jesus Christ, the Son of God, said above in John 14: 12. There is nothing that God had used someone else to do that He cannot use you to do - absolutely NOTHING! In fact, i...

The Holy Spirit Moves 5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! One major lesson that I began to learn as a born-again Christian is the subject of faith, and I am still learning it after 24years. I found out that if a Christian is ignorant of this subject, he will lead a lopsided life. Things will be very difficult for him in this life. The Bible says, "The just shall live by his faith" (Habakuk 2: 4). God works with those who have learnt and are living and walking by faith. The Bible says, "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" (Hebrews 11: 6). So faith is a must for those that would walk with God. In Mark 11: 22-24, the Bible says, "And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 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 tho...

Your Exposure Matters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola What kind of knowledge have you been exposed to? What have you fed yourself with? What kind of knowledge have you recieved through your Pastor? Whether you realise it or not, you are influenced and your life is directed in the direction of the kind of mindset that you have, which is largely influenced by the kind of knowledge that you have. What you know and what you're ignorant of affect your life. The kind of Pastor you listen to, and the kind of church you attend affects you. The kind of books, tapes, videos and the kind of friends you keep affects your life. Make no mistake about it, you are what you eat. Jesus puts it this way, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh" (Luke 6:45). What you filled your heart with, comes out of your mouth and your life. Your...
