The Believers' Authority 7

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! You need to understand this: Faith is the mode of operation in the Kingdom of God.

If you have anything wrong with your body, you must learn how to use your authority by faith so that you can be healed.

Some people outrightly don't believe in this act of God for various reasons, one of which is that there are people they know who have tried using faith when they had physical challenges and ended up dying because somehow their faith failed them or they know people who have tried to believe God for things, telling others regarding what they were attempting to do by faith and still didn't recieve anything. I know that people have experienced these things.

I also know about those who prayed for things and got them. I am one of them. I know from experience that you can mis-apply the Word of God in such a way that it won't work for you. If you make a mistake in applying God's Word, it won't work. This is the reason why you must look over God's Word one by one. You must pay a close attention to it (Proverbs 4: 20-22).

Understand this: the name of Jesus Christ will only work where His person would work. Where His Person won't work, His name will not. When you use His name in faith, it will bring the desired result to you, everytime! (You need to think about this). Jesus said, "If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you" (John 15: 7). Let's look at the price Jesus paid for your healing from the book of Isaiah:

Isaiah 53: 4-5

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

The above Bible verses shows us the things Jesus did in order for us to have all the things I have been talking about, especially divine healing. Instead of people to find out how they can be healed today, since God healed in the past, they are busy trying to prove He doesn't heal anymore. I don't think anybody could be more foolish than doing that. If God answered someone's prayer last week, I would want to find out how mine will be answered today.

The Bible says about Jesus, "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him" (Acts 10: 38). Here, the Bible called sickness Devil's oppression, and Jesus healed people from it then, and He is still healing today. For the Bible says, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever" (Hebrews 13: 8). This means that if He healed yesterday, He will still heal today and tomorrow.

Having said that, anytime you feel something is wrong with any part of your physical body, before you run to the hospital, lay your hand on that part of your body, and say, "In the name of Jesus, I command my body to be healed of whatever is wrong with it, right now!" When you do it this way, Jesus has promised that He will get to do exactly what you asked to be done: "If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it" (John 14: 14). Sickness and disease are parts of the power of the devil which you have been given power over as a child of God (read Luke 10: 19).

The moment you command like that, you must believe that it is done, for Jesus said, "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" (Mark 11: 24). Please, take time to meditate on this verse before and after you must have exercised your God-given authority. Till next time, 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 ...
