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...

Re-visiting Faith #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! One can spend a whole lifetime studying the subject of faith and one will continue to learn so many sides that are involved therein. Let's look at our main text again: Hebrews 11: 6 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. Diligence is an attribute and attitude of faith. There is a kind of seriousness that is attached to the Bible kind of faith which is why God demands diligence in the seeker. The dictionary defines the word "diligence" as "careful and conscientious" and the word "careful" as "paying close attention". The word "conscientious" is defined "been diligent with one's work" . I don't think this can be overly emphasised since it is the very basis and fabric of our relationship with the Most High God. You can just imagine why this faith business ...

All Consuming Desire #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour really gave us the definition of faith in Mark 11:23-24. He showed us exactly what we need to do. So everytime we take the faith stand, what we believe matters. We can't say after we've prayed the prayer of faith, "I am expecting such and such from God." To do that is to get out of faith which will abort our prayer. You must believe that you have recieved what you asked for in prayer WHEN YOU PRAY, and then it will manifest. But if you want to wait untill you see it manifest, you will never get to see it. This is where B.U.S.H. comes in. Believe you have recieved Untill Something Happens (untill it manifest). Once you believe you have recieved, stay put in that mode - regardless of how you feel or what you've not seen or felt. Just believe it's done for you already. That's what will cause the manifestation! Jesus said, "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, ...
