The Importance of Faith

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! Jesus said to the fig tree, "No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it" (Mark 11:14). He was very definite with His words. He didn't even shout. He spoke as if He was holding conversation with the fig tree, and what He said came to pass.

In Mark 11: 23, Jesus said, "He shall have whatsoever he saith". Whatever you say with faith will come to pass.

A couple of years ago, a man with crippled legs, on a wheelchair, attended a healing meeting. He's been to several like that and recieved nothing. But on this occasion, the Spirit of God led the man of God to call him out, and instruct him to call his own crippled legs STRAIGHT! He hesitated untill the man of God began to bombard him with that instruction, 'CALL YOUR LEGS STRAIGHT! repeatedly. After a while, the man said, 'I CALL MY LEGS STRAIGHT!' and the power of God hit him and his leg became straight.

The Bible says about God, "(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were" (Romans 4:17). Question: Why would God call things that be not as though they were? Answer: so that they will become! Why do we make faith confessions? So that we would see the reality! This is not religious jargon. It is the truth and reality! God bless.

Confess that you're healed and you'll be healed! You do it because the Bible says you're healed! (1 Peter 2: 24). I'll show you how this works with the prayer of Faith in my next posting. God bless.

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. ...

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...
