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.

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...

The Holy Spirit Moves 4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The works of the Holy Spirit varies, no one knows it all. But it's so exciting when one finds out about them. I was part of the Faith Clinic team that travelled with Dr. I. K. U. Ibeneme to minister at a campmeeting, December 1985. It was a deliverance session with the church on the outskirt of Lagos State. Our method of ministry was to ask individuals what problem they have, and we minister accordingly. After I had prayed with several people, it came to the turn of a brother. I went thru the normal process of our ministration and he stuttered and said, 'I am a stammerer'. I was flabbergasted because at that moment I didn't know what to do. But I just said, 'In Jesus' name, I plead the blood. Be healed!' and I took off to another place. During the testimony time, the brother said in very clear words, 'You know me. . . ' and the place became wild with excitement and shouts of 'Hallelujah!' rended the air!...

Faith and the Will of God

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! Where exactly in the prayer of faith can we find the will of God? The will of God means what GOD expects, requires and demands, to be done by you. Paul said in his epistle to the Hebrew Christians, "... ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise" (Hebrews 10:36). It is after you've done the will of God that YOU will experience the fulfillment of the promise. The will of God for you when using Mark 11: 24 is that part where Jesus said, "... when ye pray, believe that you recieve them ..." . Once you miss this part, you would have wasted your time and prayer. The will of God in this verse deals with, 1. The time of your prayer WHEN YOU PRAY, and, 2. What you believe when YOU PRAY. The other important thing about your prayer life that goes with the matter of the will of God has to do with your life. You must be a person of godly character. You must fear God and treat other peo...
