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.

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 ...

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...

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, ...
