Dynamic Scriptures 4


By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom!

"And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof" (Genesis 2:19).

Did you see that? Or like Chief Zebrudaya of the Masquarade fame would say, 'Are you see what I am saw?' There was a depth of intimacy and trust that existed between God and Adam to the point that God brought the newly created animals to him to name. Adam gave all the animals and every other living creatures their names. Isn't this wonderful! It wasn't God Who gave all living creatures their names. He left that job to Adam.

The next time you see a dog, cockroach, an eagle, fish, a cat, an elephant or any other creature at all, remember that it was a man like you that gave that creature its name.

This is the kind of intimacy God desires to have with us His dear children. He is yearning to be so close to the point of mutual trust and fellowship. The Maker of heaven and earth, Owner of the Universe, your Father and close Friend.

When God met out His judgements upon Egypt, He used Moses to do it. At the words of Moses things happened - there were sparks of God's power flying from Moses.

God had a discussion with Abraham about Sodom and Gomorha before He sent His angels to destroy those cities. God knew that Abraham would intercede for them and He was prepared to be merciful, but the people were unrepentant, so God kicked their butts - destroyed them.

I learnt from the Word of God that God hates it whenever He had to judge. O how He hates it. But He loves it when WE his people live in such a way that all He wants to do is to bless US and give US all the good things WE DESIRE.

He is our loving Father and gracious God.

Till next posting, God bless YOU.

The Holy Spirit Moves 5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! One major lesson that I began to learn as a born-again Christian is the subject of faith, and I am still learning it after 24years. I found out that if a Christian is ignorant of this subject, he will lead a lopsided life. Things will be very difficult for him in this life. The Bible says, "The just shall live by his faith" (Habakuk 2: 4). God works with those who have learnt and are living and walking by faith. The Bible says, "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" (Hebrews 11: 6). So faith is a must for those that would walk with God. In Mark 11: 22-24, the Bible says, "And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 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 tho...

Your Exposure Matters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola What kind of knowledge have you been exposed to? What have you fed yourself with? What kind of knowledge have you recieved through your Pastor? Whether you realise it or not, you are influenced and your life is directed in the direction of the kind of mindset that you have, which is largely influenced by the kind of knowledge that you have. What you know and what you're ignorant of affect your life. The kind of Pastor you listen to, and the kind of church you attend affects you. The kind of books, tapes, videos and the kind of friends you keep affects your life. Make no mistake about it, you are what you eat. Jesus puts it this way, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh" (Luke 6:45). What you filled your heart with, comes out of your mouth and your life. Your...

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!...
