Close to Glory 2010 (Ministry Update)

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! The theme of my ministry for 2010 is Close to Glory! Of course, we will be close to glory because for one thing Jesus may come back for us next year, if by the end of this year He hasn't come. This does not mean that I am predicting that Jesus will come next year. No, I just want us to be conscious of the fact that He will appear without a particular prior notice.

On the other hand we are going to see greater manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit in our meetings. The Bible says, "The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts" (Haggai 2: 9). In a normal course of things, the scale of the manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit should be increasing on a daily basis untill the very last day. But due to human nature and decisions, the scale has been going up and down since inception, and that's changing!

Our programmes will be a lot more impact-full. You don't want to miss such meetings for anything whatsoever. The Word of the Lord, as usual will be direct. The gifts of the Spirit will be more in manifestation too. The anointing, oh mine, will be a lot more profound also.

The reason for this? We're digging deeper than we ever did before into God's spiritual things - His Word and prayer. His Word to saturate us, prayer to get us more immersed into the things of the Holy Spirit, and separation more into the things of God other than the things of this world. (Not getting too entangled with worldly affairs), yet keeping the faith and responsibility to the people who are important to us by not neglecting them.

Are you with me there?

Let's prepare to meet the Lord so that when He comes we will be found truly waiting for Him the way He expects.

Heaven and hell are real places. The coming of Jesus will finalise a lot of things. Whatever decision you need to make before He comes will become an established one, because one way or the other, your indecision will turn out to be your decision. Make sure that your portion in the affair will be good. The Apostle John puts it this way, "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope purifies himself, even as He is pure" (1 John 3: 2-3).

Let's do just that, ok?

Till 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...

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...

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. ...
