Dynamic Scriptures 13

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! After Jesus taught His disciples what is known in Christians circles as the Lord's prayer, He said further, "But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses" (Matthew 6:15).

I have heard a lot of people said this, "When I get to Jesus, that's when I will settle with that man. But while I'm here, I will never forgive him. He's done me a very great evil."

They didn't realise that anyone that will not forgive other people's tresspasses will not reach heaven at all. So train yourself to lead a kind of life that's ready to forgive people's offences, even before they ask for your forgiveness.

Jesus said, "Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God" (Matthew 6: 7-8).

The ability to forgive is an attribute of the Christians' agape love - the God-kind of love which has been shed abroad in all believers' heart by the Holy Ghost which has been given to us (Romans 5: 5).

As a child of God, you can love like God does, and forgive like He does. As God would have it, it is when we walk in love that our faith will work. So every refusal to forgive people's sins will hinder your faith from working for you. Which also means that your important prayers will be hindered. So watch it. You can't afford to let your prayers go unanswered. You can't afford to miss heaven.

Let's love and forgive like our Father wanted us to so that all may be well with us.

Till next posting, God bless.

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...

Greetings

Hi there, friend! A happy new month to you. Usually, I greet my friends or acquaintances this way, "H.appy New Year" even if the last time I saw them was just a week ago. Just a funny greeting. The exciting ministry times still continues. I have just ended a whole month ministry time with the Believers' Fellowship in Ibadan here. So many people were blessed during the course of the meeting. I don't have pictures here because I misplaced my digi-cam. My Holy Ghost Miracle Service is now what we are preparing for between now and October. It's going to be a two-day event, three services - two evenings and one morning Life Seminar. We are preparing to use a church's venue here in Ibadan. I lost my mother-in-law just two days ago and she's going to be buried next week Saturday. Her own mum is still alive. She was a good mother to all her children, including me. So we plan to give her a beffiting funeral at Owo Town, Ondo State. A friend sent me an e-mail and I ...

The Holy Spirit Moves 6

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The faith realm is God's realm. It is Jesus realm, and it is the realm of the Holy Spirit. Even all believers in Jesus Christ belongs in that realm. If you are a born-again Christian, this is your realm. You're a creature of faith. 1 John 5: 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. I want you to understand that victory is always attached to faith. When you get into faith you have entered into the realm of victory in whatever area it is where you're standing on God's Word. The realm of faith is filled with unlimited possibilities. If you come to think of it, you will realize that every step into faith is a step into divine creativity. In April 1994, I went to the UCH to fellowship with the Praise Temple which was founded by a friend, Dr. Sola Fola-Alade. It was a church which consisted mainly of medical students. As result of this they have to set up new ...
