Lessons From the Book of Chronicles 1

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! For years I have thought of making use of some of the lessons from the book of Chronicles to teach whosoever is interested. Here it is: "And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper" (2 Chronicles 26:5). The last two phrases is my text, '... as long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper'.

Do you want to prosper? Are you interested in doing well in life? If you are interested, do you know what is meant by seeking the Lord? Don't worry I'll spell it out for you now.

1. Seeking the Lord means praying and spending time in God's presence in order to know Him.

2. Spending time in God's Word in order to know His will about everything you want to do.

3. It also mean that you don't take God for granted, but you seek God's face regarding every issue of your life in order for Him to give you direction.

4. Seeking Him also mean that it's only Him that you worship, and no other God. You only bow to Him, the Most High God. The apostle Paul puts it this way, "... he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him" (Hebrews 11:6).

Those who gets involved in such things as listed above will prosper. Read the following Bible passages: Matthew 6: 33; Psalm 1: 1-6; Joshua 1: 8; Proverbs 4: 20-22; Matthew 4: 4 & John 15: 1-7.

As long as YOU seek the Lord, He will cause you to prosper. You will prosper during the time you spent seeking the LORD.

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...

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...
