Lessons From The Book Of Chronicles 10

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! May God give us leaders that will execute judgement and justice. Did I hear you say, 'Amen!' I do hope you did.

One of the key factors that made Denmark the least corrupt nation in the world is because of the kind of people they've had as their leaders. It's not that they don't have corruption in their system, but compared with all other nations their level of corruption is the least. What caught my attention on this issue is what the Bible says about the second king of Israel, King David:

1 Chronicles 18: 14
14 So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

From both observation and experience, I've learnt that laws have to be enforced with true justice for us to have any kind of development in this corrupt and chaotic world. People shouldn't be without restraint. Imagine that, the least corrupt country in the world still have a bit of corruption in it. So what is corruption? The word corrupt means 'willing to act dishonestly in return for money, etc' ; 'evil and immoral'.

When a personal computer is said to have corrupted files, it means something bad has happened to the file or it is infected with a computer virus. So either delete the file or you get a powerful enough anti-virus software to clean it up. And may God help you if your anti-virus is also corrupted. If that be the case, you will have to format your PC. Which means all important files will be lost.

This is one of the reasons why things don't work out well in this world - corruption. Once there's an honest repentance from wrong doing by any corrupt leader, and he's still able to keep his office, he will begin to clean up his country's system right from the top and that nation will start enjoying real development.

May God give us real leaders who are righteous and are godly in every good sense of the word in Jesus name. Amen!

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...
