Lessons From The Books Of Chronicles 13

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! The Queen of Sheba visited with King Solomon, and after observing all that went on in his kingdom, among other things, she said, "Happy are thy men, and happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom" (2 Chronicles 9:7). These stood out to her in the midst of so much wealth.

We know a lot of stupendously rich people with a lot of disgruntled servants. What this mean is that these rich people do not care for those that are serving them. Sadly, these same things are seeing with some Christians, and even some men of God. They don't care for their staff members.

Recently, I visited with one of my partners and he told me what he saw at the Kenneth Copeland Ministries; staff members recieved first-class treatment from their boss and the ministry so much so a security guard said, 'No one wants to leave here.' I don't know any servant that would desire to leave a place where he's serving and is been treated like a king by his master in every good way.

While my friend was there for the annual conference, he noted that the place reserved for the use of the members of staff of KCM for meals had everything first class. This is the way it should be.

Jesus made all believers His joint-heirs, raised together with Him, and made to sit together with Him in heavenly places.

I know a family in Ibadan here. Untill I was told by a relation of theirs, I didn't know that the lady with a baby in their house was their housemaid. They eat together on their dining table. She was also sent to school by this family. May God bless them.

There must be a difference between the way a believer treats people and the way an unbeliever does it. Think about it.

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. ...
