Re-visiting Faith #7b

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! This was the curse that God placed on man:

Genesis 3: 17
17 ... cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life ...

The opposite of multiplication is division, the opposite of addition is subtraction, and the opposite of plus is minus. This may sound elementary to you, but you need to put it into consideration.

The curses God placed on the man and the woman were reversed in Christ Jesus. I think you ought to be rejoicing right now. The pain of the woman at childbirth was multiplied by the curse and redemption through Christ reversed it.

Genesis 3:18-19
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

These also are reversed by redemption through Christ. A born-again child of God is not under any of this curses anymore. But if he is ignorant of this reality, he will still suffer unnecessarily.

The curse pronounced here by God has nothing to do with weather, but it does indicate that man's labour will bring in less to harvest. It would be like using elephant power to work and harvesting just enough that can only feed a mouse.

That's the curse redemption has reversed for us men in Christ Jesus just like the women. It now depends on whether or not you believe this. The Bible says, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11: 1).

If you hope for this, faith will bring it to reality in your life.

Till next posting, God bless.

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...

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Good day to you friend. Today, I want to share some of the things the Holy Spirit had done in my ministry in retrospect. This is meant to inspire you. God can use any believer in Christ to do these things and more. In fact Jesus puts it this way: John 14: 12-14 12 ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. Sometime, some people left the impression that the things that God used them to do is exclusive to them , but that is not really true. I know this is a strong statement, but it can never be stronger than what Jesus Christ, the Son of God, said above in John 14: 12. There is nothing that God had used someone else to do that He cannot use you to do - absolutely NOTHING! In fact, i...

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! Great day to you friend. I hope you are gaining from this on going sharing about the work of the Holy Spirit in my ministry over the years. In a few weeks' time my book Understanding Opportunity will be out. The structure has been in place for a few years. I will now fill it up for publication. Look out for it. It's gonna add to you. The Bible says, "For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost" (Romans 14: 17). Over the years in my meetings people have encountered Holy Spirit joy, and have broken out laughing and dancing! It's been quite a refreshing thing for everyone. But really people have encountered a lot more than those aforementioned. In my first meeting with the CCIC D-Line Centre , among other things that the Holy Spirit did, His power came upon a dear sister, and she struggled to get into her car after the service, trying to go home, but couldn't move it fo...
