The Holy Spirit #1


By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! There has been a lot of teachings about the Holy Spirit made over the years in order to bring the people of God into that place of intimacy with Him. The apostle Paul prayed that "... the communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all" (2 Corinthians 13: 14). In other words, he prayed for us to know the Holy Spirit as our Friend.

The name Comforter also mean Friend. God has sent the Holy Spirit here on earth into our lives to be our Friend.

Having the Holy Spirit in our lives as Friend is a great thing because He is God just like the Almighty Father.

Imagine you and God taking a walk together with, holding hands and chatting along as close friends. This is what God desires regarding all of us believers in Christ Jesus.

It could be a very exciting experience for each one of us if we really desire it.

The Holy Spirit has already been given to you since the day you accepted Jesus as your Saviour and Lord. It's now up to you to make a move towards real friendship with Him.

1. Accept the truth that He is already there in your life.

2. Start talking to Him, asking Him to do those things Jesus said He would do in your life eg, teaching, guiding, helping and showing you things to come; bringing things to your remembrance and standing by you at all times.

As God, He is able to do all things, and nothing is impossible with Him. He knows everything and can see everything. There no one on earth as powerful and great as He is. The Holy Spirit is God and I've seen His power.

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...

Your Exposure Matters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola What kind of knowledge have you been exposed to? What have you fed yourself with? What kind of knowledge have you recieved through your Pastor? Whether you realise it or not, you are influenced and your life is directed in the direction of the kind of mindset that you have, which is largely influenced by the kind of knowledge that you have. What you know and what you're ignorant of affect your life. The kind of Pastor you listen to, and the kind of church you attend affects you. The kind of books, tapes, videos and the kind of friends you keep affects your life. Make no mistake about it, you are what you eat. Jesus puts it this way, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh" (Luke 6:45). What you filled your heart with, comes out of your mouth and your life. Your...

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!...
