God's Will 606 #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread" (Matthew 6:10-11).

Question: Why would we need to pray that the will of God be done in earth as it's done in heaven?

Answer: Most people here are not concerned about the will of God at all. A lot of people, including many believers, are only interested in what they want. For this reason we are not seeing the blessings of God on our lives as much as God desires that we should have them.

Jesus also taught us to pray for daily provision of bread. If bread or food is readily and regularly available we would not need to pray for it. Also, God is willing to provide us with the things He's asked us to pray for.

One important truth is that if we don't ask for these things, we will have to do without them. But if we really need them, we'd better start praying for them.

Why do we need to seek God's face? To find and discover His will for our lives. You see, for an example, you can marry whoever you want, but if you really want His best for your life, you will have to seek His perfect will in this matter.

It is like precious stones. If you want the one of the greatest value and worth to you, you will have to dig for it with all carefulness. It is a lot more than a game of dice.

That's the way the issues of your life are. You have to carefully seek God's face in order to do His will.

Because a lot of brothers and sisters' are not in submission to Jesus they refuse to check if the leading the brother claimed to have recieved from God was true.

Be willing to accept and do the will of God Almighty. Till next posting. God bless.

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'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. ...

Hope, And Then Have Faith in God!

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! There is a clear difference between hope and faith. Hope cannot achieve anything without faith, and faith has nothing to recieve without hope. Hope expects and faith recieves. One of hope's definition is 'eager yearning'. Hope dreams and will keep you smiling, but achieve nothing more than that. Hope is a picture of the things you want to have. Faith, on the other hand, does not expect anything. It is a reciever. Faith takes the unrealities of hope and brings them into the realm of reality. "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11: 1). It's just as if hope has been there waiting and achieving nothing untill faith arrived and grabbed hope and bring into reality what hope dreamt about. Now listen up, faith doesn't just come. Faith is produced through the knowledge of the Word of God that you've repeatedly heard (Romans 10: 17). Many times you don't have to hear God...
