The Process of Divine Change #2

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! Let's take a look at several key words from our two main texts: Matthew 6:33 and Romans 12:1-2, 'righteousness', 'transformation' and 'renewal'.

In my last posting from the Amplified Bible, the Word 'righteousness' meant 'its way of doing' which means the principles by which the kingdom of God is ran. This shows there are certain ways the kingdom of God operates.

Jesus taught us to seek two things, the kingdom and the way things work. These two things are supposed to be our first priority. Seeking the kingdom is as important as seeking to know how things work there.

One of the requirements for becoming a US citizen is for the immigrant to get familiar with the constitution of that country. They don't want you running foul of their laws.

In the kingdom of God, as a citizen, it is required that you go through a process of transformation by the renewal of your mind before you can ascertain and prove what is the will of God in your life. This is the number one reason why you need to read through the whole Bible. You need to study and meditate on the Word day and night.

More so, there are ministers of God whom He has revealed certain principles of His kingdom to, from whom you need to learn and use in your life. Take for an example: God raised a person like Kenneth E. Hagin to teach us His people about faith. He raised Lester Sumrall to teach us about deliverance and demonology. He raised John Avanzini to teach us prosperity, and me to teach the body of Christ about the Holy Spirit. Basically, I'm one of those you need to listen to in order to get going in the kingdom of God.

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...
