No Promise, No Faith

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

The Word God spoke is the only thing that He is responsible to confirm. He will not and cannot be held responsible for what He has not spoken or promised anyone.

Faith can only be based on a given promise. It is when you believe and act according to the requirements of that promise that you are actually in faith, which then will bring the expected results into manifestation. With this in mind, you will realise that, 'No promise, no faith'. There are no 'ifs' or 'buts' about this.

Many times when people claim to have faith, it is not based on the Word of God. It's usually based on nothingness, hope and assumptions. They just have 'faith'. Nothing but frustration will result from this kind of faith.

The Bible says, "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17). God must have promised you something before you can exercise faith in Him. You must have utterlly believed what He said in His Word for Him to be obligated to perform it.

The woman who had the issue of blood for 12yrs heard about Jesus, and she believed all that she heard about Him. What she heard became the basis of her faith and also produced the faith she had which lead to her miraculous healing as she touched His garment (Mark 5:25-34).

I learnt that there are at least 3,000 promises that God made in the Bible, and they are ours. If you have up to 3,000 problems, you're home free. But I don't think you have up to as many as that. But know that God cares.

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...

Greetings

Hi there, friend! A happy new month to you. Usually, I greet my friends or acquaintances this way, "H.appy New Year" even if the last time I saw them was just a week ago. Just a funny greeting. The exciting ministry times still continues. I have just ended a whole month ministry time with the Believers' Fellowship in Ibadan here. So many people were blessed during the course of the meeting. I don't have pictures here because I misplaced my digi-cam. My Holy Ghost Miracle Service is now what we are preparing for between now and October. It's going to be a two-day event, three services - two evenings and one morning Life Seminar. We are preparing to use a church's venue here in Ibadan. I lost my mother-in-law just two days ago and she's going to be buried next week Saturday. Her own mum is still alive. She was a good mother to all her children, including me. So we plan to give her a beffiting funeral at Owo Town, Ondo State. A friend sent me an e-mail and I ...

The Holy Spirit Moves 6

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The faith realm is God's realm. It is Jesus realm, and it is the realm of the Holy Spirit. Even all believers in Jesus Christ belongs in that realm. If you are a born-again Christian, this is your realm. You're a creature of faith. 1 John 5: 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. I want you to understand that victory is always attached to faith. When you get into faith you have entered into the realm of victory in whatever area it is where you're standing on God's Word. The realm of faith is filled with unlimited possibilities. If you come to think of it, you will realize that every step into faith is a step into divine creativity. In April 1994, I went to the UCH to fellowship with the Praise Temple which was founded by a friend, Dr. Sola Fola-Alade. It was a church which consisted mainly of medical students. As result of this they have to set up new ...
