All Consuming Desire #4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Shalom! A desire is a strong wish to do or to have something, the Collins Dictionary defines. A desire is a strong wish to have something. This is very much the definition I want to talk about.

A lot of believers, in an attempt to recieve things from God usually give up the moment it seems to them God has not answered. They may end up saying, Delay is not denial or, God will do it in His time.

First, God never delays answer to prayers from His people. Secondly, God always give prompt attention to our prayers the MOMENT WE PRAY! And He answers immediately. But for things that we asked for to manifest, we must believe that we recieve WHEN WE PRAY!

The question is, Since you have expressed your desire in prayer, is that desire the kind that is ready to take 'No' for an answer? If this is your attitude you will never get any of your prayers answered. You're not ready to recieve by faith. What you recieve by faith is what you will get to see in this life.

Faith always will achieve its objectives - since it is based on the Word of God. Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith.

It is the preaching of God's Word that will produce faith in anyone who heard it. But we must follow thru with our faith to enjoy the promise.

This now brings us to a crucial point. There are certain things that we don't really need to pray for. All we need to do is to accept them by faith in order to enjoy them.

For instance, you're already healed, and delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of His dear Son, Jesus. At least that's what the Bible teaches and what you should believe.

In the next post I will bring this teaching to a close. Till then, God bless.

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...

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...

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 ...
