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.

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...
