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...

Dynamic Scriptures 10

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! What you believe when you pray and afterwards matter. What you believe determines whether or not you ever get hold of what you desired of God. Whenever you pray and ask God for anything, God wants you to believe that you have recieved whatever it is you asked for. If you asked God for a cat, believe you have recieved the cat and you will get it. Notice He didn't say you should believe that God is going to bring it, but that you have received it, and you have it now by faith. This is when results come. But if after praying, and you didn't see any difference, you then say, 'I don't think my prayer is answered' , you have just aborted your own prayer. As soon as Jesus cursed the fig tree, He turned around and went His own way. He didn't bother to wait and see whether any change has occurred, "And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it" (Mark 11:14). You c...

Whatever Happened To Personal Evangelism

Dear Friend, Good day to you. I wish to pass on to you today a message I have had in my inbox for almost 3years now as a kind of reminder to our purpose as the body of Christ. It is an article by Lee Grady, the editor of Charisma Magazine . Please read. God bless. -Revd 'Remi Tejumola   Whatever Happened to Personal Evangelism? We are not anointed by the Holy Spirit simply to have visions or feel spiritual goose bumps. It's time for us to re-embrace soul-winning.   My heart sank two weeks ago when I heard that Dr. D. James Kennedy had died at age 76 of complications from an earlier heart attack. Knowing that Jerry Falwell died in May, and considering that Billy Graham is not in good health, I wondered who could possibly replace these stalwart Christian statesmen.   The congenial Kennedy, who usually wore an austere clerical robe when he preached on his popular television broadcast, founded Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale 48 years ago. Yet ...
