All Consuming Desire #6

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Jesus said, "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire,
when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them"
(Mark 11:24). And the apostle Paul said, "... God, who quickeneth the
dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were"
(Romans 4:17).

When you're taking the faith stand you behave like God and call things
which be not as though they were. A crippled person will call himself
healed. The same thing, a person with any other kind of disease. He
will say so because that's what he believes! The moment you ask God
for it, believe that He has done it for you - DONE! And that's what
you are to confess: God has done it and I have now (whatever it may
be). Praise God and thank Him.

Understand that faith and anxiety cannot co-exist, fear, unbelief and
faith cannot work together at all. Paul puts it this way, "Be careful
for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God" (Philippians
4:6). Be careful for nothing means, Do not worry or fret about
anything. This is divine order.

You must keep this in mind. Notice that Paul, by the Spirit of God,
said we're to make our requests known by prayer, supplication and
THANKSGIVING. He meant that if you're going to pray do away with
anxiety. The whole process of prayer till thanksgiving is a faith one.
You will thank God for the result before you will get to see it. It
means that God answers the prayer based on your act of faith, not just
because you pray, but because you prayed in faith: Believing that you
recieve the answer to your prayer the moment you pray with
thanksgiving.

For this person who prayed is not waiting for God to do something, but
by faith he considers the matter a done-deal! This is the faith that
brings result.

I will throw more light on this in the next post. 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 ...

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 ...
