All Consuming Desire #9

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Take note of the following words, "What things soever", "All things",
"Whatsoever", "What you will", and "Everything". All of these words
came out of Jesus' mouth and they're all about us. Simply put, God
wants you to have whatever you want to have.

I learnt from God's Word that you can ask God for whatever good thing
you want from Him and get it. Some people, in their limited
understanding, said, "You can only get from God whatever He wants you
to have - not what you want!" Please note that the latter was an
addition: not what you want. God didn't say anything close to that.

It was added by those who said it in other to console themselves where
their needs went unmet.

God is glorified when He meets your needs and provides for you all the
good things you desire of Him.

A worship band was going to practice during a heavy downpour of rain
in their city. They prayed and trusted God to keep all their
equipments dry as they carried them in an open roof truck through the
city. Not a single drop of rain fell on the equipments! God kept His
end of the bargain as they trusted Him.

The rain began to fall long before they prayed. They moved into the
rain by faith and God honoured them. Faith works all the time and it's
not reasonable. Faith beats reason.

For as long as Peter kept away from reason or logic he walked on
water. But when logic got involved he began to sink while Jesus
remained standing on the same sea by faith. Faith and logic or reason
can't mix.

Remain blessed till next posting.

The Holy Spirit Moves 1

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Good day to you friend. Today, I want to share some of the things the Holy Spirit had done in my ministry in retrospect. This is meant to inspire you. God can use any believer in Christ to do these things and more. In fact Jesus puts it this way: John 14: 12-14 12 ¶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. Sometime, some people left the impression that the things that God used them to do is exclusive to them , but that is not really true. I know this is a strong statement, but it can never be stronger than what Jesus Christ, the Son of God, said above in John 14: 12. There is nothing that God had used someone else to do that He cannot use you to do - absolutely NOTHING! In fact, i...

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...

Your Exposure Matters

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola What kind of knowledge have you been exposed to? What have you fed yourself with? What kind of knowledge have you recieved through your Pastor? Whether you realise it or not, you are influenced and your life is directed in the direction of the kind of mindset that you have, which is largely influenced by the kind of knowledge that you have. What you know and what you're ignorant of affect your life. The kind of Pastor you listen to, and the kind of church you attend affects you. The kind of books, tapes, videos and the kind of friends you keep affects your life. Make no mistake about it, you are what you eat. Jesus puts it this way, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh" (Luke 6:45). What you filled your heart with, comes out of your mouth and your life. Your...
