Jesus Christ's Identification #2

by Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Mark 6:53-56
53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
54 And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,
55 And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
56 And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.

I found this passage strikingly interesting. In fact, my imagination ran wild when I realized what really happened here. Jesus' picture here is very clear, even though it was just an aspect of His life and ministry, and this also is a revelation of the will of God - what He is ready to do for all people who are in need.

Jesus got into Gennesaret with all of His disciples. The moment they recognized Him, they ran home! In other places, people would run towards Him, not away from Him. (But why did they run back home?) They had sick folks they've been taking care of at home, and like the woman with the issue of blood, they spent untold amounts of money and time on them without anything to show for it. But now, THE MIRACLE WORKER, THE MESSIAH IS HERE! Thank God, HE IS! The Bible says, "...as many as touched him were made whole (verse 56). Everyone that is sick and touched His garment got healed of their maladies, glory be to God!

Notice that there's no record here of His preaching or teaching, but He could have done it. But the great thing here is that the people got healed, all that went to touch Him. I don't know any other kind of Jesus. This One saves, heals and delivers people, and He is still doing such businesses today.

Jesus never turned anyone away from Him, complaining, "Why are you looking for miracles? I don't have any for you. Go and study the word and clean your life up! God is teaching you lessons through your illnesses. Stop looking for miracles. God has none for you, live with your problems!" No, He didn't! He healed their sick! The Bible says, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever" (Hebrews 11:8). There is healing for you today!

Be healed now in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God! Today is your day for a change and healing! Receive it now in His holy name. Amen!

Till next posting, stay blessed!

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...

The Holy Spirit Moves 8

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! Great day to you friend. I hope you are gaining from this on going sharing about the work of the Holy Spirit in my ministry over the years. In a few weeks' time my book Understanding Opportunity will be out. The structure has been in place for a few years. I will now fill it up for publication. Look out for it. It's gonna add to you. The Bible says, "For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost" (Romans 14: 17). Over the years in my meetings people have encountered Holy Spirit joy, and have broken out laughing and dancing! It's been quite a refreshing thing for everyone. But really people have encountered a lot more than those aforementioned. In my first meeting with the CCIC D-Line Centre , among other things that the Holy Spirit did, His power came upon a dear sister, and she struggled to get into her car after the service, trying to go home, but couldn't move it fo...
