No Limits (Part Two)

by Revd 'Remi Tejumola

Mark 11:22-24
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 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 those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

According to our Lord Jesus, the act and the expression of our faith is to be towards God Who is more than able to meet all of our needs and give us all that we desire to have. This Word that He spoke in our text was His response to the amazed statement made by Peter, 'The tree that You cursed yesterday has dried up from the roots!' Jesus response meant that, "I accomplished this simple feat just because I have faith in God, and you too can accomplish the same by having faith in God."

Here's what the Bible has to say about God's ability: "Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20). God made everything in existence by His power, so there's nothing that He cannot do for you. It should interest you to know that God is interested in meeting all your needs.

The Apostle Paul said, "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). God spoke through Prophet Jeremiah these words, "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" (Jeremiah 32:27).

Jesus told us, "Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?  (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things" (Matthew 6:31-32). Those who have doubted that God may not answer their prayers because they thought their prayers might not be according to His will really need to get deeper into His Word in order to clear their doubts. Jesus said, "for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things." God knows that you need these things!

What things? God knows that if you are homeless you need a home. If you do not have food, He knows you need it. He knows you need money; He knows you need healing when you're sick; He knows that you need children if you've been barren; He knows that you need a job if you have no job; He knows that you need rain on your farm if you have been experiencing drought. He knows that you need shoes and clothes. He knows that you need vehicles. He knows that a person with a broken legs needs prosthesis or a miraculous provision of new legs through the creative power of the Almighty God. HE KNOWS ALL THE NEEDS IN OUR LIVES AND HAS ADDRESSED THEM ALL IN CHRIST JESUS!

So, you can name what things soever ye desire! Paul said, "My God shall SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEED - not a few, not some - ALL YOUR NEED! I know of people - women who had problems with their wombs and God gave them brand new wombs to replace the bad ones because it is His will! Again let's hear God's question to Jeremiah, "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" (Jeremiah 32:27).

God knew that Adam needed a wife and provided him one - He gave Adam Eve! God went through a wonderful process to provide him the wife.

Jesus told us, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive" (Matthew 21:22). Do not follow the things people told you. Follow only what the Bible tells you and you will be able to receive from God whatever you want and need from Him. God does not depend on what you have in order to provide you with the things you need. He depends on His own power, He depends on His own riches in glory!

Till next posting remain blessed!

Re-visiting Faith #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! One can spend a whole lifetime studying the subject of faith and one will continue to learn so many sides that are involved therein. Let's look at our main text again: Hebrews 11: 6 6 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. Diligence is an attribute and attitude of faith. There is a kind of seriousness that is attached to the Bible kind of faith which is why God demands diligence in the seeker. The dictionary defines the word "diligence" as "careful and conscientious" and the word "careful" as "paying close attention". The word "conscientious" is defined "been diligent with one's work" . I don't think this can be overly emphasised since it is the very basis and fabric of our relationship with the Most High God. You can just imagine why this faith business ...

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...

All Consuming Desire #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour really gave us the definition of faith in Mark 11:23-24. He showed us exactly what we need to do. So everytime we take the faith stand, what we believe matters. We can't say after we've prayed the prayer of faith, "I am expecting such and such from God." To do that is to get out of faith which will abort our prayer. You must believe that you have recieved what you asked for in prayer WHEN YOU PRAY, and then it will manifest. But if you want to wait untill you see it manifest, you will never get to see it. This is where B.U.S.H. comes in. Believe you have recieved Untill Something Happens (untill it manifest). Once you believe you have recieved, stay put in that mode - regardless of how you feel or what you've not seen or felt. Just believe it's done for you already. That's what will cause the manifestation! Jesus said, "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, ...
