.::Walking in the Spirit::.

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola

To walk in the Spirit is not really different from walking in the Word of God. Have you ever heard others or you too have actually said this, Do not spiritualize everything? In actual fact you would be wrong when you don't.

Walking in the Spirit involves allowing the fruit of the Spirit to blossom in your life with the following noticeable traits of godliness and Christlikeness:

Love (a strong positive emotion of regard and affection for God and for your fellowman),
Joy (emotion of great happiness, especially as a result of salvation through the grace of God in Christ Jesus), 
Peace (harmonious relations; freedom from disputes: having achieved peace with God; and ready to share it with your fellowmen), 
Longsuffering (patient: good natured-tolerance), 
Gentleness (acting in a manner that is gentle and mild and even-tempered),
Goodness (kindness: tendency to be kind and forgiving), 
Faith (faithfulness: constancy, dedication, loyalty, trueness),
Meekness (humility: a disposition to be humble), 
Temperance (self-control: the state of resolutely controlling your own behaviour): 

Which the Bible says, "... against such there is no law" (Galatians 5:22 - 5:23 KJV). A person with these traits will always be good to have around, pleasant to relate with. His presence will be enjoyed by people. It would be difficult to make an enemy out of him. If anyone who calls himself a born-again child of God lacks any of these traits, something is drastically wrong and needs a serious attention!

Let me leave you with this thought till my next posting: When you don't walk in the Spirit your prayers will not work at all. God bless.

Faith's Place

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! God's face always shine with pleasure when He finds people who took Him at His Word - those who live by faith. Hebrews 11: 5-6 5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 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. God is always excited when His people exercises faith in Him by taking Him at His Word. During Jesus earthly ministry, He displayed His joy each time He found such people: Luke 7: 7-9 7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. 8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ...

Time Element in Faith

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! There is an element of time involved in the principle of faith. Misunderstanding this important element will cause a failure of faith. The Bible says, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). When should one take the step of faith? (Now!) Paul said, "Now faith is . . . the evidence of things not seen". When you are standing by faith, what you're believing God for is neither seen nor felt. You're just standing in faith for it - calling those things which be not as though they were. If you've asked God for a car, by faith you say, 'I believe that I have my car now.' This is neither pretence nor a lie. You really must believe this way. You don't have to see it first or feel it before you believe it. In fact, we do not need to look for any sign or hear a voice to know our prayers are heard. Once we pray, God wants us to believe that the need is met NOW WHE...

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 ...
