The Healing Presence #4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Taking a close look at our main text in this series of lessons, as I said in one of the lessons, there's a lot of things to share about the Holy Spirit in it. The Bible says, "But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you" (Romans 8:11). I want to open up your mind to an important and startling realisation, and that is: the Holy Spirit can accomplish a lot of astonishing things in your life. The Holy Spirit's power is flowing thru your body, and it can accomplish a lot of things. For instance, see what He did with Evangelist Phillip in the desert, "And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing" (Acts 8:39). The Holy Spirit made him to dematerialise in the desert (right before the Ethiop...

The Healing Presence #3

Revd 'Remi Tejumola Romans 8:11 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. There are a lot of truths embedded in this one verse, and I am not about to unveil all of them in this series of lessons. Just have this Word in mind, from the lips of Jesus, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32). The condition in our main text (Romans 8:11) is predicated upon the dwelling presence of the Holy Spirit in the born-again Christian's life. In some measure, the power of the indwelling Spirit is pulsating thru the veins of every child of God, whether or not he realises it. God, our Father, by the Holy Spirit, is quickening or injecting life into our physical body. We need to be aware of this. In 1979, at a Kenneth Copeland's meeting, as Dr. Kenneth E. Hagin was preaching, his photographer took a...

The Healing Presence #2

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! The Bible, in this verse of scripture, talks about the heavenly Father, the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit in definite terms. See, "But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you" (Romans 8:11). It was the Father who sent the Holy Spirit to raise Jesus back from the dead. The Father is the same One who will quicken your mortal body through the Spirit if He is dwelling in you. Please do recognise this important truth. The Almighty Father cares for you and He desires that every single thing be alright in your life - everything. He initiated the resurrection of Jesus and it's also His responsibility to initiate the healing of your body. The Father gives the go-ahead, the Holy Spirit energize your body and make it full of life. The only condition that must be fulfilled is if the Holy Spirit is living in ...

The Healing Presence #1

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! There is a healing provision that God has made available for the individual believer in Christ to be healed. Yes, primarily, Jesus provided healing for every sickness and disease through the stripes on His back. This healing is also exceptionally made available through the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. The Bible puts it this way: Romans 8:11 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. The Bible says here that if the Holy Spirit is in you, the Father God will quicken or make full of life your physical body. The only condition is if He is in there, in you. Some people have another spirit in them other than the One who raised Jesus from the dead. But if you have the real One, healing is available for your physical body. It is the will of God for your body to be healed through the Holy Spirit who live...

The Prayer of Faith #6

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola The Bible says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" (Proverbs 18:21). Notice that the Bible didn't say death and life are in the tongue of the prophet or the witch-doctor or God. No, it didn't say so. Simply put, death and life are in YOUR MOUTH. Everytime you open your mouth to talk, you are either speaking life or death into your own life and circumstance. In the same vein, whatever you say, from the time you pray, affects your prayer. It either infuse life into it and cause it to come into manifestation or suck life out of it. Faith is a lifestyle, not just something for prayer time. You have to call things that be not as though they were, in faith, in order for them to become the things you really desire to have. Please go over this scripture once again: "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall hav...

The Prayer of Faith #5

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Shalom! 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). This Word can be easily understood because it's not complicated at all, just simple. In attempting to act on this Word, people have asked, When I am standing in faith, how long do I have to wait for what I asked for? Good question. A lot depends on how much faith you really have in God. You see, if you have an iota of doubt, it will hinder you from receiving anything from God. Can you trust God to carry out His own end of the deal after you've done yours? Yours is to believe you receive exactly what you asked for, His is to make it happen because you believe. Now here is an aspect you must be careful about. The Bible says, "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I ...

The Prayer of Faith #4

By Revd 'Remi Tejumola Again Jesus said, "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever you desire, when ye pray, believe ye recieve them, and ye shall have them" (Mark 11:24). There has been a kind of teaching and preaching in a lot of churches, with many people loving it. It's called OPERATION P.U.S.H. meaning, Pray Untill Something Happen. It has never appealed to me. Some Bible translations added to the problem when they interpreted Matthew 7:7 as saying, "Ask and keep on asking." Jesus will never contradict Himself. The Word of God never contradicts itself. Rather you should compare scriptures with scriptures. Read here about what Jesus said about prayer, "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking" (Matthew 6:7). The length of your prayers does not determine the answer. If you're going to ask continually it's not going to be for the same thing. Each ...
