*DAILY DEW 23RD/JUNE/2021* *YOU HOLD THE KEY- STIR IT UP* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou STIR UP THE GIFT OF GOD, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."* (2 Timothy 1:6-7 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ I made a cup of tea with some honey added to it. When I tasted it, I couldn't realize or relish the taste of the things added to the tea. Then, I had to stir the tea for a while. Thereafter, the glory of the taste of the tea became apparent. In that moment, the above scripture pulled out from a corner of my spirit. The meaning of the scripture became crystal clear. Until you stir up the gifts of God in your life, you will never taste the glory of the power of God. Until you stir up the grace that God had imputed in your life and calling, you will remain small and uneventful. Your life will be tasteless as far as your spiritual growth and greatness is concerned if you don't stir up the gifts of God in your life. Stir up the gift of God in your life. The moment you were born again, God implanted certain gifts into your life with or without laying of hands. Some persons, have more gifting than others. However having the gift is not as important as stirring up the gift. A lot of believers achieve far below their God given capacity because they fail to stir up. You stir up the gifts of God, by "shaking" yourself. To shake yourself is to apply yourself. You apply yourself to spiritual disciplines and practices as a matter of habit. When you don't habitually exercise your gifts, you will never maximize nor realize their purposes. Remember the servant with the one talent who buried it and never used it. He paid dearly for his negligence and laziness at the end. *MEDITATION:* *Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began* (2 Timothy 1:8-9 (KJV)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Wednesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Generational_Impact* *#GuestMessage* *#Hello_June* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/06/you-hold-key-stir-it-up.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 22ND/JUNE/2021* *TIMES, TRENDS & FAITH* _Key Bible Text:_ *"And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?"* (Luke 18:7-8 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ One reason why it seems that majority of Christians on social media by virtue of what they believe, are unserious is that many many serious, stable and balanced believers are NOT on social media. They simply don't have the time or tendency or interest to facebook or tweet or gram etc regularly. I know there are some of you who will read the above and think - Why don't they??? That's what we are talking about!!! Believers need to take over territories!! Any believer who is not on social media is unserious!!! Then they have no right to complain about the wrong influence of the media on......" You'd better not even go there. Some of you who say these things cannot remember the last time you read your Bible or had daily fellowship with God everyday for one week. You don't even know Philemon is a book in the Bible. You cannot remember the last time you heard God....but you are always on social media. You should keep quiet. Even you cannot influence anything the kingdom way. You are probably being influenced and you don't know it These people I'm talking about may not be on Twitter but everyone is the office knows that they fear God. They have several people who have come to know God through them. Some of them have won hundreds of souls to Christ this year, both in the villages and in cities like Lagos. They are always in the place of intercession. Between the office and home, they are praying for one widow or one drug addict they are planning to visit at the weekend. These are Jesus lovers who come online to look for prayer points. They read and receive burdens and not just have a good time. And off they go to groan, for individuals, for God's servants, for the church, for the nation. They simply have no time for tiktok. You may be far more online than them but their impact in Heaven and on earth will outweigh yours by far. It was Elijah who thought he was the last godfearing man standing, and it was God who told him He had seven thousand others. These believers are many. Several of them are on social media, some active and some passive; but there are so many of them who are hardly, if ever on social media, at all - but who are full of grace and understanding and standing for God. *MEDITATION:* *Apart from exclusive groups, social media is the public. It is a public space. It is like walking on the streets. It is not even the church. Apart from crusades and evangelism campaigns, believers don't meet on the streets. For that you have to walk or drive in and enter the meeting place. Likewise, there is a lot of solid Christianity and faith outside of what you see generally on facebook and twitter.* *Just so you know.* *#Ebele_UzoPeters* *#Tuesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Generational_Impact* *#GuestMessage* *#Hello_June* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/06/times-trends-faith.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 21ST/JUNE/2021* *THE DESIRE OF OUR FATHER* _Key Bible Text:_ *Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.* (Ephesians 6:2-3 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Fatherhood is not about bossing around. The man is the head, but he must also be the servant of all. True fathers fight for their family. They provide for, protect, and position their families for greater heights. I strongly believe that fathers are underrated. We go through a lot for our families, but are rarely recognized or praised. Fathers are built differently from mothers, and thus may not be able to handle certain pressures which mothers handle. But our intrinsic features equip us to be strong upholders of the integrity of our homes. Fathers are priceless! God has specially placed fathers in the home to instruct their families in the way of the Lord. This role must not be abandoned to the mothers. And just as women are made to be helpers to their husbands, HUSBANDS ARE BUILT TO BE HELPERS TO THEIR WIVES. It's not a one-sided affair. This is the desire of our Father in heaven. *MEDITATION:* *"And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord."* (Ephesians 6:4 (KJV)) *#David_O_Alabi* *#Monday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Generational_Impact* *#GuestMessage* *#Hello_June* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/06/the-desire-of-our-father.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 20TH/JUNE/2021* *MAXIMISING HOLIDAYS AND WEEKENDS* _Key Bible Text:_ *Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.* (Colossians 4:5) _Bible Insight:_ For personal development to take place, there is a need for you to spend quality time. Personal development is not something that would jump at you. You must take a conscious effort to do certain selected activities. Did I just hear you say that there is no time? Well, that is why we all have holidays and weekends. Some years ago, we had an NYSC member who came for her Youth Service with WiGRadio, she decided that apart from work, you wanted to learn a new skill which was tailoring. That was the aspect of personal development she was looking at. By the time she was completing her youth service, she had not only become well skilled at sewing but she was also good enough to sew for me and for a few people at WiGRadio. Of course she got paid. When did she learn these things? On her CDS days. Another lady came for one year industrial training with us at WiGRadio after that. She had also heard the story of Corper Edwina and had been interested in learning about sewing. Without discussing with anyone, she started attending a fashion training school during the weekends and on public holidays when we did not have work to do. The last time I checked her whatsapp status, I saw many wonderful clothes that Omowunmi had sewn. When was the last time you learnt a new skill? You might say "but I am not interested in fashion designing", yes I know! Whatever area you want to develop yourself, all you need to do is to go online now. You can learn a lot of new things on YouTube. As a student, you can learn photography online and patiently wait until you get a camera. If you hear of a training that comes up during a public holiday, maximise it. *MEDITATION:* *"Stop using your weekends and holidays to just sleep as a student. There is more that you can do. Today is Sunday, what are your plans for today? Do you just want to sleep and have a nice time? You can do more. You can decide to use today to develop yourself and become a better individual."* (Copied from Day 59 of the book ACADEMIC MENTOR DEVOTIONAL by @ *#Olawale_Perfect* Book copies via +2348039701132) *#Olawale_Perfect* *#Sunday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Generational_Impact* *#GuestMessage* *#Hello_June* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/06/maximising-holidays-and-weekends.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 19TH/JUNE/2021* *REDISCOVERING THE MESSAGE* (IX) _Key Bible Text:_ *But the solid foundation that God has laid cannot be shaken; and on it are written these words: "The Lord knows those who are his" and "Those who say that they belong to the Lord must turn away from wrongdoing."* (2 Timothy 2:19 (GNB)) _Bible Insight:_ John Knox was a great intercessor in Scotland whose prayer was feared by Queen Victoria, the sovereign ruler of that day. Like Finney, Spurgeon and other men who shook the world for Jesus. People think this gift or that anointing made them great, but we see that it is this recurring decimal of 2 Timothy 2:19 that made them fit for the Master's use - they NEVER downplayed or joked with the issue of sin. It wasn't only what they desired to receive from God through His grace, but what they desired to be taken away from them by God in His mercy. They wanted the Death of Christ to be their Death so that the Life of Christ could be their only living. They knew and lived the righteousness of God in such a way that they wept and mourned over the sins of themselves, of the church and of the world. Having thus knelt at the Cross, when they stood to preach, it was not with the persuasive words of men but by the power of God. I agree with Francis Schaeffer when he said "I have come to the conclusion that none of us in our generation feels as guilty (or rather, sorrowful) about sin as we should or as our forefathers did." Brethren, this is the difference. *MEDITATION:* *"Think of what he went through; how he put up with so much hatred from sinners! So do not let yourselves become discouraged and give up. For in your struggle against sin you have not yet had to resist to the point of being killed.* (Hebrews 12:3-4 (GNB)) *#Ebele_UzoPeters* *#Saturday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Generational_Impact* *#GuestMessage* *#Hello_June* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/06/rediscovering-message-ix.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
