*DAILY DEW 1ST/NOVEMBER/2021* *STARTING UP* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.* (Philippians 4:13 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Hardwork will keep you busy. You have to act on your ideas and work on your plans too whether you have all the resources and support or not. Again, you need self-confidence. Understand that you deserve the best and that you have the abilities to withstand all the challenges and difficulties that will come, because they will. For patience, this is very vital too. Patience will keep your hope alive as you wait for your breakthrough. Pay attention to this ⚠️ There's something in the Far East called the "Chinese bamboo", it take 5years to grow and in this 5years it remains in the ground and it requires constant watering, fertilization, weeding etc for it to survive but when it finally comes out of the ground after the 5years, it now grows 90feet tall in 5weeks. 90feets can be 20times the height of an average individual. But the success of this Chinese bamboo to grow pass its start up stage, won't be possible if faith, work, confidence, patience etc weren't applied. And am saying to you, Whatever you are facing today, know that those challenges and struggles are worth your victory. If you were able to conceive that dream, then you can also achieve it.🔥🔥💪🏾 I applaud your courage and desire to take decisions, start up a new business, a new life or act on your dreams. You'll surely make it with the help of God. For with God, everything is possible. Find reasons not to quit. Find those reasons to keep you marching forward even when the whole world is saying stop!🙏🏾 Have a Blessed New Month! 😇 *MEDITATION* *Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.* (Ephesians 4:28 (KJV)) *#Johnson_Crystal_Kalu:* *#Monday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#Guest_Message* *#HTP2021_Loading* *#Hello_November* ❤ Links To Visit: Register for *HTP2021:* https://bit.ly/HTP2021_Registration *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/10/starting-up-ii.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 31ST/OCTOBER/2021* *STARTING UP* _Key Bible Text:_ *For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.* (1 John 5:4 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The most difficult stage of any new life, career, business, invention and growth generally, is starting up. When you enter an airplane, before it takes off, you'll be asked to fasten your seatbelt because of an altitude the airplane will attain. But after that turbulent period, everything will come back to normal. And this is what happens when you set off to achieve great heights, you'll need hold on through some hurdles, rejections, disappointments, failures etc till after sometime when things will start to work out well. That's life! Unfortunately, in reality, most people are not willing to hold on: they seek for instant results. Some don't have the courage to pull through the start up stage and they just settle for less. Some start and stop, some blame the government, family and friends for not giving them enough support. Most are afraid of failing even before getting started. Overcoming the difficulties associated with the start up stage requires us to have faith, hardwork, confidence and patience. You have to believe in your ideas, goals, plans, career etc. Know that your ideas can change the world. You have to have the faith that things will work out well. If not instantly but soon. You have to also assure yourself everyday of the possibility of what you've hoped for. *MEDITATION* *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.* (Hebrews 11:6 (KJV)) *#Johnson_Crystal_Kalu:* *#Sunday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#Guest_Message* *#HTP2021_Loading* *#Hello_November* ❤ Links To Visit: Register for *HTP2021:* https://bit.ly/HTP2021_Registration *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/10/starting-up.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 30TH/OCTOBER/2021* *CHECKING YOUR SPIRITUAL HEALTH METER* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.* (Ephesians 6:10-11 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ These “symptoms” come as warnings to us to address the intruder immediately, so that it does not progress into something more serious or shut our systems down immediately. The same way these “warning signs” come to tell us when we’re running on empty, when our God-meter is dangerously low/blinking red. We should not even let it get to this point, because we are to stay constantly filled with the Spirit and in continual communion with God, but in the case that it has/does and we have recognized the problem, the solution is not to stay trapped in guilt and self-loathing. It does no good. The solution is to immediately take up the sword of Spirit - the word of God, step into worship, and put on the garment of brokenness; this is how you put fire on your altar. We are the worst versions of ourselves when we are apart from God. We underestimate the damage we’re capable of, apart from God. So child of God, read your Bible and pray *everyday*. Stay planted in God. Keep that meter full and that battery charged. *MEDITATION* *For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.* (Ephesians 6:12-13 (KJV)) *#Ebele_the_servant* *#Saturday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#HTP2021_Loading* *#Guest_Message* *#Hello_October* ❤ Links To Visit: Register for *HTP2021:* https://bit.ly/HTP2021_Registration *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/10/checking-your-spiritual-health-meter-ii.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 29TH/OCTOBER/2021* *CHECKING YOUR SPIRITUAL HEALTH METER* (I) _Key Bible Text:_ *Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?* (2 Corinthians 13:5 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ This is how I am/know when my ‘God-meter’ is low/on red: 1. I mindlessly lie and easily become manipulative. 2. I crave more worldly content (especially songs) than godly content. 3. I crave *a lot* of junk food; a very very very unhealthy amount. 4. I become very irritable and quick to get angry. 5. The days feel too long and the nights feel too short - I do not look forward to doing anything productive. There’s no inspiration to do anything productive. 6. When I sleep, my dreams make less and less sense. 7. I become careless with my thoughts, and allow them wander to sexual places. We all have a ‘God-meter’, and when that meter starts to run on empty, we know. It’s different things for different people, but we can all tell the clear difference between when we’re *filled* with the Spirit and when we’re hanging on to the last strand of spiritual sensitivity we have left. We know. It’s the way a typical Nigerian knows when they’re about to come down with malaria. For some, they have injuries or boils in/around their mouths and noses. For some others, like me, it starts with a sore throat. For yet some, it starts with pain around your joints. We all know. *MEDITATION* *How do you know your God-meter is running low? If you identify the signs, you should be able to deal with ensuring you don't run low.* *#Ebele_the_servant* *#Friday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#HTP2021_Loading* *#Guest_Message* *#Hello_October* ❤ Links To Visit: Register for *HTP2021:* https://bit.ly/HTP2021_Registration *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/10/checking-your-spiritual-health-meter-i.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 28TH/OCTOBER/2021* *KEEPING THE BODY BALANCED* (III) _Key Bible Text:_ *He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.* (John 3:36 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The wrath of God vs the love of God. The wrath of God abides, (i.e. rests) on anyone who does not believe the Gospel. This is a scary truth that many fights against, especially those who do not believe. They always wonder *"how possible is it that God would sentence billions to hell or lake of fire or eternal death & destruction, simply because they do not believe Jesus or the Gospel?"* Well, they can wonder all they want, but God is not joking. The matter is sealed. Actually, people make their choice to go to hell, God only honours it. The only way out is actually for anyone who wants to be saved, to believe the gospel. There is no other way! (By the way, why would Jesus come to die if there was another way to salvation? 🤷🏽‍♂ ) One of the ways to get a balance in the body of Christ is to understand and teach the doctrine of eternal condemnation of the unbelieving vis a vis God's great love, accessible by believing the Gospel. In effect, we can see two sides of God's personality (three actually): His love and His Love (& His Holiness); or His great mercy and His Consuming fire. God detests sin because He is a holy God. He would not just let sin slide. Judgment will follow in due course if there is no repentance. Actually, His great love to redeem men from sin, is because He wants them to escape His wrath which is the punishment for sin. (Holiness demands that sin is punished) For those who understand this, what must be our reaction? For Paul the Apostle, he embraced the preaching of the Gospel because he submits that the Gospel is the power of God to save. (Rom 1:16) But he didn't stop there. He also said that in the Gospel, God's righteousness is revealed (seen in the righteousness of Jesus who died for sins in order to save sinners) and also God's wrath is revealed (seen in his judgment against sin)! (Rom 1:17-18) An understanding of the love and wrath of God, will push the believer to live and preach the Gospel more than ever before, while it will push the unbeliever to believe and accept the Gospel immediately. *MEDITATION* *For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.* (2 Corinthians 5:10-11 (KJV)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Thursday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#HTP2021_Loading* *#Hello_October* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/10/keeping-body-balanced-iii.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
