*DAILY DEW 1/JULY/2023* *THE ERROR OF BALAAM* (I) _Key Bible Text:_ *"Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me: peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land: for I wot that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed."* (Numbers 22:6 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ HIRING THE ASSASSIN OF A CURSES After the Jewish people wandered 40 years in the desert, they camped at the border of Moab as they got ready to enter the Promised Land. The Moabites were scared because the Jews had defeated the Moabites’ guardians, the Emori. Moab and Midian banded together and appointed a Balak as king over them. Balak recognized that this was a supernatural power struggle as much as anything else, so he hired Balaam "from Aram, out of the mountains of the east," to curse them. Balak asked him to curse Israel in exchange for a reward. Balaam said he needed God’s permission. God said, “Who are these men?” He wasn’t confused; it’s an invitation to a conversation, much like, “What have you done?” (Adam) and “Where is your brother?” (Cain) And Balaam actually steps up to the plate. He’s honest. He tells God they want him to curse the Israelites so they can drive them out. God’s response is very clear: “You must not put a curse on those people, because they are blessed” (verse 12). So Balaam tells the men he can’t go, but he doesn’t tell them that he’s not allowed to curse them. He just says God said no. _MEDITATION:_ *"You can't stop some people from trying to harm or curse you but you can stop being worried or bothered about them because only God has the final say"* *#TheChurchofTheLivingGod* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_JULY,2023* ❤ *#Guest_Message* Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 30/JUNE/2023* *The Way of Cain* (IV) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel."* (Hebrews 12:24 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Spurgeon has a great summary of why the blood of Abel is supposed to turn our eyes toward the blood of Christ. There is a cry heard in heaven, the angels are astonished; they rise up from their golden seats, and they enquire, "What is that cry?" God looketh upon them, and he saith, "It is the cry of blood, a man hath been slain by his fellow; a brother by him who came from the bowels of the self-same mother has been murdered in cold blood, through malice. One of my saints has been murdered, and here he comes… And then the cry was heard, loud and clear and strong; and thus it spoke—"Revenge! revenge! revenge!" And now, beloved, just contrast with this the blood of Christ. That is Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Son of God; he hangs upon a tree; he is murdered—murdered by his own brethren. "He came unto his own, and his own received him not, but his own led him out to death." He bleeds; he dies; and then is heard a cry in heaven. The astonished angels again start from their seats, and they say," What is this? What is this cry that we hear?" And the Mighty Maker answers yet again, "It is the cry of blood; it is the cry of the blood of my only-begotten and well-beloved Son!" And God, uprising from his throne, looks down from heaven and listens to the cry. And what is the cry? It is not revenge; but the voice crieth, "Mercy! mercy! mercy!" Did you not hear it? It said, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." Herein, the blood of Christ "speaketh better things than that of Abel," for Abel's blood said, "Revenge!" and made the sword of God start from its scabbard; but Christ's blood cried "Mercy!" and sent the sword back again, and bade it sleep for ever. _MEDITATION:_ *"Blood hath a voice to pierce the skies, 'Revenge!' the blood of Abel cries; But the rich blood of Jesus slain, Speaks peace as loud from every vein."* *#TheChurchofTheLivingGod* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_JUNE,2023* ❤ *#Guest_Message* Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 29/JUNE/2023* *The Way of Cain* (IV) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel."* (Hebrews 12:24 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ But I see a God of grace in this story (of Cain and Abel) as well. 1. “Lift up your face,” God says to Cain after his rejected sacrifice even while knowing his heart. You get to try again when you fail in the Kingdom of God. God does not intend for your downcast face to remain downcast. He gives a warning: “If you continue to be angry, you will walk right into the demon crouching outside the door. Lift up your face. Look at me.” 2. God will give you a chance to own your sin (“Where is Abel?”) Repentance is always an option. Always. When God says, “What have you done?” don’t shrug your shoulders or point at someone else. Say what David said in Psalm 51:4: “I have done what is evil in your sight, so that you are proved right when you speak and justified when you judge.” 3. See the promise of the Big Picture: God’s promises and purposes cannot be thwarted. Keep in mind that as Moses wrote or compiled these accounts while they were in the wilderness between the land of slavery and the land of promise, he was reminding them of their history. Time after time it looked like the promises of God would fail— like in the murder of Abel, when Cain, the firstborn, was supposed to crush the head of the serpent and instead began the line of the serpent. But then there was Seth, which brought about Noah, who brought about Abraham… God’s promises and purposes will not be thwarted. Lift up your face. 4. And finally, the Messianic connection: there is spilled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel (Heb. 12:24). _MEDITATION:_ *“See the promise of the Big Picture: God’s promises and purposes cannot be thwarted"* *#TheChurchofTheLivingGod* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_JUNE,2023* ❤ *#Guest_Message* Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

I'll be teaching us a special food recipe. This particular food has proven to be healthy, tasty and exceptional. I named it, THE STOCKFISH EGG STEW.😁 Actually, the first time I posted this recipe online I got several reactions from people. Alot complained about the ingredients combination and all. Some said it'll never be tasty, some said it won't work, some said stockfish plus egg looks weird etc. And I realized that people are just used to the normal everyday food and no one wants to try something different. Well I have, that's why I'm sharing this with you. The few persons who have tasted this meal were all amazed and they said they were going to try it. Ingredients. Stockfish (flesh/meaty part) Raw eggs (about 2 or 3). Tomatoes (Sachet/Tin preferably) Vegetable/groundnut oil. Crayfish (grinded one). Onions. Pepper. Seasoning cubes Salt. Procedure: Actually, the quantity of the ingredients above is relative to the quality of stockfish egg stew you want to make. But basically let it be moderate. 1) Boil your stock fish in water for about 5-10mins so it becomes very soft. Please don't add salt while boiling. 2) Slice your onions, pepper, tomatoes (if it's fresh tomatoes you finally got). 3) Then add moderate quantity of groundnut oil on an empty pot, allow it for few seconds on fire, then pour your onions. 4) Then keeping stirring like you are making a normal stew. If you've not made stew before 🙄 don't worry. Keep turning and stirring. Please don't allow it to fry too much. 5) Add your tomatoes and stir for about a minute. 6) Then break your eggs inside the pot and stir. 7) At this stage you'll realize the combination will be very thick. Please add very little water, salt, pepper and then add your grinded crayfish and stir. 8) Add other ingredients and spices to taste and stir. 9) Then add your boiled stockfish to the combination 😍😍. 10) Taste the stew and know if you need to add extra salt or spices. Then close your pot and allow to boil for two minutes. 11) Welcome to the STOCKFISH EGG STEW club 😁😁. You can serve with boiled rice, beans, yam or you can even eat with bread. Thank you. Emmmm. Lest I forget, the idea of the stock fish stew is to have little little chunks of it in the stew so you can eat alongside the food. So try to break the stock fish in small quantities.
