*DAILY DEW 6/JUNE/2024* *RUN* (2) _Key Bible Text:_ *Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.* (Proverbs 6:28-29 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ This question is very paramount: Whoever steps upon hot coals will have a story to tell and it will not be a pleasant one. No one who touches another's wife will be found innocent. The same is true for anyone who touches another's husband. I like to view this in the actual as well as in the potential sense. To touch another's wife, therefore simply means any lady you are not married. Until marriage/wedding, every lady, including your fiancée, is another man's wife. When you eventually marry her, you become her man! This applies for the man as well. Whoever touches a man or lady they are not married to, shall not be innocent. We call these fornicators and adulterers respectively. The wise thing to do is avoid situations and scenario that can lead to a compromise. Lone night walks, lurking in ungodly places, visiting bars and restaurants together or even alone, going out for cinema as a "couple" at night, etc. The wise thing to do is to RUN! RUN from every tempting possibilities until you say, "I DO"! _MEDITATION:_ *"Proverbs 6:30-35 We don't put up with thieves, not even with one who steals for something to eat. And thieves who get caught must pay back seven times what was stolen and lose everything. But if you go to bed with another man's wife, you will destroy yourself by your own stupidity. You will be beaten and forever disgraced, because a jealous husband can be furious and merciless when he takes revenge. He won't let you pay him off, no matter what you offer."* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_JUNE,2024* ? *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 30/MAY/2024* *SEVEN THINGS THE LORD HATES* _Key Bible Text:_ *These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him* (Proverbs 6:16 (AMPLIFIED)) _Bible Insight:_ God is Love. For a God who is love, it is important to mark and avoid the things he hates. Proverbs 6:17 A proud look [the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others], a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 1. PRIDE. God is very very very emphatic about this. One thing he doesn't stomach is people who are proud. What is making you overestimate yourself and underestimate others? Repent! 2. LIES. In a world where a lot of people subscribe to the philosophy that "the end justifies the means", deceit and lying has become what people enjoy doing these days. They want to "cover up", pretend, "package", etc and sometimes they go the extreme length of lying to achieve their aims. We are reminded today, that God hates it! 3. MURDER. This is extreme. Most of us should think we can never kill. But it is good to think of this as Jesus thought of it. How? Mathew 5:21,22 comes to mind. Anger without cause or without restraint is of equal consequences as murder before God. So avoid murder but even so avoid anger especially without restraint. _MEDITATION:_ *"Six things are hated by the Lord; seven things are disgusting to him: Eyes of pride, a false tongue, hands which take life without cause."* (Proverbs 6:16-17 BBE) *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_JUNE,2024* ? *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 29/MAY/2024* *GUARDED HONESTY* _Key Bible Text:_ *Worthless liars go around winking and giving signals to deceive others. They are always thinking up something cruel and evil, and they stir up trouble. But they will be struck by sudden disaster and left without a hope.* (Proverbs 6:12-15 (Message)) _Bible Insight:_ Lying is the stock in trade of cowards. Deceit is the strategy of evil and cruel people who delight in afflicting others with trouble! Greedy people lie and deceive others to get what they want. It suffice to say that God is the perfect record keeper who knows how to take care of such fellows. They may think that they have gotten away, but sadly, they don't know that self deceit is already leading them to destruction. Avoid the ways of deceivers and liars. Train yourself to be truthful in a world where lying has been normalized and habitualized. Ours is now a world where those who wish to insist on the truth are fast becoming endangered species. If you are one, brace up to do more because you are closer to fulfilling 2 Timothy 3:12. Congratulations in advance. _MEDITATION:_ *"2 Timothy 3:12 (KJV) Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution."* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_MAY,2024* ? *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 28/MAY/2024* *GUARDED VIGILANCE* _Key Bible Text:_ *Sleep a little. Doze a little. Fold your hands and twiddle your thumbs. Suddenly, everything is gone, as though it had been taken by an armed robber.* (Proverbs 6:10-11 (Message)) _Bible Insight:_ You will not always have that opportunity! No one always has the opportunity to do something! Opportunity is a scare commodity that you dont always get to predict or determine their availability. Whatever you have opportunity to do, don't let it slip through your fingers! Stop sleeping on opportunities! They say POOR means, passing over opportunities regularly! The best model to adopt, is to be on a 24/7 prepared mode to take on opportunities that come your way. Most failures in life are not because of lack of opportunities but because of misused and abused and underused opportunities. By the way, opportunities don't always come in the way you expect. Sometimes, opportunities come disguised as responsibilities and extra work to be done. Vigilance requires having a good sense of what is needed to be done at any given moment. Mary and Martha had the opportunity to be visited by Jesus. But Martha missed it because she felt it was time to serve a great meal but Mary understood it was tike to sit down and listen to the greatest teacher ever. _MEDITATION:_ *"May we be awake and vigilant to spot and take up opportunities and respond appropriately"* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_MAY,2024* ? *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 27/MAY/2024* *GUARDED DILIGENCE* _Key Bible Text:_ *You lazy people can learn by watching an anthill. Ants don't have leaders, but they store up food during harvest season. How long will you lie there doing nothing at all? When are you going to get up and stop sleeping?* (Proverbs 6:6-9 (Message)) _Bible Insight:_ Laziness. Hardwork. The ants show their diligence or hard work by their planning and preparations for a better tomorrow! Hardwork or diligence is always about doing today what will better your tomorrow. Diligence is taking a pain now, to kill the greater pain of tomorrow. Laziness is avoiding a pain now/today, but storing up a greater pain for tomorrow. Laziness entices by promising present rest and idleness but that turns out to be a big disappointing bubble. Laziness gives you temporary pleasures today but in return you pay more inconvenience or failure or failed plans tomorrow. Laziness gives you a feeling of instant relief but it is just a delayed trouble in the making that usually comes back in double dosage. _MEDITATION:_ *"If ants can do better, we certainly can"* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_MAY,2024* ? *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
