*DAILY DEW 21/MAY/2024* *GUARDED SEXUALITY* _Key Bible Text:_ *The lips of another man's wife may be as sweet as honey and her kisses as smooth as olive oil, but when it is all over, she leaves you nothing but bitterness and pain.* (Proverbs 5:3-4 (GNB)) _Bible Insight:_ A lady you are not married to, is either another man's wife or a potential wife of another man. A man that you are not married to, is either another woman's husband or a potential husband to another woman. Living by the principle of guarded behaviour necessarily includes guarding against sexual impurity. Everything may look right, feel right, taste nice, and sound nice, but as long as the key of marriage is yet to be locked, don't indulge in such affairs. A highly sexualized society and social media will never kick against sexual activity outside marriage. Instead they will promote it and inspire it. But always remember that the God who created the world, and created man that invented social media and formed society will still judge this world one day! But before then, there is no doubt that the challenges and troubles of this world are rooted in the fact that sexuality is being commonized and made like a playing toy for children. Hence the world is full of pains and bitterness. Selah! _MEDITATION:_ *Do you want to be instrumental to fixing your society?

*DAILY DEW 20/MAY/2024* *GUARDED BEHAVIOUR* _Key Bible Text:_ *My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.* (Proverbs 5:1-2 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ My child, pay attention and listen to my wisdom and insight. Then you will know how to behave properly, and your words will show that you have knowledge Regarding discretion means behaving properly. It is a fruit of paying attention to wisdom and receiving understanding. When you dig deep into wisdom and submit to sound understanding, you will be a person of proper behavior and your words will be like a pot of good soup distributing delicacies and sweet aroma. If you fail to pay attention to wisdom and insight, when you open your mouth to speak, there will be trouble. And your attitude or behaviour will always provoke burden and concern to those around you. _MEDITATION:_ *Do you want to be fixed?

*DAILY DEW 19/MAY/2024* *GUARDED OBEDIENCE* _Key Bible Text:_ *My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding* (Proverbs 5:1 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Attend & bow (submit) unto God's wisdom. This word in Proverbs 5:1 must be received or applied as it relates to God's wisdom. We attend, by making time and mixing the matter with obedience, like where construction workers are mixing sand, cement and water. In this mixture, each element is important, but without the cement, the mixture becomes like a child's play on the beach's bank. Obedience is like the cement, without which the word (water) and the attention of time & faith (sand) will not amount to anything. God builds our lives up as we apply and mix up, sand (ie. time and attentive faith), water (the word), and cement (obedience) Guard your obedience because it is either you obey God's wisdom or human wisdom. Bow thine ear to God's understanding. Defer to God's wisdom. _MEDITATION:_ *What or who are you giving your obedience to? The word of God, or worldly wisdom??* *#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 16/MAY/2024* *GUARDED FOCUS* (2) _Key Bible Text:_ *And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.* (Matthew 14:29-30 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The man with an ungarded focus, will end as the man with a lost focus, unless correction is taken in good time. But a man with no focus is "better" than a man with a lost focus. The first will hardly know what he lost, the latter will always know and will always regret it. This means, once you determine your focus, by all means keep to it. Peter will always remember the day he walked on water and wished he never lost focus. Those who know and believe that Jesus saves, but allow the enemy to tempt them towards backsliding will always be worse than those who never heard the Gospel, talk less of believing it, before they died. The pain of not guarding your focus is more than the pain of not having a focus. But a life with no focus is not worth living! _MEDITATION:_ *What is your life's chief focus?* *#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 15/MAY/2024* *GUARDED FOCUS* _Key Bible Text:_ *Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.* (Proverbs 4:25-27 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Life is basically a test of how well you keep your focus and what kind of focus you have. A dear friend said to me a long time ago, "if you focus on your focus, you will become a focus". Our world is filled with all sorts of distractions, both negative and positive. So many weights are clinging tightly to us. If we are going to be known for something, achieve something great, and accomplish God's purposes for our lives, we must 1. Determine what we must focus our lives on, and 2. Be committed in keeping and guarding our focus. Many students enter school with the hope of graduating with a first class or distinction. They are actually capable of achieving the feat but along the line they lose focus and fail to achieve it. _MEDITATION:_ *As it is for students, so it is for businesses, career persons, parents, politicians, and anyone. Determine your focus, and guard your focus.* *#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.
