*THE WORD ABOVE ALL*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.*
(James 1:21 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
A man whose doctrine is so errant but prophesies a lot, you receive him.
A man whose handling of the word of God is misleading but releases songs that go viral, you celebrate and receive Him.
A man who has misrepresented God so much, making Him look like a money greedy deity who only blesses those who have what to give him, you receive Him and honor Him because he prays so much and works signs and wonders.
A man who preaches the word and points out errors that misrepresent the Christian faith? He is to be ignored. He is a plague. A divisive man. A trouble maker. You know what? That says so much about us as a people. We really do not honor the word.
God will judge us for receiving every other gift in the body of Christ apart from the ministries of those who have been sent to teach, and then to correct, rebuke, and straighten us up in how we handle the scriptures, because we are a proud people.
_MEDITATION:_
*"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves."* (James 1:22 (KJV))

*DAILY DEW 8TH/DECEMBER/2021*
*Once Saved, Always Saved?*
_Key Bible Text:_
*For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.*
(Hebrews 10:26-27 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The logic of once saved always saved is that God is merciful, forgiving, and that he would not send Jesus to die for sins, and afterwards still punish believers for their sins.
Another related logic is that God hates divorce. Since Christ is the groom of the church, His bride, God will not therefore divorce her, no matter what she does. Sound? Right? Well, let's see.
Truth is, the above logic, and others that is being used to support the idea of once saved, always saved, is so sweet and believable that many easily fall for it. Why are these logic so effective in deceiving many? It is because it is a mixture of truth and not so true ideas of scripture.
What's the truth? God indeed forgives and is merciful. He also is a divorce hating God. However, what is not so true? God also said ahead of time, that he is a consuming fire, and that he hates sin and that the wages of sin is death. The same Bible that teaches the half truth of these logic, also debunks the other not so true half.
When it comes to this issue, you must desist from rationalization. Instead, you must stick to what is written. As you can see from Hebrews 10:26-27, it clearly shows that when believers return to their sins, after having received Christ, they are liable to face the same consequences facing those who do not receive Christ-- perishing eternally.
_MEDITATION:_
*"If the penalty for breaking the law of Moses is physical death, what do you think will happen if you turn on God's Son, spit on the sacrifice that made you whole, and insult this most gracious Spirit? This is no light matter. God has warned us that he'll hold us to account and make us pay. He was quite explicit: "Vengeance is mine, and I won't overlook a thing," and, "God will judge his people." Nobody's getting by with anything, believe me."* (Hebrews 10:28-31 (The Message))

*The Big Day Approaching*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.*
(Hebrews 10:25 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The believer's life must be measured by two indices like the two sides of a coin- inward and outward dimensions. The inward dimension is best known to God and yourself however the outward dimension is to be appreciated by those around you. We can as well say that the outward dimension of the believer's life is for public consumption.
One of the things that scriptures teaches is that you as a believer must never assume that you don't need others in your growth and walk with God. As a matter of fact everything you are in the inward dimension means nothing if there is no correct outward dimension. The only exception to this rule is that God makes a big deal of our inward dimensions as much as he does of our outward dimensions.
Most times people want to care less about their outward dimensions, claiming that only the inward dimensions matters. However, God who alone accesses and assesses the inward dimensions, calls us to ensure correct outward dimensions.
One of these correct approach to outward dimensions, is to never neglect the place of corporate worship, corporate edification, corporate service and corporate growth. You are to be a part of the physical gathering of the brethren. Despite the "issues" that sometimes befalls the church system, there is no known scriptural basis and justification for any true follower of Jesus to be exempted from corporate worship.
As a matter of fact, we are told to ensure that we are gathering habitually with other believers, in worship and exhortation and service and growth as we see the coming of Christ drawing nearer than when we first believed.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching!'* (Hebrews 10:24-25 (The Message))

*CHOOSE YOUR PAIN*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Keep your eyes on [Jesus], who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed--that exhilarating finish in and with God--he could put up with anything along the way: cross, shame, whatever. And now he's [there], in the place of honor, right alongside God.*
(Hebrews 12:2 (AMP))
_Bible Insight:_
I must thank my Pastor, K. C. Onyegbuna whose words kept repeating in my heart as I thought about this topic-- choose your pain!
Face this fact of life, you can't run away from pain in life completely. The rich, the poor, the educated, the illiterate, the middle class, the classless class, etc are all subject to pass through pain at certain points in life. Life is never painless.
In fact, pains are the building blocks of life. Yes.
Job 14:1 (KJV) says, *"Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble."* Indeed, trouble and pain are the twins of life. As much as we dislike them, they hold the key to greatness in life. #Selah
In as much as pain is inseparable from life, we can choose which or what kind of pain we must endure. God has given us the power of choice. A man who does not face the pain of discipline, hard work and some measure of stress, will definitely face the pain of regret and poverty.
Hence we must choose to go through pain deliberately and voluntarily, so that we don't go through pain forcefully. Jesus did exactly that. He chose to suffer the cross, shame and pain because he was poised for the crown of glory ahead of him.
If Jesus did not escape pain, no one can. The best we can do like Jesus, is to choose what kind of pain we must endure.
_MEDITATION:_
*In order to have great happiness you have to have great pain and unhappiness - otherwise how would you know when you're happy?* -

*FAITHFUL THANKSGIVING*
_Key Bible Text:_
*In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.*
(1Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The Bible makes a big deal of thanksgiving, especially to God. God demands faithfulness in thanksgiving. Having faith enough to give thanks and giving thanks dutifully is what God deserves. He demands nothing less.
Think about God who created you. Does He feel entitled or rather would we be ingrates to not shower thanks and praises unto His name? God does not feel entitled, rather we are duty bound to pour our thanksgiving to His name.
Likewise, because generally we like to adore or be nice to those who we perceive as having been nice to us, we sometimes want to have a special reason before we thank God. What we must realize is that we can't be nicer than God. We only need to deliberately count our blessings to see how faithful and nice God has been.
We look at several daily miracles as common place: you slept, you woke up; you went out, and returned safely; you have needs and they are met one way or the other, fully or in part, and the list is endless. Indeed, God has been faithful.
_MEDITATION:_
*Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:* (Colossians 1:12Â )
