*DAILY DEW 12TH/NOVEMBER/2021* *HOLDING ON* _Key Bible Text:_ *Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)* (Hebrews 10:23 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The times when we live in, it is not just enough to start a good cause. Holding on till the end is the ultimate proof of success. When we come to the Knowledge of Christ, it is not a one time decision. We must continue to press on, we must continue to abide, and we must continue to follow hard after Christ. Following Christ sincerely is like moving against the tides, and only those who hold fast without wavering, will be able to survive the host of temptations and distractions without caving in. Hebrews 10 verse 21 began by reminding us that we have a great high priest over the house of God. For which reason, verse 22 calls us to draw near with a true heart fully assured and our hearts and bodies washed with pure water. We have explained these previously. However, we are also called upon to hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering. For anything God calls our attention to, there is a reason. Looking critically at the way the world is today, (just as the Word of God has earlier prophesied should be) if we must succeed as believers, we must apply both verse 22 of Hebrews 10 and verse 23. There are certain things to be understood of this charge in verse 23. Amplified version of Hebrews 10:23, says *"So let us seize and hold fast and retain without wavering the hope we cherish and confess and our acknowledgement of it, for He Who promised is reliable (sure) and faithful to His word."* As we can see, what King James version calls "Faith", Amplified calls "Hope". Using the two words interchangeably in this context does not remove the meaning but rather adds to the meaning as we shall see later. _MEDITATION:_ *Let us hold on firmly to the hope we profess, because we can trust God to keep his promise.* (Hebrews 10:23 (GNB)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Friday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Supernatural_Supplies_Month* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#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/2021/11/holding-on.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 11TH/NOVEMBER/2021* *MODERATION* _Key Bible Text:_ *Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?* (Colossians 2:20-22 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Dead religion: No hairdo. No make up. No weave-on. No curls. Cover hair. Shave hair. No trousers. Wear sac. Wear shawl. Wear coat. Look drab. Never "say cheese". No earrings. Dress must sweep ground. Just pray. No spray. No perfume. Just fume. No lace. Hard face. Look down. 'Holy' Frown. Modern religion: Squint. Pucker. On fleek. Slay. Backside. Frontside. Sideside. Slay. Six packs. Beard gang. Pepper 'em gang. Slay. Earring, nosering, tongue-ring. Slay. Sag. Show boxers. You kill'd it. Slay. You've gad'it. Flaunt it. Gram it. Slay. Christian faith: Your body? God's temple. It is not your palette. Your beauty should reflect His glory. And not your own pleasure. Don't call undue attention to yourself. Let modesty instead be your plain style; and make your smile your main signature. Be different. Be decent. Be serious. Be virtuous. Be sober. Be free. _MEDITATION:_ *Let your moderation be known unto all men.

*DAILY DEW 10TH/NOVEMBER/2021* *PURE WATER* (THE END) _Key Bible Text:_ *In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.* (John 7:37-38 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The essence of this teaching is to remind and explain to an extent the importance of the "pure water" that can positively impact our conscience and cleanse our bodies. Please understand that the washing of our bodies refers to the outward transformation of the acts of our bodies. Thus it is vital to explore other significant usage of the word _water_ Water as already explained refers to the word of God that cleanses us by first ridding us of evil conscience and then helping us conduct ourselves in line with our renewed minds. However, there is more. This then brings us to the very important *rivers of living water* By this reference, Jesus introduced a new symbolic meaning to the word, "water", that is, the Holy Spirit. (John 7:39). Notice that in John 7:39 where this direct connection was made between water and the Holy Spirit, there was need to make a clear reference that Jesus meant "rivers of living water" as a specific reference to the Holy Spirit. Here there is a slight difference that can be inferred with the phrase "washing of water" and "rivers of living water". The former may be from a fixed source whereas the latter is from a moving source. The Holy Spirit indeed, is ever moving, transforming and discipling men. Indeed, there is a relationship with water and the Holy Spirit. Looking at John 1:33 (KJV), which says *"And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost."* We can see that water baptism required total submergence of the individual. Likewise, the operation of the "rivers of living water", that is, the Holy Spirit, requires total yielded-ness and submergence or to be more accurate, submission. When we approach our High Priest, we must come as we have been invited to do, but we must come with readiness to allow both the pure water of the water and living water of the Spirit to run their course through our lives. Otherwise, even if we come, we would not know any change or difference in us. This is why many who "come" to Christ, and even attend church, are still without any meaningful transformation! _MEDITATION:_ *Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.* (Hebrews 3:12-13 (KJV)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Wednesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Supernatural_Supplies_Month* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#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/2021/11/pure-water-end.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 7TH/NOVEMBER/2021* *KEEPING THE BODY BALANCED* (The End) _Key Bible Text:_ *And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.* (1 John 4:16-17 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The fear of God ultimately leads to the love of God. The love of God comes on the heels of the fear of God because that respect and devotion to His word is what God regards as love. A man's perspective of love is respect. For God, his perspective of love is obedience to His word. To love God, is to obey His commands. This is the love that 1John 4:16 speaks of. -- He that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God! It is important to understand 1 John 4 verse 17 flowing from verse 16. Verse 17 speaks of a destination, a place we must all aspire to get to. It speaks to the ultimate goal of loving God-- to have boldness in the face of judgment because we have come to the fullness of the measure of the stature of Christ. See, loving God, obeying His word fills us with boldness. That's why the righteous are as bold as lion. Amen. You can't be saying you are like Jesus in this world, while you are grossly underperforming or disobeying the word of God. This is why we have boldness-- because we are obedient to His Word. And we are obedient because we are in love with Jesus. And we love Jesus, because Jesus loved us first. What does the Bible teach about loving God? (See John 14:15. Loving God is not merely making faith declarations or singing "I love you Lord" or "Jesus, lover of my soul". Loving God is in obedience to His Word) This then brings us to verse 18 flowing directly from verse 17. The one who has actually matured in loving God, which means to be as Jesus is, to walk in obedience to His word, has nothing to fear. Please ponder these words. Jesus said the prince of this world is coming and He has nothing against Him. That's fearlessness as a result of perfect obedience. Perfect love here stands for perfect obedience. Hence, verse 20 & 21 explains that if we can't show love to men, we are jokers to think that we love God. #Selah _MEDITATION:_ *Before you scream perfect love casts out fear, do you live in obedience to His Word? Where is your love without your life of obedience? The one who knows he is still struggling with obedience must reverently ask God for help. Even when we rest on the finished works of Christ, we must understand that we have nothing to boast except for God's mercy* *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Sunday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Month_of_Goodnews* *#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/2021/11/keeping-body-balanced-end.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
