*DAILY DEW 3RD/SEPTEMBER/2021* *MELCHIZEDEK* (V) _Key Bible Text:_ *NOW THE main point of what we have to say is this: We have such a High Priest, One Who is seated at the right hand of the majestic [God] in heaven, [Ps. 110:1.] As officiating Priest, a Minister in the holy places and in the true tabernacle which is erected not by man but by the Lord.* (Hebrews 8:1-2 (Amplified)) _Bible Insight:_ What's the main point of studying Melchizedek? The main point is seen in out text today as well as in Hebrews 7:25 (Meditation). Jesus lives on to intercede for us and to save us completely! Hallelujah! What does this really mean? The salvation we received is actually in phases. The first phase is when you received Jesus into your life. (John 1:12) The second phase is everyday as you decide to continue in Christ.(James 1:21, Rom 11:22, 1 Tim 4:16) The last phase is finally when we shall be received up in glory (doing away with flesh) and given a crown of life. (1 Cor 15:52, 53, ROM 8:20-25) Understanding the dynamics of our salvation, will help us realize the utmost need for our High Priest such as Jesus. He lives forever to intercede for us. He lives to ensure that we will not stop at the first phase of our salvation, nor at the second.bHe lives to carry us through and help us maintain our faith till the very end. Thank God we are not following a dead hero. Jesus is our living hero. Indeed, we are truly SAVED by the LIFE of Christ. *Romans 5:10 (KJV) For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be SAVED BY HIS LIFE.* #Selah Jesus, risen up from the dead, sits at the right hand of the Father. He contradicts the accuser of the brethren, who is ever pointing accusing fingers at us. Jesus sits in the court of heaven as our living, loving and capable advocate. Bringing his strong reasons of his death and blood as evidence that sin has no hold on us. Indeed, because he lives we can take solace in His word in Luke 12:32 (KJV) *Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.* Celebrate grace! *MEDITATION* *Therefore He is able also to save to the uttermost (completely, perfectly, finally, and for all time and eternity) those who come to God through Him, since He is always living to make petition to God and intercede with Him and intervene for them.* (Hebrews 7:25 (Amplified)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Friday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_September* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/09/melchizedek-v.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 29TH/AUGUST/2021* *THE REVERENTIAL FEAR OF GOD.* _Key Bible Text:_ *The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.* (Proverbs 1:7 (NIV)) _Bible Insight:_ Who do you choose to serve? God or the things of this world? Proverbs 1:7 begins with declaring, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” According to Strong’s Concordance, the word ‘fear’, is the Hebrew word, ‘Yirah’ (H3374) which means: “fear (of God), respect, and reverence”. The reverential fear and respect of God is the beginning or the starting point of knowledge. Before you begin anything *seek God.* Before you start a career *seek God*. Before you begin a business or start a new venture — choose to seek God. Choose to revere God’s Word and He will direct your pathway. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” In order to ask for wisdom, understanding, skill and insight you must start with having a reverential fear of God. He is the starting point.

*DAILY DEW 28TH/AUGUST/2021* *THE POWER OF CHOICE* (I) _Key Bible Text:_ *I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:* (Deuteronomy 30:19 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ *_When you are born, you will look like your parents, but when you are "done" you will resemble your choices._* Choices have consequences either good or bad. Decisions determine destiny. Why didn't Eve choose the tree of life? Have you asked yourself that question? I think I will attribute her poor decision to the power of marketing/advertising. The devil's excellent marketing deceived Eve. Not everything that is marketed and advertised is worth your time and money. Beware. I need to check what decisions and choices I'm making daily. Am I by my daily choices pointing others to Christ? If my life doesn't point people to the person of Christ, then my spiritual life needs an audit. If my life points people away from God, then my spiritual life needs check up. I need to take heed of what I eat. I become what I eat. At this age of mine, I need to cut down on the amount of soda drinks I consume. What about what I "eat" in terms of contents I consume by way of watching or listening? Whatever I do, I must avoid every kind of junk foods and junk contents of all forms & formats. In Gen 13:8 -- 10, Lot looked and saw the greener pastures of Sodom. Alas, he didn't know that that land may be greener pastures but it's going to be a snare and temptation to his convictions. I must learn that if the direction I am going is not leading to where I want to be, I can and must make a U turn! *MEDITATION* *Sin says, "It is only this once". Meanwhile, it has no plan of leaving.

*DAILY DEW 22ND/AUGUST/2021* *ALL EYES ON CHRIST JESUS* _Key Bible Text:_ *Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.* (Hebrews 12:2 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Stephen in the new testament saw Jesus at the right hand of the Father David in the old testament saw the same and said "The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand..." Peter and Paul raised the dead in the new testament Elijah and Elisha raised the dead in the old testament. Paul was caught up to the third heavens and heard things; Moses and some elders saw (a likeness of) God and sat down and ate and drank in His presence. Paul the most prolific writer in the new testament with great revelation on the new creation may have had problem with his eyesight Moses the most prolific writer in the old testament with great revelation on the old creation had powerful eyesight at age 120 years No one in the new testament is recorded to have lived beyond 120 years Many in the Old Testament lived way beyond that Paul devoted his life to the gospel and stayed unmarried, fought the good fight, finished his race and went to be with Jesus Enoch married and walked with God and was translated to heaven directly from earth. Every apostle in the new Testament died Elijah in the Old Testament went up in a whirlwind to heaven So don't confuse Eternal Life with other things, because none of the saints in the old testament had eternal life; even though God's Spirit was with them and on them. Don't get carried away by bombastic talks about immortality, portals, court sessions, bilocation, translocation and australopithecus africanus. Lol. All these things are real, so earnestly desire the best gifts, but keep your eyes on the simple solid truths of the kingdom, on Christ Jesus, rejoice that your name is written in His book of life, walk in faith and love. *MEDITATION* *Major on the major - faith, hope, and love. And all other things shall be added to you.* *#Ebele_UzoPeters* *#Sunday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Fulfilled_Expectations* *#Guest_Message* *#Hello_August* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/08/all-eyes-on-christ-jesus.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 21ST/AUGUST/2021* *MORE OF HIM, LESS OF ME* _Key Bible Text:_ *For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.* (Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT)) _Bible Insight:_ Surrender. It’s a word that many see in a negative light. A surrender occurs when a person or group has been overpowered. While that’s a true definition of it, there is more to it. To surrender also means “to give up completely or agree to forego especially in favor of another.” When we surrender to Jesus, we have the ability to agree to forego in favor of His purpose. We get to choose to be a part of His eternal game plan. Jeremiah 29:11 says that His plans are not harmful, but are good, bring hope, and a bright future. But we often hold on to our agenda as we attempt to follow Jesus. We don’t want to surrender because we are convinced that our limited vision and wisdom exceeds God’s boundless and foolproof strategy. Our full surrender to Jesus usually boils down to one question: *How much will be required of me?* And the answer is simple. *Everything.* But there’s another question that we don’t ask, but should. *What is a life surrendered to Jesus filled with?* The answer is the same. *Everything.* His peace that’s impenetrable. His joy that’s indescribable. His freedom that’s unexplainable. His love that’s outrageous. His mercy that’s generous. His grace that’s undeserving. His presence that’s soothing and His wisdom that’s reassuring. *MEDITATION:* *Think about your life. Are you mapping it out on your own or are you seeking God in everything? Think about this as you go through your day.* *#Blessing_Nwoke* *#Saturday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Fulfilled_Expectations* *#Hello_August* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/08/more-of-him-less-of-me.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
