*DAILY DEW 16TH/MAY/2021* *The Supreme Task* (III) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."* (Mark 16:15 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Why is it that so many of us are local in our outlook? Why do we think only of ourselves? Is God more interested in these black people living here than He is in those yellow people living there? Is He more concerned about those brown people than He is about those who are white? Is it because we are so near-sighted that we do not have a world vision? When I was leaving Jamaica, I stepped into a plane. First of all, I saw only the local surroundings. Then as I rose higher, I saw fields and farm houses. As I got higher still, I was able to see valleys and mountains in the distance. Finally, I could look down upon the entire Island of Jamaica, lying like a jewel in the bosom of the Caribbean; and if I could have gone high enough, I could have seen all the islands of the West Indies at a single glance. God, from His vantage point, can look down upon an entire world and see every country, continent and island at the same time. If we could only get far away, we could see the world as Jesus saw it. But some of us have never travelled and we have never listened to those who have travelled. Why is it that we think that we are the people and that we are more important than any of the other peoples of the world? Why should we be local in our outlook? Why should we think of ourselves as more important than any of the other peoples of the world? Why should God be more interested in us than in other nations? Oh that He would give us a world vision, that we might work for the evangelization of the entire world, the world for which Christ died, and that we might see the world as He sees it.

*DAILY DEW 15TH/MAY/2021* *THE RELATIONSHIP GIVER* _Key Bible Text:_ *“The Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone’”* (Genesis 2:18) _Bible Insight:_ God made the sun and the moon and the sky and said, *“It is good.”* He made water and dry land and said, *“It is good.”* He made plants and trees, and then, for me, all the ingredients for a delicious soul-food dinner, and said, *“It is good.”* Then He made the sea creatures like Willy and Nemo and Flounder, and all the wild animals like Timon, Pumbaa, and Simba(Sorry..I love cartoons😁), and said, *“It’s good.”* When He made Adam, He said, *“It’s very good.”* It was all good. But pretty soon God said for the first time, *“It’s not good.”* It’s not that God had messed up—He never messes up. Something was missing. “The Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone’ ” (Genesis 2:18). This principle is true for all Adam’s children as well. It’s not good for you to be alone. It’s not good for me to be alone. When we set up a life that is guarded and gated, the enemy comes to attack us. When we’re isolated, we’re at more risk of listening to lies about who we are and coming to believe them as truth. We all need relationship with people who can remind us of the truth and dispel the falsehood, who can show us some of the love our hearts need, who can help us along our way. God knows this. And that’s why God wants relationship for us. Is it hard for you to believe that a major part of God’s plan for your life involves relationship? He wants you to have a best friend, even though the last one stabbed you in the back. He wants you to have pastors and mentors who create a safe place to grow and become. He wants you to be in a marriage that works and is marked by love, honor, respect, and fun. Granted, your past relationships might have been, well...the opposite of that. But God is a Redeemer, so He can take whatever is broken and jacked up and work it for your good. MEDITATION: *Spend some time thanking God for your existing relationships and asking Him to guide you into new ones that will help you fulfill His purposes in your life* *#Blessing_Nwoke* *#Saturday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Wonders_of_Grace* *#Hello_May* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 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/2021/05/the-relationship-giver.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 14TH/MAY/2021* *BEFORE THE PERSON* _Key Bible Text:_ *So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.* (Genesis 1:27 (NIV)) _Bible Insight:_ Before there was ever a person on this earth and in fact before there was even an earth there was already relationship. How’s that? It’s because God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit existed as three persons in one. Now, I can’t totally explain the Trinity. Nobody can. It’s real, but how it works goes beyond our ability to comprehend. The thing is, the Bible makes it clear that the three persons of the Trinity have dwelled together forever. *Meaning relationship was, is, and forever will be.* Cool, huh? Maybe the coolest thing about all this (for us anyway) is that humanity was created out of that everlasting relationship. The Trinity had a conversation and agreed, “Let us make human beings in our own image” (Genesis 1:26). The Trinity didn’t need us. They were already perfect, complete, and fulfilled within Themselves. But out of the overflow of Their love, They decided to create humans, both male and female. The first human, Adam, lived in the Garden of Eden with God as his companion from his first day. In other words, he had a relationship with God before there was even one other human to know. The picture we get in Genesis 2—3 is that God and Adam were good friends. They would hang together in the garden, talk about this and that, and take walks to look at the shiny new plants and animals while enjoying the cool evening breeze together. All by themselves, just the two of them. Here’s what we need to get out of this: No matter what other relationships we have (or don’t have), all of us can have a relationship with God. Through Christ, He invites us into the same kind of connection He has within the Trinity--a loving, giving relationship. So dear friend, make Jesus your first love today!
