*DAILY DEW 25/DECEMBER/2023* *Levels of Taking Over Nations* (VII) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."* (Matthew 24:12-13 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ 7. Enduring till the End: Divine End to End encryption. According to wikipedia, End-to-end encryption is a private communication system in which only communicating users can participate. As such, no one, including the communication system provider, telecom providers, Internet providers or malicious actors, can access the cryptographic keys needed to converse. Well, what has that got to do with taking over Nations forcefully!? In the end, it is ultimately being saved from this body of death that matters. (Romans 8:23) The scriptures teaches that *he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.* So there is need for endurance. (See Acts 14:22) There is an end to aim for. And there is a salvation in that end. (Heb 3:6) So after we have done all to ensure we take nations at all levels, this end, must be carefully aimed for and secured. The end to end encryption ensures there is no eavedroping by a third party, or in another sense no interruption of the communication. We too must ensure that in between the point we started believing and following Christ and the point we get to heaven or to enjoy eternal life with him forever, we keep the faith, goal and endurance till the very end. To take over nations forcefully, is not a sprint but a marathon. And it is not a life of comfort or conformity with the common. It is a life of being comfortable with the uncomfortable and a life of non conformity with the generally acceptable. And while at it, we must have our eyes on the finish line. *1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (KJV) Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.* *And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.* *I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:* *But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.* _MEDITATION:_ *It may be helpful to go back and reflect on all the entire teaching on Taking Over Nations Forcefully!* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_DECEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 24/DECEMBER/2023* *Levels of Taking Over Nations* (VI) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also."* (2 Timothy 2:2 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ 6. Enlisting to win others This flows from a lifestyle of service. You cannot serve successfully until you begin to win others who will do likewise. This is not just winning souls per se. This is "winning" soul winners. The difference is the same found in fishing and raising fishermen. This is the level of taking over nations where you rise to be like a captain over other soldiers who are bent on winning souls. Until we get to this level, we still have a long way to go. This should actually be the goal we all should aim for. To come to a point where we don't just go out to win souls but we raise others to join us in doing the same. This is God's wisdom in taking over nations. Jesus came, not just as a soul winner but as a winner of soul winners. No wonder he said, "follow me and I will make you fishers of men". If we are maturing in being like Christ, we need to get to a point where we can say the same or at least live the same way-- that when men follow you, they become fishers of men! Amen _MEDITATION:_ *When you are still at the level of struggling to win souls, remember that the goal is not just to win souls but to win soul winners.

*DAILY DEW 23/DECEMBER/2023* *Levels of Taking Over Nations* (V) _Key Bible Text:_ *"Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord"* (Romans 12:11 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ 5. Commitment to serve secured One of the greatest marks of a person who will take over nations forcefully is being a service oriented. Service is the language of this kingdom. There is nothing like saved to sit and watch others serve. Every kingdom high flyer is characterized by a hunger towards service. We don't serve because we are appreciated, we serve because we are designed to. We don't served because we are encouraged to, we serve because we are born into a life of service. Therefore, if we must take over nations, we must serve passionately, consistently and strategically. When you are sold out into a lifestyle of kingdom service, you will attract and raise others who will do likewise. *"And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also."* 2 Timothy 2:2 (KJV) In this kingdom, like Christ, we are born servants. That is why we will be welcomed into heaven thus:- *"His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord."* (Matthew 25:21 (KJV)) _MEDITATION:_ *Embrace a lifestyle of service or lose relevance in this kingdom.* #Selah *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_DECEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 22/DECEMBER/2023* *Levels of Taking Over Nations* (IV) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And many of those who had practiced curious, magical arts collected their books and [throwing them, book after book, on the pile] burned them in the sight of everybody. When they counted the value of them, they found it amounted to 50,000 pieces of silver (about $9,300)."* (Acts 19:19(Amplified)) _Bible Insight:_ 4. Exeriencing Transformation of lives in daily repentance & experience of growth We cannot speak of taking over nations just by corrections or by winning souls or by working miracles alone. For these to really achieve the fullness of purpose, it must translate to transformation of lives. In this Acts 19:19 we find a people who did not only claim to have been saved but openly burn their past life as it were. You cannot hold unto the old and the new. If anyone be in Christ, the newness of life must chase out the old man's life & ways. The old become counted as haven been crucified with Christ. At this point, you seek to please God above all else. And in seeking to please God, you are not only willing to repent but ready to do so immediately or as soon as necessary. Repentance is to transformation what a key is to a door. You cannot become tranformed until you embrace the key of repantance. There can never be correct christian growth until one is willing to take repentance as a daily medication. Not repentance of repeating promises and apologies that you have litle or no commitment to actually stop endulging in. _MEDITATION:_ *Repentance is for the unsaved and the saved alike. And the one who needs more repentance is the saved.* #Selah *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_DECEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.

*DAILY DEW 21/DECEMBER/2023* *Levels of Taking Over Nations* (III) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen."* (Mark 16:20 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ 3. Manifesting Signs and wonders To take over nations, we must be like Christ in terms of being agents of the supernatural power of God. We cannot afford to shy away from this. *"For our gospel came not unto you in word only, BUT ALSO IN POWER, AND IN THE HOLY GHOST, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake."* (1 Thessalonians 1:5 (KJV)) This is however not something we do by our own power. *"The Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs"* Our part is to do the work, and the Lord will work with us and confirm His Word with signs. It is one of the ways, we as co-workers with God, assure ourselves that God indeed is with us. It is also one of the ways that those who observe us or hear about us, come to conviction, that we have been sent by God. Even Jesus urged those listening and watching him during His days in the flesh (while he was on earth) as follows:- John 14:10-14 (KJV) *"Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."* *"Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake."* *"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."* *"And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son."* *"If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it."* _MEDITATION:_ *"The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,....And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men."* (Acts 14:9, 11 (KJV)) *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_DECEMBER,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
