*DAILY DEW 16/OCTOBER/2023* *THE SAFETY MEASURE OF REPETITION* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe."* (Philippians 3:1 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ When you bring back to your mouth the food particles you have already swallowed, you are said to have regurgitated. Pls don't feel irritated. When an animal, like ruminants regurgitate, there is however nothing out of place about it. "Ruminants regurgitate their food as a normal part of digestion." And the information continues, "During their idle time, they chew the regurgitated food (cud) and swallow it again, which increases digestibility by reducing particle size." This is actually something that explains what meditation does to knowledge assimilation, digestion and retention. This also explains why meditation leads to revelation, that is, a state of intense understanding of and insight into God's words with practical effects and relatable impact! Meditation, however, is not a one way practice. Most times we understand meditation to mean staying alone to ponder over a body of knowledge. While this is correct, it is not the only way of meditation. As a matter of fact, anytime the same body of knowledge is being repeated, there is a sense in which meditation is already taking place. When you sing a song repeatedly, there is a sense in which the truth contained therein is undergoing a meditation process in your mind, especially when you ponder on the words being sung. When you are listening to the same or similar message or even teaching it or discussing about it, you are actually regurgitating those body of knowledge and thereby enhancing comprehension and revelation. Never shy away from or get tired of hearing/teaching/discussing the same body of knowledge over and over again. That is the way of meditation. And that is the way of comprehension and revelation, needless to say, mastery. _MEDITATION:_ *Some of us learnt to listen to messages that blessed us till there was no edification left in the tapes. Lol. Of course, that's a figure of speech. But see, that's how to listen to teachings. We listen till we start quoting it verbatim. Once we remove laziness towards spiritual things from our lives, we make progress!!* -- Adebowale Ibukun Tosin *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,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 15/OCTOBER/2023* *Connecting Men To Christ* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ."* (1 Corinthians 11:1 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ The goal of ministry is to connect men to Christ. The goal of Christian growth is to live connected to Christ. The goal of evangelism is to reconnect men to Christ. The goal of discipleship is to groom men to live connected to Christ in all things and to teach them how to get others to live connected to Christ. Your connection to Christ is all that matters. This connection must be solid, strong and intact at all times. One of the things that threatens our connectivity to Christ is actually sin. When we indulge in sin, we have entered into an area of poor connection and therefore we suffer a temporary disconnect or loss of connectivity or some poor transmission of peace of mind, discernment or hearing from God, etc However, once we confess our sins and move back to sure grounds, we regain connectivity and enjoy unhindered connection once again. Your life must become a mobile WiFi or hotspot that gives men access to be reconnected to Christ connectivity. It is dangerous to indulge sinful activities that threatens to disconnect the flow of connectivity with Christ. Practice staying connected by staying close to Christ's words, Christ's disciples and Christ's works. _MEDITATION:_ *It is not the number that connects to your ministry that matters, it is the number that your ministry connects to Christ that matters!* *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,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 11/OCTOBER/2023* *TRUE TEST OF FOLLOWING JESUS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me."* (John 12:32 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ Strange things are happening more and more everyday. Wars. Suffering. Wickedness. Inhumanity. Etc. And the only hope still remains JESUS. Dear Believers; do education, do business, do politics, do entertainment, do socials; but above all DO JESUS. As it gets darker, shine brighter. Pray for the world, and preach the gospel. Whenever you meet people, make sure that even if you have no silver or gold, you can say "Such as I have, give I unto you.....take salvation, take redemption, take justification, take love - God's love, take healing, take repentance, take transformation, take this holiness, take this light of life, take life" Live for the kingdom. Believe in the gospel. Lift up Jesus. He is the only hope. Of men. _MEDITATION:_ *Jesus has been lifted up to die on the cross. Jesus has been lifted up by resurrection from death. Now it is time to lift Jesus up by preaching this Gospel so He can draw men unto salvation!* - EDJ *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,2023* ❤ (Join us to felicitate the Editor-in-chief of the Daily Dew Devotional, David Joshua Egbochuo Esq. on the occasion of his birth anniversary on the 11th of October 🥳) 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 10/OCTOBER/2023* *TRUE TEST OF FOLLOWING JESUS* _Key Bible Text:_ *"And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him."* (Mark 1:17-18 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ In the final analysis, the evidence of truly following Jesus, is actually fishing men! The opposite is also true. The absence of ability to fish for men is the evidence of lack of correct following of Jesus. You can't change this truth. You can only accept it or reject it but it is the truth nonetheless. Since you claimed to be a follower of Jesus, how many souls have you caught for His kingdom? Whereas some, like Simon & Andrew must leave their nets (which represented their day to day source of income) to become full time fishers of men. Others, however, only need to leave their nets temporarily but often to go fishing for men! The best is even to make your "nets" a type of bait for fishing men! I therefore agree with Pastor Ebele UzoPeters as follows: "Every Christian should learn how to desire to see souls saved. Every unsaved person is a mission field regardless of who they are. Our great quest is their salvation ABOVE ALL ELSE. Above celebrity status, influence, money, fashion, science, power. Whatever. The SOUL is what matters most. And without Jesus, it is NOTHING. What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul? Nothing. We must be kingdom minded." _MEDITATION:_ *What shall it profit a Christian if he gains the whole world and wins no souls into the Kingdom? Nothing.We must be kingdom minded"!* - EDJ *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,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 9/OCTOBER/2023* *NOT BY CONFESSION ALONE* _Key Bible Text:_ *"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."* (Romans 10:9-10 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ We believers are fond of confessing hyperfalutin confessions when God has asked us to do something simple God says "Go and apologise" or "Talk to your colleague today about Me" Five weeks pass by, and nothing except "I AM THE HEAD AND NOT THE TAIL! THE ...I AM SUPERNATURALLY ENGRACED TO PROSPER..." Brother, stop making noise. Obedience is better than confession. _MEDITATION:_ *There is always obedience inside every "believing". The sign of "believing" is not only in confessing but in obeying! Those who obey the Lord whom they call, shall be saved. Not those who call him, "Lord, Lord" but do not do the things the Lord says! That's not "believing"; that's deceiving!* - EDJ *#Ebele_UzoPeters* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_OCTOBER,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.
