*DAILY DEW 25/MARCH/2025* *Replacing Those Who Fall Out* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection."* (Acts 1: 22 (KJV)) _Bible Insight_ In Acts 1:22, Peter emphasizes the importance of selecting a witness who has been with Jesus from the beginning of His ministry, specifically from the baptism of John. This requirement ensures that the new apostle has a deep understanding of Jesus' teachings, miracles, and ultimately, His resurrection. By choosing someone who has been a part of Jesus' inner circle, the disciples can ensure continuity and authenticity in their witness. The lesson from this verse is the importance of personal experience and firsthand knowledge in sharing the Gospel. The disciples recognized that a genuine witness must have a deep, personal understanding of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. This principle remains relevant today, as believers are called to share their personal experiences and testimonies of God's work in their lives. Furthermore, this verse highlights the significance of continuity and succession in the spread of the Gospel. The disciples were intentional about selecting a new apostle who could carry on the legacy of Jesus' teachings and ministry. This mindset is essential for the church today, as we strive to pass on the baton of faith to future generations and ensure that the Gospel message continues to spread. _MEDITATION:_ *"In replacing leaders, we must select faithful men who understand the mandate we are called into"* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Mr_Positive_Impact* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_MARCH,2025* ❤ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
