I AM RIGHT NO MATTER WHAT😌?


*DAILY DEW 20TH/MARCH/2021*

*I AM RIGHT NO MATTER WHAT😌?*

*Key Bible Text:_*
*But on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. _So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast._* (Genesis 4:5 NIV)

*_Bible Insight:_*
We all know the story of Cain and Abel and how God rejected Cain and his offering and accepted Abel and his offering. Was it because God liked meat more than vegetables? Read this again.... *God rejected Cain first before his offering* 

1John 3:12 explains why Cain killed his brother and why God rejected him and his offering. God is not psyched by our offerings but rather he is interested in our actions; our being. It wasn't because of the offering he gave that God rejected him, he could have still given his all with that same attitude and God will still reject. The main point here is not really about what Cain did or didn't do, the main thing is how this relates to us today. Instead of getting angry because God didn't grant you your heart desires but granted the one person you think is a "sinner" who has not even done half of what you have rendered to God, have you stopped to asked God what am I not getting right? Or are you just assuming that you are perfectly fine and you are right in everything? Or have you comforted yourself by saying it's not God's time yet? What if it is and your actions are not right to be accepted by Him? 

Cain thought he was right by giving a sacrifice of his own sweat and yet God rejected and accepted Abel who was just feeding his animal with the very food that he(Cain) planted? Who does that? He was furious and didn't see that he was wrong. Don't be blinded by your sacrifices to God as we see in 1Sam 15:22. God is more interested in you and your obedience to Him than what you have to offer. When you are wrong, humble yourself and rule over sin instead of getting mad at God and others and letting sin devour you. 

*MEDITATION:*
_Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous._ (1 John 3:12 NIV)

FINANCING MISSIONS (II)

Image
*DAILY DEW 21ST/DECEMBER/2021* *FINANCING MISSIONS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.* (Galatians 6:2, 10 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ How do we get it?  Perhaps if I were to tell you how we do NOT get it, it would help. We do not raise it by means of suppers, bazaars, concerts, rummage sales, or oyster stews. Not because I am against these methods, but because they will not work. What does a business man do when he runs across a method that will not work? He scraps it, does he not?  Now listen. I am responsible, humanly speaking, for the personal support of three hundred and fifty missionaries. Every month of my life I have to get more than $25,000, or humanly speaking, they will starve.  How many of you business men carry as heavy a responsibility? What would you do if you had to get $25...

THE WAY OF THE CROSS (II)

Image
*DAILY DEW 16TH/SEPTEMBER/2021* *THE WAY OF THE CROSS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.* (1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ *Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from both the penalty and the power of sin.* (1 Peter 2:24 New American Standard Bible) What are the benefits that accrue to us from following the cross, or carrying the cross to follow Jesus? In answering this, we need to understand that it is the death and resurrection of Jesus on the cross that gives the cross its power.  "1. Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from the penalty of sin." This is clearly the meaning of the words, “He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree.” By using the word “tree” rather than “cross,” Peter no doubt had in mind Deuteronomy 21:22-23, where it pre...

TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS*

Image
*DAILY DEW 24TH/DECEMBER/2021* *TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."* (Job 13:15 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ It's an uphill task trying to understand God's plan, especially when we can't make logical sense of what we see happening to and around us. But we aren't instructed to understand His plans, but to TRUST HIM and be secure in the knowledge that He's working everything to ultimately turn out for our good.  God won't mismanage your life. Trust Him with it and be willing and quick to obey His instructions even when they don't fit into your parameter of what's logical. One of the truest form of worship we can give to God is to TRUST Him - leaning our entire existence on the unchangeability of His nature and counsels. ❤ _MEDITATION:_ *In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.* (Psalms 71:1 (KJV)) *#Chibuikem_...
