ALL EYES ON CHRIST JESUS


*DAILY DEW 22ND/AUGUST/2021*

*ALL EYES ON CHRIST JESUS*

_Key Bible Text:_
*Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.* (Hebrews 12:2 (KJV))

_Bible Insight:_

Stephen in the new testament saw Jesus at the right hand of the Father 
David in the old testament saw the same and said "The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand..."

Peter and Paul raised the dead in the new testament 
Elijah and Elisha raised the dead in the old testament.

Paul was caught up to the third heavens and heard things;  
Moses and some elders saw (a likeness of) God and sat down and ate and drank in His presence.

Paul the most prolific writer in the new testament with great revelation on the new creation may have had problem with his eyesight 
Moses the most prolific writer in the old testament with great revelation on the old creation had powerful eyesight at age 120 years

No one in the new testament is recorded to have lived beyond 120 years
Many in the Old Testament lived way beyond that

Paul devoted his life to the gospel and stayed unmarried, fought the good fight, finished his race and went to be with Jesus 
Enoch married and walked with God and was translated to heaven directly from earth.

Every apostle in the new Testament died
Elijah in the Old Testament went up in a whirlwind to heaven

So don't confuse Eternal Life with other things, because none of the saints in the old testament had eternal life; even though God's Spirit was with them and on them. Don't get carried away by bombastic talks about immortality, portals, court sessions, bilocation, translocation and australopithecus africanus. Lol.

All these things are real, so earnestly desire the best gifts, but keep your eyes on the simple solid truths of the kingdom, on Christ Jesus, rejoice that your name is written in His book of life, walk in faith and love.

*Major on the major - faith, hope, and love. And all other things shall be added to you.*

WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL

Image
*DAILY DEW 11TH/DECEMBER/2021* *WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL* _Key Bible Text:_ *And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!* (Romans 10:15 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ In the old testament, an adulterer or adulteress was condemned to be stoned to death before God. That was the law. In the new testament, Jesus said to an adulteress "I do not condemn you, go and sin no more" Believe me, the law had not changed. The penalty for adultery was still death. And Jesus did not come to abolish the law, or change the law. He came to FULFILL it. So He had the right to tell her to go because He was going to bear the penalty for her adultery. He had taken her condemnation upon Himself. He was going to die for her. And so He could tell her to GO....and sin no more. Brothers and sisters; welcome to the Gospel.  _MEDITATION:_ *"The real gospel makes a poor man

What's Your Focus?*

Image
*DAILY DEW 19TH/JULY/2021* *What's Your Focus?*  _Key Bible Text:_ *For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. As one who reckons, he says to you, eat and drink, yet his heart is not with you [but is grudging the cost].* (Proverbs 23:7 (AMP))  _Bible Insight:_ I’ve learnt one thing in life so far: what you focus on somehow expands. Focus on your business, invest your thoughts and imaginations on how to grow it, talk about it with your spouse and friends; and gradually but surely, it will expand.  On the other hand, spend your time on every gist in town and watch the uselessness of your life expand. You will know more gists and gossips and, by the law of attraction, you will attract people like you and your life will nosedive or at best stagnate.  The human mind is powerful to the extent that we focus and whether the focus is to the left or the right, your mind does not care. It will give you back, in multiple folds, what you are steadily planting in it.  This is why the B

As Jesus or As yourself?*

Image
*DAILY DEW 2ND/DECEMBER/2021* *As Jesus or As yourself?* _Key Bible Text:_ * A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.* (John 13:34 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ One of the most outstanding things about the Christmas season is the birth of Christ. While we must remember or even celebrate this blessed season, we must never forget the spirit behind God's move and decision in sending His son Jesus. The answer to the why of Jesus' coming to earth is simply, LOVE. John 3:16 may have been abused but it cannot be overused or overemphasized. Jesus is God's decision born out of love. "For God so loved", he couldn't help but "gave His only begotten son". And even that had a reason, "that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish but have everlasting life". So God's love in sending Jesus was not exactly "reckless" but absolutely intentional and expedien
