THE POWER OF CHOICE* (I)


*DAILY DEW 28TH/AUGUST/2021*

*THE POWER OF CHOICE* (I)

_Key Bible Text:_
*I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:* (Deuteronomy 30:19 (KJV))

_Bible Insight:_

*_When you are born, you will look like your parents, but when you are "done" you will resemble your choices._*

Choices have consequences either good or bad. Decisions determine destiny. Why didn't Eve choose the tree of life? Have you asked yourself that question? I think I will attribute her poor decision to the power of marketing/advertising. The devil's excellent marketing deceived Eve. Not everything that is marketed and advertised is worth your time and money. Beware.

I need to check what decisions and choices I'm making daily. Am I by my daily choices pointing others to Christ? If my life doesn't point people to the person of Christ, then my spiritual life needs an audit. If my life points people away from God, then my spiritual life needs check up.

I need to take heed what you eat. I become what I eat. At this age of mine, I need to cut down on the amount of soda drinks I consume. What about what I "eat" in terms of contents I consume by way of watching or listening? Whatever I do, I must avoid every kind of junk foods and junk contents.

In Gen 13:8 -- 10, Lot looked and saw the greener pastures of Sodom. Alas, he didn't know that that land may be greener pastures but it's going to be a snare and temptation to his convictions. I must learn that if the direction I am  going is not leading to where I want to be, I can and must make a U turn!

*Sin says, "It is only this once" Meanwhile, it has no plans of leaving. Say NO, and you won't be trapped.*

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
