GOD WANTS YOU TO BE HOLY


*DAILY DEW 1ST/SEPTEMBER/2021*

*GOD WANTS YOU TO BE HOLY*

_Key Bible Text:_
*God wants you to be holy, so you should keep clear of all sexual sin* (1Thessalonians 4:3(NLT)

_Bible Insight:_

"Holy! Holy!! Holy!!!" The angels in heaven declare. 

*And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.”* (Isaiah 6:3 NIV)

This is what the angels see & declare that God is and forever Holy. 

According to Gen.1.27, *So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.*

Since God is Holy and it is written clearly in the book of Genesis that we are the image of God and His likeness, we are meant and created to be holy and live holy even as our Father in heaven is holy 

*1Pet.1.15-16 says, "But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy."*

This is what God want from us: to be Holy as He is holy, but something makes us otherwise-- SIN (Simple Instruction Neglected). It has separated us from God and makes us look as if we cannot be holy even as God is Holy and want us to be holy. 

There is a good news! Do you want to hear this good news?
You can be *HOLY* even as God is holy. 

How can this be? Jesus is the way out of sin to Holiness. He came to die for your sins. He took all your sins away & nailed it on the cross of Calvary where He was hung naked to bleed and die for you and I. 

All you need to do is to acknowledge Him and confess your sin to Him and He will give you His righteousness. He will sanctify you. 

Remember, it is only a sanctified vessel that can meet the master's use. (2Tim.2.21)

It is the joy of the Lord that everyone repent and live holy as He is holy in every respect. But you have a role to play, it is now left for you to choose a godly lifestyle, have a godly sorrow over that youthful lust, bad habit, & unforgiving heart and let your godly sorrow work out repentance that leads to salvation & love for God and holiness in the eyes of God. (2 Corinthians 7:10). 

Trust in the Lord for the rest of your life. 

*MEDITATION*
*Let God see you and be proud of you as you walk with Him without any spot or wrinkle. God loves 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

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

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
