APPLE OF HIS EYE

APPLE OF HIS EYE Zechariah 2:4-13 Devotional:- “...for he who touches you touches the apple or pupil of His eye” (V. 8) AMPL      One of the most honourable and highly protected parts of our body is our eye. It is highly protected because of its importance and delicacy. The eye is the light of the body (Matthew 6:22, Luke 11:34). A man without sight is blocked without light. He will need to learn to see with the inner eye. Because of the importance of the eye, everyone takes time to wash it with all care and caution. When things are coming against it, wise people will always avoid it. When something little enters the eye, we become restless until it is removed. The truth is that you cannot allow anyone to touch your eye. It is a reflex action for you to close it at such times.

SANCTIFIED

SANCTIFIED             

John 17:9-19
Devotional: -“Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth” (V. 17) NKJV


    Knowledge sets free. Knowledge equips and builds strong; build courage and confidence. Much more, the knowledge of the truth do sanctify. The word ‘sanctification’ means separation unto the Lord. It means, brought to the side of God. It means, made to be only a vessel of the Lord. The power in the word of God translates people from darkness to light (1 Peter 2:9).
 
   Jesus was praying for the church and He asked the father to sanctify us by the truth. This is because when someone hears the truth and gave himself to it, he will discover the right and the wrong information. When such person allows the Spirit of the word, then, his/her soul shall be converted to the Lord (Psalms. 19:7; Psalms 51:13). The more you give yourself to the study of the word God, the more you experience the convention to the side of the Lord. Christians who are found doing ungodly things are those who refuse to give their heart to the truth of the word of God (Romans 1:18-25).
 
   The truth is that, it is the truth of the word of God that sanctifies us and purify us unto God. That is why a Christian that is not given to studying the word of God, either personally or with the church will not be for the Lord. At the point of temptation he will discover he lacks the stamina to stand. You only belong to God as you give yourself to the words of God. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to give myself to the study of your word.
 
“YOU WILL ALWAYS BE POSSESSED BY THE SPIRIT OF WHAT YOU KEEP HEARING”
