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.

KINGS OF THE KINGDOM
Revelation 5: 8-14 Read: “And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth” (V. 10)
In the kingdom of God, Jesus is the King of kings, but there are kings (Revelation 19:16). These are the ones who stand for Him in places on the earth. These are His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20). These are His representatives on the earth. These are the ones who rules over the forces of darkness by faith in Christ Jesus (Mark 16:17-18). These are the ones who are taking territory for Jesus. This office is given to all true believers who is taking their place in God. They know their position in God (Daniel 11:32). They know the authority they have in Christ over devil, sickness, sorrow and all the works of the enemy.
Friend, it is either you are ruling in Christ or you are been ruled by the enemy. The truth is that Jesus has given authority to all believers to be able to take dominion over the forces of life (Luke 10:19). If you are been dominated in any way, it is because you are not dominating. If you are a child of God, understand that you are to take charge for God wherever you are.
Make up your mind to join the rulers in Christ Jesus. This is by seeking to know Him (Daniel 11:32). Stop been a nominal Christian who just attend the church on Sundays. That way, the enemy will cunningly be ruling in your affairs. Draw near to Christ and He will draw near to you. (James 4:8). Willingly give yourself to learning His word to know Him (Philippians 3:10). Then you shall be a sign, a wonder and unstoppable in your world. Peace!
ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans? If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.
THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
