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.

A HUNDRED FOLD

A HUNDRED FOLD           

Read: Mark 10:29-31
Who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time - houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions - and in the age to come, eternal life (Vs. 30).


    The kingdom of God is a kingdom of covenants. A covenant is a legal agreement sealed by blood. One of the reasons Jesus shed His blood was to seal up the word of God for the benefit of all believers (Heb. 9:16-18). One of such covenants which believers have in the word of God is a hundred fold covenants.
 
    Jesus says, whatever is sown to the Lord and His kingdom will come back in a hundred fold. This is an assurance to give us rest of mind whenever we obey Him. A Hundred fold is a 100% return. It’s not common to find a sure business of a 100% return in this world but that is our heritage in God. It’s an everlasting covenant. It is not the type that will change with inflation or economic recession.
 
    That is why you should let your faith in God make you give with joy. (2 Corinthians 9:7). Give bountiful offerings and sow your tithes with joy in anticipation of God’s blessings (2 Corinthians 9:6). If God has been faithful from the ages past, He will be faithful even now and to the end. Your reward will surely come in Jesus’ name. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, let my reward come
 
“IN GOD, NO SOWING IN FAITH IS LOST”
