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.

POWER OF THE EYE

POWER OF THE EYE

Matthew 6:22-23 
Devotional Verse:- "The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light” (Vs. 22)

 


    It is the lifestyle of every citizen of the kingdom of God to walk in light. While light gives understanding, darkness brings confusion and stagnancy. The Bible calls God the father of light (James 1:17) and calls us the children of light (Eph. 5:8). Light is about the illumination, brightness of our hearts and the clarity of our understanding. The eye the Bible is referring to is majorly our inner eyes by which we have the understanding of knowledge and the wisdom for living. Just like the physical eyes, when you open it, you will see clearly, but when you close it, all you will see will be darkness.
 
    Jesus is therefore saying that we should always allow our inner eyes to access light. By this, our whole body will be full of light.
 
  This light is the understanding that comes through the revelation of the word of God (Psalms 119:130). We gain light by seeking knowledge of the truth of our situations and then have clarity of the understanding of what to do. That is why a child of God does not read the Bible just to become a professor or a preacher but to gain light. This is the secret of our rising in life (Isa. 60:1). You will be unstoppable in Jesus name. Peace! 
 
Prayer: Lord, show me the light for my progress.

“YOU CAN’T RUN WITH SPEED IN THE NIGHT MORE THAN THE BRIGHTNESS OF YOUR HEAD LAMP”.
