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.

IDLENESS

IDLENESS

1 Thessalonians 4:9-12
Devotional verse: “that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands as we commanded you” (v. 11)


    It is often said, that an idle hand is the devil’s workshop. When a heart is not occupied with a meaningful assignment, then it’s bound to take junks. There is no vacuum mind, a mind is either occupied with positive or negative activities.
   Idleness is a function of lack of vision and focus. One of the reasons some have become terrible is that they are idle. Our scriptures today teach us to work and be busy in our assignment. We are to determine needed actions for our success and be busy following it. Living in idleness creates room for the enemy to interfere in your affair. Every child of God ought to be running on a vision. 

    In the realm of the spirit, idleness is a dangerous thing. Jesus gave us a parable that when the devil is casted out, he looks for an idle place to stay (Matthew 12:43-45). He will then go to take seven more spirit with himself, and then the end of that man will be terrible. Idleness makes you receive all manner of comments not meant for you. Identify your vision, keep pursuing it, and your life shall be full of great happenings. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, make my life busy for your glory.

“WHAT YOU DON’T USE, YOU WILL LOOSE”.
