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.

ORIGIN OF SICKNESS
Genesis 3:8-19
Devotional Verse: “To the woman He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; in pain you shall bring forth children; your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you” (V. 16).
The word “Pain” was mentioned in the bible for the first time in Genesis 3:16. This was when the first affliction of sickness was released on the sons of men. When God made the first man at creation, there was no record of sickness and pain. They were not creatures of weaknesses. They were made to be healthy forever. Don’t forget they were made like God. (Gen. 1:27). God is a healer and He cannot be sick. (Exodus 15:26).
Adam and Eve were made without any fear. The spirit of any affliction could not come near them, even the devil was afraid of them that he has to come through the woman to deceive them to sin against God, it was then, pain began.
Friend, Jesus has come to destroy the power of the curses that inflict man with sickness. (Gal 3:13-14). Jesus carried our sin on the cross and by His strive we are healed. (Isaiah 53:4). It was the word that came out of the mouth of God that releases pain on human. But the devil is taking advantage to continue this till today, even when Jesus has destroyed that spirit. Jesus has come to speak the word of healing into our lives (Luke 7:7, Matthew 5:34). So, sickness has no legal right over your life anymore. Learn to cast the spirit of sickness off your life always. (Mark 16:17-18). And you will be free from sickness. Peace!
Prayer: I reject sickness in my body in Jesus name.
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.
