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.

RELEASING THE ANGELS
MATTHEW 8:5-13
DEVOTIONAL: “For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it." (V. 9)
The Bible tells us that angels are ministering spirits for those who have inherited salvation (Hebrews 1:14). They excel in strength and carry out God’s words (Psalms 103:20). This therefore, makes us to know that the ministry of the angels of God is to carry out His counsel.
As citizens of the Kingdom of God, we must understand our paths in the establishment of the kingdom on earth. When we pray, we must also understand the place of the angels of God to minister to us (Matthew 4:11). There are places you can't reach when you pray but you can send the angels of God there. They will work for you because angels are not limited in space and time (Act 12:5-7). Please, know that it is wrong to worship them or pray in their name (Revelation 22:8-9). The man in our Scripture for today said that as a man of authority, whenever he asked anyone to do anything, they would do it without questioning him. This informs us that he understood the essence of authority.
Friend, know that the angels of God are always at your service; waiting for you to give them instructions. That is why you must not play with negative words (Eccl. 5:6). Learn to always decree the release of your portion. Learn to also draw from the riches of God through angelic ministrations by faith. Do this and your prayers will be answered. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, I receive the grace to enjoy angelic ministrations.
“ANGELIC MINISTRATIONS WILL ALWAYS GIVE YOU SUPERNATURAL RESULTS”.
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.
