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.

CHOICE OF KNOWLEDGE

CHOICE OF KNOWLEDGE

Ecclesiastes 1:12-18
Devotional- “And I set my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; this burdensome task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be exercised.” V 13

    Gaining knowledge in this world is also a choice. The truth is that knowledge when properly handled produces strength (Proverbs 24:5). Ignorant will make anyone a failure at the end. That is why as a kingdom citizen, you must give yourself to knowledge. Choose the part of knowledge that you may succeed. 

In our Scripture of today, Solomon the king told us of how he gave himself to searching out in the school of Wisdom. This is seeking to know what makes life work. Most people don’t ever want to share what they know that has helped them, only few who are wise to help others. They rather want to stay up and intimidate the rest with their achievement. 

If you choose the part of knowledge there is nothing any one is doing in greatness that you cannot do. Just be humble to learn. Get closer to those who can show you. If not, seek for books that are relevant to educate you in your profession or career. No one can stop you from knowing when you can seek it. It is not out of place if you decide to go back to school. Gather relevant books and study them. And your strength to rise will come.

Prayer: Lord, give me grace to choose the part of knowledge
