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.

MAN OF PEACE

MAN OF PEACE        

Matt 5:1-12
Devotional:-“Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.” v.9


     For us as God’s kingdom citizen, peaceful life is a commandment (Hebrew 12:14). We are commanded to be at peace with all men. So, to obey or not to obey is a matter of choice. People are bound to provoke us to anger and wrought. Yet, our choice of peace will keep us in the pursuit of peace.

In the scripture we read today, Jesus said those who make peace are blessed. The peacemakers are those who choose to be at peace with others around them. Because of their choice, they go extra mile in creating peace in all their relationship with others. 

In the other side, you will notice people around you who are not interested in peace. They feel that trouble is the best way to claim their right. The bible says, they do not know the way of peace (Isaiah 59:8). The truth is that someone cannot be troublesome and have peace all around. You cannot give what you don’t have. As a God’s kingdom citizen, your choice of peace makes you have peace in all area of your life. Since you have made your choice of peace, it will cost you holding to the prince of peace in all situations (Isaiah 9:6). You need to always think of peace and be at peace with yourself and others (Prov. 23:7). If your heart is full of peace, your expression will always be with peace (Matthew 12:34). And your life will be full of peace. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, ordain me for your peace forever.
