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.

MARY’S CHOICE

MARY’S CHOICE    

Luke 10:38-42 
Devotional- “But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her." (Vs. 42)


    There are two sisters, Mary and Martha. Jesus Christ the King of kings and the Lord of lords visited their home one day. Both Mary and Martha were excited to have this great guest. Martha busied herself preparing food and setting the tables for Jesus. Mary was sited at the feet of Jesus to listen to every word that Jesus had to say. Mary gave priority to the word of God. She chooses to feed on the bread of life (Deuteronomy 8:3). The Bible says she sat at Jesus feet concentrating on Him and not allowing any form of distraction. Her choice brought her the most needed blessing.

 Martha was not wrong to have engaged herself in preparation of food for Jesus. This is because nothing can take the place of food. But the food of the spirit, the word of God is more nourishing. Jesus says “one thing is needful”. Needful means important and indispensable. The word of God is needful. They are life to those who find them (Proverbs 4:20-22). 

When some people are in Church, they don’t realize they are in the presence of Jesus. Instead of settling down to receive the word, they will keep themselves busy doing other things. Such people are missing the most needed thing and such will always lack the blessings of the Lord. You will not miss the most important blessings of life in Jesus name. Peace!

Prayers: Lord, give me understanding of the importance of your word for my life

“THE WORD OF GOD IS THE POWER OF GOD TO MEET ALL YOUR NEED”
