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.

SERVING THE LORD

SERVING THE LORD         

Joshua 24:8-21
Devotional:-“And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." v15


    Serving the Lord or not serving the Lord is your choice. That is why you shall be justified or condemned by your choices. Many Christians don’t serve in the house of God. They have one reason or the other why? Probably, they see the church they attend not good enough to merit their involvement. Why don’t you volunteer to serve to effect a change? Probably they see the pastor not good enough, but why not begin to intercede that God will change him or her for good?

In our Scripture today, Joshua told the children of Israel to choose who they will serve. He only declared a bold statement before them all that, he and his family will serve the Lord. It is important you know that every man is serving something. If a man is not serving the Lord, then, he is serving the devil indirectly. Choose who you will serve. 

Please know that you are saved to serve (Ephesians 2:10). If you are serving anywhere, please serve the Lord with joy, so that you will not serve the devil (Deuteronomy 28:47-48). Do you know that Jesus is coming for His servants and not lookers in the church (John 17:26)? Service is a sign of commitment to the Lord. God is only going to honour those that serves him (John 12:26). There are special blessings for those who serve the Lord (Exodus 23:25-26). Whatever is reasons you don’t serve God, is wrong. Pray and be lead to serve Him and you will stop serving troubles. Peace 

Prayer: Lord, make me your servant forever 

“A MAN WHO IS NOT SERVING GOD, WILL BE USELESS TO HIMSELF”

ALTERNATIVES

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

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

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.
