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.

TAKING THE WORD

TAKING THE WORD  

Ephesians 6:10-20
Devotional: “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (V. 17)


   People can only exercise faith when they learn to take the word of God. This shows that every genuine Christian must be responsible to experience God. Irresponsible people cannot enjoy God. There is always a part for you to play (Hebrews 11:40)

Lack of result is a proof of lack of faith. One of the major responsibility of faith is to always take the word of God. To take the word means to search out and find the word for our faith. The strength for our faith is hidden in the word of God. God is a spirit and His words are spirit (John 6:63).  That is why it will take a spiritual search to find it. The real word of God is not the story you see at the surface (Proverbs 25:2; Proverbs 24:14). It can only be revealed to us by the Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 29:29).

It is when you find the word of God that you can take it. To take the word is to open your heart to receive the living word of God as written for you personally (Hebrews 4:12). This is by paying the price of meditating on the word. The living word of God is a Spirit (John 6:63). It is when you have taken the word of God that it will grow faith in you for exploit. Any time you find and take the word, faith is bound to grow in you (Romans 10:17). Whenever you find faith, you will find tangible result. That shall be your portion from now in Jesus name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, teach me to always take your word
