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.

SAVED TO WORK

SAVED TO WORK

Ephesians 2:1-10
Devotional: "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” (V. 10)


    The first church experienced great power of God. The Holy Spirit worked mighty things around them. But they so much enjoyed the fellowship of each other and were staying regularly together, eat together and possibly lived together. Not too long, God had to orchestrate persecution against them for the purpose of scattering them (James 1:1; Genesis 11:8). They had to work through many places and take the good news to the end of the earth through their good works. 

As believer today, we should realize that we are saved, recreated in Christ Jesus for the good work for which Christ saved us. True believers are the ones who are manifesting the glory of God through their lives and day to day activities.

Friend, the salvation of your soul has brought you out of darkness to stop representing darkness, but light in your deeds not just in claim (1 Peter 2:9) God expect you to work in His will that you may be the manifestation of His beauty and glory. So many things God has provided that it is as we work it out that it will manifest (Hebrew 11:40). It's time to rise and take over that office and business by working in divine instructions. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, let your good work begin in my life from now.

“ONLY THOSE WHO CAN WORK TO PROVE THEIR SALVATION WILL NOT LOSE IT”
