APPLE OF HIS EYE

APPLE OF HIS EYE Zechariah 2:6-10  Devotional:- “For thus says the LORD of hosts: "He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye” (v.8) NKJV      We need to know that God is so jealous of us and He wants to preserve us. Though we are living in a wicked world, God has His program to protect and preserve His children. It is only a wicked father who will not protect his own people when he possesses the ability to do so. And God is a good father. Whatever loss you have experienced in the past, this year will be a year of better experiences for you. It shall be peaceful and calm.

GROWING

GROWING

Ephesians 4:9-16
Dev:-  “But, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head of Christ” (v. 15)


    God’s plan and desire is that we grow up. So many Christian today are growing older but not growing up. Many are stocked in perpetual spiritual infancy. This is because they never intend to grow. Spiritual growth is not automatic, it takes intentional commitment. You must want to grow, decide to grow, make an effort and persist in growing. Discipleship is the process of becoming like Christ (Matthew 10:25).

In your spiritual growth, God has a part and you have a part. To be Christ-like you will need to make Christ like choices and depend on the Holy Spirit to help you fulfill those choices. The moment you are ready, you will need to let go of some old routines and develop some new habits. You will need to intentionally change the way you are thinking (Philippians 2:12-13). To work out your salvation with fear and trembling means to take your spiritual growth serious. 

It is important to know that to change your life you must change the way you are thinking (Proverbs 4:23). You must deprogram and reprogram a new autopilot mind which help you to think the godly way (Romans 12:2). This is a mental shift call repentance. This mental shift demands you stop thinking immaturely and start thinking like Christ. To think maturely means start focusing on others and not yourself. 

Peace!

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to choose to grow.
