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.

REHEARSAL FOR ETERNITY

REHEARSAL FOR ETERNITY

Ecclesiastes 3:9-15
Devotional:- “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” (V.11)


      It is important you realize that life here is a rehearsal for eternity. Just like you spend nine month in your mother’s womb, but that was a preparation for the real life, so also is life here compared to eternity. No matter how many years you spend here it is not up to one percent of eternity. 

The scripture we read today says that God has planted eternity in our heart. That is why you don’t want to die. But as God’s kingdom citizen, death is not your termination but transition. So, choosing where to spend eternity is what we do here. This is by choosing to relate with Jesus the son of God or with sin and devil. That means these two relationship determines where you will spend your eternity [John 3:16]. 

The best way to live as a child of God is to choose to relate with God and choose the character of God [Matt 7: 20-21]. These two factors are so important. So live in the consciousness of eternity always. This will greatly affect your character and values [Philippians 3:7]. The moment your heart stops beating, your eternity begins. Then your character and relationship becomes eternal life and rewards [2 Cor. 5:1-11]. There will be no room for amendment [Heb13:14]. Please know that your character and relationship has eternal consequences. Peace! 

PRAYER—Lord help me to choose you and your will in all things.

‘’TO LIVE ETERNALLY WITH God, SET YOUR MIND ALWAYS ON ETERNITY’’
