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.

GOOD WORKS

GOOD WORKS

Scripture Reading: 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) NKJV


    God is a good God. He is the one that does good works (Job 5:9). If anyone therefore wants to do good works as the Bible says, then he/she must be ready to do what God is doing. To do good works is also to be used by God to help others. Good works are therefore a ministry of help to humanity.

The word of God said: God has recreated us and prepared us for this. In other word, we were saved and redeemed for this purpose. When Jesus redeemed us, He has repackaged in us the ability to do good works. This He does through the Holy Spirit He gave to us. The Holy Spirit does this through us by giving us different abilities and gifts (1 Corinthians 12:6-7). These are our instruments for good works.

It is therefore important that make sure our services to God are good works before God. This is by doing it to please the master and to bless lives. Our work may look good but it is not done in righteousness, it will be bad work. The difference between good and bad work is that only good work will be rewarded by God. God must direct us to it and we do it in His will by His grace and abilities He gave us. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make all my life for your good works

“It is either you are doing good work or bad work”
