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.

LET HIM USE YOU

LET HIM USE YOU

Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 2:18-26  
Devotional:-“Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work” (V. 21) NKJV


    Everyone you see on this planet earth is used either by the Spirit of God or the spirit of the devil. The spirit of man came from God but it can be ruled by either (Genesis 2:7). This is because God has made man a free moral agent God has given us the grace to make choices. That is why you need to be deliberate about the spirit you submit to every minute of your life. 

A man may be used by the Spirit of the Lord now, and in the next moment being used by another spirit. We see an example in Peter (Matthew 16:15-23). That is why the word of God teaches us to test all spirits (1 John 4:1).

If God will use you and you will not be a vessel unto dishonor, then, the word of God tells us to be transformed to the new man in Christ (Romans 12:2; 2 Timothy 2:21). The word of God tells us to flee from lust, pursue righteousness, faith and peace. Avoid disputing and quarreling. Gentle to teach with patience and correcting others with humility. God’s word says if we do this things, we shall be useful vessels for God (2 Timothy 2:21). As a worker in the house of God, these are what make your services acceptable and rewarding (Romans 12:1). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me to be useful for you alone.

“TO BE USEFUL FOR GOD IS A CHOICE”
