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.

FORCES OF CHANGE

Scripture Reading: Act 16:23-34
Devotional:- Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were loosed. (V. 26) NKJV


    In the course of our journey on earth, we are bound to face challenges (John 16:33). This is because for every action there will always be a reaction. But Jesus instructs us that we should not allow the reactions to intimidate us. We should rather rejoice all through (James 1:2). In praises, we will employ the forces of God for our change.

Paul and Silas were greatly resisted in Macedonia. They were terribly persecuted. They were beaten with strives and they were put into a prison. It was a terrible experience, just for preaching the gospel. At midnight, they prayed and later began to sing. This is a heart that is not offended in God. (Matthew 11:6). Because they were singing praises, the Lord stepped into the prison, there was an earthquake, the prison doors were opened and everyone’s bound were loosed.

Friend, instead of murmuring in that situation turn to praises. Praises will bring the presence of God to rescue you (Psalm 22:3). Praises put the dominion of God over your enemy. Where God is presence the enemy will bow out and your troubles will vanish (Psalms 97:5). God's presence come as we choose to praise the Lord and your situation will change for good. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to keep praising you for my freedom.

“IF YOU CAN BRING GOD IN, THERE WILL BE A CHANGE “

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

THE GRACIOUS

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
