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.

MURMUR NOT

MURMUR NOT

Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 10:6-11
Devotional:- Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. (V. 10) KJV

    So many people love the praises of God and yet they are specialist in murmuring. The truth is that you cannot be murmuring and be praiseful. You need to know that been praiseful means, you are celebrating the goodness and the greatness God. Murmuring means you are complaining that God is not good to you. So, show me how they can work together.

When some finish dancing and praising God in the church and on the way, they start to murmur again. This is common with people because they see their needs not met as they expected. This make people unconsciously start to complain. This can happen to anybody irrespective of status. We must grow above of this because God hate it.

The children of Israel murmur against God and they were destroyed. Please note that whenever you are murmuring, you are doing it against God. Anytime the urge to murmur comes up, just switch to praises. Stop comparing yourself with anyone. You only have a classmate or age mate and not a life mate. Each one’s season in life is different (2 Corinthians 10:12). Stop been intimidated by other people’s achievements. Your season will surely come (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Then you will be promoted before the Lord. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me a matured heart not to murmur again.

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 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.
