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.

THE SOUL

1 Peter 2:18-25
Dev:  “For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.”  (Vs. 25)

    There are two forces that govern the souls of people. They are the forces of God and of the devil. These forces have no right to force themselves on you, till you give your soul to them. (Revelation 3:20). This is because you are made a free moral agent. Unconsciously to most people who don't consciously give their soul to God, they do not know that they have given it to the devil through sin (1 John 3:8-10, Romans 6:16)

A greater percentage of people in most churches today have not consciously given their soul to God. They only assume they are children of God. People think been a child of God is when you bear Christian name and go to church once a while. They have one day lifted up their hands in the church as a sign of coming to Jesus. But this is making a covenant they do not keep.

Friend, your soul was made by God (Genesis 2:7) But the forces of the devil is doing all in their power to possess it (1   Peter 2:11). All he needs to do is to make you live as you like and not just as God instruct (Matt 7:21-22). If your soul will be for God, you must consciously hand it over to Jesus, see him as the owner by you fearfully obeying Him to do whatever he instructs you to do. Peace. 

PRAYER- Lord, I receive grace to totally commit my soul to you.

“YOUR SOUL IS SOLD TO WHOM YOU OBEY”

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.
