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.

RIGHT CHOICES

RIGHT CHOICES

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 12: 19-28
Devotional:- “The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray” (V26)

    One of the blessings of righteousness is that it helps to make the right choices. Making of choices in life is a major and a critical need of life. But the Bible says “the steps of the upright are ordered by the Lord (Psalms 37:23-24). Though a righteous man may fall, but he will not be totally cast down. He will keep rising up (Proverbs 24:16).

When a man makes a choice to live in righteousness, his choice ability becomes stronger. This is because the choice to live in the righteousness of God makes us different to some people who don't want to go through the same route (2 Corinthians 6:14-18). There are places you can no longer find him. There are practices he can no longer be involved. There are cloth, businesses etc. you can no longer find with him. (Psalm 1:1-2, Daniel 3:16-18)

Friend, make up your mind to live in the righteousness of God. This will make your choices focus on the will of God. Your life will be definite. Your decisions will be predictable to all. They know what you will take and what you will not. This is when you can truly be called a child of God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to choose the path of righteousness.
