APPLE OF HIS EYE

APPLE OF HIS EYE Zechariah 2:6-10  Devotional:- “For thus says the LORD of hosts: "He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye” (v.8) NKJV      We need to know that God is so jealous of us and He wants to preserve us. Though we are living in a wicked world, God has His program to protect and preserve His children. It is only a wicked father who will not protect his own people when he possesses the ability to do so. And God is a good father. Whatever loss you have experienced in the past, this year will be a year of better experiences for you. It shall be peaceful and calm.

AREAS OF A GROWTH

AREAS OF A GROWTH

Scripture: 2 Peter 3:14-18

Devotional:- “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen” (v.18) NKJV

    As citizens of the kingdom of God, there are areas of life that we need to grow to be like Jesus. These areas encompasses different dimension of our spiritual need for a balanced Christian life. Though we should grow in Christ in every areas of our lives, but let us group these areas to about five, for easy growth structure.

The first area a disciple of Christ should focus on to grow like Jesus is in our character. This has to do with our behavioral habits which characterized us before God and man (1 Timothy 4:12). The second area is the area of our capacity. This has to do with the development of our ability to use our gift and talent to help and advance the kingdom of God, yet in a godly way (1 Corinthians 12:7).

The third is our understanding (Ephesians 1:17-18). Our understanding of the ways of God determine how much we can get done in God. Fourth is our relationship with God and people. This is growing in love with God and man. And fifth is our faith in God. Every time we are studying the word of  God, these  are areas we should seek to learn and know more in  God. And we shall be growing up  in the Lord to be like Jesus as true followers of Christ. Peace.

PRAYER:- Lord, help me to grow in all things in Christ

“Growth is  only growth when it is balanced.
