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.

ASKING AND RECEIVING

ASKING AND RECEIVING

SCRIPTURE: LUKE 11:5-13
DEVOTIONAL: “For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened” (Vs. 10)

    Prayer is about asking and receiving. To many people, prayer is asking and asking. This mind-set of prayer being only about asking should be erased because prayer entails asking and receiving. Sometimes, some believers say that they have been asking God for something in the past one year and are still believing Him for answers. This is totally a wrong mind-set. When I pray, I expect an answer, so it comes always and almost instantly. If I stay long in prayers, I just want to hang around God. 

Friend, prayer is a dialogue and not a monologue. If your son or daughter comes to ask you for something, do you postpone your response or keep quiet about it? No, you don’t! Our religious mind-sets need a total change. Your desires might not be delivered immediately, but the answer of God is His word. God might tell you yes, no or hold on, but He will not ignore you.

The Scripture for today says that everyone who ask, receives. God always answers with an instruction or a guide on how we can receive answers (Psalms 32:8, Jeremiah 33:3). We must always play our parts by exercising faith at all times (Hebrews 11:40). Settle it in your heart today that, God always answer prayers (John 11:41-42). Open your heart to receive His voice and you will become fruitful in prayers in Jesus’ name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, teach me to hear you always
