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.

PURSUE PEACE

PURSUE PEACE

SCRIPTURE: PSALMS 34: 8-18
DEVOTIONAL: “Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it” (V. 14)

    The word of God is very clear about what could hinder prayers from being answered. That is why it is important that we don't relate with God occasionally but regularly. One of the factors that can hinder prayers is lack of peace with people. This is not relating freely with people. It will therefore be wisdom to learn to freely relate with people.

Today’s word admonishes us to pursue peace with everyone. This is because if we don’t pursue peace with people, we may not be able to establish righteous relationships. Shooting trouble is very easy, but being at peace with people costs a great deal.

Making peace with people is so important because the word of God tells us that without it, we may not be able to see God. This means that people who want to have their prayers answered, have no option than to seek peace with their offenders. So, choose to be at peace everywhere and with everyone. When people are not at peace with you, just seek peace with them and the doors to your answers shall be open. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, ordain me a man of peace

“PEACE IS AN EVIDENCE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD”.
