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.

BEEN PRAYERFUL

BEEN PRAYERFUL

Acts 4:24-33 NKJV
And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness (V 31)

    Most things that are beneficial to our lives are not always pleasant to us; simply because the enemy wants us to fall and fail. So he made us hate anything that will give us strength. I am sure that you will observe this in most cases we always enjoy things that will build our physical body rather than things that will build our spirit. We need to understand that it is all together the trick of the devil to make us neglect God and make us think that we can always go on without Him.

Many Christians today now despise prayer. They call it old time religious practice. Many of us are even tempted to think that you only need to keep applying wisdom and you may never need to pray. You will get to a point in life only to realise that without God’s wisdom in prayer will be equal to foolishness.

Actually, we should be careful of making religion out of prayer. But we need to understand that prayer is fellowshipping with God and also a spiritual warfare. It is in prayer we speak our minds to God. It is also in prayer we hear from God (Jeremiah 33:3). This is because our battle in life is not against flesh and blood (Ephesians 6:10-12).

A prayer-less Christian is a power-less Christian. It is in the course of prayer that God’s grace and Virtues are released. In the remaining part of this year, be prayerful. Except you pray, some blessing will not open up to you. No child of God has achieved anything great and durable in life without effective prayer life.

Prayer: Lord, baptise me with the Spirit of grace and supplication

“PRAYER IS THE ACT OF CONNECTING TO THE POWER SOURCE OF GOD”.
