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.

FORCEFULLY

FORCEFULLY

Matthew 11:1-13 NKJV
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. (V 12)

    One powerful thing about the kingdom of God is that it is dynamic. This is because God has been doing great things in fulfilling His purpose. That is why we can see so many changes coming in to the kingdom of God, the church. The moment any group of people grow cold, the Holy Spirit raises another. This is to fulfil the word of Jesus that says the gate of hell shall not prevail against the church.

Because of the dynamism of the Holy Spirit, the devil too is really advancing to destroy lives. That is the reasons for so much coldness in the lives of some Christians. So many don’t want to be committed to God, many people want to keep the Church as a social gathering. They come late to the Church and leave early. The devil robs their mind with material things. They commit so much atrocity in the Church. Some keep coming but they never leave their wicked ways. The devil possesses some to cause disunity in the Church. All of this are tricks of the advancement of the kingdom of darkness (2 Timothy 3:1-7).

You therefore need to take your stand. The Church is not a place for show. It is a gathering at the feet of Jesus to learn, be strong, overcome and become citizens of heaven. Rise up from look warmness to the things of God. Walk in His will; obey His word.

Refuse to turn back from Jesus. Endure to the end. Force your way through God. It will never be easy but don’t give up because of situations. Then your life will begin to reflect God’s glory

Prayer: Lord, let the tough situation keep building me strong for my victory

“WHEN YOU REFUSE TO BOW FOR THE GOD OF SITUATIONS, IT WILL BOW TO YOUR GOD”.
