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.

MEN OF THE WORD

MEN OF THE WORD

Colossians 3:12–17
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. (V. 16)

    The word of God is our sword of the spirit (Ephesian 6:17). The word is our sure word of Prophesy (2 Peter 1:19). It is the truth, that is, the law that rules heavens and earth. The word is the covenant and the eternal promise of God. It has been finding fulfilment since ages past and it shall continue to find fulfilment as we put total trust in God and we wait on Him.

The Scripture says, seek, and you shall find, ask, and you shall be given, knock and the door shall be open unto you. Children of God seek and ask and knock, all these shall be released unto you through the word which is God Himself (John 1:1). The word of God is the bases for our faith. Faith in God is faith in the word. It is the foundation for our rest and our peace in God. That means, it is on the word we stand and have hope in. It is the creative force of God. This creative force is also in us whenever we speak the word of God (Genesis 1:2-3).

The word is therefore strongly important in the life of every victorious child of God. The Word is God Himself (John 1:1). The word is Spirit and Life (John 6:63). The word gives life and strength to the mind which enhances our victory (Psalm 119:97-100).

If you will be a victor, the word must dwell in you richly, then you have a solid base for overcoming in all situations.

Prayer: Lord, help me to store your word in my heart for my victory.

‘‘THE WORD OF GOD IS GOD IN LETTERS, WHICH BECOMES ACTIVE AS MEN SPEAK IT BY FAITH’’
