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.

OUR REFUGE

OUR REFUGE

Devotional:- “God is our refuge and strength [mighty, and Impenetrable to temptation] a very present and well-proved help in trouble”. (V. 1) AMPL

    God’s word refers to God as our refuge and strength. The experience in the world today is that no place is safe. The aircraft has been proven to be one of the safest means of transportation for years. But now experiences have proved that no particular means of transportation is safe. But for God’s children, God is our refuge.

Refuge simply means “a place of safety”. That is why the book of Proverbs refers to God’s name as a strong tower, righteousness can always run into it and be safe (Proverbs 18:10). God is our stronghold. The scripture we read today says, it is the reason why we will not be afraid. Even if the earth is removed and mountains are quaking. When we hide in the name of the Lord, we are safe.

Friend, no matter what may be happening anywhere you must always remember that God is your hiding place (Psalm 119:114). He is your refuge. The way to always enter into your refuge in God is to learn to call upon the name of Jesus. He is the door to your refuge (John 14:6). Call Him in the car, aircraft, and ship, in the house, even in your dream, in your office or school, and anywhere. Then you are right in your refuge. The reason why fire could not burn the three Hebrews in Daniel 3 is because they were in God in the fire (Colossians 3:3). So, there is no such fire that will burn your refuge. When you are in Him, you are safe.

Prayer: Jesus, put my life and family into your name forever.

“WHEN YOUR REFUGE IS THE STRONGEST YOU ARE THE SAFEST”

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

THE GRACIOUS

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
