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.

THE LORD IS GOOD

Psalm 136:1-10
Devotional:- “Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever" (V. 1) NKJV

    When you consider how people behave to you, sometimes you will be tempted to conclude that people are not good. The truth is that most people don't live in the love of God and this makes us not to be good to others. This might be as a result of human's limitation. We often over-expect from one another. The person we are expecting from may not be as we have pictured him/her in our mind. Yes, it might be challenging to say that some people are good but the Bible says the Lord is good.

You must accept this truth to enjoy your walk with God. Even though as Christians we go through different seasons for different reasons. Sometimes God may be correcting us in such season and to us it may not look very pleasant (Hebrews 12:6-11). Sometimes God may want to teach us something. Sometimes God may consciously delay some things from coming to us for the sake of right timing.

But in the long run, you will discover that the Lord is good. His goodness makes Him have a good plan for everyone even your family. When you understand that the Lord is good, it will make you appreciate His deed in your life. Then life cannot but start to appreciate you. There is no way our little mind can comprehend His deeds. But the word of God says He is a good God. He will surely make His goodness known to you.

Prayer: Lord, make my life to witness your goodness.

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.
