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 SHIELD

OUR SHIELD

Psalm 84:1-12
Devotional:- “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly” (V. 11).

    A shield is an instrument of protection from the flying arrows. A shield is an instrument used at war by the army to protect themselves from the attack of the enemy. So, shield is a very vital and viable instrument. But as good as it is it cannot function by itself. That is why some soldiers can be destroyed despite the shield in their hands. Men of war must be strong for them to overcome despite the weapons in their hands.

But you know that sometimes despite the good weapons in the hand of a man he could become weak and may soon be defeated. That is why our protection as God’s children does not depend on our strength. God Himself is our shield. We therefore have a living shield and not non-living material. The strength of our shield does not diminish nor depend on our strength.

All you need to do is to trust in your shield. Believe that God is your shield as He has said in His word. And it shall always be unto you according to your faith. Always believe Him to protect you both in the house, while you are on a journey, or in the office or school. No matter what the world may be facing, you and your family shall be exempted. And your days shall be with peace.

Prayer: Lord, be my shield all day long.

“WHEN GOD IS YOUR SHIELD NIGHT OR DAY WILL BE SAFE FOR YOU”
