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.

PRESENCE OF GOD

PRESENCE OF GOD

Genesis 28:10-22
Devotional:- “Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go and will bring you back to this land: for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you”(v.15)

    God is not just present everywhere; His presence is always available, particularly with His people. He said wherever two or three of us may be He will always be there (Matthew 18:20). He has promised never to live nor forsake His children (Hebrews 13:5). It means His presence thus not depart as we always think. It is only our iniquity that can separate us from Him (Isaiah 59:2).

At the time Jacob was running away from his brother Esau, he never could imagine that God was with him. He felt he had offended his brother, forgetting that the brother had sold his birthright to him and God was in no way offended since it is by His covenant (Genesis 25:23). As Jacob lay down to rest in his journey, God gave him a revelation of His presence. And God gave him a covenant.

Friend, the covenant is also for you. God said He would not leave you until He has fulfilled all His promises concerning you. Wherever you are, His presence will be there with you. Either you are in motion or on a spot. That is why you will surely prosper because His presence comes with joy and pleasure (Psalm 16:11). And He will surely see you through your challenges.

Prayer: Lord, help me to always be conscious of your presence.

“GOD‘S PRESENCE WILL SURELY PRESERVE AND PROSPER YOU”
