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.

HARVEST IN FAMINE

HARVEST IN FAMINE 

Genesis 26:1-14
Devotional:- Then the LORD appeared to him and said: "Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you” (V.2) NKJV

    Human migrations are always caused by many factors but one of the strongest is when there is famine in a land. Human reasoning will tell us that wise people should move to another place. The poor are always the victims of such. So, Isaac thought it wise to move to the land of Egypt where there was much food.

But God told him to remain in the land and that He would be with him (Genesis 26:3). There was nothing on the ground to prove that God would do what He said but His faithfulness. There are no evidential circumstances to encourage Isaac. All the weather forecasters have said the farming will be long. Many rich people who could afford the cost of traveling to Egypt were migrating in thousands. But God said that Isaac should wait. And that year he had his miracle harvest.

This is your year. Don’t follow the multitude. Stay where God asked you to stay. It is not where you are but who you are that matters to God. The place people called barren shall be fruitful for you. You shall wax great in the land. Your harvest shall be hundredfold. The most important thing is, you are doing what God is asking you to do. And men shall envy your blessing.

Prayer: Lord, help me to obey you no matter what.

“NO MATTER THE SITUATION WHEN GOD SPEAKS THAT IS THE FINAL”
