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.

JILTED LOVE

JILTED LOVE

II Samuel 13:7-18
Devotional:- “Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Arise, be gone!” (V. 15) NKJV

    Today many people in the world have become victims of love that has been turned to hatred. The best of friends sometimes can become the worst enemies. Some marriages that started full of love have turned bitter. Many couples have rendered their marriage vows null and void. Some spouses have allowed the third party to destroy their relationship. And someone is always a victim of such evil.

Ammon the son David demonstrated immaturity in operating fake love. This kind of love is called infatuation or lust. This is what young people always mistake for love. But the end of it is often hatred. The reason why there are many jilted loves today is because the foundation of most love affairs is not sure (Psalm 11:3). The foundation is mostly infatuation and insincerity. It is a product of the indiscipline of the sexual urge. Instead of dealing with this weakness, some assume sleeping around will solve it. That was what killed Samson and brought Solomon down.

Many spouses also give in to the devil to allow a third party to break their love. This is often due to the carelessness of one who may be playing a foolish game till it turns around to be a trouble. If anyone is a victim of jilted love, let him make Jesus his or her lover. Make Him your friend. Let Him redirect your life. Forgive the one that jilted you for your peace to be established. Then make yourself available for the service of God. And the Lord will recognize your life. He will turn around your life. And you will have testimonies.

PRAYER: LORD, RESTORE YOUR PEACE AND LOVE TO MY HEART.

“THE GREATEST LOVE CAN BE FOUND IN JESUS”
