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.

STORM

Matthew 8:23-27
Devotional:- “But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.” (V. 26) NKJV

    Sometimes in the life of people, stormy situations could arise. This is often a period of total confusion. A period that the enemy wants to take advantage of. For one reason or the other, there could just be one form of problem or another all around. And it looks as if life is at the endpoint of life. It is a time when it looks as if it is finished for you. At such a time people may desert you and it may look as if you are the only one facing challenges on earth. In such a period many people ask: “God where is your face?” And we ask if He is still alive. Little do we realize that when a situation begins to turn so bad, it is just about to turn good. I don’t know what the situation is like with you, your work, family, finances, or academics. This happens to people when they see more of their situation and not the power of God available to them.

The disciples of Jesus had also faced stormy situations before. Though Jesus was in the boat, the disciples lost sight of Him. It is a period to test us before our triumph. The enemy is aware of the glory ahead of us and wants to see if he can frustrate us and turn us against God before the release of that glory (Romans 6:18-20). All you need to do in this kind of situation is to keep your eye on Jesus as your saviour (Hebrews 12:2). He will save you and preserve your glorious future; knowing that He shall fulfill them. Then settle down in your heart to see the force of God and His power around you. Always speak the word of God by faith to the situation. This will grow your faith, and then start to rebuke the storms one by one. Soon, there shall be great calm all around you. The enemy is only trying your faith. You will win at last and men shall marvel at your God.

PRAYER: LORD, STRENGTHEN MY FAITH TO SEE MY CALMNESS.

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.
