APPLE OF HIS EYE

APPLE OF HIS EYE Zechariah 2:6-10  Devotional:- “For thus says the LORD of hosts: "He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye” (v.8) NKJV      We need to know that God is so jealous of us and He wants to preserve us. Though we are living in a wicked world, God has His program to protect and preserve His children. It is only a wicked father who will not protect his own people when he possesses the ability to do so. And God is a good father. Whatever loss you have experienced in the past, this year will be a year of better experiences for you. It shall be peaceful and calm.

OVERCOMING THE FORCES

OVERCOMING THE FORCES

2 Samuel 23:8-10 
Devotional:- “He arose and attacked the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand stuck to the sword. The LORD brought about a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to plunder” (V. 10) NKJV

    We are in a world of battle and you must be willing to face the fight if you are one of the winners. Jesus did not promise us a battle-free life and the way out will not be to back out. He that backs out of battle accepts defeat. God’s word says God will not allow temptation that is more than us to happen to us. That is why God never expects us to lose in life’s battle. He has kept in you what is more than what you are facing and potentials greater than your challenges (1 John 4:4).

In the scripture today is the catalogue of David’s mighty men and what they did. Eleazar the son of Dodo is one of them. In the record of the reign of David, he never lost any battle and these are the men that God used for him. When Israelites were facing the Philistines, they retreated from the face of their enemy, but Eleazar stood strong and defended the city until his hand and sword could not separate. That day, he got the victory for his nation.

Friend, your battles are not more than you. You need to rise and face them. Be it academic; business; family; finance or spiritual battle, never withdraw. He who withdraws will not win. Don’t forget that greater is He that is in you. Your problems cannot see your end; you will see its end. Don’t bother about the current situation; all shall change for glory because this battle has been fixed. You must win for Jesus is in you. Since Jesus has won the battle for you, you only need to carry a winner’s mentality because the victorious Jesus is in you (John 16:33). That is why it is written whatever is born of God overcomes the world (1 John 5:4). That is talking about you. Keep acting on God’s instruction by faith and you will win.

PRAYER: LORD, I WILL SEE THE END OF MY CHALLENGES.

“HE THAT RUNS FROM BATTLE LOSES THE BATTLE”

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.

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.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.
