By Evang. Joachim P. Erameh
God loves His children and treats them as special people. He watches over them, protecting them with His eyes fixed on them round the clock. God’s children are untouchable – God won’t let the wicked come near them. They’re the apple of His eye.
Zechariah 2:8 says, “He that toucheth you touchech the apple of His eye.” Anyone who dares touch a child of God is looking for trouble – like putting your hand in fire! God defends His children fiercely; He’ll do anything to protect them. He even killed enemies for their sake.
When Korah, Dathan, and Abiram rose against Moses, God made the earth swallow them (Numbers 16:1-33). Daniel’s accusers were thrown to lions (Daniel 6:1-24). Being a child of God is a privilege! They know they’re untouchable, fearing no evil or man.
David said, “Though I walk through the valley of death, I will fear no evil” (Psalm 23:4). “Though war rise against me, I will be confident” (Psalm 27:3).
Are you a child of God? The apple of His eye? If sin’s holding you back, repent and surrender to Jesus. Be a true child of God – be prayerful.
