Better Than Shock And Awe
S. O. A. P.
Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!
S-cripture:
Job 25:2
Dominion and awe belong to God; he establishes order in the heights of heaven.
O-bservation:
These are the words of Job’s friends while he was still languishing in suffering and pain. They spoke of God’s almighty power, not only on the earth but reaching to the highest heights of heaven. In every place, The Lord has established order.
A-pplication:
Some years back, in one of America’s not too long ago wars, the attack was called “Shock And Awe!” In other words, the world would be in a state of “Shock and Awe” when they saw our mighty power. Obviously I love our country, but there really wasn’t much “Shock And Awe” to it. That country is pulling out of the mess and continuing on, and we’re still trying to amaze someone. The truth is, there is only ONE being in history who is capable of “Shock And Awe,” and His name is Jesus. He doesn’t just create order in the highest heavens, He actually made them and the world we live in. He certainly isn’t afraid of death because He conquered it. I can tell you this, His “Dominion And Awe” are “Better Than Shock And Awe” any day of the week.
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
This AM I’m amazed at Your “Dominion And Awe.” I never stop giving You my worship. Amen
