Good Stuff Is From The Lord
S. O. A. P.
Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!
S-cripture:
James 1:17
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
O-bservation:
The Apostle James made it absolutely clear that any and all good gifts come to us from the Lord above. He doesn’t change and hold back from us when we fail Him, because He is a God who changes not.
A-pplication:
Have you thought about some of His good and perfect gifts lately? Sunshine after a refreshing rain. Wheat fields ready to be harvested. The tornado didn’t touch down. Grandpa got better. The bills got paid again this month. Your wife received an unexpected raise. The insurance company paid off the storm damage. Whether you had any of these things happen for you or not, I could have kept going until you would have said, “Yes, that was a good gift that happened to me this year.” Sometimes what seems to be normal happenings are gifts from God that we take for granted. If you’re still unconvinced, what about the temperature? It’s not too hot that we burn to death and it isn’t too cold that we freeze to death. There is such a balance to everything the Lord does, and yet seldom does He get the credit for it. The truth is, “Good Stuff Is From The Lord.”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
Thank You that You do all things well! Thank You that when Your gifts come they’re always GOOD. Let me say it again! THANK YOU!! Amen
