S. O. A. P.

Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!

S-cripture:

Revelation 9:6

During those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them.

O-bservation:

The Apostle John was given a vision by God while on the Isle of Patmos. It was a vision of the future. He saw a time when things would get so bad in the end, because of sin, that people would try and find death. But John said, “Death will elude them.”

A-pplication:

Ever since we were born and came to an understanding of life and death, most of us have felt like death has been chasing us. There have been a number of times in my life where I’ve looked back on an event and asked, “How did I get away?” Can you imagine trying so hard to find death because of the situation you’re in, and then somehow “Death Gets Away?” Jesus spoke to the Church in the first several chapters of Revelation, through the Apostle John, so we know  there is a day of reckoning coming. I’m glad this AM that Jesus has redeemed me, so that whatever awaits me in my future I’m already covered. I’m not fearful of what death may bring because I know I have already been given “Life and Life MORE Abundantly!”

P-rayer:

Dear Jesus,

I’m grateful this AM that You have conquered death, hell, and the grave. Because of You I know I can face tomorrow. Amen
