S. O. A. P.

Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!

S-cripture:

Psalm 120:1

I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me.

O-bservation:

The Psalmist never, ever beat around the bush anywhere in the book of Psalms when it came to his choice of help in times of trouble. He always called on Jesus. AND … Jesus always answered him.

A-pplication:

There is one thing that every human on the planet will face, and that is … “TROUBLE”!!! Trouble either makes a person or breaks a person. In fact, without trouble there is no potential for personal growth whatsoever. A child tries to walk, and falls, and bruises himself. What does the child do with that trouble? He gets up and has another go at it, and voila!! He eventually walks without falling and we all take it for granted, but the FALL came before the ability to walk. What will you do with the trouble you’re faced with? Here’s a challenge. Decide that the trouble you’re facing is necessary in order to WALK out your destiny, and in fact that it is heaven sent. The Psalmist knew the answer to his dilemma was to call on the Lord. So, why not just “Call Him Up!” Right now!

P-rayer:

Dear Jesus,

This AM, as if You didn’t know, I’ve got TROUBLE! Evidently You’re trusting me in order to take me to another level because of this test! So … I’m calling on YOU! Amen
