S. O. A. P.
Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!
S-cripture:
Deuteronomy 8:18a
But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth.
O-bservation:
Moses was reminding the people of Israel of all the great things God had done for them. He told them, “Don’t ever think that it was on account of your brilliance that you have prospered, because it was only by God’s grace you have been prospered. He Got You The Money.”
A-pplication:
I have names in my head right now of friends of mine who many years ago were humble folks, and because of the Lord’s blessing on their lives they became very prosperous. As time has gone by, they went from, “The Lord helped me and we were able to buy a piece of property,” or “Because of the Lord’s blessing I was able to double my money on that deal,” to a far different response. What they say now is, “I did this and I did that.” God is never mentioned. You’d think they are brighter than the richest people in history. What happened? They forgot that it was God all along. Never forget that when your blessing comes, the only proper response should be, “He Got Me The Money!”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
I know this AM that every good and perfect gift comes from You. Thank You for Your blessings in my life! Amen

I think today’s devotional was the voice of God speaking directly to me-renewing my mind. Sometimes I can forget that everything I have comes from the LORD.
