Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!

S-cripture:

Job 22:21

Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you.

O-bservation:

These are the words of one of Job’s friends while Job was in the depths of his suffering. Not everything his friends said was helpful, but this one line works in any generation, culture, or time. Let God have His way in your life and prosperity will come to you.

A-pplication:

I remember as a young man my father-in-law saying to me, “Rich, what God wants for you and what you want for you are one in the same.” I never understood that as a younger man, but I sure get it now. Our problem is we fight God for our own way. We want peace, joy, a happy family, and prosperity. Those are the exact things God promises us if we’ll just yield to Him. I’m called to follow the Lord instead of wanting my own thing. He knows how to get to where I want to go in a better way than I’m approaching the matter. He wrote the book for heaven’s sake. As we follow His manual, prosperity begins to pour in. That’s, “How To Break The Bank!”

P-rayer:

Dear Jesus,

This AM I know I’m on the right track. I’m yielded to You. I’m blessed and highly favored today because You have ordered my steps! Amen
