S. O. A. P.
Here’s your 90 second AM devotional!
S-cripture:
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
O-bservation:
This is a fantastic word from the Apostle Paul. He actually encouraged the young church at Thessalonica to keep on encouraging one another and to build each other up. He said, “You’ve been doing it … so just keep on doing it!”
A-pplication:
I want to build you up today. I’m sure you get torn down, ripped apart, and talked about like the rest of us. But in fact, that’s just a part of life (Ref. John 16:33). But I’m not here for that. You’re a wonderful person. How do I know that? Because you’re reading a “Morning Devotional!!” Who does that? YOU DO! You’re concerned about other people. How do I know that? Because you’re reading a MORNING DEVOTIONAL! If you keep on reading these, and I’m sure you will … you will begin to get a Morning nudge from the Holy Spirit about how you can help people even more. That’s what the WORD does. I encourage you today … keep loving God, keep loving yourself, and keep loving people. We have enough Haters out there, but you’re not one of them. “I Just Wanted To Build You Up Today!”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
Right now I pray for my friend who is reading this AM Devo. Bless them and encourage them to keep on building others up! Amen
