S. O. A. P.
Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!
S-cripture:
Romans 5:19
For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
O-bservation:
The Apostle Paul said because of the DISOBEDIENCE of “Just ONE Man” (Adam), sin entered the world. But conversely it is also true that because of the OBEDIENCE of “Just ONE Man” (Jesus), many will be made righteous or saved.
A-pplication:
The message of this verse centers on the power of “Just ONE Man.” And the power lies on either side of the moral spectrum. For instance … “Just ONE Man,” Adolf Hitler, led an entire nation to ANNIHILATE over 6 million Jewish people. On the other hand … “Just ONE Man,” Jonas Salk, discovered the cure for polio and SAVED the lives of millions! One could fill pages with examples of the idea that “Just ONE Person,” man or woman, can make a huge difference. Too often, if we’re not alert we can grow cold in our own understanding of just how important each one of us is in God’s grand scheme of things. None of us are UN-IMPORTANT! Teams are wonderful. United teams are even better. However, there are times when there’s no one to step up to stand with you. In the midst of feeling alone, there is “ONE Man” who is there … JESUS! If you will embrace this fact today, then you won’t forget that all it takes is “Just ONE Man!”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
Today I won’t forget that You and I are always a MAJORITY!! Amen
