S. O. A. P.
Here’s your 90 second AM devotional!
S-cripture:
Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.
O-bservation:
Looking straight at the most religious Jewish people of his era, “The Sanhedrin,” Peter the Apostle declared boldly that there was and is only “One Name” by which men and women can be saved. That name and “No Other Name” is JESUS.
A-pplication:
Now is not the time to hide the truth under the table. Jesus is the only way to salvation. If you want to get to the Father, you have to go through Jesus—the One and Only Way! We are watching our nation bow to every evil force imaginable. But there is one area where we will stand strong. You may be thinking … “Rich, what are you going to say?” I’m telling you, there is … “No Other Name!” Mohammed won’t work, Buddha won’t work, and sorry … but all the scribes and religious Pharisees won’t do it either. Your future success in life has the “Name of Jesus” written all over it. There is … “No Other Name!”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
I’m aware of the fact that many other religious organizations today are vying for people’s attention. But I must say that in my life, and for my family and the people You have called me to … There is … “No Other Name.” Amen

We are the church. We can walk in obedience to the scriptures, let His light shine through us. Then people will come to us, attracted to us, asking us questions, and we must be available to be their friend! Then eventually we can introduce them to our best friend, who sticketh closer than a brother, Jesus Christ, amen.
