Once Again, God Keeps His Promises

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 1 Kings 4:20 The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore; they ate, they drank and they were happy. O-bservation: Here is the fulfillment of the promise God made to Abraham in Genesis 22:17. God told Abraham that one day His descendants would be as numerous as the sand on the seashore. A-pplication: It took some 1,200 years for this promise made to Abraham, by God, to come to pass. But "Once Again God Keeps His Promises." What is it you're believing for? What is it that you've been...

FAITH=RIGHTEOUSNESS

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Genesis 15:6 Abram believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness. O-bservation: Abram had no son, but he had a promise from God that his offspring would match the number of stars in the sky. When he believed that promise, God said Abram was a righteous man. "FAITH=RIGHTEOUSNESS." A-pplication: This passage in Genesis is repeated throughout the Bible. Psalms, Romans, Galatians, Hebrews, and James all reference this passage. Why? When a man or woman decides to have FAITH in God, immediately God imputes RIGHTEOUSNESS to them. Yes this is only the beginning of...

The Longevity Of God’s Promise

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Genesis 12:2 I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. O-bservation: God told Abram that He would build a great nation out of him. God told him that he, Abram, would be a blessing to many. A-pplication: This story proves "The Longevity Of God’s Blessing." Certainly Abraham's view of this promise and our present day view are vastly different. Shortly after the promise, Abraham was given cattle and sheep from the Pharaoh of Egypt. Then he rescued his nephew,...

Take Your Only Son And Sacrifice Him!

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Genesis 22:2 Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.” O-bservation: Abraham was an old man when God asked him to “Take Your Only Son And Sacrifice Him.” Abraham had an older son named Ishmael by his wife Sarah’s handmaiden, Hagar. Ishmael was blessed, but God did not recognize Ishmael as the promised son God would give Abraham. The promised one was Isaac, and now God was asking Abraham to...

Only Through Faith

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Romans 4:13 It was not through the law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. O-bservation: When God promised Abraham that he would become the heir of the world, Abraham didn’t accomplish it through work ethic or law-abiding. No! It was “Only Through Faith.” When Abraham believed for a promised son, he moved forward by faith, and God blessed him with a son at one hundred years of age! A-pplication: Now don’t get me wrong, it will require work...
