The Eyes Of The Lord!

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 2 Chronicles 16:9a For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the whole earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. lol O-bservation: This is the story of the sad ending of Asa, king of Judah. He did lead Judah for 41 years, and God was with him, but he settled for what he thought would be easier than trusting God toward the end. Baasha, the king of Israel, laid a siege on Judah to prepare to destroy them. Asa had always turned to the Lord before, but this time he...

He Prayed, God Answered

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 2 Chronicles 14:11 Then Asa called to the Lord his God and said, “Lord, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, Lord our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this vast army. Lord, you are our God; do not let mere mortals prevail against you.” O-bservation: Asa was the new king of Judah, and the Bible says he did everything he was supposed to in order to please the Lord.

Fully Committed

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 1 Kings 15:14b Asa’s heart was fully committed to the Lord all his life. O-bservation: Here we see that King Asa determines in his heart that he would be “Fully Committed” to God all the days of his life. His father, King Abijah, had only ruled for three years in Judah and died. He was a wicked king of Judah. But when his son Asa took over, the scripture says that Asa did what was right, just like his father David had done. Did you catch that? David was Asa’s great, great grandfather. Yet...

Here’s God’s Word For You And Me Today And Every Day

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 2 Chronicles 15:7 But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded. O-bservation: These were the words of the prophet Azariah to King Asa of Judah. Asa, the scripture says, did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. When he heard these words from the prophet, he moved to bring great spiritual reform to his nation of Judah. He ruled a long time, but toward the end of his leadership, he relied on unholy alliances to secure peace in Judah instead of the Lord. A-pplication: Isn’t...

For NO Apparent Reason

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 1 Kings 15:11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done. O-bservation: This passage says that Asa did what was RIGHT in the sight of the Lord, as did his father David. This is an Old Testament way of skipping generations in order to remind us all of the covenant God had made with David. Here’s the rest of the story though. Asa was the great-great-grandson Of King David. His great-grandfather Solomon had completely gone the way of the flesh in his latter days, and Rehoboam, Solomon’s...
