When You’re Sorry For Those Who’ve Done You Wrong

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Isaiah 21:3 At this, my body is racked with pain, pangs seize me, like those of a woman in labor; I am staggered by what I hear, I am bewildered by what I see. O-bservation: Isaiah, the prophet, lamented in this chapter about the coming destruction of Babylon. God gave him a vision window into what was on the way for this dreaded nation of Babylon. But, when the man of God saw it, he did not rejoice that by this vision coming to pass, his own people would be able to return to...

Just Repent

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Isaiah 13:19 Babylon, the jewel of kingdoms, the pride and glory of the Babylonians, will be overthrown by God like Sodom and Gomorrah. O-bservation: Isaiah, the prophet of God, predicted that just like Sodom and Gomorrah, Babylon's great nation/city would fall. Nebuchadnezzar was a ruthless king. What he built in Babylon was beyond description. This great king built the city into an art, literature, and science center. It became the splendor of the Middle East and the envy of the Assyrians. Yet Babylon became so full of itself that it imploded. In one night,...

Who Is This Mystery Babylon?

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Revelation 18:19 “They will throw dust on their heads, and with weeping and mourning cry out: ‘Woe! Woe to you, great city, where all who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth! In one hour she has been brought to ruin!’” O-bservation: This event happens late in the seven-year tribulation period and just before Christ returns to the earth with the armies of heaven to defeat the Antichrist, the False Prophet, and the rulers of the earth. They will all be chained to hell, the scripture tells us in Revelation 19....

While In Babylon

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Romans 13:2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. O-bservation: Here, St. Paul lays down the Christian mandate for civilians who are “Followers Of Christ.” He says, “Obey Them!” Anything having to do with rebellion against them will only bring judgment on the believer. Those who don’t follow Jesus have no stake in this matter, but those who do must obey. Why? God Himself has established leadership. A-pplication: If every believer in Jesus in this country and around the world...

Keep On Singing

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Psalm 137:4 How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign land? O-bservation: Here the writer asked, “How can we sing the songs of the Lord in a foreign land?” Obviously Israel had been overtaken, captured, and forced to live in the heathen place called Babylon. A-pplication: It’s probably time to ask we “Followers of Christ” when we should sing praise to the Lord and when we shouldn’t sing praise to the Lord. Here’s a few questions. Should we sing praise to the Lord when we’re sick? How about when we’re struggling financially? Should...
