Times Of Refreshing

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Proverbs 11:25 A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. O-bservation: Here the wise man, Solomon, promoted the law of the harvest. A generous person will prosper. That’s just the way it is. But then he introduced another truth. Those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed. This word refreshed means to be revived and renewed.

The Generous Christian Citizen

Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.” O-bservation: Before David's death, he prepared the treasury of Israel to be able to fund the Temple his son Solomon would build.

God Needs Nothing BUT Does Mark The Generous

S. O. A. P. Here's your 90 second AM devotional! S-cripture: Psalm 50:12 If I were hungry I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.

A Generous Prayer Warrior

S. O. A. P. Here's your 90 second AM devotional! S-cripture: Acts 10:4b The angel answered, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God.” O-bservation: The Roman centurion Cornelius did not know Jesus, but He continuously prayed to God and gave money to the poor. In time, God sent an angel to speak to Cornelius and told him his prayers and his giving had gotten God's attention. St. Peter was brought to Cornelius’ home and his entire family was saved and filled with the Holy Spirit. The story of Peter preaching at the "House of Cornelius" was the...
