How Did It Happen?

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Isaiah 26:12 Lord, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us. O-bservation: The Prophet Isaiah was quick to note that the peace his people had experienced, and everything they had accomplished, was made possible by the Lord. A-pplication: Quite often I'll notice that things are going very well in my life. Don't get me wrong, I have my share of challenges. You know, family, job, relationships, bills, the normal stuff. But then I look around and think things are really going great. The next question is, "How Did It Happen?"...

It Hurt For My Good

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Hebrews 12:11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. O-bservation: The writer makes it clear that all discipline hurts in one way or another. It seems unfair and painful at the time, but in time all of us have learned, "It Hurt For My Good." A-pplication: When I was a little boy and willfully disobeyed, my father would discipline me with a spanking. Oftentimes I would bend over and he would say, "Now son, this...

He’s Been Good To Me

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Psalm 13:6 I will sing the Lord’s praise, for he has been good to me. O-bservation: If you read this entire chapter, you will learn of David’s lament over the fact that he is constantly in trouble. He asks the Lord how many more times his enemies will triumph over him. Then he closes out by saying, I'm going to praise the Lord because, "He's Been Good To Me." A-pplication: Think about it. How many times does David lose a battle in his life? Certainly not very often, but when you look at this chapter you...

A Different Kind Of Pregnancy

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Psalm 7:14 Whoever is pregnant with evil conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment. O-bservation: This is an amazing statement by King David. He was surrounded by heathen nations and had witnessed first-hand people full or "PREGNANT" with evil. He said that the offspring of a person "PREGNANT" with evil is "DISILLUSIONMENT." A-pplication: Certainly this idea of being pregnant with evil wasn't written last month. This passage was written thousands of years ago. Yet all of us have seen the kind of babies that come from people pregnant with evil. If we've ever witnessed "Disillusionment" in...

Does It Help Others

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 1 Corinthians 10:23 I have the right to do anything, you say — but not everything is beneficial. I have the right to do anything — but not everything is constructive. O-bservation: It’s true that the grace of God through our Lord Jesus Christ has freed us from the law of sin and death. Yet, as believers, we are called to be holy examples of a faith-filled life to both believers and unbelievers alike. Paul said, “Follow me as I follow Christ.” (1 Cor. 11:1) So if a believer wants to insist that he...
