Kids Are Our Connection To Heaven

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” O-bservation: Jesus had been discussing marriage with a group of Jewish keepers of the law when people began bringing their children to Him for a blessing. The disciples tried to forbid them, but Jesus said, “Don’t try and stop them, because KIDS Are Our Connection To HEAVEN.” A-pplication: Up until a certain age, children have no agenda save for the basics: food, sleep, and bodily function. They have a deep...

R-E-S-P-E-C-T!! Really???

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Matthew 5:11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me." O-bservation: These are the words of our blessed Lord from His famous “Sermon on the Mount.” He said we would be blessed by heaven when being insulted here on earth. He said the prophets of old received the same kind of treatment (v. 12b). A-pplication: Today the idea of RESPECT is enormous in our culture. The slightest bit of disrespect shown to anyone seldom goes unnoticed without major response from the one being...

Mindset

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. O-bservation: As "Followers of Jesus," our directive has to do with the location of our "Mindset." Here, the Apostle Paul clearly states that our "Mindset" should be established in heaven as opposed to on earth. A-pplication: In no way is Paul saying that we're to be so Heavenly Minded we're no Earthly Good. NO! Instead he's telling us to be Heavenly minded is to make us really good for the earth. Jesus was always Paul's mark. In every situation, Jesus was a better thinker...

When The Storm Hits

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Psalm 107:29 He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. O-bservation: Five different times in this chapter the Psalmist tells us that Israel had problems beyond their ability to cope. Usually, they cried to God and God would make a way but a couple of times God made a way even when they couldn’t seem to cry out. On this one occasion, they were in such a storm and the waves were crashing so that those on board looked like drunken sailors because they could not hold their...

No Batteries Needed

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: Revelation 22:5a There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. O-bservation: The prophet, John the Beloved, gives some very interesting information concerning heaven when he tells us that in heaven, we will no longer need everything we depended on for light in the past. There will be no night there, and God will bring the light like nothing we have ever witnessed in the past. A-pplication: When my sons were young and their birthday rolled...
