S. O. A. P.

Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!

S-cripture:

Isaiah 2:22

Stop trusting in mere humans, who have but a breath in their nostrils. Why hold them in esteem?

O-bservation:

The Spirit of the Lord was very direct as He spoke through the Prophet Isaiah. He said to His people, Israel, that they were to stop trusting in “MERE” humans who were no stronger than them. They were not to be esteemed!

A-pplication:

Who really has our back? I can tell you that only Jesus really has our back! One of our core values here in Miami has always been “Honor Is Our Calling.” So we don’t care who a person is, we will always treat them with honor. However, the idea of “Esteeming” one higher than the other falls under the category of “What’s in it for me?” Which now moves you from a life of “Christian Service” to a life of “Politics.” Politics will always deny GOD. Politics will always label people. It asks the question, “Who can help me in my pursuit of ME?” Christian service asks the question, “Who can I serve in pursuit of Jesus?” Jesus is the only One any of us can really trust. There will always be a human somewhere who is vying for our “ESTEEM,” and then there’s Jesus. “Trust … Whoever Has Your Back.”

P-rayer:

Dear Jesus,

Thank You that You always stand ready to help me when no one else will. This AM I will trust YOU. Only You really have my back. Amen
