S. O. A. P.

Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!

S-cripture:

Revelation 6:9

When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained.

O-bservation:

In this chapter of Revelation, Jesus “The Lamb” opened seven different seals, each representing a judgment to fall upon the earth. This fifth judgment was a result of the persecution the world, throughout history, has put on Christians who have been faithful to God’s Word and have answered the Lord’s call to “Maintain Your Faith.”

A-pplication:

As a pastor of people, I have been in the process these many years of answering God’s call to “Maintain Your Faith.” It’s one thing to say, “Yes, I need my sins forgiven” at some point in life. It’s an entirely different thing to take up one’s cross daily and “Maintain Your Faith.” That means that with God’s help, I am committed to following God’s Word every step of the way. Once again, I’m following God’s Word not out of obligation but as a yielding to His plan for my life. I’ve learned that God’s way is best. Once a person makes that decision. It becomes natural for that person to desire to maintain their faith in Jesus, no matter the cost.

P-rayer:

Dear Jesus,

I am grateful that You have never left me. Since the day I yielded my life to You and said, “Yes, I will follow You,” You have always been there. Because You have kept Your word to me, I am joyful in maintaining my faith in You! Amen
