5 DEC 22 Monday SOAPS Devotional
(Scripture, Observation, Apply, Pray, Share)
Reading Plan: Psalm 25; Isa. 5:8-12, 18-23; 1 Thes. 5:1-11; Luke 21:20-28
The Second week of Advent
Have you repented and trusted Jesus? What are you waiting for?
S- For you know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night. When people are saying, Everything is peaceful and secure, then disaster will fall on them as suddenly as a pregnant woman’s labor pains begin. And there will be no escape. 1 Thes. 5:2-3
O- As believers we look forward with great expectation for the best day of our earthly lives seeing Jesus face to face. Paul gives a stark reality to those that do not know Jesus, that is to say, that are not among the elect. It will be a terrible day for the lost. Jesus will come unexpectedly, so don’t delay in repenting and trusting Jesus.
A- I will live with an expectant heart to see my God and king face to face. I will share the gospel with those who don’t know Jesus.
P- Lord Jesus, during this advent season our minds and hearts are warmed for the first Advent when Jesus came as a baby. We look forward in anticipation of his second coming as a mighty king gathering his people to himself. It is a joy to the world of believers, but a horror for the world of lost sinners. Even so, come Lord Jesus come. Amen
S- P, C
