Pastor Leon’s SOAP: Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer

August 27: Jeremiah 52; Revelation 1; Psalm 143-144

Scripture: Psalm (NIV) 144:14 Our oxen will draw heavy loads. There will be no breaching of the walls, no going into captivity, no cry of distress in our streets.
15 Blessed are the people of whom this is true; blessed are the people whose God is the LORD.

Observation: In verses 12 the people are blest because of their sons and daughters. In verses 13 and 14 they are blest because their barns are full, their herds increased and their oxen are strong. In verse 15 the psalmist sums it all up with one final statement: they are blest because none other than God is their LORD!

Application: Of all the blessings that have come into my life, the bottom line is that God is my LORD! There can be no greater blessing than this!

Prayer: Lord, how blest I am to belong to you. How blest I am to be your servant. My life is yours. Use me as you desire. Amen
