April 22, 2016: SOAP #2332: 1Sam 27; Ps 141; 1Chron 9; Matt 10
Scripture: Psalm (NIV) 141:8 But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge— do not give me over to death. 9 Keep me from the snares they have laid for me, from the traps set by evildoers.
Observation: The people around David were setting traps for him. They were intent on destroying him. But the eyes of David’s soul were fixed on the Lord.
Application: When I fix my eyes on my problems, they become bigger. They become bigger than they really are. When I fix my eyes on the Lord, He also becomes bigger. But, what a difference! He never becomes bigger than He really is!!!
Prayer: Heavenly Father, you amaze me. However big my problems, You are bigger still. Amen
