May 2, 2016: SOAP #2342: 1Chronicles 16; Psalm 106; Matthew 19

Scripture: 1Chronicles (NIV) 16:15 He remembers his covenant forever, the word he commanded, for a thousand generations, 16 the covenant he made with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac. 17 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant: 18 “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion you will inherit.”

Observation: In David’s song, he reminded the people of God’s promise that can be read in Genesis 17:8 and four or five other places in Genesis.

Application: Almost every time I hear or read about Israel in the news, I remember that God keeps His promises! I am reminded that God is still interested in the affairs of people and nations! I am reminded that His promises to me are also reliable.

Prayer:   Heavenly Father, you are the GREAT PROMISE KEEPER! Thank you for your faithfulness in keeping your promises to Israel. Thank you for being faithful in keeping your promises to me. Amen
