July 22, 2016: SOAP #2423: Isaiah 36-37; Psalm 76; 1Peter 1

Scripture: Psalm (NIV) 76:1 In Judah God is known; his name is great in Israel. 2 His tent is in Salem, his dwelling-place in Zion.

Observation: It is good to be in a place where God is known, where His name is respected. It is good to be in a place that is known as His dwelling place.   Oh, how I would like to see the above verses written about the United States of America. There may have been a time, but God and His principles are being pushed out of our government, our military, our hospitals, and even many of our churches.

Application: But the only place in which I can make sure God is known, is in my life and my home. I can set my heart and mind as a place where God feels at home. I can make Him welcome in my life and live in a way that makes Him and those around me know that I count it a great honor to have Him living in me.

Prayer:   Heavenly Father, it is my great honor to have your Holy Spirit taking up permanent residence in my life. I pray that it will be a joy to you. Amen
