September 12, 2016: SOAP #2475:  Daniel 3-4; Psalm 81; Revelation 17

Scripture:  Psalm (NIV) 81:1 Sing for joy to God our strength; shout aloud to the God of Jacob!

Observation:   The Psalmist was not rejoicing because God is strong, but because God is our strength!   It was personal!   Now, that is a reason to rejoice!  In Psalm (NIV) 62:11 David wrote, “One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard: that you, O God, are strong, 12 and that you, O Lord, are loving.”

Application: If God is my strength, then my weakness is not a factor.   If God is my strength, then the power of my enemy is not a factor.  I too can sing for joy to God my strength!

Prayer:   Heavenly Father, You are my strength!  In You I have reason to rejoice! Amen
