July 04, 2021: SOAP #4231:  2Kings 15-16; Hosea 1; Hebrews 1

SCRIPTURE:  Hebrews (NIV) 1:10 He also says, “In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.
11 They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
12 You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end.”

OBSERVATION: In this passage we see the temporary nature of “the earth and the heavens.”  They are like a good shirt or pair of pants; the earth and the heavens will wear out and need to be changed. 

But what a difference is seen in God the Son, the creator of the earth and the heavens.  The earth and the heavens will “wear out” and “be changed,” BUT NOT THE SON!   He remains!  There will never be an end to HIS years!  

How illogical to worship creation as the creator!

APPLICATION:  These verses make me better appreciate the ONE who has made me His dwelling place!  Knowing that He is in me should make a big difference in how I talk and act.  Knowing that He is ALWAYS with me should make a big difference in how I talk and act when I am alone, for I am never alone!  

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, You are amazing.  You deserve my attention, my loyalty, my service, and my worship. You are worthy of my all.  Amen
