Worthy of my praise!

Pastor Leon’s SOAP:  Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer
December 26, 2024: SOAP #5502: Psalm 117; 119:81-176; 2John; 3John

SCRIPTURE:  Psalm (NIV) 117:1 Praise the LORD, all you nations; extol him, all you peoples.
2 For great is his love towards us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures for ever. Praise the LORD.

OBSERVATION:   Everyone should praise and extol the LORD!  He is worthy of our most profound thoughts.  I do not believe that anyone has fully reached their zenith in praising our Creator God, in praising our Sacrifice God, in praising our ever-present God! 

His love is great.  He never says, you used up all my love yesterday. 

His faithfulness is beyond our comprehension and endures forever. He is faithful to Himself.  He is faithful to His holiness.  The wages of sin has always been death, and will always be death.  He is faithful to His word.  The better we know His word, the better we will understand His ways. 

APPLICATION:   Be extravagant in praise.  Make His praise glorious.  Attempt new expressions of praise.  Attempt to speak of that which is beyond description. Sing your own words to your favorite praise chorus.  Look around for things for which you have not thanked God.  Tell Him how valuable they are to you and your family.  Look for new things accomplished with, or in, water and thank Him for water. 

PRAYER:  Lord, no one can measure your worth.  You are ever worthy of my praise.  Your acceptance, forgiveness, and promises are my greatest possessions.  Your constant presence is my greatest confidence booster.  I am what I am because you are who you are.   Amen
