SOAP 07/05/2015; Psalm 53:2

Today's reading: Psalm 53; Hosea 2, 3, 4, 5; Hebrews 2


S) "God has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men
To see if there is anyone who understands,
Who seeks after God."


Psalm 53:2 (NASB)

O) This psalm is mostly a lament, when it seemed there were no righteous men left. Atheism was springing up, as people were wont to do whatever wicked desire came to their hearts. The alarming thing to realize, is that this psalm was written by David. Oh, how much worse it got.

A) The desire of my heart, is to hear my Father God say, "Well done, my good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Master." In the meantime, I pray that when God looks down from heaven, He might at least find understanding in me, and my family, and that we seek Him in truth.

P) Father, let me take heed to this warning reminder, that You are seeking people who want to please You. I want to be found by You. I want to be found in Christ. Renew a right fear in my heart, that I may have righteous understanding. Let me seek You first, and Your kingdom, and allow everything else to come according to Your promise in Jesus. May Your will be done in my life, and my family. In Jesus's name I pray. Amen.
