#soap # 1 Samuel 07 ## Title: Make Markers Remembering God’s Help ## Scripture: (1 Samuel 7:12) Samuel took a stone and placed it between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Up to here the Lord has helped us.” (NET) ## Observation: Many times we forget God’s faithfulness because there is never an end to our needs. There’s always another mountain to climb, another problem to solve, or another thought to ponder. However, this means we have to be more careful to celebrate the goodness of God. Samuel has given us a great example. Make markers. This can be done in several ways. We can start a memory journal, a thankfulness or gratitude journal, or something similar. Let it fit your particular personality. ## Application: Remember God’s faithfulness. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for being so very faithful.
