#soap # Ezekiel 45 ## Title: Measuring What Matters ## Scripture: (Ezekiel 45:1) “‘When you allot the land as an inheritance, you will offer an allotment to the Lord, a holy portion from the land; the length will be 8¼ miles and the width 3⅓ miles. This entire area will be holy. (NET) ## Observation: Comparison is one of the most dangerous things we can do. It can take something special and make it feel worthless. The quickest way to forget how blessed you are is to compare your life to someone else’s. It’s also not a fair comparison because we do not know what is really going on. In the passage today, the Lord is telling them to measure the size of the House of God. This is amazing because it is reminding them that His glory is coming back. If we are going to measure anything, let’s be sure to measure how much of God’s presence we are experiencing and how much room we have made for Him in our lives. ## Application: Take time and think about your life. Have you made room for the Lord? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for wanting to be part of every area of our lives.
