[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 20]] ## Title: What Do You Boast About? ## Scripture: (Psalm 20:7-8) “Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we depend on the Lord our God. They will fall down, but we will stand firm.” (NET) ## Observation: Someone once said that you can tell a lot about someone by what they brag about. I once spoke with a great singer and worship leader. We were talking about a recent church service where he led the music. He bragged about how many stand ovations he received from hitting the high notes in the songs he led. It was easy to see where his heart was. He was not excited that people worshiped the Lord. He was excited that he was “worshiped.” On the other hand, I have talked with people who have experienced great success in their lives. While hearing their story, they continue to talk about how the Lord had opened doors and gave them His favor. You could tell from their story, they realized that the true architect of their success was the kindness of the Lord. There is nothing wrong with being proud of accomplishments, but it is important to remember where they come from. You can say thank you for a great compliment and give glory to the Lord at the same time. Be careful to always remember where all the good things of life come from. To God be the glory. ## Application: What do you need to celebrate the Lord for today? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for the million little miracles You work every day that we do not even realize.
