The Cup Of Salvation

THE CUP OF SALVATION

OBSERVATION:

YOU FIND VARIOUS REFERENCES TO THE WORD CUP MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE. YOU FIND LITTLE REFERENCE TO THE CUP OF SALVATION. THE AUTHOR OF PSALM 116 PRAISES THE LORD FOR ANSWERED PRAYER FOR DELIVERANCE . THIS WAS THE PSALMIST PRAYER FOR A LIFETIME.

INTERPRETATION:

PSALMS 116:13 (NKJV) I WILL TAKE UP THE CUP OF SALVATION, AND CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD.

POINTS TO PONDER:

THE LORD PROVED HIMSELF GRACIOUS TO THE PSALMIST. THE PSALMIST WAS ENCOURAGED AND COMMITTED HIMSELF TO LIFE LONG PRAISE. THE PSALMIST HAD NOT LOST FAITH AND HOPE DURING A GREAT TIME OF TROUBLE. THIS ENCOURAGEMENT GAVE HIM STRENGTH TO EDIFY OTHERS IN THEIR TIME OF TROUBLE.

YOU CAN HAVE A DEEP RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD BY DRINKING DEEPLY INTO THE CUP OF SALVATION.

APPLICATION:

THE CUP OF SALVATION IS INFINITE LOVE THROUGH CHRIST’S SACRIFICE ON CALVARY. YOU MUST “TAKE” THE CUP OF SALVATION NOT MAKE THE CUP OF SALVATION. SIMPLE ADMIRATION AND WONDER WILL NOT SUFFICE. DRINK DEEPLY FROM THE CUP OF HIS SALVATION!
