December 2023
During this holiday season, take time to read and reflect on the coming of our savior by reading the gospel accounts. Use the devotional method below for your personal time of study and prayer:
S.O.A.P. is a simple method for reading and applying God’s word to our lives. It stands for Scripture, Observation, Application and Prayer and involves four simple steps:
- Scripture – Read a short Bible passage out loud and/or write it out. Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you as you read and look for any specific words or phrases that stand out and write them down.
- Observation – What do you notice about the verses? What do you think the main message is? What verses, words or ideas jump out to you?
- Application – Ask God how he wants you to apply the verse to your own life. What do you need to do today because of the passage? How do you need to think differently?
- Prayer – Have a list of things you’re asking God to do for you or others. Start by thanking God for things then move to requests.
You can choose your own scripture or reading plan or use the one provided for this Series.
