Proverbs 7-9, Romans 9
Proverbs 7
Another Warning about Immoral Women
verses 2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
God's commandments give us life. But we have to keep them dear to our heart, bound upon our fingers.
I am committing to reading my Bible daily and following God's commandments as found in his Word. In this I will have life.
Lord, please help me to be faithful in this plan to read and follow your Word on a daily basis.
==================
What is S.O.A.P.?
S.O.A.P. stands for Scripture, Observation, Application and Prayer. It is a way of getting more out of your time in God's word. We did not invent it, we just decided to make a website to make it easier to do.
How does it work?
It's quite simple. When you sit for your daily quiet time read the bible as you normally would with one simple difference. Underline or make note of any verses that jump out at you with special significance. This is the basis for diving deeper and using S.O.A.P.
Now comes the cool part. Login and create a new SOAP entry. There are four fields to fill in and I bet you can guess what they are:
Scripture Type in the verse or verses that stuck out to you in your reading. You can show the verses and even have them read to you with the click of a button. No copying and pasting blocks of text.
Observation What did you observe about the scripture that struck you. This can be one sentence or a whole book.
Application How can you apply the observation so that it affects your life today.
Prayer Write out a prayer to God based on what you just learned and ask him to help you apply this truth in your life.
