SOAP is the daily devotional plan at River of Life Church. SOAP is a simple process that includes reading a selected passage of Scripture, writing down an Observation or two, committing to an Application, and engaging in Prayer. This is a 12 part devotional plan throughout the entire year and we recommend starting with part 1.

SCRIPTURE

Take your time reading each chapter and allow God to speak to you. Look for a verse that particularly spoke to you and write it in your journal.

OBSERVATION

What do you think God is saying to you in this scripture? Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you and reveal Jesus to you. Paraphrase and write this scripture down in your own words in your journal.

APPLICATION

Personalize what you have read, by asking yourself how it applies to your life right now. Write how this scripture can apply to you today.

PRAYER

This can be as simple as asking God to help you use this scripture, or it may be a greater insight on what He may be revealing to you. Remember, prayer is a two-way conversation, so be sure to listen to what God has to say and journal about it.
