S.O.A.P

Take a moment to become still. Set aside distractions, quiet your mind, and invite the presence of the Holy Spirit to be with you. Ask for guidance as you enter into this time with Scripture, trusting that God desires to speak personally to you.

The SOAP method is a simple way to engage more deeply with God’s Word. Writing your reflections in a journal can help you slow down, listen more attentively, and recognise how God is moving in your life.

Read and ponder the Scripture deeply. Notice and words or phrases that jump out at you.

Application

Apply these observations to your personal life today. What are these words saying to you - right here and now. What are you being prompted to do in response?

Prayer

What is your prayer to God in response to all of this?
