Pastor Leon’s SOAP: Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer

June 11: Song of Solomon 5-8; Philippians 1

Scripture: Philippians (NIV) 1:4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 Because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 6 Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Observation: As Paul prayed for the believers in the city of Philippi, he prayed with confidence, not so much with confidence in their ability, but with confidence in God’s ability to complete what God started.

Application: I need to live each day with confidence in God’s ability and willingness to complete the work that he has started in me. This includes my salvation and any ministry the Lord has assigned me. This includes being a husband, a father, and a bus driver.

Prayer: Lord, The more I keep you current in my thoughts the more I have confidence that you are both able and willing to complete what you have started in me. Amen
