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

July 22: Isaiah 36-37; Psalm 76; 1Peter 1

Scripture: 1Peter (NIV) 1:15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do;
16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”

Observation: Some people feel that the end goal is so important that it is acceptable to use any means to accomplish it, but not God. He is not only interested in the end result of our actions, He is interested that they method we use to reach the goal is also holy.

Application: Of all God’s characteristics, I may want to be omnipotent, omniscient, or omnipresent. But God wants me to be holy! Being holy is so important to God that He sent His son to pay for all my sin and He sent His Holy Spirit to lead me into living a holy life in this present world.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I need the help of your Holy Spirit to be holy “in all I do.” Amen
