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

December 12: Hebrews 5-8

Scripture: Hebrews (NIV) 8:1 Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest…

Observation: In the previous chapter we see that we needed a priest who would serve in a better covenant than the one given to Moses. We needed a priest who would not have to be replaced due to his death. We needed a priest who could actually save us. We needed a priest who would offer one sacrifice that would not have to be repeated every day. And the verse above says, “That is exactly what we got!”

Application: I know I am the creation and He is the creator. It is for me to fit into his plan and do His will. It is for me to relate to Him. But here I see that He fit Himself into my need. He became what I needed. In Jesus, I got what I most needed.

Prayer: Lord, In thanksgiving for what you have done for me, I now want to fit into your need. I want to become what you need. Find me useful. Amen
