 21 MAY 22 Saturday SOAPS DEVO

(Scripture, Observation, Apply, Pray, Share)

Reading Plan: Psalm 75, 76; Proverbs 21; 2 Thes. 3:1-18; Matt. 7:13-21

S- The Lord is more pleased when we do what is right and just than when we offer him sacrifices. Proverbs 21:3

O- We want to please people in our relationships and feel it is about the ultimate sacrifice.  In day-to-day life, God is pleased when we follow the truth and do what is right.  Jesus said, it is finished and that completed the sacrifice that made a relationship with God possible.  As his children, we learn to walk in his ways to the glory of his name, which makes God happy.

A- I will pursue the virtues of righteousness, justice, and truth.  I will learn to walk in his ways and obey his commands in order to show love to him.

P- Lord, we desire to live our lives in a manner that would be pleasing to you and pursue what you have told us are essential in life.  Help us to stay focused, to be diligent, and committed to your ways, amen.
