 1 JUN 22 Wednesday SOAPS DEVO

(Scripture, Observation, Apply, Pray, Share)

Reading Plan: Psalm 101; Isaiah 4:2-6; Ephesians 4:1-16; Matthew 8:28-34

S- I will refuse to look at anything vile and vulgar.  I hate all who deal crookedly; I will have nothing to do with them. I will reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil.  Psalm 101:3-4

O- God is holy and he has expectations that we are to be holy too.  The psalmist is committing his life to love what God loves and hate what God hates.  Righteousness takes offense to evil and calls us to renounce it.  It also calls us to embrace the ways of God.  Starting with what the eyes see is a good place to start and the most difficult since we must intentionally stop feeding on trash visually.

A- I will commit to the practical way of not engaging in vile and vulgar media and setting up my profiles not to be exposed to such material.  I will pray for those that engage and promote perverse ideas and evil, and share the good news with them.

P- Lord, you call us to be in the world and not of it.  Help us to stand firm in our faith against vile and perverse things.  Help us to engage the lost where they are and help us not to affirm their ways, but shine in their darkness. Amen.

S- K, L, E
