Reading the Bible can feel intimidating sometimes. But one simple way of studying Scripture is called S.O.A.P. It stands for "Scripture," "Observation," "Application," and "Prayer." We'll show you how—it's easy!

S: Scripture

If you haven't already, read today's passage of Scripture. Then summarize it in your own words.

O: Observation

Read Matthew 8:14–17 again.

• What stands out to you?
• What does it teach us about God's ability to heal?
• What questions do you still have?

A: Application

• Jesus wants to heal us. What's a hurt you need Jesus to hold for you this week?
• What's one way you can thank God for the healing Jesus provides?
• How would you grow when you trust God to heal you?

P: Prayer

Spend some time in prayer about a painful experience you need to bring to Jesus for healing. Ask for comfort and help, trusting God's plan during your suffering. Then, say thank you for God's intervention in your life.
