Welcome to Good Morning Girls!

I am so glad you are here! Before we begin this new session, I want to take the time and let you know that YOU have been prayed for! It is not a coincidence you are in this online Bible study. My prayer for you this session is simple, that you will grow closer to our Lord as you dig into His Word each and every day! As you develop the discipline of being in Gods Word on a daily basis, I pray you will fall in love with Him even more as you spend time reading from His Word. Each day before you read the assigned scripture(s), pray and ask God to help you understand it. Invite Him to speak to you through His Word. Then listen. Its His job to speak to you and your job to listen and obey. Take time to read the verses over and over again. We are told in Proverbs to search and you will find. Search for it like silver, and hunt for it like hidden treasure. Then you will understand respect for the Lord, and you will find that you know God. [Prov. 2:4-5 NCV] I cant wait to get started and I hope to see you at the finish line endure, persevere, press on and dont give up! Lets finish well what we are beginning today. I will be here every step of the way cheering you on! We are in this together fight to rise early, to push back the stress of the day, to sit alone and drink a tall glass of Gods living water! I cant wait to see what God has in store for us this session! Lets get started week 1 will be simple but hold on for the ride because when it picks up and God enlightens our hearts with His truth, the excitement will be palpable! Journey with me as we learn to Love God Greatly with our lives!!! - Angela

SOAP Bible Study

The method we use at GoodMorningGirls.org is a simple, slow method.
The point is to fully meditate and take in each and every word in the passage for the day. Psalm 1:2, 3 says: Blessed is the man whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. True meditation takes time to chew on the passage before moving on. William Gurnall writes: Remember, it is not hasty reading but serious meditating upon holy and heavenly truths, that make them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the bees touching of the flower, which gathers honey but her abiding for a time upon the flower, which draws out the sweet. It is not he who reads most but he who meditates most, who will prove the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian. - William Gurnall, The Christian in Complete Armour What is the SOAP Method that the Good Morning Girls use? Get out your Bible and begin: 1. 2. 3. 4.

S Write out the scripture passage for the day. O Write down 1 or 2 observations from the passage. A Write down 1 or 2 applications from the passage. P Pray over what you learned from todays passage.

Some days you feel like you are done quickly. Other days it will take a little more time to complete the days assignment. When you are finished with your work quickly, we encourage you to stop by GoodMorningGirls.org for extra insight or to share what you have learned.

Our Statement of Belief

1. We believe that the Bible is Gods inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word and is the sole written revelation that rules the faith and practice for all Christians and alone can bind the conscience. We believe that God has preserved His Word and that by His power it has been kept from being lost, destroyed, or diluted with error (2 Timothy 3:16; Psalm 119:89; 1 Peter 1:23, 25). 2. We believe in one God, Creator of all things, perfect in love and holiness, Who exists as three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 1 Peter 1:2). 3. We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and entered human form by the miracle of the Virgin Birth, that He lived a sinless life, and that He died for our sins. Christ is the only mediator through whose work we are redeemed. We believe that He rose again on the third day and now sits at the right hand of God as our Advocate (Matthew 1:13-25; John 1:1, 14, 3:16; 1 Corinthians 15:3-7; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 1:3; 1 John 2:1). 4. We believe that the Holy Spirit is God. His ministry is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. We believe that He brings about the new birth, indwells, baptizes, seals, anoints, and endows all who are regenerated with spiritual gifts. The Holy Spirit also leads believers who daily surrender their life to Him by guiding, teaching, sanctifying, and filling them (John 15:26, 16:8, 3:3-6, 14:16-17, 14:26). 5. We believe that all people are created in the image of God. At the same time, because of Adams sin, all people are sinful by nature and choice. Apart from forgiveness through Jesus Christ, all are lost and alienated from God (Genesis 1:27, 3:1-6; Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:1-3). 6. We believe that salvation rests solely on the work of Gods grace for us and in us. We are justified by grace through faith alone. Christs death is the only payment for sin that God will accept. Additionally, the righteousness of Christ is transferred to us by faith and is the only merit or righteousness that God will accept. (Romans 3:23-26, 4:1-3). All who truly believe in Christ are born again and become the children of God (John 1:12-13; Ephesians 2:8-9). All true believers, once saved, are kept by Gods power, not our own, and are thus secure in Christ forever (John 6:37-40, 10:27-30; Romans 8:1, 38-39). 7. We believe in the resurrection of the body. At death the spirits of the saved go immediately to be with the Lord Jesus Christ in Heaven, and the unsaved descend immediately into Hell until the final Day of Judgment. At that time, their bodies shall be raised from the grave: the saved will return to be in Heaven with Christ, the lost will be judged and returned to Hell (Luke 16:19-31, 23:43; Revelation 20:11-15). 8. We believe that the Church consists of all who believe in Jesus Christ as Savior. The local church exists to exalt Christ, encourage believers, and evangelize the world. We believe that every local church is free to govern its own affairs under Christ and should seek to support the unity of all Christ-honoring churches and ministries (Colossians 1:28; Ephesians 4:3-6).
