The Corinthians were highly critical of Paul. They criticized his age, writing style, speech, bodily appearance, even his apostleship. Paul responded by writing them two letters admonishing them to examine their own lives instead of criticizing others. In the first, he emphasizes performing a solemn self – examination before observing communion, 1 COR. 11:27-31. In the second, he emphasizes the need to scrutinize themselves to determine their spiritual status.
By examining OURSELVES we can locate ourselves spiritually, promote our own spiritual growth, align ourselves with God’s will, and avoid being critical of others. Receive an understanding of examining ourselves.
As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, let’s consider Who exactly He is Who came and robed Himself in flesh. Instead of seeing Him as a babe only, wrapped in swaddling clothes: let’s remember Him as grace manifested, God’s glory and greatness. Discover more about Who is: Jesus the Word, Jesus the infant, Jesus the man, and Jesus the Savior.
The life of Jesus is wonderful for two reasons. First, no life has ever affected the life of man on earth like His, and only His life offers eternal life to those who believe in Him.
To what length would God go to show His love for fallen man? As spoken in 2 Corinthians 9:15, He gave us the gift beyond words. Philippians 2:5-8 tells how He robed Himself in flesh in the person of His son in order to pay our sin debt and reconcile us to Himself. How do we imitate this kind of love? By laying down our lives for the one who laid down His life for us.

Have we taken the time to study 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-8 (AMPC) so we can understand divine love? Is our motive to become the best Jesus impersonators we can possibly be, so Heaven can call us Jesus “Tribute Artists?”
It’s important to know our authority and to understand how to use our faith. It’s also important to hear what God wants us to do as Jesus and Paul did. Otherwise, we can find ourselves acting in the flesh like Abraham and Sarah, or the seven sons of Sceva! Receive an understanding of Flesh vs Spirit.
We all have glory in earthen vessels. It’s up to us as to what we do with it. Is our goal to become a vessel of honor and to live pleasing to God? Are there changes we need to make? We all must examine ourselves, locate ourselves, and strive to become vessels God can use.
God has been so good to us all that he deserves to find a thankful heart in every one of us. Receive an understanding in Thanking Jesus for Victory.
We all have much to be thankful for. We all should take the time to consider all the contributions people have made in our lives and show our appreciation. No one has contributed more than our Creator and redeemer.
Our Heavenly Father is no different than any earthly father who wants his children to mature and become responsible individuals. He gave us the Five-Fold Ministry Gifts to help us along the way.

Each of us is God’s temple or spiritual house. Each of us is responsible to keep the fire burning in our lives by making sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. God’s glory is His presence, power, peace, promises, provision and protection in manifestation. Each of us is to examine ourselves to be certain we are living a life that pleases God. Each of us is responsible to contribute to the success of the corporate temple by bringing his glory into it.
In John 16:7, Jesus said it was more important for the Spirit to come than for Him to stay. Receive an understanding of having Faith in the Spirit of God.
God is not the reason for the evil in this world. Evil exists because Lucifer acted apart from God’s will for his existence and Adam followed in his footsteps. Everyone begins life on the road to eternal separation and suffering. Receive an understanding of how our faith can change our destiny.
What we do daily impacts our future. God knows we are creatures of habit and this is why He instructs us to hear His Word day and night, not once a week. Receive an understanding of why and how developing the daily habit of meditating in the Word produces success.
Jesus must have taught Paul some things about living our lives to please God and being fruitful Christians. Every believer should have a strong desire to do both and become productive fruit-bearing branches in the vine. Receive an understanding of being fruitful in prayer.
Our God created the universe, the stars, planets and every living thing there is. He made man in His image and His heart was grieved when man rebelled. What gives Him pleasure today is not the universe, but seeing His salvation worked out in our lives. When man sinned, he fell short of God’s glory. In Christ, that glory is restored! Let’s please Him by allowing Him to have His way in and through us.
In John 14:21-24, Jesus is looking for love-based obedience. The key to obeying is loving. The key to loving is knowing. The key to knowing is reading God’s Word and the more we read His word, the better we get to know God. An abundant life begins with becoming a serious student of the Word. Receive an understanding of Abundant Life.
