Spiritual Self Evaluation Bible Study

By -

I recently read two books that challenged and inspired me: Love Gives Life:  A Study of 1 Corinthians 13  by Evan May Crazy Love by Francis Chan The first is a short book that encouraged me to live out love as described in 1 Corinthians 13, the "love chapter" of the Bible.  After reading that book, I saw a video of Francis Chan and decided to read Crazy Love .  It exhorted me not only to live out God's love, but also to think specifically about all of my actions (or inactions) in light of my relationship with God.  I was to categorize myself as lukewarm or obsessed.  While I might have argued that I was somewhere in between, Francis Chan is right that " If I stop pursuing Christ, I am letting our relationship deteriorate."   The following Bible study is a compilation of Bible verses (many from the chapter "Profile of the Lukewarm" in Crazy Love ) to help believers evaluate their relationship with God.   Thi

Most know the story behind It Is Well With My Soul.   You can find it here .  The hymn is powerful because Horatio G. Spafford's words echoed God's Word. It Is Well With My Soul by Horatio G.

Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say, It is well, it is well, with my soul. James 1:2-4 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in noth

Chris Tomlin wrote How Great Is Our God while contemplating Psalm 104 and the greatness and majesty of the Lord . The first verse definitely echoes that psalm, but then expands to some features of God's greatness. It beautifully brings together Old and New Testament truths about our great God. How Great Is Our God by Chris Tomlin, Ed Cash, and Jesse Reeves Verse 1 : The splendor of a King, Clothed in majesty, Psalm 104:1 Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great; You are clothed with splendor and majesty , Let all the Earth rejoice All the Earth rejoice. 1 Chronicles 16:31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice ; And let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.” He wraps himself in light, And darkness tries to hide, Psalm 104:2 Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak , stretching out heaven like a tent curtain. And trembles at His voice Trembles at His voice. Joel 3:16 The Lord roars from Zion and utters His voice
