myself before God. (vs. 1a)

a. God is more interested in my availability than

my abilities.

b. There is no place in God’s kingdom for my

pride.

2. My faith will work best when I allow God to be God,

and learn to be content with His plan for my life.

(vs. 1b)

3. Strengthening my faith will require quieting my

life.

4. Growing my faith will require more godliness and

less worldliness.

one thing and given to another:

heaven.

ii. From self-righteousness to the

righteousness of another.

iii. From sin to holiness.

iv. From self to God. –G.R.

5. Strong, Godly Faith will require my constant

devotion and focus upon God.
