Day Sixteen

On day 16 (yesterday), we reviewed our memory verses. So far, we have memorized Psalm 1, and the first two verses of Series C of the Topical Memory System.

Spend some time this morning reviewing your scripture memory. We haven't spent time learning 1 Corinthians 2: 12 yet, so go ahead and go read that verse in its context.

Read 1 Corinthians 2:6-16. Meditate on that passage, and ask yourself the following questions?
What is Paul saying here?
What role does the Holy Spirit play according to this passage?
What difference should it make to us if we have been given the "Spirit that is from God"?
What is it that we have been "freely given", and what does it mean to "know" or "understand" what we have been freely given?

Now meditate carefully on verse 12. Say it slowly, thinking intently on each word. What is Paul saying? How can these truths encourage us in our daily walk with Christ?

Now, re-word this verse in your own words. Try to explain the meaning to someone else, or explain the meaning of the verse out loud without looking at it.

Review and memorize.
