1 Some REAL Resolutions 2 Corinthians 13:5

2 “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? – Unless indeed you are disqualified.” 2 Corinthians 13:5

3 Examination is something that is important from time to time. With 2012 approaching it is a good time to examine. In our lessons today we want to notice some underlying issues that could hinder us from achieving our goals.

4 Seek First the Kingdom of God Matthew 6:33 This is the key to everything Kingdom – means the dominion of a king (ruler) Ours is a spiritual kingdom – Jn. 18:36, Lk. 17:20-21

5 Seek First the Kingdom of God It means: Serving God is our greatest priority. Joshua 24:15 Why are we REALLY here? Luke 14:33, 26-27 Matt. 10:37-38

6 Seek First the Kingdom of God It means: Serving Him is the FIRST thing we will do. Our priority to make Him first! Life is uncertain - Jas. 4:14, Heb. 9:27

7 Seek First the Kingdom of God The FIRST thing we will do. His apostles understood this – Matt. 4:20-22, 9:9, John 1:35-42 Luke 17:6-10, NO excuses - 9:57-62

8 Seek First the Kingdom of God Do we REALLY take this command seriously? What does our conduct say? When He is first, it will influence everything we do.

12 Love God will all your heart How do we demonstrate this love? By keeping His commandments! 1 John 5:2-3, 2:3-5

13 Love God will all your heart Do we take our love for Him seriously? Unlike the world? Titus 1:16, Matt. 7:21-23, Lk. 6:46
