God Uses Infirmities to Keep Paul Humble
Rom 15:15 Nevertheless, brethren (Christians), I (Paul) have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the *grace (strenght to continue) that is given to me (Paul) of God,
2Co 12:7-10 *And lest I (Paul) should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted (become self-righteous) above measure. 2Co 12:8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. 2Co 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2Co 12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
The Nine Strengths of the Holy Spirit

Gal 5:19-21 Sixteen Evil Fruits of Lucifer: Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; (1) Adultery, (2) fornication, (3) uncleanness, (4) lasciviousness, Gal 5:20 (5) Idolatry, (6) witchcraft, (7) hatred, (8) variance, (9) emulations, (10) wrath, (11), seditions, (12) heresies, Gal 5:21 (13) Envyings, (14) murders, (15) drunkenness, (16) revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you (Christians) before, as I (Paul) have also told you in time past, that they (children of darkness 1Thess 5:5) which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
1Th 5:5 You (Christians) are all the children of light (God), and the children of the day: we are not of the night (Lucifer), nor of darkness.
Php 3:18 (For many (unsaved) walk, of whom I (Paul) have told you often, and now tell you (Christians) even weeping, that they (unsaved) are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
2Co 11:13-15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan (title of Lucifer) himself is transformed into an angel of light. 2Co 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

*Gentles Receive the New Birth: Joh 1:11-14 He came unto his own (Jews), and his own received him not. Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Joh 1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Joh 1:14 And the Word was made flesh (Jesus), and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
*The Light of the World: Joh 8:12-16 Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. Joh 8:13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, you bear record of yourself; your record is not true. Joh 8:14 Jesus answered and said unto them, though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but you cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. Joh 8:15 You judge after the flesh; I judge no man. Joh 8:16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
