Our Bodies are Temples of the Holy Spirit
What good is a prayer, if we don't know what to pray for, or we pray a prayer in opposition to the work God is doing in us?
Like in the book “The Shack,” God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit manifested themselves to come to your home for dinner; what would you feed them?
Corinthians 6:19-20, “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were brought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.”
Would you hide the booze except for a bit of wine? Would you require proof of vaccination?
Solomon’s wisdom to his son, “Son, guard, protect, and be careful of your thought life. Keep our heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.”
God wants us to present our bodies, minds, and heart to Him so that he may transform us in His image as he created us to be.
Here is a recent update on Ukraine from Scott Ritter, a dependable source. What makes him a trustworthy source is he has people in touch on the ground and inside.
11When Solomon had finished the house of the LORD and the royal palace, successfully carrying out all that was in his heart to do for the house of the LORD and for his own palace, 12the LORD appeared to him at night and said to him:
“I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13If I close the sky so there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among My people, 14and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
15Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. 16For I have now chosen and consecrated this temple so that My Name may be there forever. My eyes and My heart will be there for all time.
If we pray to God to show us the truth, where do we expect to find it, from whom, and how will it be delivered? Just as Solomon built his temple, we must prepare ours to receive God’s truth and our hearts, mind, and bodies to receive the Holy Spirit as our guest and dwell in us to lead and guide us as Jesus promised. The truth sought and prayed for will come from places, people, and events we never thought possible. Just as the sacred truth of our salvation came from John the Baptist and Jesus came as a carpenter, not a King, but was the King of Kings. Many people rejected the truth because they did not accept he person that delivers it, just like John and Jesus was rejected.
If our bodies are the temple of God, and we pray to cleanse that temple, is it not logical we should seek to remove all things not from God from that temple? We just let the world, and as God has shown me, the evilest people in the world have access to our bodies, our temple, because we were afraid of a virus they, the worst people in the world, created. Now we let them sacrifice our children and leverage our children's and grandchildren's future for their gain; again, we give power and enrich the evilest people in the world.
Now we let them break down our God given ability to fight off any and all sickness and illness with Fear, fear creates stress, stress breaks down all the walls of protection between our temple and the evil of this world. There is no defense for those who killed our babies with lethal injection. They cannot say they did not know, or was just doing their job, and for sure cannot say they were attempting to save lives.
There is no defense for those who killed our babies with lethal injection. They cannot say they did not know or were doing their job, and the liars cannot say they were attempting to save lives. Now we let them break down our God-given ability to fight off any sickness and illness with Fear; Fear creates stress, and stress breaks down all the walls of protection between our temple and the evil of this world.
Here we go again!
