HONOR THE TEMPLE OF GOD
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NLT
TODAY’S THOUGHT
Two incredible thoughts in today’s passage—first, my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and secondly, I should honor God with my body.
Being the temple of the Holy Spirit means that God is with me—today and every day. Wherever I go and whatever I do the Holy Spirit is with me. He is there to guide, protect, teach, and empower me to be the best I can be.
I honor God with my body when I refrain from things that will destroy or harm my body. I also honor God with my body when I discipline my body through proper eating, exercise, and sleep.
If we believe in excellence that honors God, then we should relate that to our physical bodies as well. We should take care of the temple God has given us.
How are you honoring the temple God has given you? Maybe today would be a good day to ask God for a breakthrough in your physical body. Asking God to give you the wisdom and discipline you need to be able to honor God with your body.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Holy Spirit I believe that You are living in me. I believe that You are my Teacher and Guide. I ask You to show me how I can honor God with my body. Give me to discipline to honor You with my body.
