August 16 – Be a Temple


“Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?  For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 -  (NASB)

Today's verse is a reminder, another lesson in the truth that we do not live our Christian lives by ourselves.  Abiding in us is the Spirit of God who we was given to us when we believed and received Jesus as our Savior.  All of us need to be conscious regarding how God works with us and within us when we accept Jesus.  God knows our needs and He knows we need help constantly if we are going to live a life pleasing to Him.  So we are reminded of the gift of God the Holy Spirit, He lives in us to make us realize what it means to be a child of God.  Our promise is this, we have been purchased, bought with a price that cost Jesus His life and we have been purchased in order to glorify God by the way we live and how we treat our bodies.  This is a tough promise to live up to but God is here with us.  He knows and He will help if we let Him.
