You Belong to God
Dr RJ Sing
“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is within you, whom you have [received as a gift] from God, and that you are not your own [property]?”
Your Body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit. You are God’s dwelling place and His home in this earth. You do not belong to yourself anymore, because your body is a Temple of God. God has paid a tremendous price for you. “What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said: “I will dwell among them and walk among them; And I will be their God, and they shall be My people. ”2 Corinthians 6:16.
You have now become the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. You no longer have anything in common with unbelievers. Therefore, you must be more willing to give up the old crowd in order to walk with Jesus. There must be some boundaries in your life. “None of us lives for himself [for his own benefit, but for the Lord], and none of us dies for himself [but for the Lord].” Romans 14:7.
Never forget that you are the Temple of the God. He lives with you, walks with you and He lives within you now. Do not partake of the things of the world, for the Father has received you to Himself as His Son/Daughter. Always remember that you are the Temple of God.
