NOW THAT MY BODY IS THE TEMPLE

1 CORINTHIANS 6:19-20:

"DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE (THE VERY SANCTUARY) OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO LIVES WITHIN YOU. WHOM YOU HAVE RECEIVED [AS A GIFT] FROM GOD? YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN.
  YOU WERE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE [PURCHASED WITH A PRECIOUSNESS AND PAID FOR, MADE HIS OWN] SO THEN, HONOR GOD AND BRING GLORY TO HIM IN YOUR BODY."

Now that my body Is the Temple of The Holy Spirit, redeemed, cleansed, and justified by the Blood of The Lamb, then I choose too keep it that way. 

By, living His Word. By, speaking as I know His Word. Releasing myself, along with other captives by known truths, exposing the lie. Witnessing His Life in my body, and being His Temple to express Himself there. 

Micah 6:8; says it so well, "He has shown you o man what is good, and what does The Lord require of thee, but to justly, love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God." 

In the Word of 1 Corinthians 6, the first thing asked was, "Do you not know..." 
My friends, others who may be reading this, and those who may not know if they have received The Holy Spirit since they have believed on Jesus as Savior. Many do not know that He Is there in their spirit's, and their life in Christ. 

Paul taught the people that some sins are done outside the body, but sexual looseness, immoral thoughts, words, and actions with those thoughts, are still done by the temple your body, and done there where The Spirit lives. Someone once said, live like this;

Everywhere you go He goes, everything you hear, He hears, and everything you say is held by Him to be weighed out, judged as so or a lie. Remember, everything you are looking at He has to see too.

Be in love with The Lord in you, and take good care of Him. Think on Who you live for, and Who you will live with for all eternity.
