Your Body is the Temple of God

Man is a creation of God, as we read in Genesis 2:7:

1 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Your body is the temple of God, as we read in 1 Corinthians 6:19–20:

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Remember that you are the temple of God:

16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. (1 Corinthians 3:16–17)

As Christians, we should not do anything that will change the core of our being, hence defiling the temple of God.

Pray to God daily. Ask Him for protection and help in the name of Christ Jesus, our Lord and our Saviour.

Listen to The Hiding Place, a beautiful hymn by Bryan Jeffrey Leech, sung by Paul Sandberg.

Let the music and the lyrics soothe your troubled mind.
