THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TEMPLE

Every physical temple is laid by human hands with bricks and cement etc. Yes it is usually beautiful. We all admire it. We go in there to have a worship service. That is the temple made by human (flesh). No matter how beautiful and maintained the physical temple is it will go rust someday. But there is this temple owned, furnished and well patterned/structured by God, beautiful and mobile.

Our bodies are the temple of the living God not only that, we are also Gods. Wow! TEMPLE + GOD = Divinity, that is what we are. Don't let tell you otherwise. You have being configured and structured Like a God; let us make man in our own Image and after our likeness-Just like GOD himself. What a privilege to be called his SON. His seal of SONSHIP has made us JUST like him.

Another beautiful thing about the being the temple of God is that sickness, diseases, pain and frustration can not dwell in that body because God has no relationship with the devil. The devil brings illness and anguish but Christ brings’ healing. Which would you rather choose? Even Christ advised us to choose life and blessing. For what communion has light with darkness. When Christ comes in every negative thing gives way. All you find is Joy, happiness etc. He becomes the caretaker of our body.

What makes our body the most beautiful temple?

Originally, if not for the fall of Adam, the first man there might not have a question of beautiful temple because all the temple would have being beautiful. When the bible says our body is the temple of the Lord, it is actually referring to those who are working in accordance with the scriptures, those who are born again. From the moment you give your life to Christ through faith he comes down through the Holy Spirit and fill (dominates) your body.  The Spirit now empowers you to work towards the edification of His name, Jesus.

Not until your body is the temple of the Lord you are not saved. Being saved (born again) makes you a sweet smelling savour unto God. So, all you need to do is to make that confession with your mouth and believe in your that Jesus is Lord then you will be save. Being saved is making is act of making your body the temple of the living God. IF YOU, I mean You are reading this and you are yet to Give your life to CHRIST, then u are missing a big time it is the greatest gift without a THREAT. So make up your mind today. Where do you want to spend eternity, Hell or Heaven? Don’t be deceived they are both REAL.

Your body is the temple of the Lord when you are saved.

How does this temple get stained?

“A man is tempted when he is drawn away out of his own lost”, that is what the bible says. SIN stains the temple.  If don’t run after inequity every day your life God will continue to make you beautiful. Every day you remain Holy and Faithful, He will continually beautify you.   Like Joshua I challenge you, choose you this day whom you will serve.

We often spend a lot of time feeding this physical bodies of ours neglecting the spiritual body. The physical body requires our cash, time we spend in front of the mirror and shopping and many more other activities. One question I won’t to ask is this: How many minutes do you spend with God? Folks are always in a haste to leave the presence of God because of the cares of this world. Some time we often complain of about the preceding pastor/priest of testing taking too much of out time. We no longer want to attend services more than two hours. This gradually stains the temple.

Thanks.

THE FOCAL POINT OF THE CHURCH AND CHURCH LEADERS (2)

In the house of the poor, there are always alot of prayer points. Pastors bind, lose, and raise fire. But is that actually the problem? Poverty will continue if there is no shift in mindset and opportunity created. Majority of the blind men we have in Nigeria and in the world are beggars and in the same countries some are employers of labour. Being blind physically is bad but it is worst when it is the blindness of the mind. With physical eyes you can only see little but with the eyes of the mind you see beyond your next neighbour(s). However in praying for these fellows we should remember that the problem is not always demons or witches but physical hunger. The right kind of teaching should be enforced in our churches today. Some are sick may be the mind kind of sickness. What do you really think is the cause of their sickness? I sometime wonder why teachers of the gospel would see the needy in the church and won't dare to help but keep praying for God's divine help upon their lives. The bible says when we see our enemy hunger and we ask to them to pray, were then is the love of God? I wrote some time ago about the first Church at Antioch (the part 1). We are drifting away from the old landmark. But we have to understand that the church ought to be a place of refuge  for the helpless and the poor.

The time has come for us to live above just preaching to living out the word. People now add to the Bible by teaching contrary things. The bible is not a constitution made by man that can be amended    but the good news is that the bible is the book of life. Stop "painting" the words of God. Stop twisting the bible. The word of God according to the Bible is Yea and Amen; it means it is complete on its own. God did not make mistake about any thing in the bible. Folks may tag me the "old fashioned Christian" for what am about to unveil this year as the spirit leads.

Recently, God drew my attention to something now very common in the society. A pastor will place his and his wife's picture on the church Sign Post. Who are they advertising, the church, themselves or both?  God remains the owner of the church and Him alone. These things never existed before now.  I thinks it just doesn’t matter will be thought of some people. But I think it does that why God drew my attention to it.

There are men who stand on the pulpit only to talk ill of other ministers’ just like I heard this morning a man of God ridiculing a prophet of God. Let’s be careful.
