Temple of the Holy Spirit

Continuation of the 15 things to make 2024 a blessed year.

YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
[1 Corinthians 6:19-20]

BE PRODUCTIVE FOR AS LONG AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN.

In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone. The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [2 Peter 1:5-8]

USE WISDOM AND CARE FOR YOUR PHYSICAL BODY.

And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. [Romans 12:1]

PHYSICAL EXERCISE HELPS YOU PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, AND SPIRITUALLY.

Dear friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit. [3 John 2:2]

THE MORE YOU CAN DO TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY THE MORE PRODUCTIVE YOU CAN BE.

Do not waste time arguing over godless ideas and old wives’ tales. Instead, train yourself to be godly. Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come. [1 Timothy 4:7-8]

GET OUTDOORS 😊

The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. [Psalm 23:1-3]
