    Our Bodies Are Temples

    1 Cor. 6:19-20

    Friend, were you aware that the body your in is not your own? As crazy as it may sound, our Bodies were bought and paid for through the death of Jesus Christ. Therefore we do not hold the deed to these bodies, but God does. We are mearly stewards of these bodies we live in. What we do with them now, the Bible says that we will have to give account for on judgement day.

    Before I became a Christian, I was a drunk. I spent the majority of my life in bars chasing down shot after shot of whiskey. I got myself into all sorts of trouble with the law in the little town I grew up in. My friends were just as crazy as I was and together we raised hell on the weekends. I say all that to make a point. At the time I was unaware that I was destroying God's temple. I was quickly going down a slippery slope that in the end would of led me straight to the gates of hell. If God had not intervened on that cool October morning, I would be suffering in torment right now without a way out. But God did come in and rescue me, Jesus did reach down into that pit and pulled me out, cleaned me up and set my feet on solid ground. He change this drunk into the man of God that I am now. As I said in the beginning, I spent the majority of my life destroying God's temple, but thankfully Jesus came into my life at just the right moment and Saved me from completely destroying it. I am unworthy of His love and forgiveness, much less His mercy and grace, but through it all I been saved. I can now say with the apostle Paul that "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
    Galatians 2:20

    Friend, my desire is that you too come to know Jesus Christ. I do not wish that He drag you through the mud as He did me, but that you will come by your own free will.

    When we stand before our Creator on judgment day, and we will All stand before Him. He is going to ask us what we did with the life given to us, did we use our time wisely, or live our lives foolishly?

    The decision is yours to make friend, choose wisely.

    Sunny days are coming!

    Psalms 142:3
    “When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.”

    Just as King David cried out to the Lord during difficult times, he understood that no matter how many challenges he faced, God would always be by his side, guiding him safely through the storm.

    Maybe you're facing a storm in your life today that feels insurmountable (debt, divorce, or the loss of a loved one). You look around and see the walls closing in around you. Friend, just like David, know that God is directing the course of your life right now. He will not let one of His children face anything that Jesus has not already experienced, and He will not abandon you to walk it alone, but is right there beside you, helping you until the very end.

    Sunny days are coming, friend, don't give up just yet.

    Strength in times of Struggle

    "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness."
    — 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

    Struggles are like crucibles that test our faith, the hotter the fire, the purer the metal. They challenge our patience, and push us beyond the boundaries of our comfort zones. Yet, in the midst of the flames, God is right there waiting to meet us with His grace. The apostle Paul knew this all too well. He pleaded for his "thorn" to be taken away, but God's response wasn't deliverance—it was instead assurance: "My grace is sufficient."

    Friend, sometimes God calms the storm in our lives, other times, He calms the child within us. Struggles are not signs of God’s absence, they are often invitations to discover His strength in new ways. When we are weak, His power shines the brightest.

    What struggles are you facing right now that you need to surrender to God?

    How have you experienced God’s strength in your weakness in the past?

    Are you trusting God’s timing and purpose in your current hardship?

    Prayer:
    Lord, I come to You weary and burdened. I don’t always understand why I face certain struggles, but I choose to trust that Your grace is enough. Teach me to rely on Your strength, not my own. Help me see my trials as opportunities to draw closer to You. Amen.

    Be Strong and Courageous!
    Lily's Story

    “Be strong and courageous "____". Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
    — Joshua 1:9

    "Disappointment is inevitable. But to become discouraged, there's a choice I make. God would never discourage me. He would always point me to Himself to trust Him."
    Dr Charles F. Stanley

    Throughout our lives, we will face many moments when the paths ahead seem a bit uncertain, overwhelming, or even intimidating. It is during these moments that our true courage is revealed, when we must choose faith over fear, hope over despair.

    In today's verse, Joshua was called to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land after the death of his predecessor Moses. He would face giants, armies, and countless challenges. Yet he knew that God’s command to him was clear. The words, “Be strong and courageous Joshua, still rang in his ears.” This divine assurance from God reminded him that courage wasn’t rooted in his strength alone, but in trusting God's presence and promises.

    Lily's Story

    Once upon a time, in a small village surrounded by dark forests, lived a young girl named Lily. One day, a fierce storm threatened to destroy the village where she lived. The villagers were afraid and unsure of what to do. But Lily remembered her grandmother’s words “When courage is needed most, it is courage that saves us, Lily.”

    So with trembling hands but a brave heart, Lily took a lantern, trimmed it and ventured out into the storm to light the way for others. Lily's courage inspired everyone to work together, securing their homes and protecting each other. The storm eventually passed, but Lily’s bravery became a legend in the village—reminding everyone that even the smallest voice of courage can make a huge difference.

    Likewise, courage is essential in our daily lives. Whether it’s standing up for truth, facing a difficult situation, or reaching for our dreams, remember that God is with us. His strength empowers us to overcome every fears and obstacle in our lives.

    As you re-read today's verse, lets include our name to it, and do not fear the enemy in our lives, for God has given you the courage to stand strong in the midst of your challenges, and to defeat the devil.

    Lets Pray
    Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of courage. Help us to trust in Your presence when we face challenges. Strengthen our hearts to stand firm, to be brave in the face of fear, and to always remember that with You, we can overcome anything. Fill us with Your peace and boldness to do what is right. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

    Satan will never stop attacking our bodies as long as we are allowing him a foothold into our lives.

    1 Corinthians 10:13 TLB
    But remember this-the wrong desires that come into your life aren't anything new and different. Many others have faced exactly the same problems before you. And no temptation is irresistible. You can trust God to keep the temptation from becoming so strong that you can't stand up against it, for he has promised this and will do what he says. He will show you how to escape temptation's power so that you can bear up patiently against it.

    I overcame alcohol and porn addiction several years ago, yet that hasn't stopped the relentless onslaught of temptations that seek to derail my path and challenge my resolve day in and day out. Out of nowhere ads pop up about drinking and having a good time, or scantily clad women advertising themselves on dating apps. When I see these pop up, I have two choices before me, one, fall for it and allow the door that God has already closed to be open again to the enemy. Or, ignore the devil's temptations and cast them at the foot of the cross and allow Jesus to take care of the situation.

    Friend, the choice is simple, why would I want to undo what God has done in my life? I would be foolish to go back to my old way of living. God did not save me so that I could continue living in sin, no, He did so that I might go forth and share my testimony with others who are struggling with the same addiction I struggled with.

    If you have overcome an addiction in your life, give God the praise, He could of just as easily left you and I wallowing around in the filth that held us captive all those years. Thankfully by the grace of God we are now over comers. Don't keep what God has done in your life a secret. Shout it from the rooftops.

    Scripture references; 1 Corinthians 10:13/ 1 Peter 5:8/ James 1:12-15

    Redeemed; to buy something back

    Jesus came to earth in order to buy back our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    Q; But from who did He buy them back from?
    A; Satan, the devil, our adversary.

    We were once lost, but now we are found. Though we may not have been aware of it at the time, we were being held captive by the forces of darkness, but, through the compassion of others who shared the truth with us, we came to recognize our need for salvation. By accepting Christ into our lives, we were liberated from the bandages of sin and death, and now, through the shed blood on Calvary we've become children of God, embracing the light and love He has to offer.

    Encourage one another!

    1 Thessalonians 5:11 ESV
    Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing

    Wouldn't life be much better if we just followed the commands in the Bible? Like encouraging someone, anyone, without considering the color of their skin, or the way the dress and talk. If we would just walk up to everyone we came in contact with today and greeted them with a friendly smile and a warm hello!

    Lets give it a try today friends! God would be very pleased with us when we do.

    Christ in Us!

    Colossians 1:27 KJV
    To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

    The Lord Jesus gave us the authority to go fourth and share the good news with everyone we meet. Not to pick and choose who to tell, but to tell everyone! Everybody deserves to know about Christ and what His sacrifice meant for us all. Whether or not they decide to follow Christ, that's up to them, if we have told them about the gospel, we've done our part and now its up to that person to choose to believe or not to believe.

    But if we are going to sit around and wait for the perfect time, friends, that time is now! There is no better time than the present to share Gods love with someone. Look at the world around you, its falling apart with each new day getting worse than the day before.

    So get out there and share your testimony with someone, somebody out there needs to hear how you came to know and follow Christ. Your testimony might be just what they need to hear.
