THE SPIRIT IN YOU

THE SPIRIT IN YOU

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? (1 Corinthians 6:19).

sunday 8

In the Old Testament, the children of Israel 

transported the presence of God from place 

to place every time they carried the Tabernacle of 

Witness, which contained the Ark of the Covenant. In 

1 Kings 8:9, the Bible tells us specifically that “There 

was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, 

which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD 

made a covenant with the children of Israel, when 

they came out of the land of Egypt.”  The only thing 

in the ark was God’s commandments.

Today, your heart is the ark of God; that’s where 

the Word is. Remember what the Lord said in Jeremiah 

31:33:  “But this shall be the covenant that I will make 

with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the 

Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write 

it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall 

be my people.”  This was fulfilled in us when we were 

born again. 

We were born again by the Word of God, and 

have become one with the Word; we’re living epistles, 

“written, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living 

God—not in tables of stone—but in fleshy tables of the 

heart”  (2 Corinthians 3:3). Blessed be God!  

You’re now the living ark of testimony and the 

tabernacle of His presence:  “…for ye are the temple 

of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in 

them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and 

they shall be my people”  (2 Corinthians 6:16). He 

dwells in you now. His hands are in your hands, and 

His legs are in your legs. He walks in you and talks 

through you. Where you go, God goes. You’re in Him 

and He’s in you! 

Not only are you now in the presence of God, 

you carry the presence of God. Every time you show 

up, you come with the presence of God: Christ in you, 

the hope of glory!

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for your presence, glory, 

beauty, aura and perfections in my life. The Holy 

Spirit, who is your glory, lives in, and operates from 

the quarters of my heart. Therefore, sickness, disease, 

and darkness have no place in me, in Jesus’ Name. 

Amen.
