Many do not know that we human beings are spiritual buildings wherein spirit beings passionately desire to dwell or live in, walk and work through on Earth. That is, to carry out their predetermined plan and purposes in and through in this World. This include God Himself by His Holy Spirit.
This means that there is a real battle in the spiritual realm between the unholy spirits (demons) of Satan and the holy spirits (angels) of God on who gain access and live within a particular human body (building) par time. True!
Please note that the battle by the holy spirits (angels) of God against the unholy spirits (demons) of Satan is to give access to the Holy Spirit of God and not necessarily for themselves. This is because angels are not created and permitted by God to enter and dwell within humans as demons (unholy angels) stubbornly and rebelliously do.
This is why demons are meant to be casted out from human bodies (buildings) for the Holy Spirit of God, who originally have the sole right of God the Father to enter and live within human beings to carry out His plan and purposes of God the Creator of humans on Earth. True! (Genesis 1-3; Psalm 24:1,2).
This is why Jesus Christ said thus:
Then was brought unto Him one possessed with a devil, blind and dumb and He healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
And all the people were amazed and said, is not this the son of David?
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, this fellow does not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
And Jesus knew their thoughts and said unto them, every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.
And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself. How shall then his kingdom stand?
And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.
But if I CAST out devils by the SPIRIT of God, then the kingdom of God (Holy Spirit) is come unto you.
Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? And then he will spoil his house.
He that is not with me is against me. And he that gathers not with me scatters abroad. (Matthew 12:22-30; Luke 17:20,21).
Now note that whichever spirit being you allow to live within you or influence you consistently, the same you are worshipping his master, which can either be God or Satan. This make we humans:
1. TEMPLES of worship for God, if we allow the Holy of Spirit of God to freely come into us and influence us consciously and consistently to do the Word, Ways, Will and Work of God in Christ through us in this World. True! (Romans 8:1-19).
2. TEMPLES of worship for god (Satan), if we allow the unholy spirits (demons) to come into us and influence us consciously and consistently to do the word, ways, will and work of god (Satan) through us in this World. True! (2 Corinthians 4:1-7; Psalm 115).
Do you get it?
In the light of the above, we who are genuinely born-again in Christ in this World are:
1. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically THINK through in Christ in this World. True!
2. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically SPEAK through in Christ in this World. True!
3. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically LIVE through in Christ in this World. True! (Mark 13:10,11).
In other words, we are:
1. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically do His WORD through in Christ in this World. True!
2.Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically live His WAYS through in Christ in this World. True!
3.Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically do His WILL through in Christ in this World. True!
4. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically live His WORTH through in Christ in this World. True!
5. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically WALK through in Christ in this World. True!
6. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically do His WORK through in Christ in this World. True!
Furthermore, we are:
1. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically carry out His PLANS through in Christ in this World. True!
2. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically manifest His PURPOSES through in Christ in this World. True!
3. Spiritual buildings (temples) in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit to physically fulfill His PURPOSES through in Christ in this World. True!
The above is critically important and should be the conscious awareness of every true child of God in Christ in this World. True!
Apostle Peter reveals thus:
You also, as lively stones, are built up a SPIRITUAL HOUSE, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious and he that believes on Him shall not be confounded.
Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner.
And a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.
Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God, which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. (1 Peter 2:5-10).
Also, the Apostle Paul brought to our knowledge thus:
Know you not that you are the TEMPLE of God and that the SPIRIT of God dwells in you?
If any man DEFILE the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.
And again, the Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. (1 Corinthians 3:16-20; 1 Corinthians 1:34-31).
Now note that SIN of any form, either by ancestors and parents on your behalf or by you gives legal right for unholy spirits (demons) to be attach to you or to enter into you (in an extreme case) to carry out their predetermined plan and purposes through you on Earth. True! (1 John 5:16-21).
SIN by ancestors and parents, whereby many of them knowingly or unknowingly, spiritually dedicated and sold out their children to Satan, is one of the main cause of struggles and sufferings in the lives of many people today, knowingly or unknowingly to many people as well.
This is why the Bible says thus:
If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? (Psalm 11:3).
You run to JESUS CHRIST, the sure and safe foundation of God in this New Testament (covenant) era of human existence. Halleluyah! (1 Corinthians 3:10-20; Matthew 7:24-27).
Surprisingly, Psalm 11:3 above is talking to genuine children of God, the righteous.
I believe this is so for the righteous, who have not yet understand the effect of their faulty ancestral and parental foundation on them and dealt with it with their current spiritual position and provisions provided by God in Christ for them. They have not yet consciously use the Word of God to reconcile their old and barren (past) foundation in their ancestors and parents to their new and fruitful (present) foundation in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:17-21).
God requests from us thus:
Be you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?
And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believes with an infidel?
And what agreement hath the TEMPLE of God with IDOLS (demons)? 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.
Wherefore come out from among them and be ye separate, says the Lord and touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you.
And will be a Father unto you and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:14-18).
Until, you consciously and intimately separate from the unclean things and people as admonish by the above scriptural passage:
1. God cannot indeed dwell in you and walk through you. True!
2. God cannot indeed be your Father and you his son or daughter indeed. True!
Again as regard keeping your TEMPLE clean for God's dwelling and use, the Bible counsels thus:
Meats for the belly and the belly for meats. But God shall destroy both it and them. Now the BODY is not for fornication, but for the Lord and the LORD for the body.
And God has both raised up the Lord and will also raise up us by His own power.
Know you not that your BODIES are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
What? know you not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? For two, says He, shall be one flesh.
But he that is JOINED unto the Lord is one SPIRIT.
Flee fornication. Every SIN that a man does is without the BODY. But he that commits fornication sins against his own body.
What? know you not that your BODY is the TEMPLE of the HOLY GHOST which is IN you, which you have of God and you are NOT your own?
For you are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your BODY and in your SPIRIT, which are God's. (1 Corinthians 6:13-21).
Do you get it?
Sexual intercourse is one sure and unsafe way to get your TEMPLE of God defiled fast and get in demons to promptly attach to you or enter into you. True!
This is why, the Bible counsels us that marriage is the only safe place for sexual intercourse without demons interference and transference thus:
Marriage is honourable in all and the bed undefiled. But whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. (Hebrews 13:4).
In the light of the above, Apostle Paul by the Spirit of God counsels us thus:
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
And be not conformed to this world. But be you transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect, will of God. (Romans 12:1,2).
If you carefully study the above scriptural verses, you will discover that, submitting your BODY (temple of God) as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God as your reasonable service to God in Christ in this World and allowing the Holy Spirit of God that is within you to help you renew your mind from the mentality of the World to the mentality of the Word of God, you will be able to know par time the good, acceptable and perfect Will of God for you in all situation concerning you and some times for others. True! (1 Corinthians 2:9-14).
The Holy Spirit of God given to you on your genuine moment of salvation (born-again) made you the TEMPLE of God in the sight and side of God. True!
Therefore:
1. Consciously and consistently keep your spirit, soul and body clean and holy for God's dwelling and use, it is the answer to your supernatural victory, success and satisfaction in Christ in this World. True! (1 Peter 1:14-16; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18).
2. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God that is within you for any reason by consciously going against the Word of God unrepentantly. He is the answer in Christ within to your supernatural victory, success and satisfaction in Christ in this World. True! (Ephesians 4:28-32; Romans 8:1-30).
3. Do not quench the Holy Spirit of God that is within you for any reason by consistently going against the Word, Ways and Will of God unrepentantly. He is the answer in Christ within to your supernatural victory, success and satisfaction in Christ in this World. True! (1 Thessalonians 5:19; 2 Corinthians 3:17; Acts 1:8).
Therefore, for your own earthly and eternal good cooperate with the Holy Spirit of God within to achieve wholeness in you in Christ in this World.
The Bible counsels thus:
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Abstain from all appearance of evil.
And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly. And I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Faithful is he that calls you, who also will do it. (1 Thessalonians 5: 21-24).
Do you get it?
The wholeness of you as the TEMPLE of God in Christ in this World is critical and matters to Him and it should be to you too. This is because therein lies Him working out His Word, Ways, Will, Worth and Work through you to favour you and others in Christ in this World. True!
Remember, it is your GOD that is to supply ALL your needs according to His RICHES in glory in Christ Jesus, not your GOVERNMENT. True! (Philippians 4:13,19; 1 Peter 5:6,7; Matthew 6:24-34).
Take note, take heed!
Do not compromise no longer!
Do have a sin-free week in Jesus name.
God bless you.
