READ
You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections. (2 Corinthians 6:12, NKJV)
16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said:
“I will dwell in them
And walk among them.
I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.”
17 Therefore
“Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.”
18 “I will be a Father to you,
and you shall be My sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.” (2 Corinthians 6:16–18, NKJV)
REFLECT
I am called to be holy
I am restricted not by church or law but by my own inner desires that war against the new divine nature.
I am now a temple of my God.
God is in me, He walks through life with me. He is my God, I am His child.
I am to separate myself from those who are not His children and do what my God has chosen for me to do. If I hang out with unbelievers I may succumb to their ways instead of my God’s ways.
God wants to receive me and be my Father. I can’t walk in His ways when I’m following the my old flesh desires from inside and other people that are not His…
PRAY
Father, please help me surrender to you who live inside me. Thank you for making me your child and letting me become your temple. Thank you for wanting to walk through life with me. Help me put my flesh desires to death so I can live by your Spirit. Help me to separate myself from unbelievers so I am not tempted in my weak flesh to follow the old ways. I need your divine nature to override my flesh and if I hang out in the wrong crowd I can easily fall. No offense against them, but I am weak and need to strengthen myself in You. I need you to be my Father and I thank you for letting me become your daughter. Amen!!
