A holy temple - Better Together 11

Better Together – Call to Worship & Devotional Thoughts for January 23

Ephesians 2:18-26 18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. 19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. 21 In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. 22 And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.

Take a moment to look around your congregation. As you look at others around you I hope you realize, that for each of you who have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you are each fellow citizens of His Kingdom and family members in His household. A glorious fact for us today is that not only are we to be individually filled with God’s Holy Spirit, but as a family of believers we become a home for Him to dwell within. Today as you start your time of worship make sure to thank the Lord that He wants to build you and your corps to become the place where He Himself continually dwells.

Live holy, preach Jesus!
