Today's Daily Devotional

Take care of your body for it is the temple of My Holy Spirit.

Think carefully about how you live. You have planted many seeds but gather small crops. You eat but you are never satisfied. You drink but you are never full. Your clothes do not provide warmth. Your pay doesn't provide everything you need. Do not be busy with your own house but let My temple be destroyed.

Do not live in your big beautiful house while My temple is falling apart. My temple used to be beautiful but now it doesn't look too good. Just like the physical temple belongs to Me, your body is the temple of My Holy Spirit that lives inside you.

Do you not know this? You were bought at a price. Your body is not your own. So honor Me with your body. Do not conform to the patterns of the world you live in.

“Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?” Now this is what the LORD Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.

— Haggai 1:4-5

Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

— 1 Corinthians 6:19
