DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  1 CORINTHIANS 6:17-20

(17)  But he that is joined unto thee Lord is one spirit.
(18)  Flee fornication.  Every sin that a man doeth is without the body;  but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
(19)  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?
(20)  For ye are bought with a price:  therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.


BELOVED, FLEE FORNICATION!

Brethren, as believers in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, let us try to always preserve our bodies in sanctification unto him: for organically we are in reunion with him through the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit and by our believes in him as Lord and Savior:  for, we receive the pureness of him into our spirits the moment we receive him as Lord and Savior, believe in him, and were baptized into the faith of his righteousness, and our spirits are now regenerated by his spirit within our souls; therefore, let us be aware of how we use our sanctified bodies in other to honor him in his holiness within our spirits.

Case in point, what is fornication?  per Webster dictionary, it is consensual sexual intercourse between two persons not married to each other:  Not married to each other?  Believers, let us refrain from such gestures if we are not married yet to anyone, let us not engage ourselves into these kinds of actions or allow predators to lure us into sinning against ourselves;  for, we are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, and the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit lives within our inner spirits and we are in one spirit with him; therefore, our bodies are temples of pureness for our heavenly Father's abode; for we grieve his spiritual pureness within our souls when we engage in such immoralities; therefore, let us do our best to refrain from desires of the flesh; for the enemy knows the weaknesses of humanity, and from generations to generations humanity falls short of the glory of the Father in this area of our lives because of lusts of the flesh brought upon our souls by the enemy;  in verse eighteen of the text, Apostle Paul said, that when we trespass, normally it is against the Father;  but, when we fornicate or commit adultery, we trespass in opposition to our own selves; therefore, let us be in spirit and stay in spirit and not give in to temptations of lusts of the flesh to defile the pureness of the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit within our spirits by which we are sealed until day of redemption.


WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:

Points to ponder, we may ask ourselves, what is the big deal, the Father gave us this pleasure, why can not we enjoy it?  Beloved, there is nothing wrong with enjoying gifts of pleasure implanted in our feelings and emotions by our heavenly Father;  what is wrong is when we take those actions illegally, yielding to temptations of the enemy to allow our feelings and emotions drive our minds into sinning against our own bodies by engaging ourselves in immoral behaviors not sanctioned by the scriptures: we may or might not have defiled ourselves ever, that is wonderful!  However, some of us at some points of our lives have trespass against ourselves, but we have Christ now living within our souls and our iniquities are forgiven forever; therefore, let us walk in the righteousness of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.  Brethren, let us not worry or feel condemned about the issue,  Jesus is encouraging his believers to know who we are in him, his spirit implanted within their hearts. souls and bodies when they receive him as Lord and Savior; be ware that they are not alone, consider and cherish his presence as parts of their mortal bodies and keep them in holiness for his use to transform their lives into his image for glorification of our heavenly Father.  In Apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians 4:9; "But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak, and beggarly elements where unto ye desire again to be in bondage?  Dearly beloved, we know the truth now, let us abide in the truth forevermore.

Fruits of thoughts, brethren, the Holy Spirits are in our spirits, our spirits are within our mortal bodies therefore, our bodies becomes his temples and dwelling places: when we trespass against our bodies we trespass against him;  however, there are seconds, thirds and forth chances given to believers by Christ to make things right with him in the faith of his righteousness; however, no one knows exactly when trumpets shall sound from heavenly places for day of rapture and Christ's Second Coming to planet earth; therefore, let us bear fruits of repentance now by walking in his righteousness, preserve our sanctified bodies, spirits and souls in holiness forevermore.


CONCLUSION: 

Beloved, all desires of the flesh was supposed to be done away with by the blood of Jesus when we receive him into our hearts; today, Apostle Paul is encouraging us to be ware of the craftiness of the enemy to lure us into sinning against our own bodies by yielding to temptations of our fleshly desires;  for we are sanctified vessels set asides to allow the Father who dwells in us to occupy our bodies and express himself through our bodies and to transform us into the image of Christ; for that reason, we are to exercise severe control over our bodies to bring them into subjection of dictates of the Holy Spirit and presenting to the Father as a living sacrifice; whenever we trespass against ourselves in ungodly manners, we grieve the indwelling powers of the Holy Spirit:  however, if we are in tune with the Holy Spirit, as soon as we trespass against him, he will convict us right away to bring us into repentance, forgiveness, sanctification and restoration into fellowship with him again in his righteousness into life everlasting.  Amen and Amen!


QUOTE OF THE DAY:

(KJV.)  Romans 12:1  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
