WHAT HOUSE WILL YE BUILD ME? ......

ACTS 7:49-50

(49)  HEAVEN IS MY THRONE, AND EARTH IS MY FOOTSTOOL:  WHAT HOUSE WILL YE BUILD ME?  SAITH THE LORD: OR WHAT IS THE PLACE OF MY REST?
(50)  HATH NOT MY HAND MADE ALL THESE THINGS?

COMMENTARY:

Brethren in the Lord, in this context our Lord proclaims his dominion over all his creation.  As Christians, we sometimes wonder how our Lord is able to hear everyone's utterances at the same time; the above text explains why, our Lord exist within his creation, his throne is in heaven and the earth is his footstool.

Therefore, we are like ants before him, he sees, hears, and knows our movements throughout our lives; because we dwell in his presence.  There is nothing on earth, or heaven that can contain him; he is the universe, he is the air that we breath into our nostrils and into our hearts.

He fashion and form us, and we live for him; whether we acknowledge him as our Lord and Savior or not, he still knows our choices in life.  He knows when we (plot evil, pray to him, gossip, steal, give, cheerful, sorrowful, commit adultery or worship him); he sees every move we make throughout our lives, he never sleeps, or brinks his eyes for a moment.  WHAT AN AWESOME GOD!!!

When we build a temple (church) for God; it is a place set aside to meet with other believers to worship him; his spirit lives in the congregation, but he lives in his creation, for the whole earth is full of his glory.

(Isaiah 6:3)  And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

CONCLUSION:

Brethren in the Lord, our "God is an awesome God".  He created us and we dwell in his presence forever, whether on earth, heaven, or hell we are in his presence; therefore, let us fear him and be righteous.
(Romans 3:10) there is no one righteous, no, not one.  Therefore, when we sin, let us acknowledge our sins; there is forgiveness through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who died on cross to redeemed us of all unrighteousness, and he will save us from hell damnation.

Acknowledge him as your Lord and Savior today and ye shall be saved forevermore!  Amen and Amen!
