MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 17TH JUNE 2023 MESSAGE:

Every man is in three parts: the body, soul and the spirit. The three are important to God and shouldn’t be tampered with. The body is the carrier of the soul and spirit. 3 John verse 2 tells us that God wants us to prosper in our body, soul and spirit. This is all round wellness and prosperity.

Just as our wellness is important, the purity of the body, soul and spirit is also vital. Can one be well in a polluted and defiled body? No! Can we continue in sin and say grace should abound, No! To enjoy total wellness requires the sanctity of the three. Our body is the temple of God, where His Spirit resides. God no longer lives in tabernacles. He now lives within us and has made our hearts His dwelling place.

Do you now see why the human body, especially for a Christian, should be kept holy and pure, away from filthiness, so that God can make it His tabernacle? God cannot behold iniquity. He abhors every detestable thing. A polluted vessel, a filthy body are all abomination to God. The Holy Spirit would depart from such.

Learn from the story of Samson. He was so powerful, yet he lusted after a Philistine woman who eventually sold him to his enemies. They mocked and ridiculed him with his eyes gorged out. This was all because he failed to honour God with his body. He defiled the sanctuary of God to satisfy his lust. He wanted to move in God’s power as usual, but did not know that the Spirit of God had left him.

If you continue to engage in filthy practices, there will be unanswered prayers, closed heaven, and you will become an enemy of God.

Today’s memory verse is expressly clear about the divine sanction for anyone that defiles God’s temple: God will destroy him! I am sure you don’t want to be destroyed.
In case you are still in that kind of business where your body cannot be kept for God as a living sacrifice, I beg you to repent today and seek God’s face for forgiveness and mercy. He will clean you up and make peace with you.
