God Paid
A High Price For You,
So Don’t Be Enslaved By This World.
Don’t let me do stupid sins that enslave me to this
world.
Scripture
23 God paid a high price for you, so don’t be enslaved by the world.
1 Corinthians 6
18 Run from sexual sin!
No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. 19 Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself,
20 for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.
Observation
Honor
God with our bodies! We live in a culture that focuses on “bodies” but the
focus is on “indulgence” not bringing glory to God!
Sex
and Food … both seem to be very enslaving in our culture!
The
Apostle Paul tells us why we should live differently than those around us, “God
paid a high price for you, so don’t be enslaved by the world.”
Satan
will use anything to distract us. He constantly is looking for ways to enslave
us.
You
and I have been bought with a high price. So lets honor God with our bodies!
Application
I will strive to live a godly life this week keeping in
mind that I have been bought with a very high price … Jesus Christ’s death on
the cross. How about you?
Prayer
Guard my eyes and guard my heart.
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Psalm 19:14 (NLT)
Daily Bible Reading Job 35,36; 1 Corinthians 7,8
