Your Body Is A Temple

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own…

1 Corinthians 6:19

Your body is the ideal resting place for the Divine Architect. It’s impossible to get any closer to God’s Presence than from within your own body. What most people mean when they say they want to get closer to God is that they desire to develop a greater awareness of His closeness within them. Prayer draws you closer to Jesus. When we say “Come Holy Spirit,” we aren’t calling the Divine Creator forth from his dwelling place in the far reaches of the Universe, his dwelling place is within us. Christ in-carnated Himself, em-bodied Himself, He became flesh so that we might know Him in our flesh. Jesus is not some ethereal experience. He is as real to us as your breath inside your lungs. Just as we become aware of our breathing through meditation practices, disciples ought to practice becoming aware of Christ’s Presence. This is one of the roles of the Church, to equip the Saints in the practice of Presence that we might be blessed to manifest God from within to a world largely asleep to His Presence already here. HE IS WITH US. Just as the body requires food to live, so to the body of Christ within requires true food to live and grow.

The reality of our world is fully present within our bodies.

We have everything we need to bring forth the Kingdom Of Heaven on Earth. Just as light shines forth from above so now it shines forth from below. AS ABOVE SO BELOW.

Matter and energy are a physical reality of the substance of God.

What is unseen cannot become seen except it passes through Light.

Dark matter is nothing more than the acknowledgment that something invisible is present to us if we’ll only let it be drawn out into the Light.

Nothing comes into being without passing through the Light. HE IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD.

Where there is a hunger for darkness it must be met with a hunger for light or darkness will remain forever hidden and nothing will come fully into the light. I THIRST.

The Church cannot ignore this hunger. New Age and Occultism are a direct result of a Church that has forgotten how to mother. She is the answer for every hungry heart. This is why she is called ‘Mother’, because it is from within her womb that the fruit of the Spirit is born; her children call her blessed from generation to generation.

For the Last Day to come, EVERYTHING must be drawn into the light. EVERYTHING must be birthed from the hidden places.

If you have been reborn in His Mother’s womb, then there is NOTHING to be afraid of outside of yourself. Jesus has given all authority he has freely to those he calls brother and sister. WHO IS MY MOTHER? AND WHO ARE MY BROTHERS? “Jesus points to the disciples and says, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother. (Matthew 12:48-50).”

The Church gives life and apart from her there is no life. NO MAN IS AN ISLAND. For what man baptizes himself with water? Or has heard the Gospel preached without flesh? Or has read the words of Truth written with an invisible hand? So no one can come to Christ without the help of His Mother, without the help of His Church. And because we are not alone but are part of His family we are co-laboring with Him. Even now. UNTIL THE END OF THE AGE, I AM STILL WITH YOU.

The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all his innermost parts.

Proverbs 20:27

One Day, the lamp of man will no longer be necessary nor the light of the sun because all things will be gathered at His feet. AND THE NIGHT WILL BE AS DAY. But until that Day dawns, we mustn’t be afraid of the dark. For we are children of Light; our bodies are not a wonderland, they are temples of Light. YOU ARE A LITTLE MOTHER.

Speak to the places everywhere your feet tread, ‘Let there be Light!’. And everywhere the light shines the shadows flee. It is in these places where you are brave enough to go that Christ shall surely be birthed and what was hidden in darkness shall see a great light!

Be not afraid to be saints of Light. BE ANXIOUS FOR NOTHING. There is nothing to be afraid of.

the generative forces of the world are wholesome,

and there is no destructive poison in them,

and the dominion of Hades is not on earth.

Wisdom 1:13-14

Until the Day dawns and the shadows flee…
