You also are being built together for God’s dwelling in the Spirit.
Let’s ponder this, friend:
you and I
are being fashioned
to be a home for God’s holy spirit.
And that really changes how we live!
For consider this: When the Evil One comes knocking at the door of our lives, trying to stir up trouble, we have a decision to make:
Do we answer the door, or let the Holy Spirit?
For who do you think would strike fear into the heart of the Enemy more, we or the Holy Spirit?
Now listen to this:
When we want to be in charge of our lives, we treat the Holy Spirit as a guest. When we make plans and solve problems while leaving God as an afterthought, the Evil One will not back away.
But, when the Holy Spirit is the Master of the house,
when we give Him the deed,
yield our control, then He will answer the door and deal with all of life concerns that come our way.
