I Corinthians 6:13 NKJV

Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

I Corinthians 6:13 NKJV

Paul is teaching us that as the stomach is designed by God to handle the food, and food is made for the stomach to process SO IS THE BODY FOR THE LORD AND THE LORD FOR THE BODY.

This is such a powerful truth that helps us as believers to get out of our religious rituals and do the works of God.

Our body is made for God, for without this body God cannot have access to His power, plan, and purposes to be established.

He told the disciples to wait for the promise to come because, for the second time in the history of mankind, God is able to dwell in man.

The first time is before sin entered man and the second is when Christ washed away the sins of all mankind.

In order for God's plans to be done here on earth, God needed a body that is yielded to Him and has His Spirit in it.

When we yield to Jesus and receive Him as Lord, we become an ambassador for His kingdom, so that we may establish His domain here on earth.

God, who is just, cannot and will not violate His own law. The world was given to mankind; therefore, God will not intervene without man's permission.

Without God, man will be useless, and without man, God will not intervene on the earth.

Every whisper, prayer, yieldedness and surrender to God gives entrance to His plans, His power and purposes to be established here on earth.

People blame God for every evil that takes place on the earth. The only one to be blamed is mankind who is responsible for everything that happens here on earth.

Therefore, we are God's body here on earth to establish His kingdom that was spoken and prepared before the foundation of the world.

Let us all rise in Christ as His body and start healing the broken world and establishing His kingdom.

Blessings,

Ps Ambrose
