KNOW YOUR WORTH - David Okoye

"...for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I WILL DWELL IN THEM, AND WALK IN THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE."
2nd Corinthians 6:16

God has used the foolish things of this world and set them as examples for our learning. The gods of men have temples built by their worshipers. These temples are kept clean and made so sacred, such that any wrong thing done in these temples has punishments assigned to the doers. Infact, it may even be assumed that the temples are respected as much as the stones or iron gods placed in them.


No wonder we've been referred to as earthen vessels. You were created and formed by God Himself, not His ministering spirits (angels). After having created you, He breathed in life, making you a living soul. 

When sin became a wall, He sent his only son to the earth to bridge the gap, by surrendering Himself to men of your type, thereby dying the most painful death. He went a step further, He gave his spirit, thereby making you a quickening spirit and not just a living soul like the first man, giving you another typology.

You are now in the order of Christ, enjoying the God class of life and living as a joint heir to the head. You are now a carrier of God, the temple of the living God. Do not live below your class and status.

DECLARATION:
My life is for God's glory, I live above the normal class of life and fully experience my new status.
