August 16th - Day 74: You alone are not God’s temple

Today’s Big Idea: Gathering as a temple

Key Verse: Ephesians 2:21-22

Passage of the day: Ephesians 2:11-22

Thoughts to consider: Now that we remember the Holy Spirit lives in every believer, we have Him with us everywhere, at all times, and that should never be treated lightly. This means, no one physical location or even multiple church buildings can hold the presence of God. Altogether, we make up the body/building of Christ. When we gather, we see a more complete picture of the temple of God, and our key verse today tells us that we are “carefully joined together in him (to) become a holy temple”. This means we are stronger together. This unity and peace we can experience, and honestly that many christians are missing today, comes from the gathering of His people. The gathering as a temple of God. When we are gathered together, He is present and with us.
