HIS THRONE IN YOUR HEART BY PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? (1 Corinthians 3:16).
The scripture above is so profound. It shows that the throne of God is in your heart, since He lives in you in His fullness. The same thought is expressed in 2 Corinthians 6:15-17. It says, ββ¦ 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 peopleβ¦.β What a blessing this is!
The word translated βtempleβ is the Greek word, βnaos.β It doesnβt refer to the ordinary everyday temple, but to an inner shrine; the shrine that houses the image of the βgodβ; the inner sanctuary where the image of the god is kept. For the Jews, it was the Holy of Holies; thatβs where the presence of God was. They didnβt have an image inside, but the presence of Jehovah was there.
When the Holy Spirit took up His abode in the quarters of your heart, you became that βshrineβ; the place of His presence. Think about that! It means you carry heaven in you. When Jesus came to this world, He came with heaven in Him to bless the world with. He brought it in His heart, because the Holy Spirit lived inside Him. He came with the throne of God in His heart. No wonder He was such a blessing to the world!
The same applies to you. Youβre much more than a religious person; by reason of the New Birth, youβve been translated into the Kingdom of God, and now carry His throne in your heart. Youβre heavenβs ambassador to this world. In reality, everywhere you go, God goes, because youβre His house. He talks in you, and He looks through your eyes. Therefore preach the Gospel; cast out devils; heal the sick; cleanse the lepers; raise the dead. Bless the world with the grace and glory of heaven thatβs in you. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for making me a partaker of your life and glory. I carry your divine presence in my heart and impact my world with the blessings of my divinity, in Jesusβ Name. Amen.
