What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? (1 Corinthians 6:19)

In the Old Testament, the children of Israel transported the presence of God from place to place every time they carried the Tabernacle of Witness, which contained the Ark of the Covenant.

In 1 Kings 8:9, the Bible tells us specifically that, 'There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.' The only thing in the ark was God's commandments!

Today, your heart is the ark of God; that's where the Word is. Remember what the Lord said in Jeremiah 31:33: 'But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.' This was fulfilled in us when we were born again.

We were born again by the Word of God, and have become one with the Word; we're living epistles, 'written, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God'not in tables of stone'but in fleshy tables of the heart' (2 Corinthians 3:3). Blessed be God!

You're now the living ark of testimony and the tabernacle of His presence. ''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' (2 Corinthians 6:16). He dwells in you now. His hands are in your hands, and His legs are in your legs. He walks in you and talks through you.

Where you go, God goes. You're in Him and He's in you! Not only are you now in the presence of God, you carry the presence of God. Every time you show up, you come with the presence of God. No wonder the Bible says in Colossians 1:26, 'Christ in you, the hope of glory!'

Prayer

Dear Father, I thank you for your glory in my life, and for making my heart your home. My life is for your glory, because the Holy Spirit, who is your glory, lives in and operates from the quarters of my heart. Therefore, Satan and anything associated with darkness have no place in me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
