About

"The Body: Covenant, Communion, & Covering" In today's society, there are many public discussions about the potential rebuilding of the "third temple" in the Middle East and its impact on a variety of political and religious groups. Those conversations can be insightful and thought-provoking, but this discussion will focus on the "First" - or original -  temple of God on earth: the physical body.  In this first of the segment on the body, we will be addressing some of the below questions and laying a solid foundation for future parts on the role of the Soul and our own spirits in bringing the Kingdom of God on earth and living out truly Christ-centered lives: - What is the purpose of the physical body in the life of someone who has been born again & how can we use our physical bodies to glorify God "in Spirit and truth" (John 4:24)? - What are some practical ways we can begin to more fully integrate the will of God for us to have "life and life more abundantly" through Christ - not just in eternity but beginning here and now, and specifically through our physical bodies (John 10:10)? - How can an intimate relationship and fellowship with Christ enhance how we perceive our own bodies and how we relate to others through our bodies as well?  Overall, I hope this first installment inspires you to reflect on the marvelous work of God in you - body, soul, and spirit - and to seek His will for your life through Christ more and more.  For questions about how to begin or navigate your walk with Christ, check out the Q&A section on the website for some commonly asked questions regarding salvation, sanctification, and deliverance from demonic spirits.  For more detailed information on the subject of this talk from a more woman-centered perspective, keep an eye out for the book "Holy Spirit-Filled Womanhood, Vol I: Purity, Pursuit, & Purpose" available in 2020 via the look at God website (theflamelilydiaries.com). Remember, the more you look at God, the clearer everything else will be. In other words: "Don't tell God how big your problems are. Tell your problems how big your God is." with love,  your sister in Christ, Nina Yemurai *** Key scriptures referenced in this episode: - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 - Psalm 139:14 - Revelation 3:20 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/yemurai/message
