Your Body Matters To God | 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 | Dr. Mathew Luke | SABC

Your Body Matters To God | 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 | Dr. Mathew Luke | SABC    • Rev. Matthew Luke   In today's sermon, "Your Body Matters to God," we delve into the profound truth that our bodies are sacred and belong to God. Guided by the scripture from 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, we explore the importance of honoring God with our physical beings. Here’s a breakdown of today’s message: Main Points: God Owns Our Bodies (1 Peter 2:4-5) In the Old Testament, the temple was where God's presence dwelled. Now, under the New Covenant, our bodies are the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. Pay Attention to What Your Body Craves 1 Corinthians 10:31 reminds us to do everything for the glory of God. Evaluate what your body desires and who governs its actions. Be Attentive to What Your Body Deems Important Isaiah 56:7 teaches us that worship extends beyond spiritual practices to how we care for our bodies. Engage in daily surrender, maintain a good work ethic, and use your talents for God's glory. Pay Attention to Your Body’s Actions Practice spiritual discipline, engage in acts of compassion and service, embody Christ’s ministry, and maintain holistic worship. Your body should be an instrument of righteousness. Be Careful Your Body No Longer Aligns with the Old Way of Life Embrace being born again (1 Peter 1:23; 2 Corinthians 5:17) and reject the old ways (Colossians 3:1-9; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10). Be Mindful for Your Body is His Living Testament As stated in 2 Corinthians 3:2, be a living epistle, reflecting God's grace and love to the world. Takeaway: Dedicate your entire being to Jesus. Worship Him in true devotion using your body. Perform your duties as an act of worship unto God. Eliminate anything in your life that dishonors Him. Reflect His saving grace in your life to those around you. Surrender your body to the Lord and glorify Him daily. Thank you for joining us.
