Lenten Devotion, Mar. 17

2 Chronicles 6:18-20

Solomon said

But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth?

Behold heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You.

How much less this temple which I have built!

“Yet regard the prayer of your servant and his supplication,

O LORD my God, and listen to the cry and the prayer

of which Your servant is praying before You:

that Your eyes may be open toward this temple

day and night,

toward the place where You said You would put

Your name…”

But, the Apostle Paul says,

“Hey you, Christian, yes you!”

“Do you not know that you are a temple of God

and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?”

1 Corinthians 3:16

and I say,

“If God is your co-pilot,

may I suggest that you change seats?”
