Summary: Our body is the temple of the Lord

NO BUYING AND SELLING

John 2:13-21

13 It was nearly time for the Jewish Passover, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 He found in the temple those who were selling cattle, sheep, and doves, as well as those involved in exchanging currency sitting there. 15 He made a whip from ropes and chased them all out of the temple, including the cattle and the sheep. He scattered the coins and overturned the tables of those who exchanged currency. 16 He said to the dove sellers, “Get these things out of here! Don’t make my Father’s house a place of business.” 17 His disciples remembered that it is written, Passion for your house consumes me.

18 Then the Jewish leaders asked him, “By what authority are you doing these things? What miraculous sign will you show us?”

19 Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple and in three days I’ll raise it up.”

20 The Jewish leaders replied, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and you will raise it up in three days?” 21 But the temple Jesus was talking about was his body.

Sickness in the body can also be classified as buying and selling.

2 Timothy 1:7 AMP says, “AMP

For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline {abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control.}

Evil visitations on the body and the mind are usually through opens to curses, sins and the like.

Man’s body is fallen and is prone to attacks due to sins from the time of Adam till now.

But we have redemptive power for our temples through the death and resurrection of the body of Jesus Christ.

A child of God must have their spiritual mind set on ensuring that their body of holiness. How do you that? By spending time cleansing it with the word of God, putting the flesh down with fastings, prayers, keeping your soul man holy.

We must readily push away the dealings of the enemy within our body with aggressive prayers. I was with a few of my Asian Christian friends the other day. We went into a period of prayers. They were astonished at the aggressiveness of the prayers I raised their pinpoint focus and how I matched with God’s Word. I told them, you can either use a pellet gun on your target or you can decide to use a sniper’s rifle. Depends on what result you want.
