Daily Reading:<\/strong> Exodus 37:1-38:31 ESV<\/a>, Matthew 28:1-20 ESV<\/a>, Psalm 34:11-22 ESV<\/a>, Proverbs 9:9-10 ESV<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daily Verse:<\/strong> \u201cGo therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy<\/em> Spirit\u201d (Matthew 28:19 ESV<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HAGIOS (40):  <\/strong>\u201cSacred (phys. Pure, mor. Blameless or religious, cer. Consecrated) Fundamentally signifies separated, and hence, in Scripture in its moral and spiritual significance, separated from sin and therefore consecrated to God.  It is used of men and things in so far as they are devoted to God.  The saints are thus figuratively spoken of as a holy temple.[I]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Spirit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy Spirit, God within us, makes our body God\u2019s temple.  Jesus taking up residency in our hearts changes us.  Beginning to understand and apply God\u2019s love to our relationships brings new life.  Only one God exists, only one Spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul, in Athens, challenges the Romans because they have a statue of an unknown god, along with all their other gods.  Speaking to the men, Paul shows God as the unknown god, the one and only God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy and Separate.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Believing in the one true God makes you holy, separated from your sin.  God forgives wholly and immediately the moment you ask for mercy.  As we journey with God, we become more sensitive to the sin in our lives, realizing a constant battle of surrendering our will to His exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God\u2019s spirit, the Holy Spirit, helps us win the battle.\u00a0 Conviction from within helps us confess quickly.\u00a0 When an errant thought runs through my head, I admit it to God.\u00a0 Partnering with the Creator\u2019s power, the idea doesn\u2019t take root in my mind and turn into action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy Spirit, our one and only, guide and direct us today.  Let us acknowledge Your promptings, confess our sins, and become more like Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
