Restored to the Original Design

Listen to the Audio

In 2 Chronicles 24 God's temple is being restored. In verse 13 it says, "The men in charge of the work were diligent, and the repairs progressed under them. They restored the temple of God according to its original design and strengthened(or reinforced) it."

Yesterday we said that if we are God's children it means we also have his genes. Genetics is our programming, think of it like software coding. God has given us a major software update but this must be received. I know there have been several times when my phone wanted to do a software update but I rejected it because the updates cause changes and I have to relearn how to do stuff.  Our bodies are God's temple now and I believe he is showing me that he wants the temple restored to it's original design, but we must receive the upgrade and take the time to learn how to do things in a new way. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that Jesus paid a great price so that our lives could be restored to God's original design. And we are asking for wisdom and understanding of what this means for us and for God's help to walk in this consistently. 

Today's Workout/Health Tip

Our bodies are God's temple and they have an amazing ability to be restored. How do we do it? I think there are some clues in 2 Chronicles 24:13. The people were charged - they were charged up, they worked with diligence, and made steady progress until the temple was restored. Then they strengthened it and reinforced it so that it would last. 

I am praying for you.
