FOCAL TEXT: 1 Corinthians 6 vs 20
►► “For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.~| KJV |

BLESSED greetings, Cherished one. Apostle Paul unveiled a lot about Christian conduct in the Church. There were reports of immorality and brothers not forgiving each other. Issues among the brethren were taking to court creating a lot of contentions. He even said in 1 Corinthians 6:5-6 “I say this to your shame! Is there no one among you wise enough to settle disputes between fellow Christians? Instead, does a Christian sue a Christian, and do this before unbelievers?”
It is a result of these conducts that the Apostle Paul admonished them. And He did this by putting them in remembrance of their identity in Christ. He taught them that their bodies are the members of Christ, not immorality. He also told them their bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and that they are not of their own. He also unveils they are bought with a price. Our focal text then unveils how to live as one bought with a price. And that is by glorifying God in your body and in your spirit. Hallelujah!
This implies bringing a good reputation to God and manifesting that which calls forth praise to Him. Every conduct of yours should bring Him glory not shame. The way you talk, think and act should bring God glory not otherwise. In Christ, you conduct yourself base on who you are in Him. The more you know Christ, the more you know your identity in Him; and the more your mind would be renewed to glorify God in all areas of your life. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always.

I DECLARE
My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. My bodily members belong to Christ. I am not my own. Therefore, I am empowered to glorify God in my body and spirit. I refuse to live anyhow. I manifest the Christ-life by the power of His Spirit at work in me. Hallelujah!
