The Bible teaches that God is everywhere. He is omnipresent. However, God's will is to indwell believers. He makes His home in our hearts. Believers in Jesus Christ become the house of God. We are God's temple. The Holy Spirit is in us. "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God" (1 Corinthians 6:19).
God's temple is in all who truly believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit indwells us to do God's will. He changes our hearts. He gives us new desires. God works in us according to His good pleasure. "For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure" (Philippians 2:13). God is pleased with us, because the Holy Spirit is working in us.
We are God's temple. He works in our mind, will, and emotions. He is doing more in us than we can understand. He is always doing more than we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). The Lord will use our lives to bring glory to His name. The Holy Spirit gives us the ability to do God's will.
Thank God today that you are God's temple. Rest in the assurance that He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Rely on God's ability to do more through you. Give God all the glory for what He does in you and through you. Remember, wherever you go and whatever you do, the Holy Spirit is in you.
