A Place for My Lord

Scripture Psalms 132:5 Until I find a place for the LORD, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

Observation: The psalm was David telling the Lord He was going to build a temple for Him, a place for the Lord. God has called my body a temple, but do I have a place for Him. My whole being should be a place for the Lord. What I do with my body, my thoughts, my actions, my words should glorify God, because this is His place. I want my Lord to feel at home here.

Application: I need to make my life ready for the Lord to reside in. I need to clean up my thoughts, actions and deeds so that my Lord will be comfortable. I need to give up my ownership of what I want and to sign over the papers to the rightful owner, My Lord.

Prayer: Make this temple your home, a place for you. Help me clean out my sinful ways and make it the home you desire. Remodel it so it has all the features you desire of me.
