You Are Not Your Own!

Paul writing to the church at Corinth in chapter 6:19-20 says, "What know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." Mark these words, "ye are not your own", for they are at the foundation of most believer's problems. We aren't in charge of our lives, God is. If we don't believe it, we will be taught by the Holy Spirit that it is true. Most problems can be linked to our refusing to obey God and his word. The prevailing reason that we disobey is that we want to do our own thing in our own way. Are we not able to see that we cannot serve God and self at the same time? Life has got to be lived in God way at God's time. Anything else falls short of the glory of God for we are not our own we are bought with a price.
