Coffee Time with Jesus

  • The Father: The God of my Fathers
    But this I confess to you,
    that according to the Way which they call a sect,
    so I worship the God of my fathers,
    believing all things which are written in the Law
    and in the Prophets.
    Acts 24:14
     
    Paul worshiped the God of His Fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. The God of all true believers in the Old Testament is the God we worship today. When the Lord called Abraham and Abraham obeyed, the Lord became his God. When Isaac lived in the Promised Land, the Lord was his God. When Jacob had 12 sons, the Lord was his God, and each of his sons made the Lord his God. Just as the Lord was the God who protected and guided Israel in the Old Testament, He will be your God to help you today.
     
    O Lord, I’ve always believed in You, but when I became a Christian, You became my personal God. Now I worship You.
     
    Just as the Jews wandering in the wilderness worshiped the Lord in the Tabernacle, the Lord wants you to worship Him from the sanctuary of your body. Just as the Lord entered the Old Testament Temple in a Shekinah glory cloud, so He entered your body when you were saved. The Lord’s presence makes any dwelling a sanctuary; today He’ll make your body His temple.
     
    O God of My Fathers, come make Your home in my body. I worship You as did Paul; come be with me as You were with Paul. Be glorified through my body today. Amen.
     
    Go Deeper: 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
     
    The Lord will dwell in your body just as He dwelt in the Temple.
