What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,
“I will live in them and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
Therefore come out from them,
and be separate from them, says the Lord,
and touch nothing unclean;
then I will welcome you,
and I will be your father,
and you shall be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.”
Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and of spirit, making holiness perfect in the fear of God.
(2 Corinthians 6:16-7:1, NRSV)
I will live in them and walk among them, and I will be their God.
What a promise!
Sometimes it is hard for us as humans to believe in promises. Because we know what it is like to be on the end of a broken promise. To have someone tell us we can trust on them and they let us down.
And sometimes it seems like we are losing everything around us, but even in the darkest valley, God is always with us, and He will never break His promise. The rainbow reminds us of that!
So allow His love to permeate your life as He fills you with His Spirit, and let Him ever walk with you!
