PHANEROO~DEVOTION 26th February 2016 YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN II Apostle Grace Lubega

[1 Corinthians 6:19]; 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?

There was a time in life when some things were options to us. They were options because God has given us human will. For some of us, prayer was an option, giving was an option and preaching was an option. Human will has a grace that can be well used or abused. It is why Peter said never use your liberty for vice, a cloke of maliciousness. It is easy to use the grace of God for vice, like sinning for grace to abound.

Some things are options to many Christians. It is an option to pray or to lead a worship song. When you ask them why they did not come to pray, they answer lazily, ‘I just did not feel like leaving my bed to come for prayer.’

However, this is the wisdom of God; the times when those things were options was a place where our spirits were immature to who God is. Preaching is an option until a man grows up to maturity and like Paul says; for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! When Paul reached this place, he realized that the gospel is not something that had options.
