THE LIVING GOD’S HABITATION

from Barbara's Bible

Where do you #abide?  Where do you sleep?  Where do you eat?  Where do you relax?  Where is your shelter?  Where is your family gathering?  In other words do you have a #habitation?  I realize that all too many people are homeless today because of wars, storms, finances, domestic problems, or just bad choices from addictions.  Recently, I had a bad storm to cause two huge pecan trees to fall destroying the garage.  First, I needed the trees removed, but the ground was so saturated that the large equipment could not be supported to do the work required for demolition.  After weeks of more rain, the sun shone and the drainage allowed for tree removal, but then to disassemble all the roof, walls, and content took another week.  Getting bids on construction was another taunting endeavor.  The builders had to start from the foundation up working between more rainy days!   As of today, carpenter work is progressing with rafters almost completed with the roofer on standby.    All this turmoil over rebuilding has me turning to God’s Word where He shows me access to His habitation!  Ephesians 2:18-22 “through Him we have access by one Spirit unto the Father.  Now you are no more strangers or foreigners, but fellow-citizens with the saints, and OF THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD: and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building fitly framed together grows unto an holy temple in the LORD:  IN WHOM YOU ALSO ARE BUILT TOGETHER FOR AN HABITATION OF GOD THROUGH THE SPIRIT.”  I want to be God’s habitation!
