Live A Holy Life - God gave us this gift of the Holy Spirit to help us live separated unto Him - to walk in holiness. Your body is not your own. You've been bought with a price. You've been paid for by the sacrifice of the Son of God. Your body belongs to God. It is the temple of the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit within you Who prompts you to do the will of God. Our being united to the Lord in such a way that the Holy Spirit of God is leading us, guiding us and directing us in life is holiness. So glorify Him in your body. Honor Him with your lifestyle

"For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's" (1 Corinthians 6:20).

Your body is not your own. 

Therefore what you do with it is not solely up to you.

You've been bought with a price. 

You've been paid for by the sacrifice of the Son of God. 

Your body belongs to God. 

It is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19).

The Amplified Bible says it is the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit.

God gave us this gift of the Holy Spirit to help us live separated unto Him - to walk in holiness

It is the Holy Spirit within you Who prompts you to do the will of God.

What would you expect if you received a spirit of unbelief? 

What would you expect that spirit to promote? Unbelief. 

If you received a spirit of lust, what would you expect that spirit to promote? Lust.

You haven't been given the spirit of unbelief or lust.

You have been given the Holy Spirit of God Himself. God's own holiness. 

His own Spirit came into us when we were born again.

To do what? 

To promote holiness and separation of our lives, our hearts, our very lifestyles, and every action unto God.

Some people say not doing certain things will make you holy … like you can't wear certain clothes, you can't wear your hairstyle a certain way, or you can't wear makeup, and so on.

None of those things will make you holy. They all only affect the outer man. 

Those kinds of things are of the Law, and the Law won't make you holy.

Only God's Spirit will make you holy. 

Our being united to the Lord in such a way that the Holy Spirit of God is leading us, guiding us, and directing us in life is holiness

God loves you. He paid a high price for you. 

So glorify Him in your body. Honor Him with your lifestyle. 

Obey the promptings of the Spirit of God within you.

Choose to live a holy life.

Speak the Word: I am bought with a price, therefore I glorify God in my body and in my spirit, which are His. (1 Corinthians 6:20)

lyrics

I bow my knee before Your throne
I know my life is not my own
I offer up this song of praise
To bring You pleasure Lord

I seek the giver not the gift
My heart's desire is to lift 
You high above all earthly kings

To bring You pleasure Lord

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, Glory to the King
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, Glory to the king

Highway of Holiness - the highway of holiness will be a place of joy. The redeemed of the Lord will walk there in peace and safety - all the redeemed of the Lord will enter the millennial kingdom rejoicing

Crown your mind perfecting holiness out of reverence for God - we are called to live a holy life, dedicated to God and separated from the world in our thoughts and intentions
