Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there forever, and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
2 Chronicles 7:15-16
Find Yourself in God’s Word
The above verse was referring to the temple Solomon built. It was a physical place where God’s presence was known. But when Jesus came, He showed us that God’s plan was bigger than a building. He said God’s plan was to live in us and we would worship Him “in spirit and in truth” (John 4:21–24).
Not everything that happened to the people in the Bible applies to you. So how do you find yourself in God’s Word? Look at what God said, see how it points to Jesus, and then discover what it means for you today.
Remember, you are now God’s temple. His Spirit lives in you, and you carry His presence wherever you go.
Read Your Bible.

Speak the Word!
“As I learn more about what Jesus has done for me, I understand what God’s Word says about me and know who I am in Christ.“
