About this Episode
- 1 Corinthians 3:16 (MSG) You realize, don’t you, that you are the temple of God, and God himself is present in you?
- 1 Corinthians 3:1-23 (NKJV) “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.
- 2, I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;
- 3, for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?
- 4, For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
- 5, Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but MINISTERS through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?
- 6, I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.
- 7, So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
- 8, Now he who plants and he who waters ARE ONE, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
- 9, For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building.
- 10, According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.
- 11, For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
- 12, Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
- 13, each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is.
- 14, If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward.
- 15, If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
- 16, Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
- 17, If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.
- 18, Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.
- 19, For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their own craftiness”;
- 20, and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.”
- 21, Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:
- 22, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come—all are yours.
- 23, And you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.”

Worship - It's a Heart Thing P2
John 4, paraphrase- “The hour has come for true worshipers to worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him”
Spirit and Truth is 100% a heart thing. It’s an act of faith, honoring God with our voice, declaring our gratitude, adoration and devotion.
Worship - It's A Heart Thing
1 Samuel 16:7 (NKJV) But the Lord said to Samuel, Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.
Rightly Dividing The Word
Hebrews 5:11-14 (NLT) There is much more we would like to say about this, but it is difficult to explain, especially since you are spiritually dull and don’t seem to listen.
12, You have been believers so long now that you ought to be teaching others. Instead, you need someone to teach you again the basic things about God’s word. You are like babies who need milk and cannot eat solid food.
13, For someone who lives on milk is still an infant and doesn’t know how to do what is right.
14, Solid food is for those who are mature, who through training have the skill to recognize the difference between right and wrong.
NKJV, to be able to recognize between sound and unsound doctrine.
Get Used to Different P3
At some point each of us needs to ask ourselves, are we willing to let Jesus interrupt your our habits, our routine, what we’ve grown comfortable with?
Get Used to Different P2
Psalm 37:3-5 (NKJV) “Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.”
Remember, Jesus told us, “My yoke is easy and My burden is light” Psalm 37 makes light and easy possible. And as a disciple, understanding His ways are different is a big part of our success.
As a disciple change is unavoidable, the challenge with change is that it disrupts our routine, and our habits, deceiving us into becoming comfortable with our old problems instead of being uncomfortable embracing a new solution.

Prophesy Your Life P4
1 Corinthians 14:1 (NKJV) “Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.”
This talk is all about making ourselves more available to the things of the Spirit? Exercising our faith, speaking the prophetic over our lives regardless of our situation. “Son of man, can these bones live?”
Using God-inspired words to set the course of our lives.
Prophesy Your Life P3
Psalm 133:1-3 (NKJV) “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!
It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments.
It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing— Life forevermore.” (Like Minded) Unified with one mind and purpose
