Praying from 1 Corinthians 3:17. Themes: Holiness, Judgment, Temple

Dear God, please help me to always remember that your temple is holy and that I am a part of it. Please protect me from any harm or destruction that may come my way, and help me to honor and respect your temple in all that I do. May I never be the cause of any destruction or harm to your temple, and may I always strive to keep it pure and holy. Thank you for your love and protection, and for making me a part of your holy temple. Amen.

Verse: If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are.
1 Corinthians 3:17

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader to not destroy God’s temple, which is holy and includes themselves.
