Romans 12:1-2 Our Bodies As Sacrifice

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Our bodies are not our own - They belong to the Lord as our sacrifice. Our bodies should not be found doing detestable things, because they were given to us for service. Our bodies should be holy just as Christ is holy, set aside for his purposes. Daily Prayer: Lord help us to understand that our bodies are your and not to use them as a vehicle for sin. Make this detestable in our minds so that we are prone to obey You. In your holy name I pray Amen.
