Protect Your Temple: Day 1 • Devotional Take Care of Your Body If you are over 30, you may recall an early ad campaign from the sportswear company Under Armor in which a football player gives a motivational speech to his teammates. Towards the end, he states, “We must protect this house! Will you protect this house!” When I think about my house, I typically think about my family and physical home. What about your physical body? Don’t we dwell within our bodies? In 1 Corinthians 3:16, Paul writes, “Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?” Later, Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 6:19, “Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God?” Our bodies are temples where the Holy Spirit dwells. God gave us only one body in this life. Our families, friends, and livelihood depend on our physical bodies functioning at a high level. Taking care of our bodies is our responsibility. Like many things in life, we have a choice. Do you do things to take care of your body or not? Do you treat your body with respect? Do you get proper nourishment? Do you get enough exercise? Do you get enough rest? This plan will encourage you to take better care of your body and physical health. We must protect this house!

As our kids were growing up, Saturday was always chore day at the Hutchcraft house. It was the day we got our leaves raked and bagged, rooms got cleaned – or hosed out like a monkey cage – it was the day the garage got dug out, the dirty clothes got clean, broken things got fixed, you know. Now it wasn’t that kids jumped out of bed on Saturday morning saying, “What do you have for me to do today, Dad?” No, Saturday mornings often involved some delicate labor negotiations – especially when it came to someone getting a job that meant more time and more dirty work than some of the others. That child might say, “I don’t want to do Job A. I want Job B.” To which I would reply, “I pay the allowances and the bonuses around here. (See, usually there was extra pay for extra work). Don’t forget lesson #1 of working – you don’t pick your jobs. The person who pays you decides the jobs you’ll do.”
Well, I’m Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You about “The Jobs We Don’t Want To Do.”
Now our word for today from the Word of God comes from Acts 10, where Simon Peter is being assigned by His boss to do an unpleasant chore. Peter has been preaching Christ to Jewish audiences who knew the Scriptures and respected God’s laws. Now, God wants Peter to now reach out to go to the house of Cornelius, a Roman military leader, to reach out to this Gentile. Now Peter’s lifelong feeling about Gentiles could be summed up in one word – “yuck!” They didn’t know the Bible; they ate what the Jewish law called unclean foods; they lived outside God’s laws. Well, God sends Peter a vision to prepare him for this job he is not going to want to do. It’s a vision of a sheet with animals that Peter, as a Jew, considers unclean to eat.
Acts 10:13 – “Then a voice told him, ‘Get up, Peter, Kill and eat.’ ‘Surely not, Lord!’ Peter replied. ‘I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.’ The voice spoke to him a second time, ‘Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’ This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven.” Well, immediately Peter finds at his door men who have come to invite him to the house of Cornelius, the Gentile. The Bible says, “Peter said to the men, ‘I’m the one you’re looking for’…Then Peter invited the men into the house to be his guests.” And the next day he’s off to meet Cornelius.
God gave Peter a job he really didn’t want to do. But Peter knew who the Boss was, and that the One who pays you decides the job you’ll do. Peter obeyed, and it led to some amazing results. Now maybe God has given you an unpleasant chore, and you’re balking, just like my kids on a Saturday morning.
It could be God is leading you to befriend a person who isn’t very attractive, who may be pretty demanding. Or the assignment may be to share Christ with someone who isn’t much fun to be around or is hard to talk to; or to minister to a group of people that you find irritating or even repulsive; possibly to work closely with someone who is definitely not your type. Whatever the job you don’t feel like doing, tell the Lord your reservations – like Peter. Then go ahead and do it anyway – like Peter. And like Peter, you’ll probably get some important results – in what it will do for them and how it will grow you.
I’m really glad Jesus doesn’t just hang around with people who are His type – you and I wouldn’t stand a chance. No, He will reward you generously for doing the unpleasant chores, the ones that will stretch you. So if your Lord is giving you a job you don’t want to do, will you trust His judgment over yours? Then start on it today without delay. It is an assignment Jesus has been preparing for you long before today. Believe me, doing what the Boss says to do will pay off!

Ephesians 5:8-14 ESV [8] for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light [9] (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), [10] and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. [11] Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. [12] For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. [13] But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, [14] for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
https://bible.com/bible/59/eph.5.8-14.ESV 2 Corinthians 4:6 ESV [6] For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Fire is sometimes used to represent life. As you saw that can be snuffed out by the world, but we have an eternal light that is shining through us. Engaging to Impact is simple a smile, hug, holding a door, or saying an encouraging word.
Matthew 5:14-16 ESV [14] “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. [15] Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. [16] In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Luke 8:16 ESV [16] “No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 1 Peter 5:6-10 ESV A good affirmation that you are not alone in your struggles. There is season for everything. God will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.

Chimney Mountain! I had to get to the top of it. Why? Because it was there! Of course, I had to drag my young family into this obsession with me. One vacation day, I made that “Daddy’s Great Adventure for the Day.” Now it wasn’t a steep hike; a trail through the woods that gradually took you to the top of the mountain. As we walked along, my wife and the kids kept noticing little things – like chipmunks and squirrels and flowers and interesting rocks. Of course, whenever we noticed one of those little things, we had to stop; which was not my favorite thing to do. I had a goal, folks, and chipmunks and interesting rocks didn’t help me get to it. At one point, they stopped us just to listen to the wind blowing through the tall pine trees. That’s nice, you know, but not if you wanted to see the top of Chimney Mountain before sunset. Finally, my frustration made it to my mouth, “Honey, the reason for this hike is to get to the top. Don’t you understand?” To which she said something like this: “Oh, I thought we came to enjoy the hike.” Great! I was interested in the result; she was interested in the process!
I’m Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “Pushing the Goal, Missing the Process.”
Later, my wife and I were reflecting on our different perspectives about our Chimney Mountain expedition (and we did finally get to the top, by the way). My wife said, “I wonder if this was a little like God and us. We are more interested in getting the result we want, and He’s more interested in the process.”
Our word for today from the Word of God comes from 2 Samuel 22:31, “As for God, His way is perfect.” I think when the Bible talks about God’s way, it isn’t just talking about where we end up. It’s talking about the road He takes us on; the methods He uses. OK, I’ll have to agree with my wife – the process. And His process is always perfect, but certainly not predictable.
In Isaiah 55:8-9 it says, and God is speaking here, “‘For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,’ declares the Lord. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than your thoughts.'” God’s ways, God’s means of getting us to the answer are unpredictable: “beyond finding out” in the words of Romans 11.
Which brings us to whatever mountain you’re working on right now. If you’re like me, you’re focused on the result you need: the money, the life partner, the healing, the place to live, the job, the change, the answer! You’re in a hurry to get to the top of the mountain. But God, the God whose ways are perfect, is asking you to slow down and enjoy the hike, let the process be beautiful, not just the destination.
The easy part for God is giving you your answer; showing you the top of the mountain. The hard part for God is you – getting you to be the man or woman He redeemed you to be. And He’s using this climb to develop faith in you, or deeper personal holiness, or humility, or to move you from trusting in yourself to totally trusting in Him. He wants you to become a better you on the way to the answer that you want so much.
I’m by nature a goal-oriented person. Just ask my fellow hikers. But in recent years, God’s teaching me an exciting new way to pray: “Lord, I ask You for this answer we need, but please do it in Your time and in the way that will bring You the most glory and us the most growth.” Surrender to your Lord is more than just, “God, give us what You think is best.” It’s a total surrender to whatever timetable He wants, whatever process He wants to use, and whatever He wants to make you go through on your climb up the mountain.
We want to scale the mountain. God wants to change the mountain climber, and He’s using the trail to show you what you need to be. You are His goal. So, enjoy the process.

In high school, our teenage son lived a very, very busy life which I think might go with having this last name. And I could sometimes find him finally ending up on the couch for just kind of a collapse, you know, and he deserved it. He would set up this little comfort zone there. He’d have his New York Giants mug, and his school books, and his TV guide, in case he had time to watch. And most important, he had his phone. Unfortunately, the phone hooked up two rooms away. That means the cord was stretched to the max to get it to the couch, and I could tell when he had the phone there, because I kept hearing people muttering through the house after they tripped over the cord. It was right where everybody had to walk to get to the living room or to the kitchen. And I’d say, “Son, you’ve got to do something about this thing that people keep tripping over.” Well, so do you!
I’m Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “The Tripper Upper.”
Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Romans 2:24. It’s a sobering indictment of first-century Jewish believers. Listen to these words, “As it is written, God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.” “The Gentiles” really means the unreached people, and basically the Jews were the reached people. And He is saying, “You believers, you know, because of you, the unreached people are blaspheming God.” He talks a little bit about why, for example in chapter 2, verse 21. He says, “You then who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? You who brag about the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law?” Then He says, “God’s name is blasphemed because of you. You’re not living what you say you believe, and people are tripping over the contradictions.” It’s like my son’s telephone cord. It’s in the way. You’ve got to ask, what is there in my life that may be keeping someone from Jesus and from heaven?
It’s a terrible thought to think that someone might end up in hell forever because I turned them off to Jesus by my inconsistency. Maybe your temper is canceling out your message about a loving Savior. Maybe the humor that you use is contradicting the purity that you say Jesus stands for. Maybe your sarcasm is a little hard to reconcile with the compassion of Jesus. Maybe your gossip and your backstabbing is confusing people. Maybe it’s the fact that you tend to be so negative. Maybe it’s your laziness at school, or your complaining attitude, or your laziness at work. You know, a Christian ought to be the best employee that an employer’s got, so that they give credit to the name of Jesus.
You ought to be the hardest-working student in that class whether you get the best grades or not. You’re an advertisement for your Savior. I know you’d hate to be a reason for someone to reject Christ, all because you never dealt with your “tripper upper.”
Actually, if you would let Jesus change that part of you; that part that is out of control, that’s inconsistent, that’s confusing to an unbeliever, it might just create the curiosity they need to start investigating a life-changing Christ. It might give you the best opening you’ve ever had to share Christ. They’re going to say, “Man, what happened to you,” because it will be in an area where they never saw you this way before. And that is a powerful testimony.
My son and I had to solve that cord problem before someone got hurt, and he had to do something about the thing that kept tripping people up. I hope you’ll do that in your spiritual life. I believe that you can provide an uncluttered path to the Jesus who your friends so desperately need if you’ll just get rid of that “tripper upper.”

3rd F Rest your Body There is a classic video in which a brother and his younger sister are having a snack. The sister is irrationally crying. The brother quickly asks, “Did you have a nap today?” The sister responds, “I didn’t.” The brother cutely follows with, “You need one.” In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to overlook the importance of physical rest. We often push ourselves to the limit, believing constant activity equates to productivity and success. However, the Bible reminds us of the necessity of rest and its role in our spiritual and physical well-being. In Matthew 11: 28-29, we read, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me because I am lowly and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Jesus invites us to come to Him when we are weary and burdened. This invitation is not just for spiritual rest but also physical rest. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), and caring for them is a form of worship. When we neglect rest, we can become physically and spiritually depleted, making it harder to serve God and others effectively. Here are a few practical applications to think about. First, prioritize sleep. Ensure you get adequate sleep each night. Aim for 7-9 hours to allow your body to repair and rejuvenate. Second, think about a Sabbath rest each week. Set aside one day a week to rest from your usual work and activities. Use this time to focus on God, family, and activities that refresh your spirit. Third, listen to your body. Pay attention to signs of fatigue and take breaks when needed. It’s okay to rest and recharge. Remember, taking time to rest is not a sign of weakness but a recognition of our need for God’s sustaining grace. Embrace rest as a divine gift and a necessary part of your spiritual journey.
Matthew 11:28-29 ESV [28] Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. [29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. https://bible.com/bible/59/mat.11.28-29.ESV
