We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
The Psalmist reminded us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that God created us with something definite planned for us to do with our lives (Psalm 139:13-15). We display his craftsmanship, his artistry, his skill when we intentionally live for him and not like the rest of the world. Paul deepens this truth in our verse today as he writes about being saved by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-10). We have been recreated in Christ Jesus to continue the good work of Jesus as we become more and more JESUShaped (Colossians 1:28-29) and as the Holy Spirit continues God's transformative work in us, making us more and more like Christ (2 Corinthians 3:18). So, let's get about doing the work of Christ the Father created us to do!
Master, Father, and LORD, please teach me to recognize your opportunities and your will when they come into my life. I want to live for you without reservation, doing the good work you created me to do. I pray for boldness to not be shy in sharing my faith. I pray for patience as I wait before I respond. I pray for your protection for those close to coming to Christ. I pray not for me but for your Kingdom to be displayed in my life by the way I live and the good things I do to your glory. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.
We are God's temple! God lives in us! We are a holy dwelling of the living and almighty God! WOW!
We were made Holy by the price Jesus paid to redeem us (1 Peter 1:18-20). So, now what we do in our bodies is part of the worship we give to God just as much as what we do when we get together with other Christians in worship (Romans 12:1-2). We are called to not only abstain from impurity, but we are called to glorify God in our bodies and honor the sacrifice of Jesus by living holy lives each day. This is worship because we are where God lives through his Spirit. Holy living is not a burden, but a way to say "Thank you!" and offer praise to God for what he has done for us and what he has made in us! We are the temple of God in the Holy Spirit!
Father, I confess to you that I sometimes lose sight of how precious my body is to you and how important what I do with my body is in giving you thanks and praise. With physical temptations so near, I easily forget that it is a holy temple, a place of honor and worship that I offer to you. With aging and the other challenges that daily remind me that my body is a vessel of decay (2 Corinthians 4:16-18), I find it hard to believe that I can glorify you with it. Please, through your indwelling Spirit, quicken me to a deeper reverence and appreciation for your presence in me as you renew my body, your temple, day by day. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Our treasure and our truth come from God's holy Scriptures. The Scriptures are God's guidance for us and his treasures, given to us as the Holy Spirit leads us to understand and apply them as we reach to become more like Jesus (1 Corinthians 2:10-12). They teach us how to avoid the evil one's harmful traps and to live God's blessed life (2 Timothy 3:14-17). Rather than seeing God's Scriptures as limiting us in this life, we need to see them as a gift of love to bless us, to prevent us from falling into the traps of this life, and to lead us into life forever with God. We can come to value them more highly than riches, for in them we will find our great reward, both in this life and the life to come (Psalm 19:11).
Holy God, thank you for your written Word, the Scriptures, and your "living" Word (Hebrews 4:12), also the Scriptures when used by the Holy Spirit. May your truth come alive in my life just as it does in my heart and mind. In the name of your Son Jesus, your living Word who fulfilled the Scriptures, I pray. Amen.
