Holy Temple - Our Knees

This powerful message invites us to consider our bodies as living temples and specifically explores the profound spiritual significance of bending the knee before God. Drawing from Psalm 95, we're reminded that worship isn't merely an intellectual exercise but involves our whole being. The sermon unpacks two essential 'spiritual kneecaps': the kneecap of praise and the kneecap of prayer. Through the kneecap of praise, we acknowledge God's majesty, might, and role as both our Maker and Manager. He spans from the depths of the earth to the mountain peaks, from the vast seas to the dry land, yet intimately cares for us as His flock. The kneecap of prayer represents our devotion, dedication, and dependence on God. Like Daniel who prayed three times daily even in crisis, we're called to make prayer a lifestyle, not just a crisis response. The message challenges us to examine whether our knees are stiff because our hearts have grown callous, reminding us that the posture of our hearts matters more than the position of our bodies. Yet when our hearts are truly humble, our bodies naturally yearn to express that reverence. This isn't about physical ability but about spiritual surrender, recognizing that one day every knee will bow at the name of Jesus. The question becomes: will we offer our knees willingly today as a living sacrifice, or wait until that inevitable day of reckoning?
