Not only we are the house of the Triune God, but we have also become the temple of the living God. Though triune being lives in this house, however it is a temple through which we manifest his presence. Solomon’s temple was glorious, so much so that God’s glory filled the temple to an extent that those ministering would be slain in the spirit (2 Chronicles 5:14).
As the Bible says in Haggai 2:9, “The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house.”
But 2 Corinthians 6:16 says, “… for we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them…”.
In Greek, the word for ‘walk among them’ is ‘enperipateo’ made of three Greek words ‘En’ meaning ‘in’, ‘peri’ meaning ‘concerning’, ‘pateo’ meaning ‘trampling’ and putting them altogether we get the perception that God is living inside us and is concerned about us and continually trampling all the works of the enemy through us.
The Triune God is living inside you to set the things right if they have gone wrong or missing or broken. The sole purpose of the Triune God living inside us is to destroy and trample the devil under our feet. One of the greatest pleasures of our God is to see the church destroy the devil.
In 1 Corinthians 7:17 “Nevertheless, each one should retain the place in life that Lord assigned to him and to which God has called him….”
In Greek, the word for ‘retain the place” is ‘peripateo’ which is combination of ‘peri’ meaning ‘around’ and ‘pateo’ meaning ‘trample, so the assignment and your calling is trampling of the devil under your feet. His intent in Ephesians 3:10 was that through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms. If I elaborate this verse it will take many pages which I cannot do here. But I would like to touch the periphery of this verse so that you will understand why the Triune God is staying inside us?
