Scriptures courtesy of www.biblegateway.com
The book of the generation of JESUS CHRIST, the Son of David, the son of Abraham.
And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is HE+ that cometh in the name of the LORD; Hosanna in the highest.
And JESUS answered and said, while HE+ taught in the temple, How say the scribes that CHRIST is the Son of David?
And when he heard that it was JESUS of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, JESUS, THOU+ Son of David, have mercy on me.
And he cried, saying, JESUS, THOU+ Son of David, have mercy on me
Concerning HIS Son+ JESUS CHRIST our LORD, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh.
2 Chronicles 6: 7,8,9
~ words of Solomon the King of Israel
at the dedication of the Temple ~
Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD GOD of Israel.
But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for MY Name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:
Notwithstanding
thou shalt not build the house;
BUT THY SON
which shall come forth out of thy loins,
HE+
shall build
the HOUSE for MY NAME.
This hidden prophecy tells us WHY King David was not allowed to build the House of The LORD: The TYPE was that David's Son+ was to build it.
Yes, Solomon built the Temple in this context and was in the midst of dedicating it.
But the primary Word+ of The LORD
was established
in this prophetic utterance ,
although concealed.
It was revealed in the New Covenant
through JESUS CHRIST our LORD.
We heard HIM+ say, I+ will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I+ will build another made without hands.
And they that passed by railed on HIM+ , wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, THOU+ that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,
And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
JESUS answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I+ will raise it up.
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt THOU+ rear it up in three days?
But HE+ spake of the temple of His+ Body.
And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
Ephesians 2: 20 - 22
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, JESUS CHRIST Himself+ being the Chief Corner Stone+;
In WHOM+ all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the LORD:
In WHOM+ ye also are builded together for an habitation of GOD through the SPIRIT.
2 Corinthians 6:15-17
And what concord hath CHRIST with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
And what agreement
hath the temple of God with idols?
for ye are the temple
of the Living GOD;
as GOD hath said,
I+ will dwell in them,
and walk in them;
and I+ will be their GOD,
and they shall be My+ people.
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the LORD, and touch not the unclean thing; and I+ will receive you.
Know ye not that
ye are the temple of GOD,
and that the SPIRIT of GOD
dwelleth in you?
If any man defile the temple of GOD,
him shall GOD destroy;
for the temple of GOD is holy,
which temple ye are.
What?
know ye not that
your body is the temple
of the Holy SPIRIT
which is in you,
which ye have of GOD,
and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a Price+:
therefore glorify GOD in your body,
and in your spirit,
which are GOD's.
+ + +
Did HE+ do that in your life ? Has the Son+ of David built His+ Temple within you ? Does it function in Holiness of Life ?
Are you a living reality of the Temple of GOD, of the HOLY SPIRIT , of JESUS CHRIST our LORD ?
Notwithstanding
thou shalt not build the house;
BUT THY SON
which shall come forth out of thy loins,
HE+
shall build
the HOUSE for MY NAME.
