- Bible Reference: John 2:13-22, Bible Link: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+2%3A13-22&version=NIV, Bible Passage: When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!” His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.” The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?” Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” But the temple he had spoken of was his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.

What is in your life that is preventing you from fully God fully in spirit and truth? In John 2 Jesus gets frustrated when he sees that His temple of prayer is being defiled, and He drives out the things that are coming between the people and God.
We are no longer reliant on a temple building to come to worship God, instead the bible says that we are temples of the Holy Spirit. What needs driving out of your temple?
