Matthew 21:12-13 - Jesus went into the Temple, drove out the merchants, and knocked over the money changers’ tables and the stalls of those selling doves. “The Scriptures say my Temple is a place of prayer,” he declared, “but you have turned it into a den of thieves.”
Jesus’ second day in Jerusalem was as eventful as his first (Triumphant entry into Jerusalem). According to scripture and tradition, Monday of Passion week was when Jesus cleansed the temple. The cleansing of the temple at the very least illustrates how concerned He is with the purity of our heart and worship.
If we profess to be saved by God’s grace, love, and mercy than we too are a temple of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9 says that our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, if we are a temple of God and Christ abides in us and with us, than we too need to consistently search our heart for things that doesn’t please the Lord.
In this Passion Monday, let us pray and ask God to purge our hearts and fill them to maximum capacity with His love, wisdom, and understanding, so that we can start living our lives with Him and through Him, finding good even in the bad that surrounds us.
Be Blessed.
