What the Bible Says About New Year’s Resolutions

Nonetheless, the Word of God does offer numerous behavioral guidelines for whatever you are resolving to do or not do in 2024. Example: If your New Year’s resolution includes dieting, keep this verse in mind: “Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?” (1 Corinthians 3:16). So, the next time you dine out, before ordering sweet potato fries (my favorite) instead of the steamed broccoli, say to yourself, “My body is God’s temple,” and then feel biblically empowered as you ingest the broccoli.
