Are You Building on a Good Foundation?
“He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.” Luke 6:48 (KJV)
The kind of foundation on which one builds their life determines their stability and establishment. The Kingdom of God is forever blessed because Jesus Christ is its head. He made a profound statement that should attract the attention of every child of God, if only we want our works and life to remain relevant till eternity. He said whoever comes to Him hears His sayings and does them is like a man who builds his house on the rock (Luke 6:47–48). Dear beloved, why have you come to Jesus? The primary reason for coming to Christ Jesus is to obtain salvation for your soul. After obtaining salvation for your soul, it doesn’t end there. You must remain in Christ and follow Him through His Word – the Holy Scriptures – and build your life (John 10:27). As you put His Word and teachings into practice, your faith becomes strengthened, and you become established and rooted in Him. It becomes easy to work with the Holy Spirit and to appreciate His leading in your life. As seen in the opening scripture, the flood and stream or torrent represent challenges in life. Beloved, there will always be one particular challenge or another rising in your life, therefore, don’t be surprised when it comes. Be rooted in the Word of God and follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in you, and you will overcome them because you have built your life in the Word of God, the unshakable rock. Hallelujah! Glory to God!
