~ JESUS SAYS A SOLID FOUNDATION IS IMPORTANT
In this brand new year, and ever so unstable world around us, we all need some stability in our lives.
Beloved, I submit to you that as believers in Christ, building a solid and firm foundation for our lives is of utmost importance for our creator, God Himself.
Jesus Christ(God in flesh) made sure that we understand the importance of a solid foundation by the metaphor of builders.
He compared someone with a solid and firm foundation to a builder who built his house on unshakable foundation, and called that person wise.
On the other hand Jesus also declared that a foolish man would build his house on sand.
In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus said:
”So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, will be like a wise man [a far-sighted, practical, and sensible man]who built his house on the rock.
And the rain fell, and the floods and torrents came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them, will be like a foolish (stupid) man who built his house on the sand.
And the rain fell, and the floods and torrents came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great and complete was its fall.”
We will look into the metaphorical “house” in our next devotional.
NOW LET US PRAY
Lord Jesus, thank You for Your teachings on building a solid foundation.
Give us the grace to hear Your Words and do them according to Your will.
I pray You would grant each one of us a solid foundation as we trust you.
In Jesus’mighty name I pray. Amen 
Have a blessed day
