Foundation

What is your foundation, friend?

 

At the bottom of everything in your life

what is your security

your strength

your purpose

your reason to live?

 

Maybe all you know

is to believe in your self.

 

And what happens when you fail?

Every self does.

 

Is your foundation crumbling?

Or is your foundation secure?

 

Because the only foundation

that will not crumble in the end

is Rock

 

My Rock is Jesus

 

He will not fail

He will not crumble

 

And because I am secure in Him

in His Truth

in His Word

in His Love

 

when I fail

I know He won’t

 

And we all need a foundation

 

for the walls we build

the walls of knowledge

of good works

of family

of purpose

 

will fall

without The Foundation

 

What a gift,

my Foundation

in Him

Those people who are listening to Me, those people who hear what I say and live according to My teachings—you are like a wise man who built his house on a rock, on a firm foundation.  When storms hit, rain pounded down and waters rose, levies broke and winds beat all the walls of that house. But the house did not fall because it was built upon rock.  Those of you who are listening and do not hear—you are like a fool who builds a house on sand.  When a storm comes to his house, what will happen? The rain will fall, the waters will rise, the wind will blow, and his house will collapse with a great crash.

– Matthew 7:24-27 (VOICE)

 

Therefore the Lord God says this, “Listen carefully, I am laying in Zion a Stone, a tested Stone, A precious Cornerstone for the [secure] foundation, firmly placed. He who believes [who trusts in, relies on, and adheres to that Stone] will not be disturbed or give way [in sudden panic].

– Isaiah 28:16 (AMP)

 

Come to Him [the risen Lord] as to a living Stone which men rejected and threw away, but which is choice and precious in the sight of God.  You [believers], like living stones, are being built up into a spiritual house for a holy and dedicated priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices [that are] acceptable and pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.

– 1 Peter 2:4-6 (AMP)

 

Jesus Christ is the Stone on which other stones for the building must be laid. It can be only Christ.

– 1 Corinthians 3:11 (NLV
