Staying Rock Solid |
THE SCRIPTURE |
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” |
(Matthew 7:24, NIV) |
THE WORD |
When we have rock-solid faith, we won’t be moved by
what’s happening around us. We have peace in our hearts and minds
because our hope is in God. We have an attitude that says: “I’m not
moved by this medical report. I respect and honor people that are trying
to help me, but I know God can do what medical science cannot do. God
made my body.” “I’m not moved by the economy, the stock market, my job
situation. I know God supplies all of my needs. He promised He would
prosper me even in a recession.” “I’m not moved by how my children are
acting. I’m not stressed out because they’re off course, making poor
choices. I know it’s only a matter of time. As for me and my house, we
will serve the Lord.”
Friend, that’s unshakeable faith. That’s building your
house on a rock-solid foundation. When the storms of life come, you
won’t be moved. How do you stay rock solid? By meditating on the Word of
God and following His commands. It’s that simple. Instead of making
your circumstances the focus, you make God the focus and stand strong
and secure in Him! Today, make spending time with God your number one
priority and learn to stay rock solid in Him!
