Our life is like a house. How we live our life is how we build our house. If we want our house to stand and not fall, we must lay a foundation for our house on a rock.
Our Rock is Jesus. He is the Eternal and Almighty God, the
Creator of the Universe. He is our Savior, Friend, Deliverer, and Healer. He is
our Refuge and Strength, an ever-present help in time of trouble.
The foundation for our house is repentance – turning our
life from sinful living to holy living; baptism in the name of Jesus – making a
covenant to live our life for God; and receiving the Holy Ghost – the Spirit of
Jesus to lead, teach, comfort, love, and strengthen us.
When our life is built on Jesus, the storms of life cannot
shake us. Jesus is with us and will see us through whatever life may bring.
"Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and
doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: 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.
“But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that
without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream
did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was
great." - Luke 6:47-49 KJV
{Acts 2:38, Heb.6:1-2, 1Co 3:9-17, 2Tim.2:19-22}
