We Build On The Rock

What if - We build on the rock!?

Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but 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 man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it. Matthew 7:24-27 ESV

Material Matters!

Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man. Mathew 7:24 ESV

The whole point of the parable is that God’s truth must to be lived, not just learned.

What you build your life out of is a really big deal.

Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man. Mathew 7:26 ESV

Use the right Builder!

Unless the LORD builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted. Psalm 127:1 NLT

Jesus came as the Messiah in the manger and as a Master Builder with a blue print and a hard hat.

You can’t build a life without the Lord and expect it to last.

Believing in who Jesus is and what He can do changes everything about how live lives!
