But anyone who hears and doesn’t obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. When the floods sweep down against that house, it will collapse into a heap of ruins. – Luke 6:49(NLT)
BUILDING A STRONG FOUNDATION
A poem and essay by ILMA
Those who hear the word of God and obey
They are relying on his strength and might each day
Their foundation is solid and will not collapse
They will not be swept down and they will adapt.
Those who does not heed God’s guidance in his word
They will find it difficult to navigate this world
Building a strong foundation in God’s truth
Makes you strong and allows the Spirit to bear fruit.
________________________________________
When people build their houses, they have to make sure that the foundation is strong enough so that they can ensure a house that will be stable to hold up in the midst of weather changes. Can it withstand storms, floods, earthquakes, fires and other disasters?
Building a strong foundation is crucial even in our spiritual lives.
The bible tells us that Jesus is the rock that we can build our lives on. Anyone who seeks God and obey him is actually building a strong foundation that will stand the most challenging trials and tests that will come their way. It cautions those who hear his word and not heed it. They will collapse and be ruined.
PRAYER
Lord, help me to never stop abiding in you and seeking you.
REFLECTION
What aspects of your life needs a strong foundation?

A HOUSE WITHOUT FOUNDATION
A poem and essay by ILMA
A house without foundation will easily disintegrate
Just as a person would fail without a walk of faith
Anyone who hears God’s word and don’t obey
Will bring a heap of ruins and will easily be swayed.
Without a relationship and intimacy with the Lord
You will be consumed and corrupted by the world
When you decide to seek, hear and follow God’s word
You will be strong and will be like a soldier for the Lord.
There are many Christians who do not walk their talk. You will see it with the way they interact with others. They live double lives, pretending to be what who they are really not. They want to show others that they are good but their minds and hearts are full of un-forgiveness and wickedness. I used to be like this counterfeit Christian. Thank God that he delivered me from hypocrisy.
The bible says that anyone who hears God’s word and doesn’t obey will be weak and easily collapse with challenges. On the other hand, those who obey God’s word, they will have a strong foundation and will not be easily tossed.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for giving me strength.
REFLECTION
How strong is your foundation with God?
