“A House On The Rock Or Sand?”
Saturday, January 18, 2025Key Verse
“And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock”(Matthew 7:25).
Text —Matthew 7:24-27
Message
A parable was told by Jesus while carrying out His earthly ministry, this parable was about two men, one who built his house on a strong foundation (the rock) and the other who built his house on a weak foundation (the sand), when the storms came the one with the strong foundation was safe while the one with a shabby foundation was in distress.
The foundation here is our salvation, the builders are Christians, the storm and winds refer to the trials, temptations, and problems that will come our way as Christians. Is your salvation built on a firm foundation of Christ or the foundation of the world? Do you stand strong only in good times and fall flat during tough times? John L. Mason says, “Trying times are no time to quit trying.” However, you need Jesus’ help.
A solid foundation is required to build a strong Christian life. Secure your foundation in Christ today so that you can build a glorious Christian life. Be a Christian who will not fall in the storms of life.
