How Firm a Foundation

Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.” (Mt 7:24‭-‬25)

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil,”
(Heb 6:19)

“Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.” (Eph 2:19‭-‬22)

How Firm a Foundation Lyrics: (Vs 1)

🎶How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in his excellent Word!
What more can he say than to you he has said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?🎵

Just a little reminder this morning… In Christ, we have a SURE foundation! We have a HOPE that is steadfast! The storms may blow in our lives, the trials may make us weary, and our failures may hinder our growth, but our foundation will NEVER move! He will keep us! We will not utterly fall, if we are built upon Him! Our hope is not dependent on who’s in power in Washington, what’s going on with the stock market, or what the economy is doing! Though sin may run rampant, and this world continues to descend into darkness, WE HAVE HOPE!

The world doesn’t have what we have! They are LOOKING for real hope! We must show them that there is a foundation in Christ that will keep them, if they would but trust in Him!

Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,”
(Phil 2:14‭-‬15)

      Our church is looking for a Pastor, and the guy that preached yesterday, preached on Christ as our foundation! It was good.

    This is beautiful, Paul.

    I hadn’t seen your posts in my WordPress reader for awhile, so I looked through the blogs I follow until I found yours. It’s good to see that you are still writing and sharing your wise and inspired 2 cents.

    The problem is that I am following too many blogs. It’s hard to keep up. But yours is one of my favorites, so I had to come and see. God bless!
