THE RIGHT FOUNDATION


Matthew 7:24-27 (NLT)
24 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. 26 But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. 27 When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

 

COMMENT
There is no other foundation other than Jesus! He is a sure foundation that keeps us strong when challenges come our way. In life we all face difficulties and unexpected challenges and it’s in those times that we find out if our lives are truely built on Jesus. Many people choose to wait and build during difficult times but why wait? Jesus is saying build now, today, so that when the storms come your foundation is strong, ready for anything that comes your way!

Building is a purposeful activity, things don’t build themselves. Make no mistake, we are all building something, consciously or unconsciously. According to this scripture, wise people listen to the teaching of Jesus and follow it. Our foundation isn’t just based on information, it’s based on our application. Through this Boot Camp journey you are going to take a closer look at the many things that Jesus said while he was on earth. It’s our prayer that you will not just listen to his words but that you will apply them to your life and allow Him to change and mould you.

He is a sure foundation! Building your life on Jesus leads to life!
