Jesus is life’s foundation stone. He is a foundation on which you can build your life. “For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ” (I Corinthians 3:11). In Christ we can build solid on what is solid. Satan would have you build on unstable rubble. Is Jesus what you have built your life on? If you act on Jesus’ teachings then your life will not be washed away when the storms hit.
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. “And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. “The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.” Matthew 7:24-27 (NASB)
