Lifepaths Support System

We all know that Jesus preached and taught on many occasions during his three and half years ministry.

However, there is one sermon he taught on the mount which is recorded in three chapters of the gospel of Matthew (from chapter 5 to Chapter 7).

Allow me today to just talk about the conclusion of this long sermon which is recorded in Matthew 7:24-27 - the famous story of the wise and the foolish builders. I will not say much about it. We all know the story.

My heart today goes to those Christians who are neither wise nor foolish builders. They know the benefit of listening to God's word and doing it but they have lived their all lives under the shadows of people who listen to and practice the word of God.

Are you such a one? Maybe your parents are devoted Christians and their commitment to Christ and his word sustains you. Maybe you belong to a church where the leader is a devoted follower of Christ and his or her prayers and commitment to Christ rubs on you too.

There are also some whose parents and grandparents prayed and walked with God and this is what is making them enjoy God's hand on their lives.

If you are such a one, I am here to remind you that, though the house you are in is built on the rock, it is not yours. In this case the foolish builder is better than you. Atleast he knows the importance of building your own house. One day he will learn to put God's word into practice and his house will not fall.

Make up your mind beloved and begin building on the rock for yourself. You need to OWN that house on the rock. Stop enjoying borrowed strong houses. Stop moving from one church to the other in search of houses on the rock. Make up your mind and build yours. Atleast your children and their children will have shelter and will also learn the importance of building on the rock. Not ama yes papa; you are right papa; go deeper papa! When are you going to listen from God on your own?
