A Stable Structure

As we build our lives, we find ourselves eventually with more years behind us than in front of us. As I thought about the concept of our life as a building this morning, one thing stood out. The foundation of a building is very important. That is true in our spiritual lives as well. We need a good foundation to build upon.

Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

Our Father is building us into a temple individually and collectively in which He dwells. We should use scripture, all scripture, to help ascertain a strong foundation.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name Yahuah! Help us to be Your light in this world. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Restore unto your people hope. Help us renew our hearts and minds. Deliver us from the destroyer. Restore unto Your people all that has been taken or held back in any way, and multiply that a thousand times a thousand. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
