Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily - Isaiah 28:16.
Jesus is our firm foundation and He is our everlasting rock. For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ - 1 Corinthians 3:11. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock - Isaiah 26:4. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold - Psalm 18:2. For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God? - Psalm 18:31.
Nothing can shake us when we build our firm foundation on the truth of Jesus and do what He says. 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. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall - Matthew 7:24-27.
Let Christ be our firm foundation for our life. He will never fail us. He will be the firm foundation for their entire lives. He will give them all of the wisdom, knowledge and saving power they will ever need - Isaiah 33:6. As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving - Colossians 2:6-7.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for being our firm foundation. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
