Today's Scripture:Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.Matthew 7:24, NIV.
When we have rock-solid
faith, we won’t be moved by what’s happening around us. We have peace in our
hearts and minds because our hope is in God. We have an attitude that says:
“I’m not moved by this medical report. I respect and honor people that are trying
to help me, but I know God can do what medical science cannot do. God made my
body.” “I’m not moved by the economy, the stock market, my job situation. I
know God supplies all of my needs. He promised He would prosper me even in a
recession.” “I’m not moved by how my children are acting. I’m not stressed out
because they’re off course, making poor choices. I know it’s only a matter of
time. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
Friend, that’s unshakable faith.
That’s building your house on a rock-solid foundation. When the storms of life
come, you won’t be moved. How do you stay rock solid? By meditating on the Word
of God and following His commands. It’s that simple. Instead of making your
circumstances the focus, you make God the focus and stand strong and secure in
Him! Today, make spending time with God your number one priority and learn to
stay rock solid in Him!
Prayer for Today:
Father, thank You for
Your Word which is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. I choose to hide
Your Word in my heart. I choose to meditate on your promises. I know that you
are faithful to Your Word and thank You for rock-solid faith as I keep my heart
and mind focused on you in Jesus’ name. Amen.
