Building the Spiritual House

Show Indonesian Version

Luke 6:48b

And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.

 

Bible Reading for a Year [bible]psalm118[/bible]; [bible]icori6[/bible]; [bible]0ruth3-4[/bible]

 

The innocent are those who obey the Lord and give their attention to His words. These people are His beloved. On the contrary, God is so disappointed when His children refuse to do His will and merely talk about His law.

There are two kinds of building physically similar. But the difference of their quality is known when they are shaken. A building with firm foundation won’t be shaky even though it is attacked by the waters and the flood. A building built over a ground without the firm foundation easily collapses when storm, wind, and flood come.

Nowadays we need to build our own ‘spiritual house’: to build our faith, our obedience, our perseverance, our faithfulness, and so on. The house must be built on the Lord Jesus the firm foundation. The quality of every ‘spiritual house’ will be seen while the storm of troubles comes and attacks.
