Except The Lord Builds The House
Psalm 127
No Money! No Experience! Laboring In Vain!
Make sure that the Lord is the core of your foundation. He is Success.....apart from Him you can do nothing (John 15: 5). I know everyone is concerned about the state of the economy and your
personal state of economy as we should be, so continue to pray and prepare. The economy will one
day collapse, but when the Lord builds the house, it shall stand forever.
Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on a 'rock' (Jesus Christ). The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds
blew against that house; yet it did not 'fall', because it had 'its foundation on the rock.
But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish
man who built his house on 'sand' (no substance). The rain came down, the streams rose, and the
winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash. Matthew 7: 24-27 NIV
(biblegateway.com).
Are you working long hours? Don't have a job? Complaining and murmuring? Do you feel like
you're not being creative?, You are ineffective or worthless? Have you checked your attitudes and
beliefs lately? What are you teaching your children? Maybe, you refuse to work for nothing.
Stop trying to do what you are doing without God's wisdom. It's vain (fruitless and it lacks substance
and worth) and it is bread of sorrows ( no harmony, balance, no rest, worry, council of the world,
deception etc.).
It is by His grace and mercy that we are not consumed (Lamentations 3: 22-23). Inspect the
progress of your natural, individual, and spiritual house.
Refresh, Repair, and Receive Instructions From God for you, your family and vision.
Deliberately, spend time with the Lord. Pray, worship, meditate, count your blessings and read
The Word. Stay away from anything and anyone that may distract you. The rat race or any other
kind of race is striving ( a strain, struggle, or toiling).
You have everything inside of you to create a wonderful atmosphere, an awesome holiday
season (in the midst of chaos, with or without a job/money). If you have children, there is so
much to teach them....they are a blessing.
Build a sure foundation in Jesus Christ. He is our Healer, Provider, Way maker, Source, Peace,
Joy, and so much more.
First things First! (Spend time with the Lord) and Look for creative ways to be a blessing and give.
Please pray for the 'Philippines' , physically help out in a way that you can (any sacrifices will be
appreciated for them and anyone you choose to help in your local area) and donate.
If you be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land. Isaiah 1: 19
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. Proverbs 3: 5-6
Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established; and by knowledge
shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches. Proverbs 24: 3-4
Get some rest and the Peace of God be upon you!
If you don't know the Lord, accept Him today!
