Build on the Rock

2 Comments

Matthew 7:24–27, “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: 25 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. 26 “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: 27 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

The following video illustrates Matthew 7:24-27 rather well. I’m drawn to the Picasso influence, but appreciate most the message presented and the way God vividly warns us of the everlasting consequences of our choices. May we choose to obey the Lord because we know the Lord.

Sign-Spinner

Whatever you do, Solomon said, do it with all your might!

Ecclesiastes 9:10a (NIV) “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might…” Or as the New Living Translation puts it, Ecclesiastes 9:10a (NLT) “Whatever you do, do well.”

If this young man is willing to enthusaistically spin signs for his employer, or even for his own self interest, we Christians should be willing to work obediently, sincerely, and enthusiastically for Christ, for one day we will give an account – to Him! (See Colossians 3:22-4:1 Study).
