In Luke 6 :48 we read, “and when the flood arose the streams beat vehemently against that house and could not shake it for it was founded on the rock”. What a promise to those whose foundations are secure. Jesus tells us for a fact that in this life we are going to face various floods. These floods might try to threaten to destroy us. But because we live in the fallen world, it is a fact that the health and financial and people misunderstanding us and job insecurities are going to take place in this life. Will we stay strong in those times depends on the foundations which we have and the foundation depends on our obedience to the Word of God. We should not just be the hearers of the word but being able to practically do it in our daily lives.
This week what was the practical obedience step you took on hearing the Word of God? We need an obedience quotient to assist our durability standards in the times of floods and vehement storms of our life.
May God enable us to come to Him, hear His word and definitely do accordingly, so that we can prove that our foundations are strong.
-Dr. John
