Inspire Within Devotion


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. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat 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. 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

Encouragement

We must have a foundation build on Christ and put into practice what Christ says. A foundation on the rock is a relationship with Christ and depends on Him for all things. A foundation on the sand is a life built on superficial and meaningless things—anything other than a relationship with Christ. The storms of life bring out the difference between each foundation. Let us be in a relationship with the Lord, put into practice what He says, and depend on Him in all seasons of our life.

Reflection

Is Christ the foundation of your life? Are you living obediently to His Word? 

Quote

"We must have a foundation build on Christ and put into practice what Christ says."
