It Is All About The Foundation

July 11, 2025

KEY FROM GOD’S WORD:

Psalm 11:3
If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?

 

THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORD:

 

     Have you ever seen a structure, such as a grass hut or maybe a tent, that has been built on no real foundation, or a very weak foundation? It might last on a nice day when the sun is shining and there is just a gentle breeze in the air. However, let the hard winds blow or the storms come raging, and what happens to the structure? We all know it collapses like a pile of toothpicks.

 

     Our lives are so much the same. If the foundation of our life is simply built on our wishes, desires, or something of our own making, it might last while the day seems bright, and no problems are around. Nevertheless, let the storm clouds of anger and hostility come, the winds of a broken home or health concerns, or the extreme heat of financial problems, and what happens? The life we built of our own design will crumble much like a structure made of toothpicks.

 

     How can we prevent this collapse of our lives from happening? It is by building our lives on the foundation of God’s Holy Word. My friend, that foundation never changes, never shifts, never crumbles, and never falls.

 

CARRYING THAT THOUGHT THROUGH THE DAY:

 

     A firm foundation is built on Jesus Christ, our Lord. Anchor your life in the Rock and you will never have to fear the storms.

 

How have you anchored your life to the Rock that is Jesus?

 

IF YOU ARE JOURNALING:

Ask yourself, what are MY THOUGHTS concerning this Passage and today’s Devotion?

 

Do I find within this reading a CHALLENGE for my life?

 

What are one or two things I WILL DO today or this week to accept that CHALLENGE?
