We are God's building...!

I Corinthians 3:9-11 NKJV

For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you  are  God’s building. According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

† Shalom †......! Day #120. Do you know that you are God's building and He is the architect and you are the builder? Let us pray. Father,  You are the Architect of this building, therefore continue to direct us according to Your blueprint so that we would build up on a firm foundation and not the sand, build according to Your plan and not ours. Thank You, Jesus. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends, there's a parable in the bible regarding the wise builder and the foolish builder. The foolish builder built on sandy foundation Whereas the wise builder built on a solid foundation. Now how can I relate this verse with this parable? Friends, you must know that God is the Architect of your life and He has the blueprint of the building and we are the builders. Paul says that "For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you  are  God’s building." We are God's building, His temple and we are the workers. It means we must build this building according to His master plan, His blueprint,  His ways. Now back to the parable, both the builder have received  the same blueprint from God to build the same house but the foolish builder build up his house on sand and the storm came and destroyed the house because there no foundation. Sometimes we are like the foolish builder trying to build a house without a solid foundation.  The house the foolish builder built was looking good from the ground level to up, outside everything looks good, the painting, the garden all looked nice but from the ground level below there's no foundation. Then the building began to fall because of no solid foundation. Meaning to say that we are building our lives not on the solid foundation of His Word. We have great achievements, we look good on the outside but when storms come and hit, we fall easily because no foundation to hold on to.

But let each one take heed how he builds on it. For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. But a wise builder, what he or she does is, when they have received the blueprint from the Architect, from God, they began to inspect the ground, and then they will begin to dig deep maybe around 4 or 5 feet just to lay the foundation for the building, oh yes we need to dig deep into the things of God. And the they will begin to build the house from the laid foundation. Jesus is the firm foundation. In order for us to build this house, our lives, we must study the blueprint of God for our life and the dig deep into His word and lay Jesus Christ as the firm foundation of our life and be built on Him. This is what a wise builder will do. We must be very careful that we build our life's according to His blueprint and stick to His blueprint. Never go out of His plan and never build your life according to the world's philosophies and ways. The foolish builder build on the world's philosophies and ways and had a great fall. Have a blessed day...! God bless you!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
