Romans 6:11 – Be ALIVE TO GOD, alert to Him, through Jesus Christ our Lord!
TRUSTING THE SURE FOUNDATION Not only do we have to build on a sure foundation but we must also trust the foundation to carry us. When we build a wall upon a foundation, that wall relies fully on the foundation to hold it up and carry it. It does not try to carry itself or…
BUILDING ON A SURE FOUNDATION Building on a sure foundation brings lasting results. On a trip to England I visited a cathedral that was built 1000 years ago. It is a magnificent structure that dominates the entire landscape and had done so for centuries. This is how it is with our lives. If we build…
BUILDING ON SAND SPELLS DISASTER When we build on anything less than a sure foundation it has the potential to collapse and fall around us. This can be applied to life, marriage, business, careers and families. The Bible tells us to build on something that is not sure is foolish! Matthew 7:26 – 27 But…
We all need a sure foundation in our lives on which we can build. We need to know that what we are building is not in vain. God has provided a firm foundation for us on which to build our lives. If we hold to this foundation we will stand regardless of the winds and…

WAITING IS PART OF LIFE Have you ever noticed how much of our lives is taken up by waiting? We wait in line to be served. We wait for our children to get out of school. We wait for a new car we have ordered. We wait to move into a new house we have…
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 To EVERYTHING there is a SEASON, and a TIME for every matter or purpose under heaven: A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted, A time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down…
FRUITFUL IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE But you may say, ‘If you knew my circumstances you would understand why I cannot produce fruit.’ Perhaps you have a boss who is destroying you. Perhaps you have a spouse who is undermining you. Perhaps you have to live in a situation that makes fruitfulness difficult. But God wants us…
