Matthew 7:24-25 (NKJV) 24 \u201cTherefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We often hear this verse quoted because it refers to building on the rock, not on sand or other easily-destroyed foundations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Today, let\u2019s look at this from the opposite angle and see what we can glean from it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Building on a strong foundation is important. But why is that?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Why is it so important that we have a strong foundation under us?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Because we will face storms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Look at what Jesus said as He spoke to the masses: the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, that tells us beyond a doubt that storms will come.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus didn\u2019t tell us this to scare us, but to warn us so that we could be wise in our choices and decisions and prepare for the storms of life by building on the one true foundation; God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Storms do<\/em> come. It\u2019s a fact of life that we will never be able to change. Are we prepared for them?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That\u2019s the question we need to be asking ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Let us heed His advice and build on the Rock, so we will not be easily tossed about or devastated when the storms do come.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
