Matthew 7:24 (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<\/span>:<\/p>\n

So much of what Jesus taught was simple and straight to the point.<\/p>\n

Yes, He also taught some things that were so deep that even His disciples didn\u2019t understand them. But when He spoke, He spoke with absolute authority that assured people that He was who He said He was.<\/p>\n

The verse above is one of those that\u2019s direct and to the point!<\/p>\n

Despite its simplicity, it speaks volumes that we can all learn from.<\/p>\n

Take note of what Jesus said first; \u201cwhoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them<\/span>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hearing the things Jesus says isn\u2019t enough. He wants us to do them!<\/p>\n

And what did He say about those who actually do them? \u201cI will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock<\/span>\u201d.<\/p>\n

So, doing what Jesus says makes us wise! And it gives us a solid foundation to build our lives on.<\/p>\n

Then, in verse 25, Jesus said this:<\/p>\n

Matthew 7:25 (NKJV) 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

You see, rain, floods and winds represent the storms of life. And they are sure to come for each of us. Nobody is exempt.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter if you are a layperson, a prophet, a pastor, a teacher, a worship leader or anything else with a title. The storms will come for all of us. And most of us will experience many different seasons in our lives where storms of different kinds will pound upon us.<\/p>\n

But if we do what Jesus says to do, and not just hear it, we are wise and grounded, anchored on the Rock, giving us a defense that the storms will never be able to overcome or bring down.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s something the world can never offer us.<\/p>\n

So, what do we do? We hold fast to Jesus, our Rock and our Redeemer.<\/p>\n
