THE FOUNDATION

The foundation of any given thing is the basis upon which something stands or is supported. In other words, the foundation is the body or ground upon which something is built or overlaid. Whether natural, physical or spiritual, the foundation of something or someone is vital to their strength, growth, and further development. For us christians, we must clearly articulate what it is that constitutes our firm, immovable foundation upon which we will build, in concert with God, the beautiful, and enduring edifice of our lives and destinies. Therefore, it is both crucial and essential for us as Christian believers, to first and foremost establish the truth upon which our faith stands before any further meaningful knowledge can be imparted that will help us build our lives successfully. Psalm 11:3(KJV) states: “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Moreover, Jesus speaking in the book of Luke 6:47-48(KJV) said, “Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock. And when the flood rose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock”.
