Feet Upon the Rock
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
28 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching,
29 because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.
Matthew 7:24-29
In today’s passage, Jesus tells us about two different foundations we can build our lives on: the sand or the rock. But what is the sand? And what is the rock? And how are we to apply Jesus’ words to our lives today? In this devotional, the Intentional Faith Devotional Team takes a look at Matthew 7:24-29.
