THE FOUNDATION OF GOD STANDS SURE:  BUILD YOUR LIFE ON IT

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi
2 Timothy 2:19 (AMP) declares, “Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands [sure and unshaken]...”   
    This foundation is sealed with two truths: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.” Iniquity means lawlessness, moral perversion, and rebellion against God's standards (Hebrew: ‘avon). It is the crooked nature of sin, not merely sinful acts.
    God’s true foundation is Christ Himself. According to 1 Corinthians 3:11, “No other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” Every genuine ministry, marriage, or life must be built on this rock (Luke 6:48). Jesus said the wise man builds on the rock by hearing and doing His word. Storms of life will come, but that house will stand.
    The foundation also includes the apostles and prophets, “with Christ Jesus Himself as the chief cornerstone” (Ephesians 2:20). A true apostle teaches holiness and repentance, not motivational strategies. Unlike the modern trend that avoids confronting sin to attract crowds, biblical preaching demands separation from iniquity (2 Corinthians 6:17).
     Paul laid this foundation in the early Church, as seen in 1 Corinthians 3:10, warning others to be careful how they build upon it. Hebrews 6:1 calls us to move beyond the basics and lay again “the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.”
    Any marriage, ministry, or nation not built on Christ will fall. But if Christ is the foundation, it shall stand sure—forever.
  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and a repentant heart .
PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to overcome sin .
