The House
Proverbs 14:11
The house of the wicked shall be overthrown:
but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish,
The disaster in Haiti that took place yesterday should speak loudly to all of us - just 700 miles south of Florida - a major earthquake destroyed much of the city of Port-A-Prince -this destruction happened in a matter of minutes - all our worldly riches can be gone in seconds - if our trust is in the things of this world - we will be empty and life will become meaningless - but if we would trust in the LORD with all our heart - then and only then will the peace come that passes all understanding - today's verse talks about two houses - one is the house of the wicked - the other of the righteous in Christ -
the wicked home, while seeming thriving now, will one day be brought to ruin - however the house of the righteous in Christ is being built up - even if it looks like it's falling apart - in the end - the righteous of Christ will stand while those who reject Christ and His grace will be left with nothing at all - which life would you rather have - let's cleave to Christ - He is our only hope - no matter what happens this side of heaven - God has a plan - and His plan is always the best plan! Let's build our house on the Rock and not the lose sand of this fallen world - sometimes we become blind by the things of the world and the voice of the enemy - we must acknowledge this - and move on past it - ask Jesus to open our eyes to what really is in our heart of hearts - does this world drive you or does God's Holy Spirit? Upon what have you built your house upon?
Let's allow Christ to rebuild our lives - sometimes this requires our lives to be broken down for Christ to build it back on the sure and true foundation of Jesus Christ!
