Foundation That Endures All
“For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
(1 Cor. 3:11)
“Foundation” basically means “an underlying natural or prepared base or support; especially, the masonry substructure of a building; or a body or ground upon which something is built up or overlaid.” In scriptural terms, it refers to the base upon which ones entire life is sustained. So, it is vital to ask yourself; what is the foundation of your life? The answer must refer to something other than your efforts or self-help, because you are not the originator of your life; and you are never in absolute control of the circumstances of your life, are you?
What then is the foundation of your life? Do you build your life on the heathen gods and altars your father and his ancestors served? Yes, you cannot help the foundation on which you were born but God allows you the direct responsibility to choose the foundation on which to build up your life; it is an individual responsibility. The pressures of life compel us to examine our foundation. To what do you resort when you feel this pressure? That tells the foundation you uphold. Some seek divination in some ways or the other. Some depend on self efforts. Obedience to the word of God is the surest foundation upon which you can build your life.
Liberation Thought: Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, Let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity

Prayer:
In the name of Jesus, I reject every foundation that seeks to control my destiny; I stand firm on the foundation of Jesus Christ laid before the world began.
I dissociate myself by fire from every foundation that retards my progress in Jesus mighty name.
Amen, thank you Jesus.
