Is Christ Your Firm Foundation?

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Cody’s song “Firm Foundation (He won’t)” is (to me) an anthem for a child of God. Is Christ your Firm Foundation?

Remember, Jesus said that the person who builds on the Solid Rock has nothing to worry about…whether rain or shine.

The main reason why Christ should be your Foundation is that He Loves You unconditionally. He died for you, and He is interceding for you.
Above all, He is coming again for you. You are His purpose.

Cody highlighted God’s Faithfulness through Christ Jesus. Jesus never fails. Think about this: what has Jesus got to gain from withholding anything from you? The Scriptures say that “for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him” (Colossians 1:16, NLT).

Also in John 1:3 (NLT), God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.

Let me put it kindly: Jesus said, “You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father” (John 14:13, NLT)

In the human context, what can’t Elon Musk, President Trump, or President Xi afford for their children?
There is enough for you. Amen.

God never fails.  He is committed to His Word. He is consistent through every generation. And He is not ready to prototype failure in our generation. There is no precedence, and there will never be. It is not in His Nature to fail, just as there is no darkness in Him.

Today, be happy that you have Him, and also be happy that you are His. Continue to build your life around/on Jesus because He won’t fail you. Let Him be your firm foundation.

‘“Whoever hears these teachings of mine and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock. It rained hard, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house. But it did not fall because it was built on rock. ‘ (Matthew 7:24-25, ERV)

ASK BIG THIS EASTER

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else?

(Romans 8:32, NLT)

God made all things possible with Jesus Christ. He gave you His Best when you least deserved. The scripture says that God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8. You did not ask for it but He did it anyway.

Now you are His son/daughter and the issue of sin has been dealt with. As you stand before His throne, He welcomes and adores you because He gave His only Son to set you free from the bondage of Satan. He smiles and waits for you to ask for all you need to be fruitful.
A lot of times we spend hours murmuring about trivial things when He expects us to look at the broader picture of Life and the richness of His glory. Look at it this way; someone led you to Elon Musk and all you could talk about was how you think or feel life has not been fair to you. You could spend hours talking about the pains, unfair treatments, disappointments, etc. But does he care about that? Until you make your request(s), he may not know what you want from him and that would be a missed opportunity.

With God, unlike Elon who may have to guess what you wanted, He knows what you want but He wants you to solely trust Him and follow His principle; Ask and it shall be given. He is ready when you are ready. And there could not have been a better time to ASK than Easter when we remember His generosity towards mankind. Be encouraged to make the bold request and watch what He does in Jesus’ Name. God Bless You and Happy Easter.

God Is Able

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us

(Ephesians 3:20, AMP)

Ephesians 3:20 says that God is able to do…more than we dare ask or think. This means that the limits you have set for yourself are not from God. Any limit you see is not with God. God is able.

If you can think it, God is able. If you can imagine it, God is able. If you can make the move forward, his support is readily available.

In this year, what do you want to do? How far do you want to go? Everything lies with you. God is able.

Permit the Holy Spirit to change your heart, to change your thoughts so that you can see from God’s viewpoint and know that there is no limit with God. This will shape the way you pray and/or ask from God. He will also help you to see God in the realm of possibilities. Always remember that God is able.
