Hearing And Doing

HEARING AND DOING< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Matthew 7:24-29

 

It is clear in the parable of the two builders that not just the wise can build a house but the foolish can also build. Every one can build, but not all the buildings are the same. In all that you are building, do you know for certain if the flood comes your way will your building stand and not fall? Is your building founded on the word of the Almighty God? The differences in all kinds of building are found in where they are built and that will determine how they will stand when the flood comes. Jesus said, ÒTherefore, whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.Ó (Matthew 7:24-25) That is a clear and a direct warning that needs no interpreter for understanding to have its way in the life of every one that builds, everyone that is building or that will build. If there is anything you are building and you want it to be different from every other kind of building, seek the Word and get the Word committed. The Word will not let your building be a building that can be beaten and get swept away when the rain and flood comes down. If you have built by strength or determination, if you are building by strength or determination or you have a plan to build by your strength or determination, it will not stand. The Word that you have received, the one that you are receiving, and the Word that you will be receiving will make your building stand in times of rain that sweeps. Will you begin to seek the Word for His intervention in what you have built, what you are building or what you will you be building? He is a faithful God; he meant what He said He would do. Letting the Word of God take over is a demonstration of having surrendered all unto the Word of God. It is good to hear what the Word has to say. However, it is as bad as not hearing the Word, when in the hearing, there is no doing. If you have been positioned where you can hear the word or you are have been hearing for long, it will not count except if you are doing what you have heard. Hearing and doing is what will give the mark of preservation and deliverance.
