Foundation matters and determines perpetuity. – “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Psalm 11:3
If you do not know and are not living and praying and studying the Word to TRUST AND OBEY GOD MORE…. you have no foundation for what’s coming and will be washed away in the flood of judgment (Matthew 7:19-29). There’s no foundation but Christ (1 Corinthians 3:11).
“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord (now that He saved you), so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:6-10
Are you building the foundation against the flood waters of judgment coming on this nation? Those who sin away this hour of grace will reap destruction (Galatians 6:7-8; Hebrews 12:24-28). The vain thoughts of the flesh are that one can coast now and when the heavy storm comes he can quickly make up for wasted time. Not. Building ones house upon the rock of God’s Word happens daily (Matthew 7:21-29).
“Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” Psalms 127:1
TODAY, the wise scamper to the feet of the Savior – crying out to Him to have His way in their lives, to root and ground them in Him, lest they be toppled, uprooted. Cry out to Jesus now beloved. Hosea 10:12; James 4:6-10.
The “MANY false prophets” we are so often warned about in Scripture are known in that they don’t preach certain foundational, essential biblical doctrines and therefore are not grounding their audiences upon the only foundation that will be left standing through the judgment (Matthew 24:11; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 1 John 4:1). By intentionally doing this, they are in rebellion against the LORD they claim to be serving, they are hurting younger believers, and acting as if those foundational God-given truths don’t exist (Colossians 2:6-10; Hebrews 5:11-6:3, etc.). These are the vilest of self-serving snakes in our midst and they make up the largest part of the wolves currently feigning to be be pastors for Christ in this late hour. Never forget: It’s not only what they are preaching but what they are NOT preaching! How will YOU know what they are leaving out if you aren’t daily, personally studying, learning God’s Word for yourself? (2 Timothy 2:15) If you are listening to a pastor who isn’t regularly preaching the final authority of God’s Word and establishing YOU in the daily study of it, you are willingly being misled. False leaders are known for refusing to regularly preach the essential biblical doctrines of the Christian faith such as repentance, holiness, Christology (the study of Christ), the cross, and hell. Run!
The Bible has all of life’s answers for every situation and person from God (2 Peter 1:3-4). Some among us are not digging for and learning those truths and precious gems and have therefore allowed false teachers to lead them into the land of lukewarmness (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12; Revelation 3:15-16). Their lives are built on a sinking sand foundation (Matthew 7:19-29).
Frauds are known in that they don’t preach the Word to establish foundation!
Those with No Foundation with Fall
“See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. 27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: 29 For our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:25-29
TODAY, the wise scamper to the feet of the Savior – crying out to Him to have His way in their lives, to root and ground them in Him, lest they be toppled, uprooted. Cry out to Jesus now beloved. Hosea 10:12; James 4:6-10.
The Holy Ghost inspired writer of Hebrews chides, rebukes, admonishes believers who should be teaching God’s Word and yet were in need of learning the elemental, foundation doctrines of the Christian faith! The context is that they were being severely warned about apostasy – backsliding, falling away!
“Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. 1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.” Hebrews 5:11-6:2
Does the Bible Speak of Foundation, Foundations?
The foundation of God is laid in our own lives when we study and adhere to the original Gospel of Christ – and it’s laid in the lives of sound and solid as we dispense only the original Gospel of Jesus to others. There is no other foundation against the judgment to come!
“For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 3:11
“Nevertheless the FOUNDATION of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” 2 Timothy 2:19
“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Psalms 11:3
How important is foundation to God?
The words “foundation” and “foundations” appear a total of 86 times in Scripture.
What did Jesus Teach about Foundation?
Building Your House on the Rock
Notice here below how Jesus speaks of hearing and obeying His Word as the only way for His foundation and not a sinking sand foundation to be laid in our lives.
“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.” Matthew 7:24-27
What is the foundation of your life? Are you a humble, obedient servant? Are you digging deep in repentance and obedience so “the foundation of God” is being built in your life? Are you crying out to the LORD, digging deep to unearth and remove all from your life that does not belong to God?
“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? 47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: 48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. 49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.” Luke 6:46-49
The Scriptures says “ye are God’s building” and “ye are the temple of God.” (1 Corinthians 3:9, 16) And, we know that no building can be erected without first laying the foundation – which is Christ! Christ in salvation and ongoing abiding relationship alone assures that His sure foundation is being built in our lives.
“And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” 1 Corinthians 10:4
The LORD has a lot to say about foundation. Does foundation matter to you? It should. Do you understand the significance and eternal nature of having our LORD’s foundation build in your personal life? The foundation of your life determines your future eternal destination and how you will fare when persecution and “eternal judgment” comes – whether you will stand or fall (1 Peter 5:10).
AS you read all the way through God’s Word for yourself you will see a very different picture than what the modern church paints in this prophesied apostate era – as we eagerly anticipate the return of Jesus. ….. That’s the problem: So very many among us got saved and yet have not been grounded in the Word, the heart of God via their own personal daily study of His Word! Therefore they believe things they were taught that are untrue – and will never know it unless they count the Savior important enough to study His Word for themselves as He commanded us to do (John 5:39-40; 2 Timothy 2:15).
“The simplicity that is in Christ,” and the love and knowledge of His Word, is lost in the commercialized modern church busine$$ gatherings (2 Corinthians 11:3).
Is it not Satan, the “serpent” who is “beguiling” with “subtilty” the prey of the modern deceivers we’ve been warned about by Christ and His holy apostles?
“But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 11:3
Obeying God with Our Resources
One of the ways we lay a foundation against, in light of the judgment coming, is with our giving.
“Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; 18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.” 1 Timothy 6:17-19
In the biblical economy, all who are “rich in this world” are simply those who have more than what they need for the day.
The Jeremiah 1:10 Foundation
Jeremiah 1:10 holds powerful divine truth. Grab it saints! GOD wants to first DESTROY the lies you’ve believed so that He can then begin to BUILD and PLANT His kingdom truth, His foundation in your life! Yet, He will not do so if you will not seek His face, admitting you’ve been misled, you’ve believed lies instead of His Word due to your own refusal to seek Him. The sin of self-idolatry. You must choose to become correctable (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Below in this paramount divine revelation of the workings of our God, can you find the 6 things God does to build His kingdom in people?
“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10
Flash point: It’s real simple: If a leader is not teaching you to get into, to memorize, and to daily meditate on God’s Word for yourself, it’s because he’s not doing so himself – and he wants you dependent on his ministry and not Christ. Wolf! Run.
“Search the scriptures daily.” (Acts 17:10-11)
The fact that tens of millions of American “Christians” “go to church” on Sundays and yet still have no clue as to the cardinal components of the original Gospel clearly tells us that the foundation is not laid and not being laid – even though they’ve spent countless hours and dollars involved in today’s apostate local churches.
You want the Word? Prove it to the LORD by opening and studying His Word – daily, first thing every morning.
Many foolishly run around looking for “a word” instead of studying God’s written Word which is – THE WORD. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)
Those who do not study will fall away, will be ashamed, and will not be able to rightly divide divine truth.
IF you are still not in God’s Word daily, you are still a babe or fallen away (Hebrews 5:11-14; Luke 8:13). It simply does not matter how many years you claim you’ve been saved nor what your involvement in a “church.”
God’s Word is the only foundation of truth and to build your life on. With no exception, all who are truly known of God are seeking out, searching, learning, and living out the Word of the God who saved them from their sins and for His eternal glory (John 8:47). Jesu
s says these are the only ones who are “of God.” Memorize John 8:47.
WHEN you’re in THE WORD for yourself, you are un-impressed with mere messengers because your identity is Christ who is your all in all! (1 Corinthians 2:1-5)
SHOW God you mean business by getting up early to seek His face DAILY. Talk is cheap.
“Let thine heart retain my words.” Proverbs 4:4
Read Psalm 1 and 92.
Crisis Management Mode vs Perpetually Dwelling in His Word
Perpetual Blessings require perpetual fellowship…..
“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11
Continually seeking the LORD guarantees that you remain full of His strength, His joy, His divine peace.
Running to the LORD continually is essential. Instead of praying and the reading of God’s Word being simply a crisis management reaction, why not make it our meat, our lifestyle – that which we do daily, diligently, and fervently?
“The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” Proverbs 18:10
If you are going to established in divine peace, if you are going to be “safe”, you must run to and remain grounded at the feet of Christ!
Get filled, stay full, keep your lamp overflowing (Matthew 25:1-13).

Sin is Rooted in the Hearts of Men [podcast]

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
Jesus taught us that man’s sin comes out of his “desperately wicked” heart (Jeremiah 17:9).
“And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:20-23
Mankind’s core dilemma is sin (Romans 1-3). Jesus Christ came and died to “save his people from their sins,“ to “taketh away the sin of the world,“ and not to merely deal with fallen man on a surface level as on a mental level (Matthew 1:21; John 1:29). God doesn’t band aid broken things, He heals and makes them whole to the root because the root determines the fruit (Matthew 12:33; Luke 4:18, etc.). Christ’s salvation is perfect. Evil is in our hearts and proceeds forth from that wicked heart until Christ regenerates us (Genesis 6:5, 12; Jeremiah 17:9; John 3:3, 7; Titus 3:5-7). This is why the sinner must of divine necessity be born again, must be made completely new “by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost” (Titus 3:5-7). Then and not before then, the born again saint of Christ is made a “a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God” (2 Corinthians 5:17-18).
The Truth about Fallen Mankind – That Includes You!
“And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5
“And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.” Genesis 6:12
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. … O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Romans 7:18, 24
Is Romans 7 Before or After Paul’s Salvation?
Don’t trust yourself, trust God and deny self! “He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered” (Proverbs 26:28).
Only Satan and his children live by the diabolical edict of “be true to yourself.” Knowing how wretched they are of themselves, without Christ, those who are known of God live by “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” (Proverbs 3:5-6)
People don’t have a “mental health” problem, they have a SIN problem and sin is what gives way, gives full access to Satan!
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:” Hebrews 12:14
“The state of continual sanctification, that life of purity and detachment from the world and all it’s lusts, without which detachment and sanctity no man shall see the Lord-shall never enjoy His presence in the world of blessedness. To see God, in the Hebrew phrase, is to enjoy Him; and without holiness of heart and life this is impossible. No soul can be fit for heaven that has not suitable dispositions for the place.” Adam Clark’s commentary on Holiness. Hebrews 12:14
YOUR PRAYER FOR A PURE HEART: Holy Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus, desiring to be pure in heart so that I may see, enjoy, and be with You. Help me please dear LORD. Purify my heart and life of all wicked imaginations and iniquity that defile me in Your holy eyes. Please purify and cleanse me LORD and I know You require me to purify myself and to obey You. In Jesus’ name, please forgive all my sins by Thy precious blood dear LORD Jesus. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“Be Strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus” – 2 Timothy Chapter 2 [podcast]

A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
A Workman Approved by God
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
