Isaiah 28:9–16

A Sure Foundaton

From single-dwelling homes to skyscrapers, the foundation is a key part of every structure. In order for a foundation to give the right support, its design and composition must be congruent with the type of bedrock on which it rests and environmental forces the building might be subjected to, such as earthquakes or hurricanes.

More important than a building’s foundation is that of our faith. Just as surely as buildings will encounter the forces of nature, so will our faith be assaulted by Satan. But our loving Heavenly Father has provided us with a foundation that will withstand all the fiery darts of the enemy of our soul.

See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation, the one who trusts will never be dismayed (Isaiah 28:16).

This sure foundation is not made of concrete. Our foundation is Jesus Christ (1 Peter 2:4). When one places his trust in Jesus as Savior, Shepherd, Counselor, Healer, and King of kings and Lord of lords, he rests upon a sure foundation that shall not be moved.

Speak the Truth Even If Your Voice Shakes

“The word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” “Alas, Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the LORD said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the LORD. Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:4-9
