Build Your Life on the Unshakeable Rock!
Welcome, Faith Force Wise Builders! Today, we’re learning the most important construction lesson ever – how to build your life on a foundation that can never be shaken, as shared in Matthew 7:24-25.
Verse Of The Day:
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." (Matthew 7:24-25)

Have you ever built a sandcastle and watched the waves wash it away? Jesus teaches us about two very different types of builders and foundations!
Jesus says the wise builder “hears these words of mine and puts them into practice” – that’s the secret! It’s not enough to just hear Jesus’ teachings; we have to actually DO them. When we obey what Jesus teaches about loving others, forgiving, helping the needy, and following God, we’re building our life “on the rock.”
When storms come (and they will!), “The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.” Problems, disappointments, and challenges will test our foundation, but when our life is built on obeying Jesus’ words, nothing can knock us down! We become storm-proof because our foundation is the unshakeable rock of Jesus’ teachings!
Foundation Strength Test Platform:
Create two foundation platforms using cardboard – cover one with sand and the other with small rocks or pebbles. Build identical small houses (using cardboard boxes or blocks) on each foundation. Test your foundations by gently shaking them, sprinkling water on them, or blowing on them with a fan. Watch how the rock foundation house stays strong while the sand foundation house wobbles or falls! Write “Hearing Jesus’ Words” on one side and “Doing Jesus’ Words” on the other side of your rock foundation. This shows you the difference between a life built on Jesus’ solid rock versus shifting sand!
Time For A Prayer:
Dear Jesus, help us be wise builders who hear Your words AND put them into practice! When we're tempted to just listen to Your teachings without obeying them, remind us that real strength comes from doing what You say. Help us build our lives on the solid rock of Your words so that when storms come, we won't fall. Make us unshakeable! Amen.
Keep building on the solid rock, Faith Force Wise Builders! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that everyone who hears Jesus’ words and puts them into practice builds an unshakeable life on the rock!
