{{{SOMETIMES THE LORD HAS TO TEAR THINGS/PEOPLE DOWN, IN ORDER TO BUILD THEM BACK UP PROPERLY!}}} Whether that be an INDIVIDUAL, a MARRIAGE/FAMILY, BUSINESS, CHURCH or whatever! Why? Because when WE BUILD upon our OWN foundation instead of the LORD'S (do things in our own strength and timing, according to OUR will and not God's) , we realize that, that foundation is VERY ROCKY (unstable)! There's NO WAY it could ever withstand the STORMS OF LIFE! As soon as a heavy STORM (difficulties) arrive, our ENTIRE foundation begins to CRUMBLE! But when we build upon the ROCK (Jesus) we can rest assured, that NO MATTER WHAT STORMS MAY COME, that which we have built will be able to WITHSTAND THE TESTS OF TIME-and even become STRONGER! Be careful what you are BUILDING UPON, my friends! Seek God in ALL things! Selah!
{Psalm 127:1}-EXCEPT THE LORD BUILDS THE HOUSE, THEY LABOR IN VAIN WHO BUILD IT; except the LORD keeps the city, the watchman wakes but in vain.
{Matthew 7:24-27}- So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who BUILT HIS HOUSE UPON THE ROCK. 25 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; YET IT DID NOT FALL, BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN FOUNDED ON THE ROCK. 26 And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand. 27 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell--and great and complete was the fall of it.
