Cornerstone- Hillsong

We all know the story of the wise man and the foolish man… one built his house on the sand, the other on the solid rock. When the floods came, the foolish man’s house was washed away. The wise man’s house stood firm.
When we place our trust on Christ Jesus, He becomes the cornerstone and solid rock in our lives.
Psalm 69: 6-8 reads: He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.
“On Christ the solid rock, I stand, all other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand.”
Ephesians 2:19-22 says: Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
On John Piper’s website, desiringgod.org, he says this: God's great purposes for the building of his church, including Bethlehem, often come through seasons of rejection, but in the end he remains triumphant and none of us can bring his purpose to ruin. If we reject his way, we cannot destroy his plan. C.S. Lewis said once: "We all serve God inevitably, but it makes a great difference whether you serve like Judas or serve like John."1 In the end God is triumphant in our belief and our unbelief. He is triumphant in our obedience and our disobedience. Human beings, whether good or evil, rejecting or accepting, believing or unbelieving, cannot thwart the ultimate purposes of God. "The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner."
“Christ alone; cornerstone. Weak made strong; in the Saviour's love, Through the storm, He is Lord… Lord of all.”
When it comes to our lives, as Christians, we should be focused on Christ... the cornerstone of our faith... the solid rock that carries us in our times of weakness. Put your trust in the cornerstone that will never fail!
It's funny, but after I posted this blog very early this morning... on the drive back from the airport I heard a song that is going to be featured during the next 31 days... and I realized that this challenge for me has become about worship... I hope these songs will bless you as they have blessed my life and made me realize that you can worship anytime and anywhere... there is never a bad time to give our worship to God!
Have a great Monday!
