Manna for Your Morning

For this is contained in Scripture: “Behold, I lay in Zion a choice stone, a precious corner stone, and he who believes in Him will not be disappointed.” This precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for those who disbelieve, “The stone which the builders rejected, this became the very corner stone,” — 1 Peter 2:6-7 (NASB1995) So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God’s holy people. You are members of God’s family. Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. We are carefully joined together in him, becoming a holy temple for the Lord. Through him you Gentiles are also being made part of this dwelling where God lives by his Spirit. (Ephesians 2:19-22 NLT) Our Heavenly Father is the Master architect of our lives and King Yeshua is the chief cornerstone. Let us build our lives in Him.

This is what the Almighty LORD says: I am going to lay a rock in Zion, a rock that has been tested, a precious cornerstone, a solid foundation. Whoever believes in him will not worry. Isaiah 28:16 (GW)  No one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 3:11). He is our firm foundation. Christ Jesus himself is the chief cornerstone (Ephesians 2:20). He is the Rock of our salvation and there is no other. If we build our house on the solid foundation of the Rock, it will stand strong. Regardless of what storms come and beat against the house, it will not fall. Truly believe in the Lord ( faith ) and you will not worry ( fear ).
