A devotional reflection on Jesus’ teaching about building on the rock.
Jesus described two builders: one wise, one foolish. Both heard His words. Both built houses. But only one built on rock. The difference was not knowledge but obedience.
A Storm That Reveals the Foundation
Storms came to both houses. The wise builder’s house stood firm. The foolish builder’s house fell. Jesus taught that storms reveal what foundations hide.
A Call to Hear and Do
Hearing truth is not enough. Jesus calls His followers to practice His words. Obedience is the anchor that holds when life shakes.
Living on the Rock
Believers build on the rock when they trust Jesus, obey His teachings, and root their lives in His truth.
