After This Year, We're Still Standing

Listen as Princeton talks about the last sermon of the year. Let’s learn about the miracle of stability and taking courage of still standing despite all the challenges that we are facing. Episode Highlights: The miracle of stability of still standing despite the challenges this year is revolutionary. Matthew 7:24- "Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock." Sometimes it is not the house that you praise God for, but the foundation that the house sits on that you praise God for. Princeton realized that he is still standing, not because of his right decisions, but because of what he's built on. Jesus did not just come to save us, but he came to make us stable. Being stable deserves to be celebrated. The fruit of people's obedience to God is stability, the true measure of God's relationship with us. Stability is not the absence of a conflict but a presence of a foundation. Some people hear God but never choose God. They are always building something but not according to the right blueprint. The beginning of stability is when you see the word of God as safety, not slavery. Anything we do, simply because we must, will not easily be sustained. God is essential, if you only see Jesus but don't hear him, you never stay the course. If God is not the foundation, the events determine whether it is a good or a bad day. There is freedom, where there's a foundation. Companies that don't have core values/identity are always at the mercy of the latest trend. Foundation lets you reinvent without fear. God says, "I love you too much to build you high without first building you deep." God being absent is the process of going deep before going high. Foundation building looks like unseen sacrifices. Often, God softens our hearts when He wants to increase our strengths. The enemy has been tormenting us, making us look at someone else's house, not enjoying the stability of our own. Faith says “I trust the way I was built.” The lord is the strength of our lives. If you have with God, you have stability. 3 Key Points: Matthew Chapter 7 explains that the miracle of standing despite the storms that we have, is a miracle that deserves celebration. Jesus came not just to save us but to give stability as the fruit of our obedience with God. Building a foundation are unseen sacrifices, giving 100% in temporary circumstances.
