Ephesians 3:20 - “Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.” (NLT)
Today, Jesus lays the foundation for a successful and blessed life.
Matthew 5:3–12, NIV “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those
who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those
who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown
mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called
children of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you
because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they
persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
Matthew 7:24–27, NIV “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like
a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and
beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears
these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The
rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great
crash.”
Amos 7:7–9, NLT Then he showed me another vision. I saw the Lord standing beside a wall that had been built
using a plumb line. He was using a plumb line to see if it was still straight. And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what
do you see?” I answered, “A plumb line.” And the Lord replied, “I will test my people with this plumb line. I will
no longer ignore all their sins. The pagan shrines of your ancestors will be ruined, and the temples of Israel will
be destroyed; I will bring the dynasty of King Jeroboam to a sudden end.”
Isaiah 28:17, NLT “I will test you with the measuring line of justice and the plumb line of righteousness.”
There is one set of boundaries for a relationship to be built on.
If you stay committed to the line that God has drawn, then you will be blessed, you will be protected, and you will be led by Him. But, if you step off the line, you are breaking the ties of the relationship and God will not protect you, He will not guide you, and He will not bless you.
The line represents us staying in alignment with God and
others.
#1 Hold tight to your commitment to God.
#2 Hold tight to your commitment to others.
