For [Abraham] was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. — Hebrews 11:10
Where I live you have to dig down about four feet to put in footings if you want to build a house. If you don’t, freezing and thawing will damage your foundation, and your building will eventually crumble.
Without a good foundation, a building, a city, a life is vulnerable and insecure. It won’t stand up to storms.
And there is a storm. The enemy is hurling everything he can think of at the people of God. This wind is not subsiding; rather it is growing in intensity and in fury.
But the city of God has foundations. The storm will not prevail. In the end, the New Jerusalem comes down out of heaven like a bride beautifully adorned for her husband.
Abraham lived in a tent and, yes, his tent was fragile. But the storm could not consume him because his real home was the city with foundations. The enemy would like us to look at all that is fragile in our lives and cringe before the storm of his making. But I believe the Lord wants to remind us that our home is the city with foundations.
Be encouraged!
