Building Walls
Proverbs 25:28 “He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.”
T
hrough out history our forefathers knew the importance of building and maintaining walls around their cities. The importance was that these walls protected the cities from the enemy. If the walls were built to the max and maintained they were impassable, but if proper thought and care wasn’t given, the walls would start to deteriorate and corrode. The walls would become broken down and soon the enemy could easily get through them.
Our walk with God must have walls built around them. These walls are a product of the Word of God. If we are obedient to the Word we established these walls. To protect ourselves we must add to the walls. We must put boundaries in our lives, and through consistent prayer and reading of the Word, it helps us maintain them. When the enemy comes, and be sure he will, with these walls around you he won’t be able to gain access to your life. Build up those walls!

Communicate and Support
Hello everyone.
First I would like to say how awesome it has been having Family First Class on Sunday mornings.The turnout has been amazing. It just proves how committed our young married couples are to strengthen their homes.
This past Sunday we talked about keeping God at the center of our families. So many times we look at all of the things we could do better, like communicate more or be more supportive. These are simply just symptoms of a greater problem and that’s not having God as the center of our relationships. If we focus on having a God centered marriage, all of the other things will fall in place.
Family First Group, don’t forget about prayer on the 18th @ . This is a great opportunity to have a little uninterrupted prayer time. Thank you to Sis. Karon Wilson and her crew for watching our kids while we pray.

Faith in God’s Absolute
The one thing that never changes, grows old or goes out of style is the Word of God. It has never failed a man when put to the test. It cannot be altered and still be truth.
David said, “I was young and now I am old but I have never seen the righteous forsaken nor His seed begging for bread.” The one thing we can rely on is God’s Word.
It is the foundation of life. In this parable Luke conveys that Jesus spoke of a person who built their life on the teachings and precepts that Jesus gave. What we find is that everything that was anchored to the rock did not move.
In order to build a strong foundation it takes more than just a few bricks. Each one has to be precisely laid. What Jesus was saying was that everything we do in life, if it is rooted in the Word of God it will not fade nor grow old. The waters will move and move swiftly, the surrounding area may give way and do some exterior damage over time, but the reality of the matter is this: if we anchor our souls in the Word of God all the temporary things can fade away, but the eternal things that remain will be sure to stand with God’s favor and approval.
