“FOUNDATION”
BY PASTOR YEMISI BAMGBOSE
Matthew 7:24-28
Therefore, whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise
man, which built his house on a rock. (Matthew7:24)
Jesus parable was centred on the wise and the foolish builders, one built his house on the
rock, right foundation and the other on sand, the wrong foundation.
They were both builders who chose different materials to build.
They each had a different outcome of events.
Jesus said, whosoever hears these sayings of mine and does them will be liken to a wise man
building his house on a rock.
By implication, it’s not everyone that has the ability to hear what Jesus is saying to us this year.
It is also worth knowing that not everyone that hears His sayings will do what He says.
God gives listening ear and the willingness to do what He says depending on the individual.
To be considered wise by heaven is to hear and do what He says to be done.
Such a person is likened to a man building his house on a rock.
The house in this story is our life.
A wise man is expected to take heed to the warning instructions from the Master and do as
he is told.
If a skipper of the huge ship refuses to listen to the instructions from the skipper of the light
house, it’s possible that his boat will capsize because he failed to take heed to the warnings.
Anyone considered wise in the record of heaven are those who have ability to hear what God
is saying and willingness to do as commanded.
Because they heard and obeyed His instructions, they will be protected when the flood and
storms of life come as they do sometimes without warning.
Psalm 119: 130 says the entrance of thy words gives light, it gives understanding unto the simple.
Every child of God must have understanding of His Word and it’s His Words that makes us
wise.
Psalm 119:133
Your steps can only be ordered by His Word so that iniquity will not have dominion over you.
On the other side, Jesus said of those who hear His words and do not do them, they shall be
likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand.
Brethren, what foundation are you going to build upon this year?
Jesus gave examples of two types of foundations:
Rock or Sand.
One is solid, and the other is porous
One is stable, and the other is unstable.
One will stand the test of time while the other will crumble at the slightest pressure.
One can stand storms, the other will collapse at the first appearance of rain.
One structure is solid and firm, the other structure is weak and feeble.
One can withstand all weather, the other cannot stand the test of time.
It does take time to build on the rock while building on sand is quick and easy.
The builder on the rock would have considered all weather conditions possible, while the
builder on the sand only thinks of one pattern of weather.
Continued on page 3
Winners’ News Issue 8 Volume 1 January 2019

As we can see from this analogy that they both built with intent, but their outcomes are not
the same.
It’s imperative that we obey the words of God this year and do them in order to enjoy His
glory.
God told David to move from Ziklag to Hebron after making an enquiry about which city to
move to. David did not just move to any location without asking God first.
To enjoy glory will require absolute obedience on our part and total dependency on Jesus.
The Bible says, if you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land.
Isaiah 1:18
Our complete obedience to His words will guarantee our glory.
God led the children of Israel by the cloud of glory, and when they rebelled against Him, He
allowed them to waste away in the wilderness.
May we never waste away in the wilderness of life. Refusal to obey the words of God can be
costly and dangerous.
Sometimes, the storm comes unannounced.
The parable of the builder on stone and sand illustrates the uncertainty in our world of today.
It is cheaper to build on sand, quicker to complete but that building will not stand the test of
time because the builder did not use durable materials.
Make the Word of God your material and don’t depend on cheap alternatives that will not
stand the test of time.
Sand is not durable and neither is it enduring
Sooner than later, it will subside and be pulled down by wind or storms.
The builder on the rock must have spent a lot of money, efforts and energy, and it would have
taken longer to complete, because the builder is building a structure that will withstand the
test of time and all sorts of weather, such a building will withstand any eventuality.
Jesus is the solid rock upon which every believer must build on.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15
Every man’s work will be tested by fire. if your work abides after the fire, you will receive a
reward, but if it be burnt down, you will suffer loss.
This year, we should resolve to hear from the Master ourselves and do all His instructions. It’s
only then that you are considered wise and you will attract His presence.
You cannot enjoy His glory without enjoying His presence.
Exodus 33:18-19
Moses desired to see the glory of God, but rather God, made His goodness pass before him
and proclaimed His name.
2 Corinthians 3:18 - When we behold His glory, we are transformed into the same image,
from glory to glory by the Spirit of the Lord.
This year, know for yourselves the sayings of Jesus and do them.
Don’t build your life on lies told by others, deception by the devil, fake doctrines and human
philosophy, not even your own intellectual ability.
Build your house on the rock, who is Jesus, upon His words, principles and His life.
Prayer: May the glory of the Lord surround you and all your family members in this new year as
you strive to hear and obey Jesus all the way in Jesus name, Amen. Shalom!

APPLYING THE 10 COMMANDMENTS
A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and
six year olds. After explaining the commandment to ‘Honor thy father and thy mother,’ she asked, ‘Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and
sisters?’ Without missing a beat, one little boy answered, ‘Thou shall not kill.’
CHARITY BEGINS AT CHURCH After the church service, seven year old Brian said to the preacher: 'When I grow up, I'm going
to give you some money.' 'Well, thank you, 'the preacher replied, 'but why?'
'Because my daddy says that you're one of the poorest preachers we've ever had.'
A JOKE ABOUT CREATION
An atheist scientist came to God and said, “We’ve figured out how to make a man without you.” God said, “OK, let me see you do it.” So the atheist bent down to the ground and scooped up a handful. But God stopped
him and said, “Oh, no you don’t. Get your own dirt!”

HYMN 1
PRAISE MY SOUL, THE KING OF
HEAVEN
Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven;
To His feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like Thee His praise should sing?
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise the everlasting King.
Praise Him for His grace and favour
To our fathers in distress;
Praise Him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Glorious in His faithfulness.
Father like He tends and spares us,
Well our feeble frame He knows.
In His hands He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes:
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Widely as His mercy flows.
Angels, help us to adore Him!
Ye behold Him face to face:
Sun and moon, bow down before Him,
Dwellers all in time and space,
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise with us the God of grace.
HYMN 2
CHRIST IS OUR CORNER STONE
Christ is our Cornerstone,
On Him alone we build;
With His true saints alone
The courts of heaven are filled;
On His great love our hopes we place
Of present grace and joys above.
O then with hymns of praise
These hallowed courts shall ring;
Our voices we will raise
The Three in One to sing;
And thus proclaim in joyful song
Both loud and long, that glorious Name.
Here, gracious God, do Thou
Forevermore draw nigh;
Accept each faithful vow,
And mark each suppliant sigh;
In copious shower on all who pray,
Each holy day, Thy blessings pour.
Here may we gain from Heav’n,
The grace which we implore;
And may that grace, once given,
Be with us evermore;
Until that day when all the blest
To endless rest are called away.
HYMNS FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY

HYMN 4
I’M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY
I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining everyday;
Still praying as I onward bound
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground”.
Chorus
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith on Heaven’s table –land;
Where love, and joy, and light abound,
Lord plant my feet on higher ground.
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise, and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these
abound,
My constant aim is higher ground.
Beyond the mist I fain would rise,
To rest beneath unclouded skies,
Above earth’s turmoil peace is found
By those who dwell on higher ground.
I long to scale the utmost height,
Though rough the way, and hard the flight,
My song while climbing, shall resound
Lord, lead me on to higher ground.
Lord, lead me up the mountain side,
I dare not climb without my Guide;
And, heaven gained, I’ll gaze around,
With grateful heart, from higher ground.
HYMN 3
GUIDE ME O THOU GREAT
JEHOVAH
Guide me, O Thou Great Jehovah!
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty,
Hold me with Thy powerful hand:
Bread of heaven! Bread of heaven!
Feed me now and evermore (2ce)
Open Thou the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow:
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
Song deliverer! Song deliverer!
Be Thou still my strength and shield(2ce).
If I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside:
Bear me through the swelling torrent
Land me safe on Canaan’s side:
Songs of praises! Songs of praises!
I will ever give to Thee (2ce).
Saviour, come! We long to see Thee,
Long to dwell with Thee above;
And to know in full communion,
All the sweetness of Thy love.
Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!
Take Thy waiting people home (2ce).
