Text: Psalms 127:1 (KJV)
Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that
build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
Our text above has literally explained everything
we will be discussing today, but I will love to ask us two questions. The first
one is, have you ever realized, you have a building? The second question is,
who is your Builder and Keeper? Take a few seconds to answer these questions.
Based on the first question, I believe there were diversities of answers, but
the truth is, we all have a building,
and that building is us because we are God’s building. Good to know. 1 Corinthians 3:9b (GNT) –
And you are God’s field. You are also God’s building. We know that in
every building, there is always someone who is the Master Planner, think of it
like an architect who has the plan of the building, and he/she is guiding and
supervising the building until it is satisfactorily completed. The same goes
for us as God’s building because we need someone to guide, supervise, and
correct us whenever there is an error in the plan as to order our steps, and
that person is GOD. He has the architectural plan of your year and life. That
is why I asked the second question earlier because many, at times, people go to
other sources searching for an alternative master planner. Beloved, this is the
season we need to draw and align our plans from the original source, the architect
of our life. All our effort is usually in vain because except the Lord builds
and keeps that building, the watchman’s effort is all in vain. We need to realize
this early and fast, not to struggle to run life with our building strategy or begin
to set plans in his absence.
The amazing part is that this GREAT MASTER PLANNER, God, does not
sleep nor slumber; He already has the plans for our life even before we were
formed, and He is always with us even after we are done building, he perfects
all. Psalms 121:4- Behold, he that
keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. Jeremiah 1:5- Before I formed
thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I
sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. The watchman or the other planners will be deep asleep and slumber at
night, and they plan based on what you tell them, but God already has the plan,
and His aim is for us to enjoy our building and have peace and sound sleep as
His beloved. All we just need to do is to follow Him, and He will fight and
remove all those unwanted plans. Exodus 14:14- The Lord shall
fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. I tell you,
there is nothing greater than this BUILDER, so why don’t you allow Him today and
stop toiling to calculate and labouring in vain because your energy cannot keep
the city glorious no matter your experience in Jesus name.
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Thank you Lord because I am rooted and grounded in the Lord and I
will walk with ease with fruits to show despite the noise in the environment in
Jesus name.
2. Father, please help us to continually build with the Master so as
not to labour in vain, in Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE: It
is never late to solidify in this great Master Planner because the year is
still fresh.
