Acts 20:28

“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.” (Matthew 7:24)
These verses are found as Jesus was “wrapping up” His Sermon on the Mount teaching. He summarizes what it looks like to be a faithful follower and “doer” of His teachings and His Word. He explains that to build “on the rock” means to be a hearing, responding disciple to Jesus’ words and teachings, not a phony superficial one. Practicing obedience becomes the solid foundation to weather the storms of life. When your life is grounded “on the rock” (Jesus’ teachings) then you will be able to stand firm without everything around you falling down and being destroyed. You will be able to “weather the storm” with Jesus.

Matthew 7:24-29 “Built on a Solid Foundation”
