WHAT?
Setting an UNSHAKEABLE foundation = God’s Inheritance
When HE is our foundation – when your identity and your value are on HIS terms and not yours – you will be unshakable.
1 Peter 1:13-16
So prepare your minds for action and exercise self-control. Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world. So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then. But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.”
SO WHAT?
However, in the midst of this shaky world, there is hope.
