"Building Up"


Jude 20-21 "But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, keeping yourselves in the love of God."


Notice the text says, "Building up yourselves on your most holy faith." In order to build something, one must first have a plan of what to build. The problem with most Christians today is that we leave the building up of our faith to mere chance. It is often the one thing that we don't plan.No worthy building gets built that way.


We plan everything in today's society. We have our daily planner in our phones for crying out loud. We have daily planners, weekly, monthly, and even yearly planners. But yet the most important thing we ought to be planning is the building up of our faith. It must be built according to a plan.


Get a plan on how you are going to build your spiritual life. Bible reading, prayer time, faithful church attendance, witness, tithing. All of these are commanded to every Christian, but yet because we don't plan that part of our lives, they often go undone. Today, get yourself a plan. Stick to it. Build yourself a spiritual house you would be proud to entertain our Lord and Savior in. Don't plan to do it tomorrow, do it today.
