In 1 Corinthians 3:9-10, Apostle Paul states that, “For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building. By the grace God has given me, I laid the foundation as an expert builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one must be careful how he/she build.”
In verse 10 apostle Paul admonishes the Christian man and woman, whether we by the grace God given to us has laid the foundation or are building on the ones laid by others.
We must be very careful how we build on such foundation. The questions now are, what kind/type of materials are we building with, of what quality are they? Are they made in Aba, or made in China?
Are they just quantity, sub-standard, standard or best quality/top notch? In as much as we know that the foundation is the most critical point of any building, the other visible part of the build is also very important, as they are what people see, admire, or despise.
People are either attracted to a building or turned off from it by how they look. In verses 12-16, “ Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.”
“If any man’s work abides which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.” May our works abide after it has been tried by fire, in Jesus Name. AMEN.
You will have good success this 2019.
Remain blessed.
Shalom.
