Unless The Lord Build The House

Just as the construction of a house requires much thought, preparation, and personal effort, so too does the progression of our spiritual life. A house cannot be built on a foundation that has poor footings. If this happens it will contribute to an improper or substandard base that cannot maintain what is built on top of it. Solomon writes, "Unless the LORD builds the house, its builder's labor in vain..." (Psalms 127:1 NIV). This book, "Construction, Obstruction, or Destruction" is the first volume in a series on the topic of the Lord constructing the perfect house-that is, completing us just the way that He intended us to be. Like building a house, we must follow Him appropriately as He guides us. True spiritual understanding will always manifest itself through application that honors Christ and gives glory to God.

Unless The Lord

How do you encourage a couple to live by principles that will create a strong marriage? How do you describe ways to avoid the pitfalls, meet the challenges and enjoy the blessings that a marriage offers? Unless the LORD Builds the House answers these questions by illustrating ten Biblical principles upon which a successful marriage is based. The author equates each principle to a part of a house; and when all the parts are put together, the reader has a marriage built by the LORD. This book makes a wonderful gift or can be read as a devotional at a wedding shower, bridal luncheon, or wedding anniversary party. At the end of the book, there is a house image that can be cut apart by principle. As each principle is read, it can be attached to the others, to build the house, creating a memorable visual of Gods plan for marriage From the Rock upon which the house is built, to the roof that covers it all with love, this devotional creates a beautiful picture of a marriage that will thrive.

While on a book promotion tour the Lord brought to my mind Ps 127. He reminded me that he wanted me involved in what he was doing and not just for me to include him in what I was doing. There are a lot of us who include God in what we are doing but even fewer of us who are involved in what he is actually doing. Unless the Lord Builds the House was written to refresh you and inspire you to turn to the Master Builder of life and learn how to relate to Him as well as learning what the Master Builder expects. Many practical tools were added to help you build a strong foundation for your life and career. Many of us need to learn more about relating, listening, understanding and yielding to the Master Builder as well as what he expects, and how he desires to invest in you by imparting in you the desires of your heart and how to successfully build them. If you are looking to be refreshed and perhaps challenged, then this is the book for you. The Master Builder of this life has your best interest in mind.
