Daniel Plan 1/30/17: Build on the Rock

Happy Monday!

Today we are going to start talking about the true basic pillar of the Daniel Plan: faith.

Our "'bodies are temple of the Holy Spirit' (1 Corinthians 6:19)", and to build a temple you need to have a strong foundation.

In the Book of Matthew, Jesus tells us that those who hear His words and put them into practice are like a wise man who builds his house on the rock.

The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.
— Matthew 7:25-26

Strong foundations make good construction. Build on the rock. 

This means spending time in the Word. After all, if you are going to heed His words, you need to know what they are. Many Christians spend their time on this earth as "fans of the Jesus team" without ever knowing the riches of participation with Him at the core.

When faith is the foundation, you can build habits and perspectives for health in any area of your life.
