Message - Spiritual Blueprints

It has always been fascinating to me to watch a new house being built. You might drive by a new community development one week and see nothing but a Foundation and an empty lot; and then a month later see the roof being finished. There are so many different styles of homes. There are countless shapes sizes and colors of homes to choose from. There are small quaint looking houses with white picket fences, and there are also three story split wing mansions. You can drive down a street in anywhere USA, and see a dozen different kinds of homes. There is one thing that all houses have in common and that is that they are built according to a specific set of Blueprints.
Blueprints are a set of plans that contain the specific and exact information and instructions regarding the construction of the house. Blueprints show locations, measurements, materials, shape, height, length, and width. A Blueprints is basically a detailed plan of action. You might be wondering why am I spending so much time talking about blueprints, pay attention because I want to paint a picture in your mind of what Blueprints are specifically Spiritual Blueprints. Spiritual Blueprints have to do with building the house of God. Hebrews 3:4  and 3:6 says this, For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God. 3:4 Heb NKJ
But Christ as a Son over his own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end. 3:6 Heb NKJ
I find it very interesting that Jesus was the Son of a Carpenter, we as Christians need to realize that not only was Jesus a Carpenters son on Earth He was and always has been the son of the Master Carpenter our Father in Heaven. Jesus wants to tear down the old building this building represents the old man or woman the person that you once were before you were saved. The old man is dead, and the old house has been torn down God is building a new house, and you are that house.You need to always keep this question in your mind. How does my house look? The first question is Who is building the house, am I building the house or is God? Second what kind of material is the house being constructed with are they cheap and worthless  or Valuable and of good quality. Another important thing to consider is this, where exactly is this house being built in other words what kind of ground am I putting the foundation on? Is it solid and stable like a Rock, or am I building in my house in the sand? The Bible says that we should build the house on the rock. 
Therefore whoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the Rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was found on the rock Matt 7:24-25 NKJ. Jesus is the Rock and if we choose to build on the solid foundation the Rock which is Jesus Christ then our house will stand against the attacks of the enemy. One final thing and it is so important that you get a hold of this idea the Spiritual Blueprints we already have. The Bible itself is the Spiritual Blueprints for building the house of God which is the living temple of the Holy Spirit. The Bible Gods Word contains all of the correct instructions the exact plan of action for constructing you and me. We should never try to build the house with our own plans because if we do the it wont last. Psalm 127 says this, Unless the Lord builds the house, they Labor in vain who build it.Read the Bible the B.asic I.nstructions B.efore L.eaving E.arth. Obey what the Word of God says and your house will remain you will not fall. What an awesome privilege my friends it is to be built by the Master Carpenter God Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth the Author and Finisher of your Faith. God Bless You my Friends.
