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.
