Do you have a crack in your caulk? Matthew 7:24-25

Hello all. God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!  Jesu Jevu!
  Well, I do hope yesterday's message stirred you to action, prayer action.  A man named Frankie relayed this story and as I read I found it quite revealing to me and should be to you as well.
   He was working at the church taking down walls and baseboards when they noticed there was some damage and rot by the AC ducts.  Well, before they could continue they would need to replace the damage.  But where was the damage coming from?
   Upon further investigation it was discovered that the caulk outside the building had dried and was allowing water to seep in and do damage.  If the leak was not fixed, then this same situation would arise once more.
  We are the same way when we have cracks in our armor, we leak and the things of the world can come in and begin to cause internal damage, even when we feel that we are firmly planted in Jesus as our rock.
   While we grow in the LORD we need to continue to turn our lives over to Him in all areas so that our temples are strong and whole without rot that can cause us to crumble.
    During our continual prayer time we need to ask the Holy Spirit to fill us, keep us filled so that when we are full and overflowing, the world can't get in.  If we do have injury or rot, just ask Jesus to fill you back up with the Holy Spirit and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you the cracks in your armor so they may be repaired.  Seal them with repentance, forgiveness and the caulk of the word of God.
   This is a powerful and strong message. Matthew 7:
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 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.
    Stand on the rock my friend. Love you all. Pray for America, the world, and Christians to become serious about their relationship with God.
Soli Deo Gloria
Johnny
