What does it mean to be a wise master builder? As you go about building in your career, family, business you need wisdom to know how to build and ensure what you build is firm and secure. 1 Corinthians 3:10-11 says According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Join me in the prayer of agreement to ask God make you a Wise Master Builder
Hello, today we shall be praying about being a wise master builder. We shall establish on which foundation you are to build your project, your life and everything that you desire to do, even as you pursue purpose. We shall look at what this means to you and to me, and also why you should be a wise master builder According to the Word of God in 1 Corinthians, 3, 10 to 11, and it says according to the grace of God which is given unto us, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation and another builder thereon, but let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon, for other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. So what does it? What does all that mean? To be a wise master builder, we ought to be wise as we build. And what is it that we are building? It could be a project, it could be a family thing, it could be a school thing, it could be, it could be a dream that you're pursuing. All this requires wisdom, even as you pursue it and build on it. We are to lay foundation and build on it. Like everything else, including a building, you have to have a firm and strong foundation for the subsequent buildings to come upon it. And this is the same thing that we're being reminded in scripture that the firm foundation here is Jesus Christ, and there is a pattern to build. Hence, we are to take caution how we build upon it, because we are not the first people to begin projects. There have been people beginning projects in time, ever began the projects families as school, work at the workplace, different things that we are pursuing, and we are reminded that we are to build according to plan. And whose plan is this? This is according to the plan of God. Then you ask what is the foundation that I ought to build upon? 1 Corinthians, 3, 10, 11, 11. Says for other foundation can no man lay than that that is laid, which is Christ Jesus. So Jesus Christ is our foundation. He is the one that we confess and through him we are saved. Therefore, the foundation is Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1:
Why should you build on Jesus Christ? Number one he is the solid rock and the foundation that withstands everything. Number two, he is the source of wisdom and he is the wise master builder. So, even as you and I are praying to be wise master builders, he has already laid up blueprint for us to be able to follow and therefore we too can be wise master builders. And number three, the one in whom we run to when we are in trouble, is Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1:
So many of us form and start different projects on different foundations, but today I ask you to set your gaze on Christ, to be able to change your gaze, and ask Jesus Christ to be the one to help you and I to build, to start and to sustain any projects that we are doing through the wisdom that is in Christ Jesus, because he is the solid rock on whom we trust. And so we shall be praying that, as you build on your purpose, as you pursue passion and purpose, that indeed, you will be a wise master builder. As you start any project, any project that was stuck and you want to re-engage again, we are saying, lord, we want you to help us to be the wise master builder, and so that is my prayer today, and we're asking that, father, help me to be a wise master builder. So let us pray Our Lord and our God. We come before you this day with Thanksgiving in our hearts. Indeed, you set forth the master plan through Christ Jesus, who is the wise master builder, and we are able to use the same blueprint that is in Christ Jesus, to be able to build any project and any first set of our life and purpose as we pursue it today and walk through it. And so, father, we pray that, indeed, oh God, you will help us to be wise master builders, getting the blueprint setting forth, the foundation, a right in Christ Jesus and guiding us.
Speaker 1:
Oh Lord, father, we bless you, oh God, and we ask you, father, that you will help us, that, knowing that we may not be the first ones on any path on planet earth, but we are the ones eliciting your help right now and saying help us, lord Jesus, to be wise master builders. Father, we bless you. Even as you have placed the various projects in our hands, we are praying that mighty God will help us to be wise master builders. We are also praying, jehovah, for the projects that have stalled, that you're giving us new dreams and revelations to be able to revive them, oh God, and even as you are reviving them in our hearts and our minds as we pursue them, jehovah, father, you're helping us to be wise master builders. Father, we thank you because you are the foundation. We thank you, lord Jesus, because you are the solid foundation on whom we trust God. Almighty be thou art exalted, even as we continue building that which you have put in our hearts and in our minds this day and forever. In Jesus name, we do pray, amen.
