The Cornerstone

     The Israelites awaited their Rock, the Rock of their salvation.

“For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?” 2 Samuel 22;32

Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord Himself, is the rock eternal. Isaiah 26:4

                                                                                                   

     And Jesus, Himself was cut from the Rock as the cornerstone. This was prophesied in the Psalms.

The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. Psalm 118:22

     Jesus would be rejected by His own. Jesus is the cornerstone on which everything is built. The Rock of salvation, our firm foundation. Jesus Himself quoted the Scripture above. (Matthew 21, Mark 12, Luke 20) See also Acts 4.

     Do not reject the cornerstone laid down for us. It is Jesus. Place Your life on the firm foundation of the Rock, our salvation.

For in Scripture it say, “See I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in Him will never be put to shame. 1 Peter 2;6

Lord,

We praise You for this precious and chosen cornerstone. We place our trust in Jesus, the Rock of our salvation. He will hold us firmly. He is our refuge.

In Jesus name,

Amen
