FIRMLY ESTABLISHED ON THE ROCK
- Dr. Paul Dhinakaran

My friend, Jesus says in Matthew 16:18, “...on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.” Surely, the gates of hell, which indicate the anger of the wicked people, the afflictions caused by terrible disease, the pain caused by losses and even the oppressive thoughts of guilt and condemnation, will not be able to prevail against us.
We Are His Church: Whom does the Lord call “My church”? It is you and me. We are the temple of the living God, and His Spirit dwells in us. The divine power of God will flow from within us and work wonders in our lives. (I Corinthians 3:16 & I Corinthians 6:19)
Christ Is The Rock: What is this ‘Rock’ upon which the Lord establishes us, His church? Christ Himself is the Rock. It is the unconditional love of Jesus, who emptied Himself and gave Himself as a sacrifice on the cross, which holds us firmly to the Rock like an adhesive. Therefore, no matter how many shortcomings we may have, as we rest in His love and draw close to Him, we will experience His blessings flowing into our lives. (Isaiah 51:1, Romans 8:35 & John 21:15–17)
What are the blessings that come to us when we are firmly established upon Jesus, the Rock?
1. Living Water From The Rock: ‘When we look at the people of Israel, we see that they were experiencing severe physical bondage and were also struggling in their relationship with God. Through the waters of the Red Sea, they were cleansed of their past bondages, experiencing a decisive transition from their old life into a new beginning of freedom.’ In the same way, God will bring us out of the old things and lead us into a new life by filling us with the living water, Christ, the Rock. He will break every chain, cleanse us, renew us and make all things new for us. (I Corinthians 10:4 & John 7:37)
2. Sweet Provision From The Rock: The Lord will give us His choicest blessings during each season and we will experience the goodness He has prepared for us. (Deuteronomy 32:13)
3. Strength From The Rock: When we are firmly established upon the Rock, we will have divine strength to withstand whatever comes against us. As we build our lives upon His Word, our foundation will become stronger and no storm will be able to destroy what God is building in us and He will cause us to ride upon the high places of the earth. (Luke 6:48, I Samuel 30:6, I Samuel 30:18, Psalm 16:8 & Isaiah 58:14).
4. Protection From The Rock: The name of Jesus Christ is upon us, and we are His temple. So let us not be afraid of the powers that rise against us, because the One who dwells in us is greater. Demons or powers of darkness will not prevail against the one whose life is established upon Christ. (Matthew 16:18, Daniel 6:22, Philippians 2:10 & Romans 16:20)
“My loving Heavenly Father, help Your children to firmly stand on You, the solid Rock, give them new life through Your living water to experience Your goodness. Let them experience the sweetness of Your provision, Your strength to withstand every storm and the divine protection from every evil power that rises against them. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray, Amen.”
