Building Kingdom Foundations.

Kingdom foundations are established beginnings that the future depends upon. They are basic rules and principles that you must abide by in order to have a guaranteed future and live a victorious life here on earth. Once established, foundations are not easily changeable; it therefore follows the principle of making your bed the way you wish to lie on it.
When building is placed on a faulty foundation, it soon comes crumbling down. The device of the devil, therefore is to attack and destroy your foundation, for if the foundation be destroyed what can the righteous do? Psalm 11:3. Spiritual warfare is not so much of the devil's strength; he has no hold on you until you build on a wrong foundation. The serpent bites, only when an hedge has been broken as seen in Eccl 8:10.
 You are the architect of your own future; the way you build your life today determines how you will live tomorrow, Gal 6:7, Gen 8:22. Life is thus a product of what is sown. Nothing happens by accident; everything that happens is hinged on the principle of seedtime and harvest. A lot of people suffer today, because  they did not take time yesterday to build good foundations for their lives. God is a God of principle, justice and order. If you build according to His pattern, you will live a fulfilled life on earth, but if you build out of pattern, you live in frustration here on earth even if you make heaven.Those who will live a fulfilled live here on earth and still spend eternity with Jesus are those who discovered kingdom foundations and build on these laid out foundations.
 Matt 7:24-27, shows the parable of two men who were building but on different foundations and the result of the test of their building. God does not condone irresponsibility, He will only come to the rescue of those who do things right. If you know what is right, happy you are if you do them, John 13:17. The devil has no power, but he is trickish. He attacks foundations with the intent to bringing men down. No matter how successful a man is, if his foundation is not firm a fall is awaiting.
 Kingdom foundations are therefore the keys to the kingdom. If you have these keys, you will have access to all God has gloriously made available to His sons. There are keys to the kingdom, not just one master key. How much keys you have will determine the numbers of doors you can open. Those who breakthrough are those who do not have the key. If you have the key, you open the door with ease and walk through.
The first step therefore to laying a solid foundation for a secured future is accepting Christ as the Lord and Master of your life. When He takes residence in your life, you can build on Him and be rest assured that no matter the rain that descends, flood that comes and wind that blows and beat your house; it will not fail: for it is founded upon a rock.
