What is your cornerstone?

A cornerstone is: the chief foundation on which something is constructed or developed.

With that in mind I want you to think about your life. What is your cornerstone? What is the main foundation of your life. Is it your job? Is it a relationship such as husband/wife or boyfriend/girlfriend? Is it your children? Is it money? Is it drugs or alcohol? What is your foundation? The bible is clear, there is only one foundation that does not fail and will never crumble....Jesus! All other foundations will fail at some point.

Predicted to come hundreds of years before Jesus came:

Isaiah 28:16
16 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
“Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation,
A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation;
Whoever believes will not act hastily.

Ephesians 2:18-20
18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,

1 Peter 2:6
6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
“Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”

The problem for us is the same as Israel, are we going to reject the Cornerstone(Jesus) and replace Him with something else! For us we may say we have the Cornerstone but is He really the foundation or do we have something else as the foundation???

Psalm 118:22
22 The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.

Matthew 21:42
42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:
‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
This was the Lord’s doing,
And it is marvelous in our eyes’?

Acts 4:11
11 This is the ‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’

So once again I ask...Is Jesus the cornerstone of your life? This is the most important question of your life!
