Commentary from Pastor Michael White:  

…but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end. – Heb 3:6

If we hold fast to our faith in Jesus, we are His “house.” If we are the “house” of Jesus Christ, that means:

  • He builds us
  • He lives in us
  • He keeps us clean
  • He maintains what He has built

In the same way you would never look at a house and say “build yourself!”, you should never look at your life and expect it to simply get better on its own. God is the Master Craftsman who raises you up, builds you up, and keeps you from crashing down: all of your days. Ask Him to build what no other man – not even you – can!

Prayer:

Father, thank You for making me Your house. Build me. Live in me. Keep me clean! Keep me strong, all of my days, in Jesus’ name.
