Psalms 127 - Work WITH God

Feb. 05, 2018 Monday Message:

“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.” Psalms 127:1a NIV

In Psalm 127, Solomon writes that everything good comes from the Lord: safety, houses, food, children and peace. Things of God are universally good, while things not of God tend to have little value.

Mankind oftentimes thinks they can handle things themselves, but without the Lord, they will prove to be worthless.

By the way, in this Psalm, God stands up for children and family values. “Children are a gift from God; offspring are a reward from him.” Ps. 127:3

Jesus wants us full of God’s goodness – he wants God’s light to shine through each of us. “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matt. 5:16
