Fit Foundation

Read:  Psalm 69 / Proverbs 24 / Ezra 3 / 1 Peter 3

Psalm 69:6 Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
Proverbs 24:27 Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.
Ezra 3:11 And all the people shouted... they praised the LORD... the foundation of the house of the LORD was laid.
1 Peter 3:15 But SANCTIFY the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.

The ground must have a preparation
Before the building can be framed.  
My heart must have a fit foundation
To preach the Gospel unashamed. 

So, let my Lord be sanctified
Within my heart in every season
As I declare why Jesus died
To answer those who ask a reason.
