This is why Jesus replied, \u201cOn this rock I will build my church.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we learn from the parable of the two builders in Matthew 7:24-27, there is no safer place to build than the rock and no more dangerous place to put your house than the sand. Just ask the former owners of mansions built on the sandstone cliffs of Palos Verdes and Malibu. It may look grand, but it will not stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A wise man builds his house on the rock; we would be smart to do the same. What are the key elements of this rock, and what\u2019s the best way to ensure that your house is correctly fastened to a strong foundation? In our case, how do we get the thousands that come to Christ on our tours to be firmly planted on this foundation? It all starts with the cornerstone - Jesus Christ. The positioning of every other brick in our lives is determined by his position in our hearts as Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the crucial building blocks we add to this to make a building will endure can be best described by the acronym PRAYS. As we say from the stage, \u201cThe person who PRAYS to Jesus stays with Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PRAY, listen &amp; obey<br>READ your Bible daily<br>ATTEND church &amp; a small group<br>YIELD to the Holy Spirit \u2014Jesus first<br>SHARE your faith<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If repeated, these 5 steps are the building blocks of discipleship and ultimately make future disciple-makers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve been sharing this from the stage every night for a while. Then, one night last summer in Zambia, Ziza came up with creative hand signals to help the audience remember PRAYS. It was incredible seeing 30,000 repeat the hand signals together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to our Japan tour, and we just came off of a very successful string of events, after which we realized that we needed more uptempo songs in our set to reach the youth. It all started with God giving me one word on our flight to the Philippines: \u201cCapstone.\u201d I then added, \u201cHe is the Head Cornerstone.\u201d Within a few minutes, the song was almost complete, so I rushed into the bathroom on the plane and recorded my ideas so as not to lose them. I wonder what the passengers waiting outside thought!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the next concert in the Philippines, I felt the Lord nudging me to try it out on the audience with splendid results! Long after we finished the last song of the concert, the passionate youth kept shouting,\u201d He\u2019s my rock, He\u2019s my rock, yes Jesus is my rock!\u201d It was a catchy hook, And the upbeat tempo had the kids bouncing around like kangaroos on the basketball court in this poor community on the outskirts of Manila.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope you enjoy it and build your life on the true cornerstone\u2014Jesus Christ\u2014the only true foundation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/christafari.com\/donate\/\">Partner with us<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out the new video for Christafari's carnaval soca anthem 'He's My Rock'.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5717,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"none","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"Check out the new video for Christafari's carnaval soca anthem 'He's My Rock'.","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5716","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5716"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5716\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5718,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5716\/revisions\/5718"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5716"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5716"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/christafari.com\/api-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5716"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
