Daily Devotion

 With Pastor Ancel Presnell

“EVERYONE BUILDS”

1 Corinthians 3:10 “According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.”

Paul places responsibility on every individual believer. “Every man” is from Greek the word hekastos, meaning every individual person (Mounce, Mounce’s Complete Expository Dictionary, 2006). Building personal faith is not limited to leadership; it involves everyone.

Faith must be built daily. This includes children, senior adults, young married couples, college students, middle-aged adults, high school students, and middle school students. Faith-building must extend beyond church gatherings into daily life.

You can attend a doctrinally sound church yet still neglect your own spiritual growth. A thriving church requires everyone—pastor, leaders, and members—to take responsibility for their daily faith journey. While strong leadership and many programs are valuable, personal commitment to both faith development and participation in church work is essential for us all.
