Sunday Anointing Service, 30th August 2026.
Preacher: Pastor Femi Onikeku.
Theme: Foundation
Every building is only as strong as its foundation. A beautiful house may have attractive walls, expensive decorations, modern furniture and a beautiful roof, but if the foundation is weak, the entire building is at risk.
In the same way, our lives may look successful on the outside, but what matters most is the foundation we build on. Our achievements, education, career, relationships, possessions and reputation cannot substitute for a strong spiritual foundation.
Before people see a building, the foundation has already been laid.
The foundation is usually hidden beneath the ground, but it determines the stability of everything that people eventually see.
God is doing things in your life that nobody may see yet. Your prayers may be private. Your fasting may be private. Your obedience may be unnoticed. Your study of God's Word may happen when nobody is watching.
But never underestimate what God is building in secret.
A strong foundation requires obedience to God's Word. The Word of God must move from our ears into our hearts and from our hearts into our actions.
When God's Word becomes your foundation, it guides your decisions, relationships, behaviour and priorities. When you don't know what to do, go back to the Word. When you are confused, go back to the Word. When you are discouraged, go back to the Word.
When temptation comes, go back to the Word.
The greatest question is not how beautiful your life looks from the outside. The greatest question is whether you have the right foundation underneath.
When the storms come, your foundation will speak; when difficulties come, your foundation will speak. When disappointment comes, your foundation will speak. When success comes, your foundation will speak. Build on Christ, build on God's Word.
The foundation determines how high a building can safely go. If the foundation is weak, the building cannot safely carry additional weight. Spiritually, God may want to take you to another level, but He first wants to strengthen your foundation. Before greater influence, there must be greater character. Before greater responsibility, there must be greater maturity. Before greater blessing, there must be greater stewardship. Before God gives you more, He may work on the foundation of what you already have.
That is why we must not become obsessed with appearance while neglecting character.
God is more interested in what is underneath than what is on display.
