A CALL TO DISCIPLESHIP SONGS OF ASCENT UNLESS THE LORD BUILDS THE HOUSE Text: Psalm 127

What Can We Learn from this Psalm When We Are Considering Building Anything for God?

I. FRUITLESS EFFORTS (Psalm 127:1,2) "In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching you received from us. 7. For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you,” II Thessalonians 3:6-7

I. FRUITLESS EFFORTS (Psalm 127:1,2) 8. nor did we eat anyone's food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9. We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to follow.” II Thessalonians 3:8-9

I. FRUITLESS EFFORTS (Psalm 127:1,2) 10. For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: 'If a man will not work, he shall not eat.' 11. We hear some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies. 12. Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat.” II Thessalonians 3:6-12

I. FRUITLESS EFFORTS (Psalm 127:1,2) "And we urge you, brothers, warn those who are idle." I Thessalonians 5:14

II. LIVING ASSETS (Psalm 127:3-5) "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:5

II. LIVING ASSETS (Psalm 127:3-5) "My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, 16. your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:15,16

II. LIVING ASSETS (Psalm 127:3-5) "So Joshua took the entire land, just as the LORD had directed Moses, and he gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their tribal divisions." Joshua 11:23

II. LIVING ASSETS (Psalm 127:3-5) Numbers 26:52; Deuteronomy 21:19; 22:15,24
