The strength of a building lies in it's foundation. A good foundation keeps it stable and safe during storms, floods, and strong winds. The same goes for a spiritual foundation. A good foundation must not only be laid, but built upon in order to be strong and stable in the midst of calamities, tests, trials. In this teaching, Hiram Gomez emphasizes the importance of laying a good foundation and taking heed how you build upon it with the Word of God.
