The Foundation of Our Hope

Scriptures to build every answer on

We chose these scriptures to clothe every corner and crevice of our new home but you don’t have to be building a new house to use these verses. Dedicate the place you live in now by praying these Truths over every room. Declare these promises over your family, your body, and your life today.

God’s Word should be the opening line to every one of your answers. It’s the key that unlocks every door to your decisions.
