Psalm 127 reminds us that without God’s intervention, all our efforts—whether building a home, raising a family, or pursuing our work—are ultimately in vain. God is the true builder who brings growth and blessing to his household. This Psalm challenges us to balance diligent work, restful trust, and heartfelt prayer, recognising that everything we do depends on his faithful hand. Reflect on what it means for your life and ministry to truly believe, ‘Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labour in vain.’
