LORD, LORD. This 4m episode of "WHEN THE FLOOD WATERS CAME," provides you with the readings taken from the Book of Luke verses 46 to 49. The commentary presents an insight into what the heart should say in response to the question, "Why do you call me, 'LORD, LORD', and do not do what I say?" Jesus pointed out that those who called Him by this title of respect acknowledged submission to Him. However, when these same people ignored His teaching, they were guilty of hypocrisy.
Hearing and reading God's Word is absolutely essential. But if you stop there, disaster will result. The Bible wasn't meant to be merely studied and memorized; it was meant to be believed and obeyed. We are to "be doers of the Word and not hearers only" see Jas 1:22.
Obeying God is like building a house on a strong, solid foundation that stands firm when storms come. When life is calm, our foundations don't seem to matter. But when crises come, our foundations are tested. Be sure your life is built on the solid foundation of knowing and trusting in Jesus Christ.
