“Building With a Deep Foundation” - Luke 6:46-49

• “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?” (Luke 6:46)

1. Is Jesus Lord of your life?

• “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’” (Matthew 7:21-23)

2. What has crisis revealed about your life?

• “And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house” (Luke 6:48)

And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built.” (Luke 6:47-48)

• “But the one who hears and does not do them is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the stream broke against it, immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.” (Luke 6:49)
