Luke 6:46 “But why do you call Me`Lord, Lord,’ and do not do the things which I say?”
Why does Jesus repeat the ‘Lord’ here? He is reminding His hearers of the tendency to say a lot of God-honoring things without following it up with God-honoring deeds. Words and deeds are meant to go together. But just as the Jewish nation, so often people honor God with their lips while their heart is far from Him. We have all been guilty of it.
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your mercy! And thank You for Your power! Though we get our worship out of order, You are indeed worthy of it. You alone are God and we are blessed to be a part of Your world. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
