24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. Matthew 7:24
Have you ever known exactly what you should do… and just didn’t do it?
- You knew you should make that call… but didn’t
- You knew you should forgive… but held on
- You knew you should pray… but got busy
We don’t struggle with information—we struggle with application. And that’s the tension Jesus addresses in one of His most powerful closing statements in the Sermon on the Mount. He doesn’t end with inspiration. He ends with a decision. “What are you going to do with what I just said?”
Jesus gives us two builders. Two houses. Two foundations. One storm. And the difference between them is not knowledge… It’s obedience.
