lip service failure



And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
Matthew 7:23

On a future day
some will say
     “Lord, Lord…”
Surprise declaration
of rejection:
“Depart from me!”
“Workers of iniquity!”
“You said what you do
but I never knew you!”

It isn’t enough
to say verbal stuff
if with the will of the Father
you never seem to bother.
Many can falsely claim
to believe in The Name
while living such a lie
will fail them when they die.

In the now
it has to be how
     Jesus is Lord.
Obedience shows
more than I know.
I seek to obey
what Word and Spirit say
“Well done!” I want to hear
from the Lord I love and fear.
