In Matthew 7, Jesus gives a sobering warning: not everyone who claims to follow Him truly knows Him. It’s possible to say the right things and even do the right things, yet still miss the relationship He desires. The true test of genuine faith isn’t found in performance, but in intimacy and obedience. Thestrength of that faith isn’t proven when life is easy, but when storms come. Only a life built on Jesus will endure. What we build our lives on will determine whether we stand or fall.
