46 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? 
47 Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 
48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep
_{The title of our post today — Dig Deep.}

and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock. 
49 But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.” Luke 6

Foundations are important; so important that we cannot build a proper anything without the proper foundation. JESUS knew that, and He built on it to explain to us that HE is the proper and only foundation for us to build these mortal lives on. Because vehement storms are going to come, be we saved or lost.

But he who heard and did nothing . . . oh, let me not be one who hears and does nothing! Rather, let me pick up a pickaxe and a shovel, whatever it takes to dig deep in the Word so that I can build this mortal life on the ROCK of my Salvation. I urge you to do the same. Pick up your Bible, paper, pen, and a commentary, if you please, and set about digging deep into the Word of GOD. As the TEXT says, vehement storms are going to come, but we who have dug deep and whose lives are built on the ROCK will stand.
One more thought. Please notice the Text reads: the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock. 
Notice that it says could not. It doesn’t say did not, but could not! The storms, the enemy cannot beat us when we are solid on the Rock.
