How am I being inconsistent?
The Lord’s day is applicable to every day that the Lord owns. (He owns them all by nature of His creation of them, but still not every day is given to Him)
Romans 14:6
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
When something is of the Lord it proceeds from Him. To say every day is the day of the Lord is to diminish what the Bible says is the Day of the Lord. So, even though every day is from the Lord because “by Him all things consist,” we don’t say that this is the Fay of the Lord, we say/sing this is the day that the Lord hath made.
But to attribute a day to the Lord as the Lord’s Day is to regard the day to be His. Some people think that the right day is Saturday and some people think that it is Sunday.
They are not actually the same words. They are different words that add different meanings.

The Lord’s Day
Parallel for people who have trouble seeing the difference:
