Every person has an obligation to HEAR what the Lord is saying. None are exempt from this responsibility.
Hearing is to be an energetic activity, untainted by disinterest or indifference.
Here is an activity characterized by probing interest, understanding, and commitment. Where these qualities are not found, acceptable hearing is not taking place. Where they are found, the blessing of God is sure to follow. Jeremiah gave this pertinent word . The occupants of this world are warned of the presence of their adversary, and they do well to give heed to the warning.
