CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

To be heard or not to be heard, that is the question? Verse 9 says that God detests the prayers of a person who ignores the law. If you plan on going right back to hang out with your sin the moment you get off your knees, the likely hood that your prayers are going to land anywhere but the trash can are highly unlikely. When we walk away from our sin and follow Christ, He willingly listens to us. In fact what closes His ears is not the depth of our sin, it's our secret desire to do it again. It's important to remember that God hears our intents as clearly as He hears our words.

Don't let anything hinder your prayer life with the Creator of the Universe. If there was ever anyone you need to listen to you, it's Him. Examine your heart and let God cleanse it.
