11 “Your ancestors refused to
listen to this message. They stubbornly turned away and put their
fingers in their ears to keep from hearing. 12 They made their hearts
as hard as stone, so they could not hear the instructions or the
messages that The Lord Of Heaven’s Armies had sent them by His
Spirit through the earlier prophets. That is why
The Lord Of Heaven’s Armies was so
angry with them.
13 “Since they refused to listen
when I called to them, I would not listen when they called to Me,
says The Lord Of Heaven’s Armies.

James 1:19 KJV
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let
every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
Arise,
My Soul Arise
Arise, my soul,
arise;
Shake off thy
guilty fears;
The bleeding
sacrifice
In thy behalf
appears:
Before the throne
my surety stands;
My name is written
on His hands.
He ever lives
above,
For me to
intercede;
His all-redeeming
love,
His precious blood
to plead;
His blood atoned
for all our race,
And sprinkles now
the throne of grace.
Five bleeding
wounds He bears,
Received on
Calvary;
They pour effectual
prayers,
They strongly speak
for me.
Forgive him, O
forgive, they cry,
Nor let that
ransomed sinner die.
The Father hears
Him pray—
His dear Anointed
One:
He cannot turn away
The presence of His
Son;
His Spirit answers
to The Blood,
And tells me I am
born of God.
My God is
reconciled,
His pardoning voice
I hear;
He owns me for His
child,
I can no longer
fear:
With confidence I
now draw nigh,
And Father, Abba
Father, cry.
