Jeremiah
"I will not listen to them"
Text: Jeremiah 11:11
WHEN PRAYERS WILL NOT BE HEARD
The children of Judah assumed that God will always hear their prayers. This assumption would be proven to be wrong!
“Therefore thus says the LORD:
‘Behold, I will surely bring calamity on them
which they will not be able to escape;
and though they cry out to Me, I will not listen to them.
Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem
will go and cry out to the gods to whom they offer incense,
but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Judah;
and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem
you have set up altars to that shameful thing,
altars to burn incense to Baal.'”
Jeremiah 11:11-13
