He cried and they would not hear

“Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts:”

- Zechariah 7:13

Not everyone is willing to listen when the word of God is preached. There is a time when some people will not hear God’s word. They refuse to heat God when His man cries out.

God is patient. He wants all men to come to Him. He sends His word and His people to call all men to repentance. His great love draws all men to Him, yet there are some who will not listen when He calls.

God is patient. He waits patiently for men to call out to Him. Sadly, the day is going to come when it will be too late. God’s patience is not infinite – one day it will be too late to call out to God. Once man has crossed death’s door they can call all they want, but God will not hear.

We have a pressing need to see men come to Christ while they have a chance. May we be constantly praying and sharing while men have their chance.
