Jeremiah 22:21 I spoke unto you in your prosperity; but you
said, I will not hear. This has been your manner from your
youth, that you obeyed not my voice.
Proverbs 1:24-33 Because I have called, and you refused; I have
stretched out my
hand, and no man regarded; But you have ignored all my
counsel, and would have none of my reproof: I also will laugh at
your calamity; I will mock when your fear comes; When your
terror comes as desolation, and your destruction comes as a
whirlwind; when distress and anguish comes upon you. Then
shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me
early, but they shall not find me: Because they hated knowledge,
and did not choose the fear of the LORD: They would have none
of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall
they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their
own devices. For the turning away of the simple shall slay them,
and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. But whosoever
hearkens unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be secure from
the fear of evil.
Let us answer, for the Lord he is calling. He stands at the door
and knocks, if we open it, he will come in unto us and sup with
us and we with him. He will do this Now.
