Are your ears dull or blessed? ~ study

Jesus' commentary on those who hear but do not obey and apply the Word of God that they hear, read, and study - contrasted with those who do, and produce good fruit to His glory! ~ "And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: 'Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, and seeing you will see and not perceive; for the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, so that I should heal them.' But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear; for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it." ~ Matthew 13:14-17

Let us continue to grow in being doers of His Word and not just hearers only, and only obeying what is comfortable for us ~ :) ~ your bro/friend and a growing servant/life-slave of Jesus, SH
