Psalm 81:13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
Proverbs 5:1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:
Nehemiah 5:15 The former governors that had been before me were chargeable unto the people... and had
taken of them ... but so did not I, because of the fear of God.
3 John 9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to
have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
How foolishly we
hearken not
When God would
give us understanding!
How vain is every
stubborn thought
That does heed our
Lord's commanding!
How wise is our
obedience
To Christ as we
incline our ear,
That He might have
preeminence
As we are governed
by His fear!
