VerseD: James 1:19

My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger

James 1:19, CSB

God is in control and cares for us, so we are empowered to be like Him with others and even ourselves: more patient, more willing to listen, desiring to love before we react.

VerseD: James 1:19

‭My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry

James 1:19, NIV‬

We are created in God’s image, so let us follow Christ’s example of listening, asking questions, and only then offering advice or insight, honoring the image of God in each of us.

VerseD: James 1:19

‭Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger

James‬ ‭1:19‬, ‭ESV‬

In such a divided world, let us follow the example of God: listen well, and respond as necessary in wisdom. We don’t need to answer everything, just be faithful to our gracious Lord.

VerseD: Matthew 7:24

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”

Matthew 7:24, ESV

We can try to live our own truth, live but the world’s wisdom, or try to please God on our own.

Or we can listen to and obey Jesus.

Pray to hear Jesus and for the strength and wisdom to obey.

VerseD: 2 Corinthians 12:10

For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

2 Corinthians 12:10, ESV

God seems closest to us when we are at our lowest, usually because we are finally willing to listen and notice He has been showing Himself to us the whole time.

James 1:19, ESV

We like to know we’re right, so it can be hard to hear out other people. But the God who hears our every prayer empowers us to want to hear the other side, to listen to our fellow image-bearers, even when we know they’re wrong, to show the grace of Christ.

Do not assume you know what a person is thinking or where they are coming from. Everyone is more willing to talk when we are willing to hear.

Just as God hears His people, even though He sees our sin.

VerseD: 1 Peter 3:12

“For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

1 Peter 3:12, ESV

It is not the prayer but the heart of the person that God is focused on. Be right with God through Jesus Christ to know your prayers are heard.

1 Peter 3:12, ESV

Do not expect God to listen to your prayers if you openly flaunt your sin.

But if you sincerely draw near to Him and trust in Him, God hears every prayer you pray!
