He is not playing around, but is deadly serious! And so as you might have already surmised "Listen" is not a suggestion but a command and in the Septuagint (Lxx) it is in the aorist imperative which is a like a military order to "Pay attention, now not later! This is urgent!" Any time the Lord speaks, we should be willing to pay attention, but especially when He gives a strong command to listen! THOUGHT - Does this describe your approach to the Word of God? Do you really listen? Remember that when the Bible speaks, God speaks! There are no exceptions. It follows that we should never come to the Bible with a lackadaisical, apathetic, ho-hum attitude. Ever! This is the Creator and Sustainer of our souls we are interacting with. I fear that too often I lose that sense of gratitude and wonder that God has provided an awesome entree to His throne through His Word. Forgive me Lord God for my too frequent "ho-hum" approach! Amen. Adam
