Please Get Used To My Voice

[S] Jeremiah 11:14 --
 ¹⁴"Therefore do not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will not listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.

[O] What a scary concept of God not listening to my prayers especially when I call out in my distress.  In this context His people blatantly worshiped other idols and veered away from following God and that attributed to this result, however, if these people were like me most of them probably got into this point gradually by compromising their spiritual boundaries little bit at a time.  My reason for this thinking is that if they had totally turned away from God intentionally why would they even bother to call on God in their own disaster?  Deep inside they probably never gave up God but distracted by other idols that seem attractive on the surface.

[A] Just having a wishful thinking of wanting to draw closer to God and follow Him is not going to make me a true and faithful follower of God because more so than what I wish for, I how I align my daily living according to God's principles is what's going to please God's heart and He will answer prayers coming from such people.  The question is:  will I call on His name every day and fall at His feet instead of calling on many other gods when things are going well and call on God when things are not going well?  Practice calling His name daily!

[P] Dear God, I want to not only get to know Your voice daily but I also would like for You to get used to hearing my voice calling Your name.  Please hear my prayers every moment I call on Your name.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
