Zephaniah 3:2
New English Translation (NET)
2 She is disobedient;
she refuses correction.
She does not trust the Lord;
she does not seek the advice of her God.
Do you know people who refuse to listen when someone disagrees with their opinions? Their root problem is pride - inflated self-esteem. God's people had become so proud that they would not hear or accept God's correction. Do you find it difficult to listen to the spiritual counsel of others or God's Words from the Bible? Don't let pride make you unable or unwilling to let God work in your life. You will be more willing to listen when you consider how weak and sinful you really are compared to God.
