Don't allow sin to harden you. (Zephaniah 3:7)

Zephaniah 3:7
  •  
  •  
  •  
  • New Living Translation (NLT)
  •  
  •  
  • I thought, ‘Surely they will have reverence for me now!
  •     Surely they will listen to my warnings.
  • Then I won’t need to strike again,
  •     destroying their homes.’
  • But no, they get up early
  •     to continue their evil deeds.


  • We may wonder how the Israelites could of had such clear warnings and still not turn to God. The problem was that they allowed sin to so harden them that they no longer cared to follow God. They refused to heed God's warnings and they refused to repent. The more God punished them, the more they sinned. In fact, they were "eager" to sin (WOW!). If you disobey God now, your heart may grow hard, and you may lose your desire for God.
