Judges 9-10 Ps 49 1 Cor 16

There is no greater clarity of mind and judgement when an individual recognises the need of a savior. This need comes about when God's spirit cries out against sin and the heart responds. Commonly this cry was not heard in the Old Testament until unrelenting tragedy struck and God could no longer bear their suffering. In the New Testament the cry becomes uniquely amplified through Christ. His suffering and death touches us in a profound way that has a life lasting effect. It is the Holy Spirit who cries out and draws us to Christ. Listen, not with ears but with your heart.
