Ouvir
Ouvir é uma disciplina espiritual essencial. A Bíblia exorta: 'Quem tem ouvidos, ouça.' A fé vem pelo ouvir, e ouvir é mais que escutar — é obedecer e agir.
A fé vem pelo ouvir
Sem ouvir a Palavra, não há fé. A pregação do evangelho gera fé nos corações de quem ouve com disposição e humildade.
Trusting in God comes from hearing—hearing the message of Christ.

But how can people call on someone they don’t trust? How can they trust someone they haven’t heard about? How can they hear unless they’re told?
Anybody who has ears should be listening!"
The prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled in them: ‘Even though you hear, you won’t understand, and even though you see, you won’t perceive. They have a hard-hearted attitude, they don’t want to listen, and they’ve closed their eyes. If they didn’t they might be able to see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and understand in their minds. Then they could return to me and I would heal them.’
Ouvir e obedecer
Não basta ouvir — é preciso praticar. Quem ouve a Palavra e a pratica é como o homem sábio que edificou sobre a rocha.

Deus ouve nossas orações
O Senhor ouve os que clamam a Ele de coração sincero. Ele inclina os ouvidos para as nossas súplicas e responde com fidelidade.

Please let me hear joy and happiness again; let the bones you have crushed be glad once more.
Tell me every morning about your trustworthy love, because I put my confidence in you. Show me the way I should go, because I dedicate myself to you.
We can be confident that he will listen to us as long as we ask in accordance with his will.
If we know that he hears our requests, we can be sure that we will receive what we’ve asked him for.
Then you will call for my help, you will come and pray to me, and I will answer you.
Call out to me, and I will answer you, explaining to you amazing, hidden things about which you don’t have any idea.
Don’t you see? The Lord’s arm isn’t too weak to save you, and his ear isn’t too deaf to hear you!

I tell you the truth: The time is coming—in fact it’s here already—when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live!
Look, I’m standing at the door, knocking. If anyone hears me calling and opens the door, I will come in and eat with them, and they with me.

You are to follow the Lord your God and respect him. Keep his commandments and do what he says; worship him and hold onto him.
Let me ask you: does God give you the Spirit and do so many miracles among you because you keep the law, or is it because you trust in what you heard?
Sabedoria no ouvir
Seja pronto para ouvir e tardio para falar. A sabedoria começa com a disposição de ouvir instrução e aceitar correção.
Replying before hearing is stupidity and shame.
If you pay attention to wise instruction you will do well; you’ll be happy if you trust in the Lord.
My son, pay attention to your father’s instruction, and don’t reject your mother’s teaching.
If you accept instruction, you’re on the path to life, but if you reject correction you’ll go astray.
God hates the prayers of people who disregard the law.
It’s better to listen to criticism from a wise person than to hear the song of fools.
Everything just keeps on going. You can’t say all there is to say. You can’t see all there is to see. You can’t hear all there is to hear.

If you will not listen and if you will not take it to heart to honor me, says the Lord Almighty, then I will place a curse on you and I will curse your blessings—in fact I have already cursed them because you haven’t taken what I said to heart.
However, when I talk with you, I will open your mouth so you can tell them that this is what the Lord God says. Those who want to listen will listen, and those who want to refuse will refuse, for they are a rebellious people."
The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will send a famine on the land—not a famine of bread, or a lack of water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord.

If a brother sins against you, go and point out the wrong to him, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you’ve won your brother over. But if he doesn’t listen, then take one or two more people with you, so that by two or three witnesses the truth can be confirmed. If, however, he refuses to listen to them, then tell the church. If he refuses to listen to the church as well, then treat him as a foreigner and a tax collector.

The grave wound its ropes around me; death set snares for me.
In my despair I called on the Lord; I called out to my God. He heard my voice from his Temple; my cry for help reached his ears.
