Otherwise...

Acts 28:
Go to this people and say, You will keep on hearing, but will not understand; And you will keep on seeing, but will not perceive; For the heart of this people has become dull, And with their ears they scarcely hear, And they have closed their eyes; Otherwise they might see with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart and return, And I would heal them.

That verse is sad, isn’t it?  The people in this passage are not experiencing healing because they are not hearing.

We can go to church and hear the word, but leave the building and not understand what we’ve heard.

We can hear the music and the praise, and even close our eyes and get lost in the  melodies, and yet never really hear the message of God’s glory and power.

If we do show up, hear and listen and obey what we hear, respond and repent and believe as we sing, then what will happen?

Jesus will heal us.
