When Faith and Prayer are Not Enough

Psalms 66:18 If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.

Proverbs 28:9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.

Micah 3:4 Then they will cry to the Lord, but he will not answer them. Yes, he will hide his face from them at that time, because they made their deeds evil.

1 Peter 3:7 You husbands, in the same way, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered. (Emphasis mine)
