Listening To The Word

1 THESSALONIANS 2:3:
"FOR THIS CAUSE ALSO THANK WE GOD WITHOUT CEASING, BECAUSE, WHEN YOU RECEIVED THE WORD OF GOD WHICH YOU HEARD OF US, YOU RECEIVED IT NOT AS THE WORD OF MEN, BUT AS IT IS IN TRUTH, THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH EFFECTUALLY WORKETH ALSO IN YOU THAT BELIEVE."

God is pleased with the people when they heard the Lord speak, that will receive it. Also we hear things from men, and can't believe it because it is foreign to our minds. Paul was grateful that they were listening.

What does God do when He sends The Word to live among us, gives us people that day in and day out listen to the Word, but does not want to act upon The Word they heard?

That is our question today in SOAP Ministries.
1.) What does the Word of God say about not listening to Him?
2.) What was the Apostle Paul so glad and thankful about?
3.) Is it important to convey the Words of the Lord effectively to get people to hear them?
4.) The Holy Spirit anoints His Teachings, so you can believe, is this true?
