Jeremiah 18:11-12
11 "Now therefore say to the people of Judah and those living in Jerusalem, 'This is what the LORD says: Look! I am preparing a disaster for you and devising a plan against you. So turn from your evil ways, each one of you, and reform your ways and your actions.' 12 But they will reply, 'It's no use. We will continue with our own plans; each of us will follow the stubbornness of his evil heart.' "
A stubborn heart will lead to a path that of destruction. When God wants to move in our lives, or wants to show us His will for us, if our hearts are stubborn and we do not allow God to do a work in us, it will lead to sin and death.
We need to allow God to be like the potters hand, as read in Chapter 18 of Jeremiah. We need to allow God to shape our hearts and our lives in the plans that He has for us. Sometimes He needs to break us so that we can be humble before Him.
Father God, I pray that you have grace on your acts, and do not judge us with anger. Let us not be stubborn against you and allow to be moved by your Spirit. I pray for your hand upon my hearts, and those of your people, to be able to listen to your Words and to yield to you in your ways. I thank you for your Spirit for guidance, and I pray for your continual blessing in Jesus name.
Amen.
