God knows our heart already, but he would love for us to pay attention to him and talk to Him even if He knows already what we want to say. The word, Shamea in Hebrew is mainly used for the word, "hear" in English as well as Azen in Hebrew. When Psalm’s writer used the word, Shamea Azen, Azen, he was pleading to God to listen to him and He hearsd him. God hears our heart. Psalm 39:12 Hear H8085 my prayer, H8605 O LORD, H3068 and give H238 ear H238 to my cry; H7775 Do not be silent at my tears; For I am a stranger with You, A sojourner like all my fathers. Psalm 54:2 Hear H8085 my prayer, H8605 O God; H430 Give H238 ear H238 to the words of my mouth. The word hear in English is used 531times in 494 verses. We want to focus on the word Shamea שָׁמַע today. This word is used in Genesis 58 times, in Deuteronomy 82 times in Psalm 78 times and in Jeremiah 168 times. We can see the importance in hearing from God just by glancing the usage of this word hear. God not only hears us, but commends us to hear Him as well. We will talk about the word, hear in terms of we hear from God. When we see the shamea is used mostly in Jeremiah, we can see God was pleading to Israel to hear what God had to say. I think He is the same way today. God wants us to pay attention to Him today, as He wanted Israel to hear Him back then.May God hear us and grant us ears to hear Him!
