In this lesson we see that the people were not worshipping God with an sincere heart. They opened their mouth to begin to speak worship unto him and with their lips to honor him, but the true spiritual hearts were not connected to the Father. They were worshipping the Father with sense of how men begin to teach them as going through the motion and not being sincere. Because of this, God closed the eyes of the prophets and the seers, who was anointed to tell the people what was coming into their lives and what was going to happen, but because the prophets and the seers begin to act and do the same thing the people were doing, he caused them to be able to use the gifts that he gave them. Their worship became vain and meaningless and the Lord did not accept their worship, because the Lord knows the truth of the heart of man. The Lord said that he would perform miracles and do wonders in the sight of those who were wise and intelligent, and they will see these things, but they will perish, because they will not be able to understand what was going on. The people wanted to offer up worship unto the Lord that came from the creation of man and not from God, the Lord would not accept their worship.

God Bless you
