Unto the lord

When Saul inquired of the Lord, the Lord did not answer him, either by dreams or by Urim or by prophets.

“Will God hear his cry
When distress comes upon him?

“Then they will call on me, but I will not answer;
They will seek me diligently but they will not find me,

“So when you spread out your hands in prayer,

I will hide My eyes from you;

Yes, even though you multiply prayers,
I will not listen.

Your hands are covered with blood.

“Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Do you come to inquire of Me? As I live,” declares the Lord God, “I will not be inquired of by you.”’

Then they will cry out to the Lord,
But He will not answer them.
Instead, He will hide His face from them at that time
Because they have practiced evil deeds.

Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’

Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’
