Romans 11: 7-10
7 So this is the situation: Most of the people of Israel have not found the favor of God they are looking for so earnestly. A few have—the ones God has chosen—but the hearts of the rest were hardened. 8 As the Scriptures say,
“God has put them into a deep sleep.
To this day he has shut their eyes so they do not see,
and closed their ears so they do not hear.”
9 Likewise, David said,
“Let their bountiful table become a snare,
a trap that makes them think all is well.
Let their blessings cause them to stumble,
and let them get what they deserve.
10 Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see,
and let their backs be bent forever.”

SHOW NOTES
Dave recalls a recording of a call he and Steve had in February 2020. In this call Dave had a revelation in response to Bible Project Video called Tree of Life (https://youtu.be/TJLan-pJzfQ). He realized that in order to live for Christ he needs to die to the world. The only problem was... He did not know if he was willing to give up his flesh for the relationship with God.
It's like a man, with a VHS rental store, choosing not to follow Christ because doing so would get in the way of renting adult movies. The value differential to an objective observer is so great it's absurd.
Anything we would put in front of God would be considered worthless when compared to God.
We need to make ourselves available to God!
What are you doing to avail yourself to God?
Be open to God using you.
Try something Different.

If Dave hadn't chosen to live for Christ in February, God may have allowed Dave's heart to be hardened.
