How To Get God To Listen

“Therefore it happened, that just as He proclaimed and they would not hear, so they called out and I would not listen,” says the LORD of hosts." (Zech. 7: 13 nkjv)

Recently I wrote on how James said "draw near to God and he will draw near to you" from James 4: 8 (See here) The above text is similar. It says that if you want God to hear or listen to you, then make sure you are hearing and listening to him. Does God seem to be ignoring you? Maybe it is because you are ignoring him. Have you thought about that?
