Proverbs 28:9 ESV
If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,
even his prayer is an abomination.
In this verse, God asserts the importance of learning and following His law. If one refuses to learn or follow the law, even his prayer is abhor to God.
But often we learn & follow human teaching on God's laws and commandments. While the teachers have good intention, to err is human, and they tend to add new laws, omit some commandments, focus on the visible practices, while neglecting the important yet invisible parts... So we need to read, learn, meditate, and read commentaries on God's word regularly ourselves to decide for us what important to follow.
.... Take responsibility and think for ourselves.
