God can heal our land [September 13, 2020]
God can heal our land
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
This is a promise God made to His people, the Israelites and it applies to all Christians as well. Being humble involves putting aside our pride, repenting, fasting, and praying for God to forgive our sins. It also includes having a desire and determination to stay away from sin and asking the Holy Spirit to help us. God says if we all (all Christians) obey the instructions in this verse, He will heal our land.
1 Peter 5:6 says
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.
As we obey the instructions in 2 Chronicles 7:14
we should bear in mind that God will heal our land, in due time (at the appropriate time). Today, determine in your heart that you will humble yourself before God and call on Him to heal our land
God be with you.
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Set time apart from your morning devotion time. It could be once a week or once a month to fast and pray to ask God to heal (improve the economy of your country and the world as a whole).
2. Pray also for God to save the lost and those living in sin.
3. Use every opportunity you get to preach the gospel on social media and as you come into contact with people each day.
4. Study the bible and know what to do and not to do as a Christian.
Prayer
Dear God, I bless and praise your Holy name. Please heal and save our world and give us all a better life. Amen.
