National Day of Prayer

Are you concerned about the direction the country is going? Are you praying for it's leaders like you have been commanded? Are you aware that we as Christians determine how things change in the days ahead? The responsibility is put on us in II Chronicles 7:14 "If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways; then I (God) will hear from Heaven, I will forgive their sin and heal their land." Again, we determine what happens in the days ahead based on obedience to these words. What do I mean by this? I believe the Lord has allowed the apathy of many in the body of Christ to cause a lack of progress in seeing the Kingdom of Heaven manifested here in America. I'm not saying that the Lord is not doing wonderful things for us; but watching the family disintegrate in many cases, seeing the definition of marriage being challenged by "man's opinions" of what is acceptable as an absolute equal to God's design and finally seeing many churches in America rejecting God's Word as out dated and rigid for today's world must be challenged by us sitting in the pews. The "world" is not responsible for seeing this changed, we in the body of Christ are and we will be held accountable for this. On this National Day of Prayer in the U.S., I ask us all to do what we have been commanded to do. Seek God in repentance, repent for America, call on God for wisdom, guidance and courage to obey Him everyday. It is not too late for us but we need to start today on this National Day of Prayer!
