Changing America

During the presidential elections we were promised a change. And yes there has been changes alright. I am trying to be fair in my judgment but I don't see any of those changes being good for America. But we as Christians don't have to feel helpless as to helping change America for the good of everyone. God has given us His people a way to change our nation for the good of everyone. God says in 2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)

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 will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Here we have God's formula for His blessings to come upon us again. First He says we have to get rid of our pride. We must humble ourselves. He is not speaking to sinners but to us His people. We as Christians have become to proud of ourselves rather than proud of God. We think we know what is best. If we didn't think this then we would be on our knees asking God to turn this nation around. Let me ask you, how much have you been earnestly praying for this nation rather than just complaining about it? What are we waiting for? God is ready to help but we must ask. James 4:2-3 (NKJV)

2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask.
3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. The bible says in 2 Chronicles 7:14 that we must pray and seek His face. Seeking God's face is more than just an occasional God bless America. Seeking means we search and search for His will earnestly. Every day we continue to look for Him through prayer. Then that scripture tells us we must turn from our wicked ways. We are to turn from those things that we know in our hearts that are not right. We must make bible reading a priority in our lives. Prayer is essential every day. When we earnestly pray we are seeking His face. Pastor John Hagee is asking people to join him and his church as they begin 40 days of prayer for our nation beginning on September 20th- October 30th. Will you be one of those who will take the time to pray for this beloved nation of ours? I pray that you will. I am going to be one that will. We have got to begin to do what God is telling us if we want God to turn this nation around and if we want protection from attacks of the enemy. God has promised in His word that He will forgive our sins and hear from heaven and will heal our land. Let's believe Him. If we God's people do not act now it will be to late for this nation to change and much trouble is on the way AND IT WILL BE OUR FAULT. Begin today praying as God told us to do. God bless our efforts and may He give us the grace to carry it out. Thank all of you that will respond. Remember, you are important to God and His efforts to save America.
