“Begin with me!”
God says…
NASB 2 Chronicles 7:13 “If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people… ”
God’s power is seen, many times, in the forces of nature. He may well use the natural events for His purposes. But not all forces of nature are used by God for a specific purpose.
God’s provision for His people to cry out to Him is a blessing to us.
God’s presence is for all who turn to Him in repentance – yielding to Him and His right assessment of needing forgiveness from doing evil, those sinful actions against others and most importantly against Him.
God the Great Physician
hears petitions of repentance
forgives confessed sin, personal sins
heals their land
Personal repentance of God’s people.
Personal forgiveness given by God for His people.
Patriotism for one’s country – God heals a country based on God’s people seeking Him, yielding to Him.
NASB 2 Chronicles 7:14 “and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
~ Take it to heart ~
Revival begins with me — with you.
Personal repentance — by God’s people.
Personal forgiveness — given to God’s people.
Patriotism — for one’s country.
“O LORD God of the Holy Bible, begin the healing with me!”
