"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." 2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV
God is calling the nations to prayer. He is shaking Christians up all over the world, to take notice of His Word. It is vital that we respond, this is not a game. Christianity is a way of life, not a club. A prayer meeting is a war office where we do battle in the heavenlies.
The world as we know it is crumbling and it has little to do with Global Warming/Climate Change. The cause is man's sin. We are living in a world of decay. Look around and check out what is happening in the media. Everyday, there is some type of disaster somewhere. 'Well, it's always been like that'. Well, something should have been done about it at the time.
Values have slipped to an all-time low. There is little respect or love. We have murders, stabbings, terrorism, rapes, and abuse covering all categories. Many schools are not allowed to speak about Jesus anymore, or say The Lord's Prayer. We're living in a time when future generations will not have heard about this prayer at all. There is greed, envy, covetousness, homosexuality, same-sex marriages and abortion. As a Christian, can't you guess who is behind all of this? That's right, it's the devil and he will continue to rule over this until we - God's people, who are called by His name, will humble ourselves and pray. If we're called by His name, let's live up to it. We need to seek His face - His presence and turn from our own wicked ways - and we have them, and pray. When we do, God will hear and heal.
We should be concerned about our world - Climate Change and the threat of terrible floods. But, let us remember we have a promise from God; He will never flood the earth again (Genesis 9:8-17). The greatest urgency is what is happening with mankind in our world? Some influential, Christian leaders want to bring the bible up to date, which would allow for same-sex marriage, gay rites and everything else that goes along with it. "For a time will come, when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers 14 and they will turn their ears away from the truth -' (2 Timothy 4:3-4).
The bible can't be re-written to fit in with the trends of today. God's Word is the truth and we need to ensure it stays that way. Jesus is coming soon; when, we don't know? But with the advanced world decay, we need to be getting ready and refusing to accept anything other than God's truth. Let us not compromise!
