Pray4America (part 19) - II Chronicles 7:14

 

Tea Party/wikipedia

Ten years ago, movements from the left and the right, such as the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street , emerged from discontent of the power of the few over the values of the many.

The song below, I am America, reflect some the zeitgeist of the times as well as today:

As our problems seem overwhelming, the song lyrics suggest the one hope to heal our land:

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 will hear from heaven, 

and I will forgive their sin 

and will heal their land.

----------

Give thanks to the Lord,
for He is good;
His love endures forever.

Psalm 118:1 (NIV)

Keep praying for America

Pray4America (part 20) - Australia still has our back!

kangaroo/wikipedia.com

Anne Graham Lotz, the chairperson of the National Day of Prayer, invites us to pray for the healing of America on May 4th, 2017.

(reference: https://youtu.be/kaYmQzDCOqY )

And one of the themes  comes from from Daniel 9:19

Lord, listen! 

Lord, forgive!

Lord, hear and act! 

For Your sake, my God, do not delay,

 because Your city and 

Your people bear your Name.

And down under, in Australia, Warwick March announced their National Day of Prayer and Fasting team has set aside  this April 30 - May 4. 2017, to intercede for America.

And they continue with the theme, 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 will hear from heaven, 

and I will forgive their sin and 

will heal their land.

For we have this promise...

Therefore confess your sins to each other 

and pray for each other 

so that you may be healed. 

The prayer of a righteous person 

is powerful and effective.

James 5:16 (NIV)

God bless Australia!

And God bless America!
