Hi LORD!

A dear friend sent the greeting below in an email today:

While I agree with the majority of the things in the note above, I am not so sure that there are more of us who want the LORD in our lives than those who do not. When a majority of Mississippi voters decide that "choice" is more important than children, I cannot believe that people who truly believe in the God of the Bible are in the majority. When we celebrate, condone, and/or excuse adultery, fornication, and other various perversions that He calls evil, we cannot expect that He will turn a blind eye. When we say that it is ok for same-sex couples to marry under the sanctions and blessings of our government, we are in open defiance of the LORD. When we as a nation embrace the notion of sodomites serving in our military, we are clearly a stench in the nostrils of The Most Holy God. When we consume more than we produce and thus incurr tremendous amounts of debt, we are deceived and lost. When we allow our children to be taught that things God says are wrong are right, and things God says are right are wrong, we have turned our backs on Him and are inviting judgment. The once-great U.S.A. has become Sodom and Gomorrah, and is deserving of God's righteous wrath.



We as a nation do not deserve the LORD's blessings, but his curses. When we bless what He curses, how can we ask Him to bless us?



So the question is, how do we turn this around? Let's see what the LORD says about it...



"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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." - 2 Chronicles 7:14



If we want our nation to be healed and once again enjoy God's blessings, we must as a nation humble ourselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from our wicked ways. Only then will He hear from heaven, forgive our sin, and heal our land.
