II CHRONICLES 7:14

Hi.I believe you are fine and your trust is in The Lord Jesus.The verse above is very profound and I would like us to take a look at it closely.It saith:If my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray;and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways;then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sins and heal their land.
1.my people
You must be a child of God for Him to hear and answer your prayers.And you become a child of God by giving your life to Jesus for Him to become The Lord and The Saviour of your life.
2.Humble yourself
For us to be able to stand before God and present our requests to Him in prayer,we must become nothing so that He can become something in us.He must increase and we must decrease before Him.We must allow Him to rule and reign in our lives.We must give Him the first priority in all our endeavors.
3.Pray
You must now present your requests to God in prayer=talking to God and Him talking to you.He calls us to speak to Him and He promises to hear us and answer our prayers=Jer.33:3.
4.Seek His face
Seeking The face of God is prayer and some more efforts added.What this means is you set some time and you truly concetrate on what you are doing.This is where prayer and fasting comes in.
5.Turn from our wicked ways
This basically is to repent.I John.1:9.
6.I will hear from Heaven
When you truly humble yourself before God and you repent(turn away from one direction and start a new move:leave your wicked ways and start following Jesus) He will surely hear you.
7.Forgive your sins
When you repent God will surely forgive you.He cannot despise a contrite and a broken heart.
8.Heal your land
He will now heal you and deliver you from every manner of trouble.
Our God is ready to help us and to turn our lives around through His Mighty outstretched arm.Its us who must turn to Him in prayer as even this Scripture tells us.May God Bless you and visit you at the very point of your need in Jesus Glorious Name.
