Psalms 34:4, I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Such beautiful words spoken from the heart. If only, we as God’s children would seek Him, so He can deliver us in this time of trouble.
The Lord our God says in 2 Chronicles 7:13-14, If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; 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 will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Our land needs healing and we desperately need healing ourselves. Look around and see the great need for God’s people to draw close to Him. Do we serve a God that can deliver us or is He helpless to feel our pain?
If we serve a God that can deliver us then why isn’t he doing so? Prayer lists continue to increase.
So, it comes down to the word of the Lord given to Isaiah in 1:4, "Oh, you sinful nation! You people burdened down by iniquity! You offspring of those who keep practicing what is evil! You children who corrupt whatever they do! "They've abandoned the LORD; they've despised the Holy One of Israel; in their estrangement, they've walked away from me.
David said in Psalms 37:25, I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
