Morning Moment of Prayer...
Dear Heavenly Father...This morning, as I celebrate July 4th in my home nation, I recognize, as I read Your Word, that You are calling Your church to repent (change the way we think) and turn from our wicked ways. You have required that of me and all who love You. You are not asking the unbelieving to repent, but You have spoken to believers. Please forgive us, Lord, of anger, fear, impatience, hostility, intolerance, and injustice, when we have turned from Your unconditional love for ALL people, as demonstrated on the cross. May humility, kindness, and generosity reach many for Your kingdom—the only kingdom that matters and the only kingdom that is great. In the Name of the One Who Alone Rules and Reigns, King Jesus. Amen!
...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
