The answer is spiritual not political
“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.” (2 Chron. 7:14)
It's not about secular leadership!
This verse says it very clearly. It says “if my people.” It doesn't say, “if the president of the USA” or “if the Kings or Queens of the world,” or “if the combined world leadership.” No! It says, “if God’s people, who are called by His Name” will do certain things, then God will do certain things.
What “God's people who are called by His Name” must do:
• Humble themselves
• Pray
• Seek His Face
• Turn from their wicked ways
How God promises to respond:
• Hewill hear from Heaven
• He will forgive their sin
• He will heal their land
Therefore, the real answer to the wickedness in our land is not political, it's spiritual! It's up to God’s people to wake up and respond according to His Word!
