God says, "If 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." (2 Chron. 7:14 KJV)

Notice that this promise does NOT say: "if the government leaders", or "if the world's royalty", or "if any dictatorship", or ANY kind of secular group or leadership of any kind! It says, "If my people which are called by my name" will humble themselves and pray!

 Remember this!

This promise is especially important to remember during this political season when the media (including social media) is alive with so much angst from every possible direction regarding what will happen if the "wrong" person or "wrong" side of the aisle gets into office. And yes, it's very important to vote. But, don't lose site that the REAL answer about how to "heal the land" is not about politics but is about what God's people does!

Here it is spelled out simply

Who and what:

1 - if my people, which are called by my name

2 - will humble themselves

3 - and pray

What God promises:

1 - I will hear from heaven

2 - I will forgive their sin

3 - and heal their land
