"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) God has already done His part in dealing with the sin problem. It is now up to us to do our part. The question is, do we really want to? The appeal of sin is like a luscious red apple that appears beautiful on the outside but once bitten, we discover it is rotten to the core on the inside. It is hard to turn from something we really want, but turn we must!
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for doing your part in dealing with the sin problem. Help us now to do our part and turn from our sins so that you can heal our land. Amen!
James 1:12-16. . . . And remember, when someone wants to do wrong it is never God who is tempting him, for God never wants to do wrong and never tempts anyone else to do it. Temptation is the pull of man's own evil thoughts and wishes. These evil thoughts lead to evil actions and afterwards to the death penalty from God. 16 So don't be misled, dear brothers. TLB
