Turn

II Chronicles 7:14
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.

This scripture cannot be quoted enough considering the times we are living in. Most often we miss who this message is directed towards, Believers. The Lord clearly states, "my people." As we read we come to understand that there must be some wickedness and sin among believers. The all loving, enduring mercy having, true and living God gives us a way to come out of all this. He advises us to pray. Communicate with Him. When we do this the Holy Spirit will begin to humble our heart so that we can "turn" from all the wickedness and sin among us. God is forever trying to bring us closer to Him. His desire is for us to share our daily lives and concerns with Him. He will never become tired of us if we seek Him from a sincere heart.

I would like to encourage you all to pray. It is such an awesome activity. Just think about it, in prayer you have God all to yourself. The God of the universe who never slumbers or sleeps is listening to you at that very moment and He will answer! Oh what an awesome God! Never let the enemy make you believe that God does not hear you or doesn't care. God is the one who told us to, "pray without ceasing.">> I Thessalonians 5:17 So obey Him and TURN and pray! Turn from all the cares of this world that are pulling in every direction. Turn from FB and Twitter. Turn and PRAY!

Turn to Jesus...

It really must've been meant for me to click onto your blog at this particular moment, because this post speaks to my heart on many many levels.

I couldn't even begin to express.

"My people" speaks volumes.

Stimulating read. Enjoyed.
