GOD HEAL OUR LAND

Out Of The Valley

Scott Young.com – Pastor of Hope

2 Chronicles 7:14 - 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 sins and heal their land.

1. We Must Confess With Humility

James 4:6 - God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Proverbs 28:13 - If you hide your sins, you will not succeed. But if you confess and reject them, you will receive mercy.

James 5:16 - Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.

2. We Must Pray With Tenacity

Colossians 4:2 - Be earnest and unwearied and steadfast in your prayer, being alert and intent in your praying with thanksgiving. 

Ephesians 6:18 - Pray in the Spirit at ALL times with ALL kinds of prayers, asking for ALL you need. To do this you must ALWAYS be ready and never give up! ALWAYS pray for ALL God's people.

3. We Must Seek God With Intensity

Hebrews 11:6 - God rewards those who earnestly seek him. 

Matthew 6:33 - Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 

Deuteronomy 4:29 - If you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with. [30] When you are in distress and all these things have happened to you, then in later days you will return to the LORD your God and obey him. [31] For the LORD your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you.

4. We Must Repent With Sincerity

2 Timothy 3:1 - You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. [2] For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. [3] They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. [4] They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. [5] They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!

Acts 3:19 - Repent and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, so that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.
