Tonight,
as I contemplate the conditions that exist in our world, I am
reminded of how really important it is to believe in a living God who
wants to be intimately involved in my life. And, He wants to be
involved in your life in the same way. Actually, He desires to be
involved in every detail of each and every life on the face of the
earth.
Presently,
people are dealing with very difficult situations and circumstances
all over the world. From China to Europe, to North America and all
around the globe, humanity is in a crisis. We have come to a place
where we need to know the solution to our dilemma. We need answers to
stabilize this volatile environment.
I
don’t know how you are feeling right now but I can imagine the
varying levels of fear, confusion, frustration, and helplessness that
many are experiencing. Our future doesn’t appear too promising if
you only look at the current conditions in our world. But there is a
solution to each and every problem that we face. God will make a way!
Jesus Christ is the Way Maker for every person, community and nation
that will call to Him for help!
A
good example recounted in the Bible comes to mind. You find the story
in the book of Jonah about the great city of Nineveh. God was
preparing to destroy the city because of their wickedness. However,
God sent Jonah there to warn them. Jonah went throughout the city,
from one end to the other telling them that God would destroy the
entire city except they repent of their evil ways.
When
the King heard Jonah’s warning he declared a time of prayer. He put
off his royal garments and clothed himself in sackcloth, covered his
head with ashes and knelt before God in repentance. The King led the
way and the whole city repented before the Lord God. God spared the
city!
During
the time of our present crisis our leader, our president has
continued to call us to prayer. Our Christian leaders, Clergy,
Pastors continue to call us to prayer. It is truly time to pray as a
move of God has begun in our praying. We are witnessing believers at
the center of this coronavirus outbreaks and beyond, falling on
their knees, crying out to God for our deliverance. 2 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.”
All
over the world, I believe God is calling upon His people to rise up
in the power and authority of Jesus Christ and declare deliverance in
His Name. The hearts of the fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters are
hearing His call and responding. I hear the sound of a mighty army,
rising and moving in deliberate unison into the battle and ultimately
into deliverance for all who will hear and answer.
God
has brought us to this place to give opportunity for all who will
call upon His Name to be saved. This is the dividing line and all who
have a desire to know God will move toward Him. But, those who don’t
want to have any part with Him will move further into darkness. It’s
time to choose! It’s Time To Pray!
