Glorious In America... part 2
It is so scary to see all the things going on right now in America. When i rarely do watch the news all i see are things about the stock market or murders or bombings or all these things that are stressing us. Then i don't even have to mention the elections. It is so clear how much we need to cry out to God right now. I am speaking for myself when i say that I call myself a christian and have not been caring about the world God has graciously givin us to live in. I know that i need to speak up in prayer to cry out for our country. If I really do want this to be the land of the free I need to go out and minister and comfort those hurting. I need to be praying for God to send his holy spirit down on us and fill us. I need to be praying for him to take us on the right path and to lead us. I know God can save a dying nation look what he did with the Isrealites.

So now, our God, listen to the prayer of Your servant and to his supplications, and for Your sake, O Lord, let Your face shine on Your desolate sanctuary.
O my God, incline Your ear and hear! Open Your eyes and see our desolations and the city which is called by Your name; for we are not presenting our supplications before You on account of any merits of our own, but on account of Your great compassion.
O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and take action! For Your own sake, O my God, do not delay, because Your city and Your people are called by Your name.
Daniel 9:17-19 NASB
God turned me to this scripture while I was crying out in intercesion for our nation. I believe that if we truely pour our hearts out to God like Daniel did for his people in Daniel 9, our God will show us His mercy, and deliver us from the wrath we deserve. Where else can we turn, but to the rightous judge, who else will show mercy on us, but He who is Love!
