today is the national day of prayer - take a few extra moments today to pray for our country!
2 chronicles 7:14 (a threefold promise - following a fourfold command!)
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 sin and will heal their land.
jeremiah 29:11-14
"for i know the plans i have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and i will listen to you. you will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. i will be found by you," declares the Lord...
***many of us are familiar with the first verse here in jeremiah and love to claim that promise of God's wonderful plans for our lives - BUT do we keep reading - do we call and pray and seek (and is our seeking with all our hearts)? could it be that we don't know the plans - cause we aren't going to the master planner for them? He has them - we need to seek HIM!!
