The Grands Letter (GLJ)
Gene L. Jeffries, Th.D. on September 16, 2016 7:39 am (CST)Dear Grands,
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.”
This is a principle originally given to the Jewish people, but
applicable to Gentiles as well. We are called “Christians” because
we believe in Jesus Christ and have accepted Him as LORD and
Savior. Humility is the denial of power within ourselves. Prayer
is the acknowledgment of dependence upon the LORD. Seeking
His face is willingness to do His will whatever it is. Turning from
wickedness means divesting ourselves of all known evil, however
small and insignificant it might seem. His promise is to hear our
prayers, forgive our sins, and bring healing to our nation. But, it’s
all conditioned on that little word, “if.” We must not point the
finger at others; we must apply His conditions to ourselves. Only
then will His formula work; only then will God bless America.
We love you each and every one,
Nana & Dado III
