Prayer for a Nation Must Begin with Confession of Sin
January 9, 2021
Today, we as a nation are not acknowledging our great sins as a people. That's our problem. God sends his warning judgments against us in different ways and we don't recognize them as calling us to repent of our sins. Our forefathers recognized their dependence upon God and when they saw his displeasure with them, they confessed their sins and repented. We can learn from them!

We hear very little about conviction of sin in our churches today. Preachers don't preach on such topics. Yet, this is the problem with our society. We are sinners and don't realize it. We think we are righteous but we need to know that we are not. We are sinners and our sins come up before God everyday and they stink in his nostrils. That's what we as a society need to realize. Our greatest need as a nation is to know that we are sinners. We need to be humbled to realize our great need. Otherwise, we will never seek the remedy for our sickness as a people.

The Bible is clear. There will be a resurrection day. We will inherit a new heaven and a new earth. That's God's promise to His people. That's something that we as Christians can all look forward to. There is going to be a judgment day, but we look beyond that judgment day to an eternal kingdom.

We are living in a place of temporariness. We are living in a place where suffering occurs. We are living in a place where death is commonplace. This life is only a shadow. It can't be the reality. The reality is yet to come and its glory cannot be compared to this life. We must not set our hearts on this life alone. If we do, we will be disappointed and sad because what this life has will not last. We all live in the Shadowlands. We cannot escape the Shadowlands. We will all pass through them. Yet, if we know Christ, there is a glory yet to revealed on the other side. We look forward to that future glory.

God has visited us from Heaven. God has visited this world and everybody needs to know about it. We should not be hiding Christmas but we should be declaring it to all. "God has visited us and you need to know about it." That's our message. No amount of political correctness should silence that message. Christmas is a time to tell everybody about that visit from Heaven. We need to shout it from the mountain tops and declare it everywhere. "God has visited us and you need to know about it." Don't hide Christmas. Declare it to the whole nation.

Where is the powerful preaching of the Word and people coming under great conviction and turning to the Lord in great numbers? That's what happens in times of true revival. Haggai preached with great power and fear came upon the people for he was sent from God with the message of God for the people. Today, we need God's message and God's messenger to come upon us in mighty power.

God is able to give a new heart to know Him. What we need to be praying for as a nation today is not a better economy. What we need to be praying for as a people is that God would change our hearts to know and honor Him. Once that happens the economy will get better as God once again blesses us as a people. We cannot expect God's blessing upon a people who continually dishonor and rebel against Him. We as a people need a new heart.

Our nation has a rich heritage in our Pilgrim forefathers. Yet, we are deserting that heritage with reckless speed. We need to slow down and turn back to where we came from - see what our foundations were.

This nation is not exempt from perishing. No nation that forsakes God will long survive. Our only hope is a national spiritual revival. Our nation has been in a state of moral and spiritual decline before and God sent great revivals to bring it back. He can do it again and we pray that He will.

Today, powerful preaching has been put aside for lectures and talks from the pulpit. Powerful preachers are few and far between. There is a drought of the Word of God in the land. When the Holy Spirit comes in power, powerful preaching will return. When the Holy Spirit returns in power, God will raise up powerful preachers to call this nation to repentance. May the Lord raise up another George Whitefield to set this nation on fire and bring it to its knees by the power of the Holy Spirit.

What we need today is the powerful preaching of the cross of Christ proclaimed from pulpits all over the land. People need to know that they are sinners and that the only remedy for their sin is the cross of Christ. That message should be in the forefront in every pulpit in the land.
