I bet there isn't one person who isn't praying for change in this nation. Well, maybe not everyone is praying, but you certainly are hoping for change. Our hope should be only in the Lord Jesus Christ. Not in any man. God is after His glory. There is a condition in God's Word for Him to intervene. That condition is put on the church. The people of "The Way". That is followers of Christ. Who He Himself says that He is the way, the truth, and the life, John 14:6. 

2 Chronicles 7:14, "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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place." .. 

Seek His face. But many want to take God out of everything. Oh, and don't mention the name Jesus Christ because someone might be offended. Too bad. I'm offended by all the garbage that is being allowed. I've got grandchildren and nieces and nephews and I care about their future. 

We the church, should be on bended knees, with our hands lifted high telling God how much we need Him to Intervene in this mess that we are a part of because we are half stepping. He wants both feet in. Not showing partiality in the matters of the law, Malachi 2:9, and not a lukewarm Christian, Revelation 3:15-16. Malachi 3:7 He tells us,  "Ever since the time of your forefathers, you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me and I will return to you, says the LORD Almighty.".. I'm so glad God doesn't leave us guessing with what He wants from His people who follow Him. But if you're not in the Word you will just continue with what you think is right. We are supposed to think like Christ, and He says in His word that we have the mind of Christ,1 Corinthians 2:16.

Worldly people do what they do. Those things shouldn't surprise us. But when people can't tell the difference between Christ's followers and the world, there's a problem. We have been set apart to be the salt and the light of this world. Love on people, but love them with the truth. It's the truth that sets a person free, John 8:32.

For Your Glory alone LORD
