...if My people, who are called by My name, shall 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.
2 Chronicles 7:14
A nation is a people who share common customs, origins, history, etc. God loves people and He talks about nations all the time in the Bible, there are nations God blesses, there are nations God punishes, there are nations God admires and there are nations that break His heart. God says that if a nation would simply recognize that it is not God and humble itself, He would bless that nation. This lesson can easily be applied to each of us personally. We all have a tendency to think we are more important, independent, powerful and intelligent then we really are and that can get us in trouble. Let’s heed the advice, be humble, recognize that God is God and we are not. Oh, don’t forget to pray for your nation, if it heeds the same advice, God will bless it too.
