“ 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..” – 2 Chronicles 7:14
Adrian Rogers said, “I am believing God for a national revival. You know, sometimes we think that it’s just too late and we need to hunker down. That’s what the devil wants us to do.
It’s always too soon to quit. God has sent revival in the darkest days before, and there’s not one shred of Scripture that says we cannot have revival in dark days.
It is not too late for America. And I don’t want you to say, “My country, right or wrong.” No, I want you to get right. One by one, let’s get right with God and then we can say it, sing it, pray it and mean it, “God bless America.” But there’s something more important than America, and it’s the kingdom of God. I’m not interested in making America a better place to go to hell from. People need to be saved.
The best thing you could do would be to lead another person to Jesus Christ. Then you will not just have a better citizen—you’ll have a new creation and a citizen of God’s kingdom! If someone asked you today how to be saved, are you prepared to lead them to Jesus Christ?”
I’m all for doing everything we should to save America, but never at the expense of ignoring the needs of lost souls. I wish Christians were as zealous to spread the gospel as the politicians and their supporters are to get their party in office. The greatest contribution we can make to America is to win a soul to Christ. God brought America to prominence and protected her all these years for this very purpose. If we fail God’s purpose we are no better than Sodom and Gomorrah and can expect a similar fate.
