Is it now uninhabitable?
Jeremiah 17:10Please pray with me:
I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
Father, You search our hearts. You test our minds and You know all there is about us. How can we do other than stand in fear?
What do You see when You test our minds? What is it like for You to search the hearts of this nation? When You test our minds, how do we respond?
Surely it must grieve You. Father, Our nation...are we now reprobate in our thinking? We despise what You love: righteousness. We deem ourselves able to establish righteousness and we execute our judgement, instead of Yours.
We pronounce our wisdom to be greater than Yours. We raise ourselves and our discernment to be righteousness.
We engage in every folly and we stand back in joyful pride. We, as a nation, have declared ourselves god. How can we, as a nation, repent? Is it possible?
You give every person according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings. ...What is our fruit, O Lord? What have we done?
Surely the ways of this nation have become wicked and the fruit of our doings are full of blaspheme and all that You abhor. Is there to be a harvest here? ...or must this nation burn?
Your people wait on You, O Lord —do not tarry. Have mercy on us. Give us Your heart for those who serve You. Encamp around us that we may keep our hearts and minds aligned with Your will.
O Holy Spirit, cause the Light of Christ to shine bright to all who would see and desire. May we be impermeable testimonies of Your Truth, Your love and Your care. Embrace us with Your presence and comfort us as we see the vileness of this land.
Hold our testimonies of Christ strong and fill our mouth with life-giving words for those who might hear and turn to You.
Up gird us to endure faithfully to the end. Help us, that we may stand strong and that we may be found faithful in the day of His coming.
In Jesus’ Name.
