PRAYER CHANGES HISTORY AND THE CHURCH CAN DETERMINES THE LIFE OF A NATION
Jeremias 10:23
"Lord, I know that man does not own his life, that he has no control over his destiny."
(DHH)
Man can act as far as God allows it since He is sovereign and does as He wants, in this situation science and earthly power is nothing before God
It has been shown that man cannot control our destiny by way of example I quote what is currently happening in the world and that man has not been able to control "covid19" a tiny and invisible virus that has paralyzed the world
History shows us that God designed the world but fools do not want to assume it although today many have recognized it because man up to now has been unable to do anything to control everything, absolutely everything, has escaped from his hands he has not been able to control it science nor the power of money which means that there is something more powerful than science earthly power and money
In this sense, there is currently only one power that can change this story, and that is the power of prayer
+9The church in Africa started a great intercession movement let me take just one example, Uganda: average life in Uganda, 45 years imagine this in the world in general we are around more than 80 years and in Uganda only 45 out of three in Uganda 33% of the population is sick with AIDS
The church started a huge movement of intercession and 10 years later, not 50 years later, 33% of AIDS sufferers dropped to a 10% quote.
This means that the only way of redemption is the attitude that the church has towards the situation because biblically the church determines the life of a nation if it acts correctly as the Bible establishes, if it uses prayer as a tool to cry out to God
Look how the Bible says!
2 Chronicles 7:14 King James Version (RVR1960)
14 if my people, upon whom my name is called, humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive your sins, and heal your land.
(Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)
This verse exposes the requirements that the Christian who believes in God needs to receive the blessings through prayer, if the people of God humble themselves and seek his face in prayer, the Lord will listen, forgive and heal our land.
It is clear that we Christians can determine the life of a nation not with our strength or with our money or with our knowledge, it is with the word of God humiliating us seeking the face of God separating us from our sins so that God can act.
In this way we can see the power of God manifest in our nation since when God's people pray miracles occur and God changes history, because He is a specialist in changing times and doing something out of nothing, our God is wonderful!
God carries out his sovereign purposes in concert with the prayers of his children and the word of God is clear when he affirms that everyone whose heart is totally dedicated to God receives his blessings everyone who humbles himself before the presence of God and recognizes that prayer is a source of power to knock down any storm will receive an answer from God, history has not shown them and God remains the same as yesterday
God continues to act as He did in ancient times because He does not change God is unchangeable and His promises are forever
The Bible and history show us that men changed history through faith and prayer, among them are mentioned: Carlos Finney, John Wesley, George Whitefield, Girolamo or Jerónimo Savonarola, Martín Lutero, Enrique Martyn among others I urge you to read the history of these men and how their faith influenced history; as well as biblical and faith men such as: Abraham, Josue, Jose David Ruth, Gideon, Elias ... because these men really changed stories and they did it through prayer fulfilling the requirements established by God
You and I can do it too. How? Through prayer
WITH LOTS OF LOVE!
MOTHER OF THE CROWDS
Over and over again, God has proven to mankind that prayer brings solutions and not the scientific knowledge and you've given a good example with this pandemic. Prayer has work in the past, still works and will always do. All we need to do as the scripture said is to humble ourselves
Nice write up. A godly nations moves God and prayerful movement can change and turn things arround from bad to Good
It is the Lord who chooses leaders and when the righteous is in power, the nation thrives.
