Please note that God is speaking not to the local yocals, nor to anyone and everyone. He is speaking only to His Church. He is speaking to “MY people”, who are called by “MY NAME”.
When the Church is fallen, just as Israel fell and were scattered, this is the command of God to HIS PEOPLE, and no one else.
There is simply no greater prayer for a nation. Look at the shape the Church is in.. Yes, I speak as a Catholic. But, I’m just sayin’.
