Answer:
We kicked Him out.
Remember?
Remember all you people who want to blame Him for not helping us.
Oh Father God, One Who hangs the stars, sets boundaries for the seas, and sculpts the mountains. Heavenly Father, Creator of all heaven and earth, Your majesty is beyond our comprehension, yet You attend to every detail of our lives, even numbering the hairs on our heads.
Father God, we praise You. May we serve You forever.
Father God, we lift up all those in Texas and Louisiana who are recovering from hurricane Harvey. Lord, we lift up those on the east coast who are threatened by hurricane Irma. Father God, we lift up the northwestern states consumed by forest fires.
2 Chronicles 7:14
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and heal their land.
Father God, we ask that this administration be given opportunity to lead our nation back into Your fold. We ask that we return to the rule of law, be governed by Your divine precepts, and that we would once more be that light on a hill.
As a nation, may we repent and seek Your face. As individuals, give us opportunity to minister to those who do not know You. Give us wisdom and love to break through their hardened hearts.
We ask these things in Jesus name
