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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Verse was spoken to Israel...just for clarity.

However I do understand you're position. Yet I see that we ARE fast becoming a Godless nation every day...power/money does rule the day in the halls of Washington and among politicians of our day...just as it did throughout the Roman Empire.

Furthermore our Constitution is being trampled on, ignored, reconfigured and abused... and more like a rumple strip to pass over for those with power/and money/ and influences by.

If the powers that be feared "we the People" we would not be in the straits we see our country in today. Not only do they not fear the people, but we are used as cannon fodder amongst them while they fire their cannons between themselves.

I do not underestimate God's power to intervene in the whiles of men, but I also know He is also a God of Justice and our nation deserves this for how we have misaligned our priorities, allowed and encouraged corruption and all manner of evils in our country... opened our borders for the "hoards" to come in and with them an agenda of their own which is not American, rather serving their own interests and agendas in claiming and/or reclaiming this nation for themselves. While doing so we have our politicians pandering to them for their votes rather than taking firm stands for what is right for this nation.

The ONLY power we have is at the ballot box and we know the corruption there as well, which for that demands whoever we vote for now must be a landslide vote in order to stop the trajectory this nation is on.

We should be seeking Conservative candidates who 'believe' in what you have written...not many running do...rather they too play lip-service to what the people want to hear.

Our sin is not that we have not sought God...it's we've allowed Him to be pushed from the halls , schools, hospitals and every other institution of our great land....when it is we who should have stood at those times....they didn't grab the power...enough of us weren't paying attention while they rolled their people into place to change our laws...instill ridiculous ones..and basically set the parameters of control in place..

Money is not the problem...it's those who weld it for wrongdoing ...and we allow it to continue.

This primary election and vetting of candidates is revealing not just who the candidates are conservative or not, but even who are conservative or not here on FR.

Time will surely tell the whole story...it always does.

WOW! You think God's Way on how to heal one's land is different for other nations? There is only One Way, One Truth, One Life.

but I also know He is also a God of Justice and our nation deserves this for how we have misaligned our priorities, allowed and encouraged corruption and all manner of evils i...

And His wrath is coming for them but not until His Body/Church is taken out first for His children are not subject to His wrath.

The ONLY power we have is at the ballot box

That's a godless statement and being HS filled I would never agree to it!

No it's not. For example, where is the vetting of Mitt or Cain?

Our sin is not that we have not sought God..

Wrong! I'm not agreeing with that either because God reigns in my life, I seek Him for everything. Like I said, His wrath is coming and His children are not subject to it. If you see yourself as part of 'our' so be it. I speak for myself.
