—2 Chronicles 7:12-16
by: Jasmine Lynch.
We serve a loving God who disciplines His children to stop them from doing evil. He states His expectations, giving specific instructions and making clear the consequences of disobedience. Israel understood that bad things happened because they failed to keep their part of the covenant. A hurricane that leaves hundreds dead and thousands homeless or a wild fire that destroys thousands of acres and structures and many lives may or may not represent God’s judgment. But we should always hear Him calling us to repentance. Do we ask Him to forgive us and to heal our land?
