Is it too late to heal our land?

As I was reading through some comments on a news article a commenter posted the verse from 2 Chronicles 7:14 and someone responded to her comment and said something along the lines of, "It's too late for that. It's impossible to get everyone in the country on the same page."

So I went and read the verse and prayed about it and the part of that verse that stayed with me was "MY PEOPLE"

"...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 will heal their land." (Emphasis mine)

We don't need the entire country to become Christians for God to hear our prayers and heal our land. We know, and God knows, that isn't realistic because there will always be unbelievers among us. There will always be people here who hate God. 

We just need to get HIS PEOPLE on the same page. HIS people need to humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways, seek His face, pray, pray, pray...and He will heal our land. 

Are you counted among HIS PEOPLE? Are you willing to gather with others who call themselves Children of God, to pray, to humble yourself? Are you willing to turn from your wicked ways? We all have them...lying, gossiping, adultery, sex outside marriage, alcohol, drugs, porn, hatefulness, racism, pride...just a few among the many sin strongholds that are common in today's church. Are you willing to shake those things off and turn back to God 100%? 

If HIS PEOPLE are willing to turn back to Him, to pray and seek forgiveness, to shed the wickedness we participate in...He will heal our land. It's a promise. That verse doesn't say maybe or might, or He'll think about it. He says I WILL. 

I'm willing. I'm ready to see this country turn back to Him. I'm ready to see a revival in this land, the likes of which has never been seen before. I'm ready to see people turn their lives around and give them to Jesus. Who's with me?
