Gentleness (The Fruit of the Spirit in You)

Gentleness                                                                              Day 83

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 will forgive their sin and heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14

In chemistry, there are formulas. For manuals, there are instructions. In cooking, there are recipes. God also has provided a prescription to help His children guide the world away from sin. Instead of blaming sinners and passing judgment on the lives and lifestyles of others, we can follow God’s instructions from 2 Chronicles 7:14. There He provided steps to bring order to a broken nation.

When we pray and seek God’s face, we are on the way to changing our world. When we turn from our misguided ways and to a godly path, we can help others facing their troubles. God is only waiting to heal our land. However, the first step written in the scripture may be the most difficult, for we must first humble ourselves.

It may take time for us to learn how to humble ourselves before God. It may take time for us to shake away the shackles of pride, but we can learn to pray to, seek for, and turn toward God. The time has come for us to set the stage for God to heal our land. So, let us voluntarily humble ourselves before He allows us to be humbled.
