GLOBAL PRAYER INITIATIVE OF HAITIAN CHURCHES

PRAY FOR HAITI DAY 7

GLOBAL PRAYER INITIATIVE OF HAITIAN CHURCHES

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

Jesus’ first command was “Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” Matthew 4:17. If it was high on Jesus' priority list, it should be high on ours. When your conscience tells you that you have sinned, repent immediately.
1) Don’t to hide it. When we hide our sins and transgressions, we allow it to fester and grow. Sin thrives in darkness and in secrecy. Once it is exposed with the light and truth of God’s word it can no longer survive. When you hide your sins you will not prosper. He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28:13. Don’t hide sin, repent from it.
2) Don’t deny your sin. To deny is to declare untrue. When the Spirit of God convicts you about what you are doing; when your conscious bothers you; when a person or a group of people tell you what you are doing is wrong and when the word of God say it’s wrong, chances are they are right and you are wrong. Don’t deny it. Agree with them and repent.
Tomorrow we will look at some of the other points. As you pray, examine your heart to see if you are practicing any of the above points, if so, repent. If we are going to engage in spiritual battle for Haiti, we must be prepared. Repenting prepares us.

With U4 Him
