Ezekiel 22.30 observes that God looked for a man who would repair the wall and stand in the gap. images

God explained to His prophet Ezekiel the many charges He had against His people, particularly His leaders in Jerusalem, which was the cause for His punishment by destruction of that city.

Yet God was willing to forgo His wrath if He could find even a few people who sought Him earnestly, who worked for Him diligently and who prayed continuously for the restoration of Israel: but God found no such people.

The sins of America are numerous: divorce, pornography, murder, stealing, lying, greed, all abound.

Who are the people seeking God, working to disciple the Church and praying in intercession for this land?

America is struggling within, its moral character is weak, the Church is its only hope but it must stand with God and not men.

The Church must call the nation to repentance beginning with its own people who are likewise mired in the sins of the world. The Church must discipline then disciple its own before it begins calling the rest of the nation to repentance.

God always looks for a way to demonstrate mercy to His people and this way comes through His people who love God by living in obedience to His commands and interceding for the people around them.

Who today are those Church members striving for obedience, urging their fellow believers to surrender fully to the Lordship of Jesus and praying earnestly for God’s mercy upon this land?

Every Christian has an opportunity to love God through personal service, to know God through prayer and the Scriptures but who is doing such things?
