Day 2 Continues...
2. Through Prayer, we restrain evil.
This is so important. I was sharing with you about what happened in the days of David. There was Famine for 3 years and David consulted with the Lord to know why. Three years is a long time to get an answer.
They were going through it because of Saul and his bloody house. The nation went through this terrible thing because of the actions of their leader. It became a corporate sin.
You see why we have to pray for our cities and nations. Because there are certain things that some individuals may do that will be disastrous. That's why we must intercede. E. G. When you observe too many deaths in an area. It's a spiritual, not economical.
Saul had done something terrible. He killed those he should not have killed.
Another thing was when David numbered Israel
He didn't know the significance.. and God gave him punishment options.
70,000 men were slain and the angel was still ready to kill more. David had to plead with God in prayer and was guided to offer a sacrifice.
Next, there is Sin by Association.
Matt 23:29-38
Jesus was taking to scribes and pharisees calling them hypocrites.
They didn't know it was significant to say "if we were in our Fathers days, we would not have killed the prophets". You have to understand the context of your nationality.
You are first a Christian, before a Nigerian.
Of you have it that way, you become a partaker of the sins of the nation.
V33: these were hot words from Jesus. He called the Vipers
V38- This was one of the most painful experiences of the Lord Jesus
V39 Jesus was in the temple grounds when he said these things
24:1
Hosea 5:15....When Jesus walked out of the Temple that day, he said he wasn't coming back until he was acknowledged. He prophesied that afflictions were coming.
Hosea 6:1-2
After 2 days...
They didn't know when he walked out of that place, it would take 2000 years for him to come back.
The Lord has given us, not only his spirit but his ministry, to seek and save that which was lost.
He sent us as sheep in the midst of wolves.
The Lord is gracious, kind,holy.
Believe in him with all of your heart
The nations belong to him and all of us are the works of his hands.
