I Will Restore You
“Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.” - 2 Chronicles 7:14
Today, as we conclude 2 Chronicles 7:14, we will discuss the final thing that God will do when you go to him in prayer, and that is he will restore you. That is what the end of our focal verse promises.
In David and Solomon’s time, one of the consequences from turning away from God was that they would suffer from famine. The Israelites were enamored with false gods to supply their needs, so God had to show them that those false gods would not support them. Once the people repented, God lifted the famine and restored the land.
What God is saying is that all that is lost will be made whole when we turn back to Him. He can give us more than we lost from shattered relationships, lost possessions, lost time, and broken dreams.
As a child of God, the Lord does not want you to stay down. You may stray but remember that our loving God’s wants you to live a full and productive life. Get down, but don’t stay down.
So what are you waiting for? Are you going to the Lord in prayer the way 2 Chronicles instructs you to? If you will, God will hear you. God will forgive you. And God will restore you!
