Last night while in the prayer room, we were singing a song with the lyrics “You have vested in me the authority to determine a nation’s destiny, we humble ourselves and pray and we turn from our wicked ways, come and heal our land”
Each time we sing this song, the atmosphere of the room changes. Suddenly we get connected with the reality of prayer. Prayer is the government of God. In the humility of God, He chooses weak and broken people to partner with His purposes in the earth. God will do more if we ask.
I was thinking of Moses’ intercession on behalf of Israel. In Exodus 32.11-14, God was so angry with Israel. Moses cried out to God, on behalf of Israel, reminding Him of His promise to make a great nation of Israel. God heeded the cry of Moses and did not bring the disaster He was going to pour out.
As I consider the humility of God, that He would not only listen to the voice of His creation, but submit Himself to it by coming in flesh, I am amazed and fall more in love Him. What are mortals that He is mindful of them? Truly the humility of God is something that angels long to look upon.
