When we are experiencing physical difficulties such as sickness or limitations, we often consult a doctor to see if we can be healed. Read 2 Chronicles 7:14. When we experience relationship difficulties, we can see a counselor or outside help to find healing in our relationship. After Solomon built the Temple of God in Jerusalem, God said that we could go to the Temple to humble ourselves and ask God to forgive us. A place of worship is a good place to ask God to forgive us, but we can ask for forgiveness anytime or anywhere. Admitting our mistakes and failures is the way to maintain a right relationship with God. In response, God promises to heal the broken relationship, our broken hearts, and in the land we live. God forgives us and we are healed spiritually. We are free to live in the joy of a restored relationship.



Holy God, we humble ourselves today and seek your forgiveness. Restore us into a right relationship with you and heal our land. Amen.
