I don't know who needs to hear this, but 2 Chronicles 7:14 ("If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.") is not about America.
God was speaking to covenant Israel under the Old Covenant, not modern nations thousands of years later. Christians should stop treating this verse like a patriotic slogan for national revival.
That does not mean the principle is meaningless. God still calls His people to humility, repentance, prayer, and holiness. But the Church is not called to "take back" a physical nation through political nostalgia. We are called to proclaim Christ, preach the Gospel, make disciples, and live as holy people in the midst of a fallen world.

Many (especially me) need to hear this. Thank you sir.

The Christian is simultaneously saint and sinner (simul justus et peccator). In Christ, fully justified and counted righteous before God. In the flesh, still battling sin daily. We are not saved because we became sinless, but because Jesus Christ remained perfectly righteous in our place. Romans 7:24-25.

Good morning, brothers and sisters. Stand firm in Christ today.
The world is loud, dark, hostile, confused, and constantly shifting, but the Word of God has not changed. Christ is still on His throne. The Gospel is still true. The Spirit of God still strengthens weak men and women for obedience.
So be strong and courageous today. Speak the truth without fear. Love holiness more than comfort. Refuse compromise. Kill sin. Open your Bible and feast on spiritual nourishment. Pray like eternity matters. And do not grow weary in doing good, because your labor in the Lord is never in vain.
"Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong."
- 1 Corinthians 16:13

Marianne, Jesus Himself said to the repentant thief on the cross, "Today you will be with Me in Paradise" (Luke 23:43). Paul said in Philippians 1:23 that he desired "to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better." In 2 Corinthians 5:6-8, Paul teaches that to be "away from the body" is to be "at home with the Lord." That language makes no sense if believers simply cease conscious existence until the resurrection. In Revelation 6:9-11, the souls of martyrs are seen consciously speaking to God before the final resurrection and judgment. Even Moses and Elijah appeared and spoke with Christ at the Transfiguration long before the resurrection day (Matthew 17:1-3). Scripture consistently presents believers as consciously alive with God after death.
The verses about "the dead know nothing" in Ecclesiastes must be understood in context. Ecclesiastes often speaks from the perspective of life "under the sun," meaning from an earthly human viewpoint. The dead no longer participate in earthly life, work, or activity. But that is not teaching soul extinction or unconsciousness, which as you can see, contradict the clear teaching of Scripture above.
A HUGE point many people miss is that Jesus directly refuted the idea that God's people cease existing when He said, "He is not God of the dead, but of the living" (Mark 12:27), referring to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob centuries after their deaths.
The biblical picture is this: when a believer dies, the soul goes immediately into the presence of Christ, and when Christ returns, the body will be raised and glorified. Both truths belong together.

“I will forgive their iniquities and I will remember their sins no more.”
The sin you can’t forget, your Father can’t “remember”, and you have been washed as white as the driven snow, dear sister.
To speak frankly with you, in the most important sense, all of us have killed Someone… it was my sin that put Him on that tree.
And it was on that tree that he cried out for YOU and ME, “Father, forgive them” and then he died to answer his own prayer.
