 Dear viewer welcome again to the four days of prayer season. This is a special season for the Adventist Church Globary. We of course we as we remember we began the 10 days of prayer in the month of January now we are going through 40 days of prayer we started yesterday that of May and today 4th of May we are experiencing yet another moment with the Lord and the thought for this moment of prayer is humility seeking and turning humility seeking and turning and we shall be talking to ask God to give us you know the gift of humility and seeking to be with the Lord and turning away from our weekend ways of life that we may you know receive the revival that comes from the Lord now the text that is guiding us this day is the book of our second chronicles chapter 7 and verse number 14 second chronicles in chapter 7 verse number 14 this is a powerful text a memory verse for so many of the Adventist members and those who seek the Lord in prayer but I want to read one more time in a hearing from the book of second chronicles chapter 7 verse number 14 if my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land I read one more time a second chronicles chapter 7 verse 14 says if my people which are called by my name shall humble and this where we pick the first word remember that the topic for this day is humility seeking and turning so where do you get this from so the Bible says if my people which are called by my name shall number one humble themselves and pray and number two and seek so we are seeking seek my face and we're here to seek the face of God and number three and turn from their weekend ways when you seek the face of the Lord you will laugh then that face of God the glory that comes from the the face of God the presence of God we automatically cause you to turn away from your sin and seek him and experience a renewal in your life now this is where we are today and want to thank you and to invite you let's pray as we begin gracious Father we thank you for the privilege of the 40 days of prayer day two humility seeking and turning speak to us Lord in Jesus' name we pray amen you see pride is the reason why sin came the text of the Bible is very clear it is when the angel Lucifer was filled with pride that is sought to exult himself above even God himself of course we know the phrase pride comes before fall and it's true even spiritual fall it is preceded by pride we have received the salvation through Christ Jesus we have been invited into his church we are members of his family we are the we are share we share the privileges and of the family and the kingdom of God we have anything and everything we needed at our disposal through Christ Jesus we have seen God blessing us and using us in various occasions and times in our lives even making us the instrument of leading other people and to salvation people have depended upon us for guidance and leading and because of these are times there is a sense of self-fulfillment and and pride sets in and you start exerting yourself and feeling better than other people self-importance that blinds our our focus and our sight on him who is on the cross now when this pride comes in us it is that bringing us down from the tree of Calvary where humidity is it brings us down where we start forgetting who God is and what he has done for us and we start focusing on ourselves now the prayer then invite us to be reminded that it is not because of the gifts we have that we serve the Lord it is because of grace that we have in Christ Jesus that we serve God and so this moment of prayer in these 40 days of prayer day two is reminding us that we need to be humble before the Lord you see pride if it's not checked it graduates to be to to arrogance and we are having many Christians today who are arrogant is spiritual arrogance spiritual arrogance is dangerous for a heart is dangerous for a Christian and until we know how to remove spiritual arrogance we will continue serving in church singing in church preaching in church doing many things for the Lord yet our hearts are dressed with spiritual arrogance and also suggest to us here today there's no way of removing spiritual arrogance and spiritual pride than prayer it is when you are at the feet of Jesus and at the moment of prayer that you are reminded of how sinful and unworthy you are it's when you discover the awesome names of the glory of God when you see his face when you experience his presence then you discover like Isaiah she man of dead leaves you and worthy to be before him not even a single thing you do that can make God smile to you it's only by his grace and so the moment of prayer brethren is a time when we are reminded of who we are in the world of sin without Christ and also reminded of our identity in Christ Jesus so then the text is here if we shall humble ourselves it is my prayer that today the second day that we may seek to humble ourselves and about you the Bible here says and seek his face that we may see him you see by beholding we become transformed what you spend time beholding that is what you become the question this day I'm asking you what are you taking and spending your time looking at where is your eyes facing or looking at is my prayer that we may all live to our eyes and see him on the cross as he's being nailed there and crying in agony and in pain just for a sin that we can say why should we continue keeping this sin when he is dying on the cross for these particular sins and we can we can just throw them to him and because he knows how to deal with sin seek his face and then turn away from our even and wicked ways that we shall be revived and reformed and so this day I'm just talking to your heart and to your life it visually personally how is your life like you see you can deceive God you could be watching this video right from your house or in your car wherever you are you can't deceive yourself you can't deceive God you know what you have done you know how your life looks like and God exactly knows even more than you are but I want to let you know you can't hide seeing and prosper spiritually but you see God is so gracious is bring them to me bring them to me bring them to me bring your sins to me and God is inviting the second day of prayer that you may bring your sins to him and he knows how to cleanse purify and qualify you to be a sinned turn away from our wicked ways that he shall heal us and so as you pray is there any sin is there any way in your life that is not in harmony with the will of God is there a practice or a habit or a behavior in your life that is in contradiction to the will of God it's this how a prayer remember it is at the feet of Jesus where that wicked woman the prostitute Magdalene found grace found forgiveness and found hope it is at this moment in this 40 days of prayer that you are supposed to find grace of God supposed to find mercy from God and supposed to be to find hope through revival from the heart of God so I invite you as I pray together with you that you may look deep in your heart and desire to move that sin like Paul would say in Hebrew chapter 12 that so easily and snares you that your path will be clear and you shall be in harmony with God let's pray gracious for the heaven we thank you so much the privilege of prayer one more time this is our second day the 4th of May in the experience of 40 days of prayer when we are talking about humility seeking and turning pride is the reason why many people are falling we have spent more time focusing on things that are not spiritual but you'd rather have us focus on Christ looking upon him that many of these things here on earth may gross tragedy and so it is by beholding you that we get transformed and this experience of 40 days of prayer is a moment with you that we may have a privilege to behold you to see you as you are to hear from you to learn from you and to get transformed by your glory Lord we are seeking to turn away from our world of sin and this moment I want to pray for my viewer that whatever challenge of seeing there could be in your grace is a fiction my father praying for forgiveness and cleansing that you shall forgive us all and accept us before you and answer our prayers there are many things you can pray for this day Lord we have a lease of seven people you're praying for Lord may you visit with those people and answer their concerns and meet them at the very point of needs we are praying for our own revive and reformation Lord please may you give us the power of the Holy Spirit we are praying for the revival of our church the Lord truly you shall outpour your Holy Spirit upon us that we shall be a people who are guided by the power from above I want to thank you for this privilege Lord as you journey through that we shall have experience and also testimonies of what you have done that sister that brother whose heart is broken whose heart is hopeless Lord may you restore their hope and peace in their life those are seeking to find Lord may you answer them and open their doors because I've said seek you shall find and knock the door shall be opened and even if you ask Lord we shall be given we know that you are able to do more than we ask of you and is in Jesus name we pray that you shall grant us or request according to the riches in glory in Jesus name we pray amen amen God bless you dear viewer please remember this is the 40 days of prayer season thank you for being part of this the second day I invite you even tomorrow and also
