The book of 2 Chronicles is not one we often turn to when we are looking for the Promises of God, yet it contains one of the most well known passages in the Bible. These words are as appropiate in today's world as they were when they were written. The contain a wonderful promise, as well as a poignent reminder for us to follow God's ways.
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. 15 My eyes will be open and my ears attentive to every prayer made in this place. 16 For
I have chosen this Temple and set it apart to be holy—a place where my
name will be honored forever. I will always watch over it, for it is
dear to my heart. - 2 Chronicles 7:14-16
I am not sure if you have noticed that last line before? Read it again - it is wonderful!
I will always watch over it, for it is
dear to my heart.
God says that we are dear to his heart! That is something to cherish today. Believe it and be blessed by it!
