Revival in America

Yesterday we had a guest pastor at church, and what he was preaching about really hit home and made a lot of sense. I know God was with him in what he was saying. 
He was talking about how there needs to be a revival in America again. The first one was in the 1700s. There was a man named Cotton Mather who prayed to God every day from 1678, until his death in 1728 for a revival in America. That is 50 years!!! 
Now he died before the revival happened, but it did happen a few years after he died. 
2 Chronicles 7:14 says: if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

I believe that this country needs a revival. Now I don't know if that will happen, or if Jesus will come back before it can happen, but I know prayer is powerful! 
Prayer is what Amerca needs right now. Not more troops or doing more things ourselves to try and get this country right again, but PRAYER.
Ask God what He wants us to do. 

We all need to humble our selves and pray for a revival. For God to heal our land again. I know He wants to hear from us. 
How can we expect Him to fix everything without us asking Him first? 
Let's all stop focusing on all the wrongs and broken things for a moment that we can't fix ourselves, and go to Him. He wants our prayer. He wants our devotion to Him. 

I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to try and pray everyday for a revival.  

Let's bring God back into America again.

One nation under God!
James 5:13-16 
Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.
 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.
