Let It Grow: The Solution...

Now that have found out the problem and what the problem is at length, we can now turn to the solution to the problem. The solution isn't something I came up with or a formula that is around, but the solution is found in the Bible. The Bible says, 14 If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:17. Therefore say to them [the Jews of this day], Thus says the Lord of hosts: Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts, and I will return to you; it is the utterance of the Lord of hosts. Zechariah 1:3. Come close to God and He will come close to you. [Recognize that you are] sinners, get your soiled hands clean; [realize that you have been disloyal] wavering individuals with divided interests, and purify your hearts [of your spiritual adultery] James 4:8.

Are you starting to see a pattern, to bring it home I will share one more verse? This isn't me speaking but God. 19 So repent (change your mind and purpose); turn around and return [to God], that your sins may be erased (blotted out, wiped clean), that times of refreshing (of recovering from the effects of heat, of [a]reviving with fresh air) may come from the presence of the Lord; Acts 3:19. The answer is simple that we need to turn from what we are doing and worship God. Because what we are seeking and doing isn't working. Just the like the song Let It Grow says, It seems like trees might be worth a try, so why not give God a try. What do the people who say no and want to seek anything other than God have to lose.? The answer is they know we Christians are right, and they don't want to admit that are wrong. We are the winning side, and they know it and don't want to admit they are on the wrong side. 

Whatever it is that keeps them from doing this and wanting to do this, the answer is clear we need to turn from our evil ways and seek God. the Pattern of people turning from God and then turning to God is throughout the Old Testament. the part that we are not doing is the second part and that is turning to God and away from our sins. When a car doesn't work, we fix it, why not fix what is broken with God. There is a sticker I hate and that is God bless America. It is a nice sediment but if we do not bless God first how do we expect God To bless us. This can also, apply to the world as well.

To sum up all for today I will let the Bible speak for itself. 19 So repent (change your mind and purpose); turn around and return [to God], that your sins may be erased (blotted out, wiped clean), that times of refreshing (of recovering from the effects of heat, of [a]reviving with fresh air) may come from the presence of the Lord; Acts 3:19.
