“If My people, who are called by My Name, humble themselves and pray…”
— 2 Chronicles 7:14a (NASB)
Beloved, this is the hour. The voice of the Lord calls not to the stranger but to His people — those who are called by His Name, who know His mercy, who sing His praises on Sunday but carry hidden burdens through the week. This word is for you. You can be cleansed and delivered by His love.
For many who read this, it has been weeks — even months — since your heart was truly laid bare before God. Not a whispered apology or a fleeting conviction, but deep, holy repentance — the kind that breaks the soul and heals it in the same breath. You’ve grown used to His grace, but distant from His presence. You have allowed sin to remain where surrender once dwelled. And still… He calls you, offering cleansing and deliverance through His love.
“If My people… humble themselves and pray…” (2 Chronicles 7:14a). This is not a suggestion — it is a rescue. A way back. A path of return. And today is the day.
Do not harden your heart. The Lord is near, not with wrath, but with mercy, longing to restore what sin has dulled, and offering you to be cleansed and delivered by His love. He removes your transgressions as far as the east is from the west (Psalm 103:12). He blots them out and remembers them no more (Isaiah 43:25). He is quiet in His love, resting in joy over your return (Zephaniah 3:17). He is not angry at your coming — He is rejoicing.
But you must come humbly. Lay down your defenses, your excuses, your pride. Let the Holy Spirit show you what He has longed to cleanse. Don’t delay. Don’t wait for a more convenient moment. This is the appointed time of mercy. Let nothing remain hidden. Bring it all to the foot of the cross, where every soul is made equal — where all fall short, and all can be made whole, cleansed, and delivered by His love.
You may feel unworthy. You may wonder if He’ll receive you again. Hear the truth: every word He has spoken is true. He has been faithful to every covenant, even when you were not. The cross still stands. The blood still speaks. It is enough.
So come.
Pray with your whole heart:
“Father, I come as I am — not clean, but willing. I humble myself and confess every sin You reveal. I plead the blood of Yeshua over my life. Wash me. Free me. Teach me to walk in Your truth. Grant me strength to turn from wickedness, wisdom to walk in holiness, and faith to believe you are enough. In Yeshua’s name, amen.”
Now stand. Let the shame fall off of you. Let the guilt break like chains. You are cleansed and delivered by His love. You are not who you were. You are not what you did. You are now who He calls you: forgiven, redeemed, beloved.
And now, look around. You are not alone. We are one Body, bought with one price, washed in one river of blood. There is no place for pride or comparison here. Let the Church arise in unity, not divided by judgment or spiritual arrogance, but joined in humble worship and truth.
As it is written, “There is one body and one Spirit… one Lord, one faith, one baptism”(Ephesians 4:4–5). Let us walk together, fully alive, fully clean, and fully His.
Today is the day. Return to the Lord. Be cleansed. Be delivered. Be restored by His love.

How long I walked with sin inside,
With quiet lips and lifted pride.
But mercy called, and I fell low—
And found a love I did not know.
Now free I stand, my heart made new,
And walk with saints, in robe and truth.
