Humble Prayer

IF MY PEOPLE WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES AND CALL ON MY NAME...
In times past, it often took the Jewish nation to be in great trouble before they would call on the name of the Lord. Case in point would be when they were running from the Egyptians and were surrounded on all sides. Then as you remember, the Lord opened the sea and they crossed over on dry land. Other times too numerous to name, saw the people in a really tight spot that they could not get out of themselves before they would humble themselves and call on the name of God.
Today, now that we are more enlightened, the contemporary thought seems to be that we don't need God...if in fact he even exists..
That said, with the forest fires eating up our land in the West, the floods from Harvey covering the South and now a category 5 storm threatening the the South East coast, not to mention the the political unrest here and abroad, perhaps this may be the hand of God using these natural and  man made events  to bring a stiff necked people to their knees...to humble themselves, together, in one voice, in mass as a whole group of people praying..... as one nation under God.
