God's Plea for Kenya
This morning as I was reading the book of Jeremiah I realized it was full of warnings to the people of Israel. There were certain things that Israel did that God was angry about and the reason for Him sending a disaster. Those things are similar to what is going on in Kenya right now. It is better as Kenyans to know what do we do that makes GOD angry enough to send a disaster, so that we may turn away from them, pray and repent.

- We have abandoned God, offered sacrifices to other gods, have made idols and worshipped them(i.e from fortune tellers, witch doctors, witches etc)- Jeremiah 1:16
- Both great and make money dishonestly (corruption, lying, deceiving, false scales etc)- Jeremiah 6:13a
- We have rejected God's authority and refused to obey Him and Worship Him (Jeremiah 3:20)
- Prophets and priests (ministers) cheat God's people- Jeremiah 6:13b
- We have rejected God's way (Jeremiah 6:16)
- No one has been sorry for his/her wickedness- Jeremiah 6:13b
- Dishonest stewards have changed the law (for their own benefit)- Jeremiah 8:8
- The wise have fallen into the trap of evil and rejected God's Word - Jeremiah 8:9
- We have rejected God's servants whom He has sent to us, became stubborn and rebellious - Jeremiah 7:25-26
- We do one evil after the other without stopping (Jeremiah 9:3b)
- We have abandoned the teaching God gave us- Jeremiah 9:13
- We are deceitful to our brothers and sisters- Jeremiah 9:4b
- We slander our friends- Jeremiah 9:4c
- We mislead our friends and we don't tell the truth (Jeremiah 9:5)
But the good news!!! God is ready to forgive us and bless us if we turn back to him.
"If my people who are called by my name will 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"- 2 Chronicles 7:14
