2 Chronicles 7:12–22 What can we do for our country? We can pay taxes, vote, and obey the laws. These are worthwhile contributions, but there must be something deeper. Cancerous sin is spreading through our nation's vital organs.

The soul of a nation is only as healthy as the soul of each citizen. How can keep our nation from collapsing from within? In this special message for the United States, Pastor Chuck Swindoll draws from 2 Chronicles to prescribe four remedies—humble ourselves, pray, seek God's face, and turn from sin. These are the essentials to help our nation survive . . . and thrive.
